Re: [Day 284]

[hissterics]

[ ZERO stabbings happen this time. Probably because the cat looks like she's been kicked too many times and is now huddling to prevent further injury.

She reaches out to take the bag, all the same. ]

. . . Thanks.

...no problem, dude.

[He scoots a little closer, so their shoulders brush]

S'got extra fish.

dw did NOT give me this notif

[hissterics]

[ She opens the bag and pills out the fish, nibbling on it.

. . .

Her tail flicks a little before it curls over his ankle. ]

[This time it's just a whole roasted fish on a bed of rice; it's pretty tasty. It's also fairly easy to pick up and eat, though there's a fork in there if she wants to eat it out of the tupperware]

[He waits for her to eat a little, leaning against her a bit]

[Then, quiet:]

...how you doing?

[hissterics]

[ She leans back, just slightly, ears lowered. ]

. . . I want to go home.

[crossmyheartandhope]

...you want me to take you back to Zrael?

[hissterics]

Not there -- home home.

Where I--

[ She breaks off, curling into a tighter ball ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Ah.

Sorry, dude. That one I can't help with.

[He hesitates - puts an arm around her, so he can rub her back, gentle]

Where you what?

[hissterics]

. . . Where my Adora is.

The one who won't just ditch me.

[crossmyheartandhope]

...hey.

Maybe you ain't there now, and she ain't here, but that don't mean you guys're never gonna find each other again. Right?

[hissterics]

We don't know that!

[ Her voice rises a little, distressed. ]

People have been here since the beginning and not gone home. And in the meantime I have to deal with them!

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hey. People go home a lot. Right? Bunch of Baritones just went home recently. You dunno, you could be next in line.

And, like... you don't gotta hang out with them if you don't wanna. The city's real big.

[hissterics]

That assumes they leave me alone. Instead of flaunting it in my face.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Tell em to get lost, if they're being jerks about it.
