Cat Spirit 10! [Action]

[catus_carnival]

[Taokaka was used to waking up in random places, but not cold, snowy random places with nobody she knew around her and unfamiliar houses and surroundings. Jubei wasn't here. Torakaka wasn't here. It was scaring her more and more. Hell, she'd even take the "white, blockheaded looking person" at this point. Waking up on a tree branch wasn't ideal

[What in the world is a Kaka kitten doing up the tree in the front yard. Litchi stops, adjusting his her glasses just to be sure she's seeing this right.

This experiment. Seriously.]

...Tao? Is that you?

[tinykaka]

[clinging to the branch still ;;]

How do you know Tao? Do I know you, meow?

[guychi]

[:C That should not be half as heartbreaking as it is.]

Tao, it's me. Litchi.

[tinykaka]

Tao's never heard that name before, meow. Tao only knows the other Kakas and Torakaka and cat person.

[guychi]

[...Totally heartbreaking. Still, she manages to force a smile.]

Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to confuse you. I'm a friend of the Kaka clan.

[tinykaka]

[;_; sorry litchi]

So you know the elder and Torakaka and cat person too, meow?

[guychi]

I do. Although I have to say, I don't know your cat person very well compared to the others.

[Bemused look.] Do you need some help getting down?

[tinykaka]

...

[looks down.]

...Uh-huh. But I don't wanna jump! The things on the ground might eat me!

[guychi]

[Wry smile.] Nothing is going to eat you, I promise.

Besides, I can always catch you if you jump.

[tinykaka]

[...inching over the side of the branch. Cautiously. Veeeeery carefully.]

[guychi]

[Geez. Tao being cautious. This is insanity. Litchi knows how to lure her down, though.]

I'll give you some meat buns if you come down~

[tinykaka]

Meatbuns!

[/JUMPS]

Wah!

[guychi]

[/CATCHES]

There. You're down safe now! [And cradled against a very non-squishy chest, but oh well. She smiles at the kitten.] You must be hungry.

[tinykaka]

Meow...where is Tao neow? This isn't the village.

[guychi]

This place is called Luceti. It's... sort of like a vacation away from Kagutsuchi. [To word it in an almost perversely optimistic way.]

[tinykaka]

Kagu...Kana...

...

Is that near our village, meow?
