(no subject)
Data is in the bar with his cat today, occupying one of the booths. Spot is standing on the table with his face in a bowl of (apparently delicious) cat food, next to which is a datapad that his owner is currently studying.
The datapad is rather unnecessary, actually; the information that Data is accessing could be retrieved just as easily from his own systems. What he hopes to gain by having it in front of him is anybody's guess.
After several minutes spent studying the PADD, Data sets it down. He picks up his cat, interrupting the feline's meal to ask him a rather odd question: "Do you love me, Spot?" The cat mews, looking at Data rather quizzically. The android studies the feline's face with furrowed eyebrows, looking for any indication of a response to his question. After a moment, though, he shrugs and pulls Spot closer in order to pet him. Spot stretches towards his food once, but does not seem to mind too terribly when he determines that he can no longer reach it. Instead he settles comfortably into his owner's arms, as if indicating that he would prefer to be petted now.
Data's eyes return to the datapad and remain there. He does not seem to be concentrating on it very hard, however-he probably would not mind conversation.
[OOC: Open 'til it scrolls. Again, feel free to ping me if we have an old thread that you'd like to continue. ^_^]
