There are some nights in spring where it's warm, and there's just enough of a breeze to warrant long sleeves (and perhaps a stolen white shirt on the comfortable side of threadbare), and when it might be a little cold but it's impossible to resist the lure of bare feet on the lake shore with the grass in your toes and stars in the sky

*There's a clump of mint-looking plants just on the other side of a small inlet on the lake. It smell kind of nice, and makes on feel slightly sleepy.*

*It has the opposite effect on cats, sadly.*

*Something white tries to pounce Kaylee's feet, but misses and goes tumbling. It is purring rather loudly.*

[gonna_live]

Kaylee blinks.

"...Buckley?"

[mogget_cat]

*He tries to get back on his feet, to no avail. He's still purring madly, like he is the happiest he has ever been. There are kittyfeet flailing in the air.*

[gonna_live]

Kaylee crouches. "Now I wonder what you've been up to."

[mogget_cat]

*There are some crushes leaves in his fur, smelling strongly. He flails at her, his paws going every which way. His eyes may be somewhat glazed.*

[gonna_live]

:O, says Kaylee.

"...did you get into somethin'?" Carefully, she reaches for one of the leaves.

[mogget_cat]

*Her hand is bumped with a kitty head seeking something to purr against, dazedly. Sooooo verrrreh happppy.*

*Whoops, fell over.*

[gonna_live]

Kaylee giggles, despite herself.

Because it's funny.

"...maybe you ought to stay out of the plants."

Yes, there is head-scritching.

[mogget_cat]

*There is mad purring, with Buckley blinking his dazed green eyes up at Kaylee.*

*He didn't know they were blooming! The demonbunny ran right past it while Yrael was chasing the bunny. Totally not Yrael's fault. Right.*

*He tries to catch Kaylee's hand with his forepaws. He may be seeing two of them, for he keeps missing.*

It is a good thing, therefore, that Kaylee politely keeps her hand still.

"No biting," she admonishes him, grinning. "Or scratchin'. It's not polite."

[mogget_cat]

*He catches her hand after a few failed attempts, and holds it close to nuzzle and purr against. Some of her fingers get licked. Mmm, human.*

[gonna_live]

Kaylee beams down at him.

After a moment:

"You know, I never understood why cat tongues were so rough."

[mogget_cat]

*They are good for cleaning, of course.*

*Kaylee's hand needs cleaning, but not for long.*

*There is snuggling and purring, too.*

Wistful: "Wish captain'd okay a cat on board."

[mogget_cat]

*It would practically pay for its own upkeep! It'd kill mice that might chew the wiring and then leave them on Jayne's pillow, and would help avert possible infestations of horrifying space monkeys. Yes.*

*The kitty purrs against her hand, sleepily.*

"But seein' as we're gonna be gettin' a tiny person here in a couple months...only one somethin' underfoot would go down, I think. And ain't like we can get Zoe and Wash to take it back."
