57 - [video of feet + action]

[blackshadow]

[ The device turns on with a clatter and...purring. ]

—Hey! Cut it out-!

[ And Tyr's very annoyed voice as he tries to shoo away the two long-hair cats that are rubbing against his legs as he stands at the kitchen counter. ]

This isn't even— Sindar!

[ And a second later, another cat is plopped to the floor with the other two. ]

I don't know how Luc put up with you...

[ He finally reaches for his device to click off the feed. And probably get back to making breakfast. ]

[♥!]

[It just came easily~! Like Tyr's cooking abilities!]

I will, but the cats won't wait forever.

[negativegate]

[♥! Also I'm heading off now! Good night~]

[Yes~ Totally easy and natural!]

Like they need it when they have their own food.

[N-not that she encouraged Tyr to feed them scraps earlier or anything...]

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! Okay! Sleep well~! /o/ ]

[ Just the way things should always be... ]

Apparently cats like whatever someone else is eating... According to Eagle, anyway.

[ He won't bring that up. Yet. ]

[negativegate]

[Thaanks~ I hope you did!]

[Just the way they will~]

Hmm...I guess he's actually right about that.

[blackshadow]

[Thank you~]

[Always always, just in their sappy ways.]

What makes you agree with him now?

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[Yes~ Always obvious!]

Because they're totally nosy.

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ How does everyone not know about them!? ]

[ He laughs a little again. ] I can't argue with you there... I don't really mind that about them, though.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[Somehow it's a big mystery!?]

[Rita makes a little huff that's offset by the fact she's also smiling.] Even if they're a total pain?

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ The greatest mystery of Poly-! ]

[ Such a cat lover... ] Yeah. They're kinda cute even when they're being annoying and clinging to my legs.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[The great unknown-!]

[Nyaa~] And begging for scraps?

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ That can never be discovered-! ]

[ Meow~ ] You know they were begging for more than just scraps.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[Nobody will ever know?!]

[Purr~] Oh, right--you were supposed to give them everything, huh?

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ Not even us!! ]

[ Mew~ ] Exactly. They'd be happy if I just put the pan on the floor for them right now.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[The best-kept secret ever!!]

[:3] Ye--wait, just remember that you're saving it for me!

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ Yeah! It's amazing! ]

[ >:3 ] I remember, but Reinbach is acting really cute right now... [ Here, have the device angled down to see her! Looking up with wide eyes and definitely begging. ]

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[One of the wonders of the City?!]

[X3 The cat's really cute...not that Rita's affected or anything-!] S-so what? It's not like you'd actually give it all to her.

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ Like the singing plant in Xanadu! ]

[ :3c Just like Tyr's not affected... ] Of course not. I'd split it between her, Sindar, and Ariadne.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[nkansd sob what a thing to be compared to-!]

[Yep, they're totally immune...] There's no way.

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ WELL THE CITY DOESN'T HAVE TOO MANY WONDERS... ]

[ ...But that cute little mew Reinbach just made is making Tyr smile a little again. ] Nah, they're actually pretty good about sharing.

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[THIS IS TRUE...Are there any others? :|a]

[That mew...Rita totally didn't make a little noise in her throat or anything...] Th-then they don't need the whole thing...

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ The carousel?? ]

[ It's like she's trying to meow back, Tyr thinks. ] One plate between three adult cats is pretty fair, though...

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[The clock...and the slug ship!]

[Rita would totally never meow at a cat right...] No way. Cats are pretty small.

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ The five wonders of the City! ]

[ Even Tyr doubts that... ] That doesn't mean they don't have an appetite. [ Cat...clawing at the counter... ] How far are you, anyway?

[negativegate]

[♥!]

[Theirs is totally the best wonder huff.]

[She swears she wouldn't!!] Not far, but...

[She might start going a little faster.] They're sure getting desperate.

[blackshadow]

[ ♥! ]

[ It is!! It's nicknamed "The Tsundere Wonder". ]

[ But what if she did!?! Tyr sighs himself and leans over to bat at the cat's paws offscreen. ] Sindar was trying to take the meat right off the cutting board earlier...
