Lokiel pounced her way along the corridor, following the scent. She had woken up in a playful mood, left the drawer in which she had napped, and decided to go looking for people. Boucning over an intersection, she caught the smell of one of her favourite people. And now she was tracking him. Of course, she did keep getting distracted by the

*He has perched himself in the rafters, where he contentedly doodles on some bits of old paper he found in the library. His sword hangs with a leather ruksack on a protruding nail, and for extra light, he has placed a candle among the remenants of a bird's nest in the open mouth of a gargoyle who once stood watch over the halls but now finds itself watching dust, since the more recent rafters were put up around his bulk.*

[gorlim]

I can call her if you'd like. She'll scamper by and you can look at her from up here without worrying if she'll decide to chase you.

[black_lokiel]

[[That would be nice]] *Lokiel leaves the pastry for the moment and, licking her whiskers, pads over to the edge of the rafter and peers over.*

[gorlim]

*calls* Mandy! MAAANDY!

*a minute or two later, the lop-eared pup comes scampering around the corner. She skids to an awkward halt below the rafters and barks up at her master and the cat, wagging her tail happily*

[black_lokiel]

Mew? * Lokiel calls enquiringly down, tail waving gently.* [[She looks nice.]]

[gorlim]

Oh, she is! Very nice indeed! But sometimes she can be very... um... affectionate? I mean, if you don't mind getting a bath or having to run very fast depending on what she decides you're useful for, you can go down and say hello...

[black_lokiel]

[[I might do that. And I do run fast. I'll be careful]] *And Lokiel slinked along the rafter, bounding down the same route that she had used to come up. *

*Upon seeing the cat, Mandy gallops over to her and gives her a thorough sniffing. Slightly confused by the animal, she crouches as if in fear, then growls quietly, then touches noses with the cat, then licks her and barks, wagging her tail* ~Friendthing? Baby like-mething? No no no. Whiskerthing! Fun.~

[black_lokiel]

*Lokiel holds still throughout the inspection, head tilted on a curious cant, though tensed to dart off if threatened.* [[Friendthing. Cat-thing. Very fun. Nice furry. ]]

[gorlim]

*Grabbing his sword and bag, he swings down from the rafters and lands silently as a cat near the pair, watching them. Mandy, meanwhile, circles the cat and jumps, wanting to play*

I can grab her anytime, if she gets too rough for you, Lokiel.

[black_lokiel]

*Lokiel turns, following Mandy, purring faintly.* [[Thank you!]] *is her response to Gorlim, before she pounces forward towards Mandy with a playful yowl.*

[gorlim]

*He watches, laughing, as Mandy wrestles with the cat. She knows it's play and doesn't try to hurt the strange creature, merely growling and running in circles after the cat*

[black_lokiel]

*Lokiel is having the time of her life with Mandy. Currently, the cats interest is the tail, and she's doing her best to catch it.*

[gorlim]

*Mandy barks and chases the cat merrily until she gets tired out by the games and, having no better way to end them, leaps onto the cat, sits down on top of her, and starts cleaning her*

~Messyfriend. Rest time.~

[black_lokiel]

Wrroowl? *Lokiel utters in shock as she's pounced, sat upon and cleaned.* [[Nicefriend. Rest sounds good.]] *She purrs contentedly*

[gorlim]

Shall I leave you two to get better acquainted, then?
