Fifth Blossom [Video]

[petalsofdeath]

[The feed is from the inside of Marluxia's room, on his bed. Right in the center of it, a young cat has taken residence. Not yet grown, but not a kitten either. A black-and-white Tuxedo cat, she looks up at the camera, then flops onto the sheets, having clearly decided this is its new home

It's certainly kind of you to give the poor creature a home. She really looks quite endearing. Have you given her a name yet?

[The kitty is now grooming her face, wiping a little white paw over her ear.]

I had not given it any thought. She only just followed me home. I should probably give her a bath as well...

Oh, in that case, I will have to wish you good luck. I hear that cats tend to dislike the water.

[The cat continues to lazily groom itself, seeming quite content with the center of the bedspread.]

They do not. The trick is to fill up the bathtub before bringing them in, laying down towels, and having band-aids with disinfectant ready and open.

[ ... She hasn't seen a cat sit still, so close (especially close to the camera) for a long time. As such Chane is finding herself wanting to enlarge the screen somehow, to see more of this well-behaved kitty. ]

Does she have a name?

No, not yet.

I am not very good with naming things.

[stoicloyalty]

No presupposed name on a collar, then.

[ ... ]

May I see more of her?

[Marluxia runs the feed around the cat, nudging her with his other hand to get every angle. Thinking this as play, she batted his hand back, finally leaping up to pounce on it like a mouse.]

[There was a knocking at Marluxia's door. His house mate was just in his own room, checking the network for anything interesting when he'd seen the feed.]

Hey, Marl? Can I come in?

[He wanted to see the kitten, even Ronald thought it was cute.]

[Action]

[petalsofdeath]

[He looks up from the cat at the knock.]

Certainly. The door is unlocked.

[The Assassin and the kitten are both on the bed, the latter seeming to somehow take up more real-estate.]

[Ronald pushed open the door and entered.]

I was jus' wonderin' ...

[Grinning, walking over and kneeling beside the bed, scritching a finger behind the cat's ears.]

Would I be able to use your new pet? Just take it around the city mall? See, chicks go wild for cute shit like that!

[Yes, yes that is the first thing that came to mind when he saw the kitten on the NV.]

[Marluxia regarded the Reaper with no small amusement.]

I think she would need to be given some training for that. Or a carrier, at least.
