004 ƸӜƷ Video
Uwai~!
[The delighted squeel is all that is heard at first, before the video switches over. There's excitement shinning in Yuuki's face, a sincere, if fanged grin as she stares, delighted, into the screen. She's nothing, if not enthusiastic, similar to a kid in a candy store. And nevermind that bit of pink food still stuck next to her mouth. Ice ( Read more... )

That's... a dog?
[ He's not seen other cats yet but. Wow. ]
Reply
Mm, I wonder if he has a little wolf in him? I can't tell, I was never good with breeds. Not that it matters.
Reply
...I wouldn't know. I haven't seen many animals like that around, back home.
[ He's eyeing him warily anyway. ]
Are you going to keep him...?
Reply
Well... if he doesn't have a home, there's a possibility.
[She notes the uncertainty, though. Thoughtful.]
You haven't seen a dog before, then? This little guy's harmless, really. Did you... want to see him? In person, I mean?
Reply
Huh? I... um. I don't...
[ He's worried about Rai, more, but- a little visit wouldn't hurt, right? ]
... is it okay? [ His ears are lifting a little hopefully. ] I was just getting some food... if you're on the way, I can come by and see.
What's your name?
Reply
Of course it is! [If he likes her she's sure he'd adore others.] I'm still in the market with the outdoor vendors, just off to the side.
[She's kind of short, so it might be that she's difficult to find. She might have the better chance of spotting him, depending on how tall he is.]
My name's Yuuki Kuran. And this guy-- well, he doesn't have a name yet. At least that I know of.
Reply
Yuuki Kuran? I'm Konoe. Are you from Ja-pan? I don't know which name I should use out of the two sometimes... what do you want to be called?
[ He's tall... kind of. Shortest out of the rest of his kitties though ;w; But then he smiles. ]
I'm here too.. ah. Hang on. I think I see you.
[ And he turns his device towards her, with her doggie, so she can see herself on the screen. When she looks up, she'll see a five foot eight catboy with black ears, holding a wrapped bag in his arm and his device, tail swaying curiously. ]
Reply
Konoe-kun, that was quick!
[The puppy runs in circles around her legs. He stops, giving a happy bark, watching as the newcomer approaches. Bending down she scoops him up into her arms, before lifting back up with a smile.]
You can just call me Yuuki. I'm not really picky with the formalities.
Reply
Though right now it's the little puppy that catches his eye and he stares at it curiously. ]
So that's a dog... is it. I've never seen one before.
[ He kneels a little to get a better look at it. ]
Does it talk?
[ His ears twitch curiously. ]
Reply
[They're pretty abundant where she comes from, as pets, at least. What kind of animals does he have in his own world? She wonders. And with a glance at his ears and tail-- Or people, for that manner. She can't help but to stare a moment.
They're really cute...]
Um... [That's right, concentrate. She thinks back to his question-- before giving a small laugh.] If you mean by a couple of barks and whines, yes! He can't speak like the two of us, though.
Reply
That's strange... so it's like the cats the humans keep. They can't talk either like we can...
[ Well, this thing looks small. So he reaches out to touch it curiously, ears flicking back and forth and listening for the sounds it's making. ]
It's so small. I wonder if its parents are around... it might think you're its mother.
Reply
Does that mean...he's part cat? I wonder what they feel like. They look incredibly soft. She tilts her head to the side, and before she knows it she's already reached out a hand to brush the tip of an ear--
It's only then that she realizes what she's doing. Blushing, her hand retreats lightening quick.]
Ahhh--! Sorry... [Pink tinges the apples of her cheeks a rosy hue.] It was just...
[How to even explain! >///< ]
Are those...real?
Reply
It takes him a moment, before he realizes what she means and he reaches up to touch his ears, before-
He smiles to himself and reaches up from where he's kneeling to touch hers. It's a brief touch, and he doesn't worry about being bold, trying to be comfortable with her. He's seen this way too many times since he got here. ]
Yours are real, aren't they?
[ He withdraws his hand and bends his head towards her, ears lifting. ]
Go ahead. Humans like touching them, I noticed...
Reply
If it's okay, then...
[Since seeing them, she's wanted to touch them, even if just for confirmation. Her hand hovers over his ears a moment, hesitating before a finger brushes the silky tip. It-- really does feel like petting a cat, so smooth and soft. She strokes the downy fur, a little warm, before her hands lower.]
Humans, you said--
[Even if, in her case, that's not exactly right.]
So...that makes you a cat person?
Reply
I thought that would make it clear..
[ His ears flick gently and he stands up straight once more, tail swaying curiously behind him. ]
I'm a Ribika. We're cats. Not... like the ones humans have. But it seems we have a lot in common.
[ He sighs, holding his bag of food properly now ]
Humans died out years ago for us, though. But... it's been interesting, meeting them here. [ He smiles a bit. ] You guys... really have no idea about us either... but we're not really all that different there, huh?
