018: ASSORTED

[intheblanks]

VIDEO;

[A charming domestic scene. Chase's dimly lit bedroom, too-early morning light filtering through the curtains. Watch as the good doctor wakes up, gets out of bed, drags a comb across his head, makes for the door and trips over the cat.

From its spot on the bookcase, Chase's device spools out video of the animal, a small but energetic creature, hopping up onto the edge of the bed and chirping, while someone groans, out of sight.

When Chase stands, swimming back up into view, he's pushing his hands through his hair again. Or trying. Accessory to the boxer shorts and pillow creased face, a fine pair of tabby kitty ears now protrude through mussed blond. Frowning, Chase traces the outline of one as he notices the small record light not too far in front of him, and reaches to switch off the video with what's either a growl or a purr.]



>Clinic Duty;
[Even neko-doctors have to earn a buck. The ears are making life surprisingly difficult around the hospital: he can't get his surgical cap over them, or operate when he's at risk of shedding on the patient - at least the pussy jokes never get old. Care to make another?]

>Coffee Break;
[Apparently breeding season has the squirrels on their guard. By the time Chase has made it under a line of trees he's sporting tall red ears, indignantly pricked.]

>Home Again, Home again;
[If he'd had more time to think about it while trying to detach its jaws from his arm, he'd swear that dog had a touch of wolf in it. If he could see his ears now, wide, silver grey, he'd know for sure.]


{ooc- (Not!Awesome Powers): Chase has the involuntary ability to manifest the ears (and a few select traits) of whatever animal he touches. Placeholder-y as I am not!well tonight.}

Cuuuute! How'd you do that?

[No response until he's at least got his shirt on.]

No idea.

[The question is: how does he stop it?]

[sixwinged]

Well, it could be worse!

[Carla and Rex will just be over here watching your chew-toy impersonation, Chase.]

...Having fun?

woof woof

[intheblanks]

[Thank you for the help, Carla. He's shaking dog slobber off his sleeve when he makes it over to where she's standing, keeping a wary eye on whatever-it-is she keeps as a pet.]

Yes. I've always thought I had one too many arms.

[Rex would very much like to snuff you, blonde doctor, but Carla tells him to sit, and while he does so, his back legs are splayed in a rather undignified manner beneath him. He is still looking up at Chase eagerly, tongue lolling out one side of his mouth.]

I could staple it back on for you.

Thank you.

It could be worse.

You might've grown tentacles or gills.

Action:

[Saya isn't paying attention when he gets to the warehouse; she's got a liver (cow) in the blender going at full speed]

Action:

[intheblanks]

[And he can smell it, across the warehouse, through closed doors. He works with livers: usually the light touch of urea isn't an appetising feature. He can't smell her, which is strange - only because in the last couple of hours he's been able to smell everyone - and wanted to smell everyone. Here there's not even the trace of her.

But forget that. The liver smells incredible. Better get there quick before it's gone.]

Action:

[synanthrope]

[Suddenly, there it is, over the tangy bloody irony smell of blood - the smell of wolf, musky and pungent and filling Saya's nose in a way that isn't appealing.

The response - a release of scentless fear pheromones - is automatic before she turns to see who it is that smells like wolf. She releases it in thick clouds as she spins]

Is this a curse or have you just been holding out on everyone?

[intheblanks]

You can consider it payment. You showed me yours, I've shown you mine.

[bedsidemanners]

Somehow I doubt that. I suppose it'd be a nice enough parlor trick.

[sealegs]

Did you always have those?

[intheblanks]

[He's still sitting on the edge of the bed when he flicks the device on to see whether or not the recording can be deleted, and. Oh.]

That depends. Which answer would you find disappointing?

[orangetoughguy]

Yeah that's not kinky at all.

[intheblanks]

And that's more than I want to know about your proclivities, thanks.

[thenormalsquint]

Somewhere, there is a cosplayer seething with envy.

[intheblanks]

[This look is blank in so many ways.]

A what?

[sympathyforme]

Not what I meant by wanting to get some pussy, but cute.

[intheblanks]

What do they say about wishes? Careful on the wording.

[dr_conscience]

Well, those are darling.

[intheblanks]

Well as long as you still find me adorable I think I can get through the day.
