Multi-Pup! Deity help us all.

For all that it's summer, it's still Scotlandish, and evenings are still chilly.

So Sam's sprawled out on a rug in front of the fire, spinning magic for Shreddie (who is still very much a kitten, over a year since Sam rescued him) to chase.

An eighteen-year-old Minerva is watching them; she's sitting up very straight in a comfy chair with a

There is a snore from nearby.

[necessary_child]

Sam doesn't really notice, for the moment.

KITTENSES, after all.

[guppy_sandhu]

There is a small thump as he falls off the table.

[necessary_child]

Pause.

Blink.

"Guppy, why were you sleeping on a table? There are perfectly good sofas right here."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Nnugh?"

[necessary_child]

Sam sighs, and 'suggests' to Shreddie that the kitten do something about the half asleep one.

Cue KITTEN ATTACK.

Granted, said kitten is not exactly elephant-sized. But he can do really good impressions!

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy sits up, smiling softly in a slightly dazed manner, and pets the kitten.

"Did you get my notes?"

[necessary_child]

"Notes?"

Possibly the mun should have been paying more attention to the bar of late. She claims coursework, and exams, and that whole 'real life' thing.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Will and Kate were missing, kidnapped probably by a man called Branden, Kate came back briefly with a demon in her and Will arrived back with Atton last night badly wounded but they're both stable now."

This is the condensed version.

[necessary_child]

"Atton said, though he missed out the bit with Kate."

Sam does not look a happy bunny.

"I'm going to kill him."

It's fairly clearly that Atton and 'him' are not the same person.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy gives Sam a very detailed description of what Brand looks like.

"He nearly got me too, but I caused a scene and got rescued by Antman."

[necessary_child]

Sam frowns.

"Atton missed out that bit, too."

Pause.

"Guppy, do me a favour? If I go into the cells for this, keep an eye on Atton?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"I always do."

[necessary_child]

Sam grins, a little, and ruffles Guppy's hair.

"I know."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy leans on Sam slightly.

"Don't you go disappearing too."

[necessary_child]

Sam shakes his head, but grins slightly.

"Only place I'll be disappearing to is into the cells, when I kill the nasty little bastard."
