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. ]

Comments

[blackshadow]

[ >:3 Very very much!! (Tyr hopes Rita didn't see too much... ;_;) ]

[ Ariadne is so hurt! But she easily hops off of Rita then turns around to look at her.

But Tyr doesn't care about any of that. He's just happy to get Reinbach free (who then runs off...somewhere) and hear Rita give in. ]

Finally-

[negativegate]

[X3 Then, for him...! (Even though she's seen much more?!)]

[And Rita slides off the counter, grabbing his arm to try and tug him along and totally ignoring the cats.]

Now let's get going before they follow us!

[blackshadow]

[ |3 For him, he...doesn't mind if it's intentional! (SHE DIDN'T AT THE TIME, OK!! Or...he wishes she didn't...) ]

[ Wow, so forceful. Tyr doesn't even think twice about following her along, and though he hears Ariadne jump off the counter as they walk. ]

I can just catch them and put them out again if they do.

[negativegate]

[B3 Then she'll keep it for when it's just them~! (A-AT LEAST IT DOESN'T MATTER NOW...!)]

[They had something good going-! Rita pulls him through the apartment straight to his bedroom--and Ariadne runs by her before they can get the door shut.]

Oh--then we better get on it.

[blackshadow]

[;3; It's just them, so it's okay!! (YEAH. SHE'S SEEN IT ALL...)]

[Tyr scowls when he sees Ariadne run in and then under the bed.]

You need to help, too-

[He runs from her to try to get the cat.]

[negativegate]

[*3* They can do all the flashing they want?! (EEEEVERYTHING...)]

I know! If you miss, I'll grab her.

[Rita moves to the side and follows, so that--ideally--Ariadne shouldn't escape both of them.]

[blackshadow]

[ >3< They run into rooms and just flash each other. Then leave. (MORE THAN SHE WANTED?!) ]

Right. Just be ready.

[ Tyr has a plan! He's done this before! He gets down on the floor and scratches at the floor under the bed to get Ariadne's attention, hoping that she'll fall for it-! ]

[negativegate]

['3' njkasd a very exciting relationship. (AT THE TIME....)]

[Rita stands by ready, and just watches him curiously. So he's tempting the cat...]

You think she'll fall for that?

[blackshadow]

[Always heart-racing-! (SOB. HE'S SORRY...)]

Do you have a better idea for luring her out?

[negativegate]

[Always adventurous-! (SHE DOESN'T MIND-!!)]

I-I'm not saying it's bad! Just go ahead, okay?

[blackshadow]

[Always exciting-! (IS SHE SURE?)]

I'm trying!

[But she's just sitting there in the far corner, looking at him innocently.]

[negativegate]

[Every single time!! (THE MOST SURE!)]

[And Rita will helpfully stand there and make comments! Very helpful.]

Well, try getting under there to get her out!

[blackshadow]

[ Never a dull moment!! (WELL. GOOD. HE DOESN'T WANT TO SCAR HER.) ]

[ Ugh, Rita. ]

I can't crawl and carry her at the same time.

[negativegate]

[A different design, every time!! (TH-THEY BOTH MADE IT THROUGH...)]

[...Okay, she can maybe be a bit more helpful.]

Just do it, and I'll grab her!

[blackshadow]

[ That just sounds cute! (THEY DID. SORTA.) ]

All right- Just keep an eye out for her.

[ And he crawls under, reaching out for her----

But she scrambles out for under the bed before he can even touch her. ]

[negativegate]

[Ahaha, it kind of does. |D (M-MAYBE....BUT NOW THEY CAN HANDLE IT!)]

[Rita yelps and tries to run after her, but she's not as fast as the cat and just ends up on her knees staring under the bed. Well.]

Ugh! What kind of trap was that?

[blackshadow]

[ It makes me imagine them wearing really weird underwear. (THEY CAN HANDLE ANYTHING NOW!!!!!) ]

A bad one!

[ RITA WAS SUPPOSED TO CATCH HER. Now Tyr tries to crawl back out and see where Ariadne went... ]

[negativegate]

[Tyr wears fish-print ones when he goes fishing... (NO MATTER WHAT IT IS!!)]

Then try again!

[H-huff Rita totally tried!! She scowls and looks around, finally spotting Ariadne on the dresser.]

[blackshadow]

[ Rita's have beakers on them when she decides to spend all day in the lab... (EVEN DEATH) ]

[ Ugh, Tyr hates when she's up there! He scowls when he sees her and jumps to his feet to grab her. ]

You still need to help!

[negativegate]

[Aha, yes...Or equations when she's doing research! (DEATH, GHOSTS...BRING EM ON-!)]

[Rita scowls, more at the cat than at Tyr, and shoves herself to her feet, too.]

I am helping, okay?

[blackshadow]

[ Yes~ 8D Chemical formulae when she wants to make something-! (THEY CAN TAKE IT-!) ]

Then get the door ready so I can get her out of here!

[ Lunging at Ariadne!!! ]

[negativegate]

[Perfect! Tyr can have salt and pepper shakers when he's cooking~! (ALL OF IT)]

[And Rita stomps over to the door, hand grasping the knob.]

Now just grab her!

[blackshadow]

[ Eee, yes~! And >:3 faces when he's training~ ]

[ And Tyr shows how good he is with animals but just hugging an unhappy Ariadne to his chest and trying...to get her to a more comfortable position without letting go of her. ]

There-!

[negativegate]

[omg yes, the best faces!]

Now--quick!

[Rita opens the door!!

--and Reinbach runs in.]

[blackshadow]

[ They show his true self-! ]

[ And then Ariadne squirms out of Tyr's arms and runs back in the room.

Which

more or less

makes Tyr throw up his arms. ]

Let's just use another room- we have four other ones.
