[Here is one Rita, glancing off to the side of the camera defensively.]

Okay, if--if nobody comes and picks them up, I'm not keeping them all.

[A slight blurring of the video as the camera rotates, and the picture focuses on no fewer than half a dozen cats lounging in various spaces in the study.

Yeah, guess who was busy during that robbing curse. Eyes is nowhere to be seen...because he's out of sight of the device, comfortably situated in Rita's lap.]

[ooc: If your character owns a cat, feel free to have theirs be part of Rita's haul!]

...He was about the same, I guess. [Nope, never. Though they'd be the only ones she has, so it's just weird.]

[stargathering]

I really don't think he was cursed, then... [ Oh yeah, she has nothing to compare to. ...Tyr was probably a decent father. ]

[blastiafreak]

...So he just doesn't like guys, is that it? [Probably! They got along during the curse, anyway...]

[stargathering]

...I guess. I don't know any other trend. Kanone and I aren't that alike... [ Yeah! ...I bet Rita was a rebellious child, though, and Tyr scolded her a lot. ]

[blastiafreak]

Yeah, that guy's just a pain! [And Tyr isn't! She was probably was...Just taking after him!]

[stargathering]

I'm surprised you even got along with him... [ And he wonders how Katara feels about the curse now. ...It's only appropriate. :3 ]

[blastiafreak]

Ugh, don't even remind me! [The whole thing's just awkward...]

[stargathering]

All right-- [ Though now he wonders ] ...What sort of relationship do you two actually have, anyway?

[blastiafreak]

We don't have any relationship.

[stargathering]

You didn't even know each other before that?

[blastiafreak]

Not really. [So what if they argued several times before that?]

[stargathering]

...It's probably better that way. [ He just plain believes they barely knew each other. ]

[blastiafreak]

I'd rather it stayed that way. [It's true that she knows barely anything about him, anyway.] So how well do you know him?

[stargathering]

I've known him since he arrived, but... [ His face twists a bit for just a moment - partially from uncertainty and partially from bad memories - before relaxing again. ] He's not exactly an open book...

[blastiafreak]

[She's not sure what to make of that expression--ends up passing it off as frustration, maybe.] Not very much, then.

[stargathering]

...Not too much, no.

--But I know he really needs a better cat to keep him company. One that's not a pain.

1/2

[blastiafreak]

I don't know...I like the one he already--I mean, there's nothing really wrong with that one-

[blastiafreak]

Wait. Don't tell me you came to get a cat for him, did you?

[stargathering]

I did. Are you going to turn me away for that? Maybe he'll let you keep Eyes if I give him another one...

[blastiafreak]

D-don't be stupid--I'm not going to turn you away because of that! [Nope, it has nothing to do with Eyes, nothing at all-]

[stargathering]

You didn't sound excited about it, but... You really want to get rid of them that much, Kanone might take them all. [ Totally not about Eyes. ]

[blastiafreak]

I was just surprised you'd give one to someone you hardly know. He didn't care about any of them except for Eyes, anyway.

[stargathering]

It's not that I hardly know him, just... [ trailing off. Subject change! ]

Did you try to give him another with Eyes? [ Tyr doesn't want to add another adorable cat to his own apartment if this fails. ]

[blastiafreak]

[Subject change goes unnoticed!] No, but...He wasn't exactly in a mood for suggestions.

[stargathering]

[ Tyr would have just surprised Kanone, but now he's imagining this. ] ...I bet. His attachment to Eyes is... [ ...yeeeeah. ]
