[ Hmm, maybe he got too excited. ]

If that's alright?

[recitations]

Can they fly?

[soulshard]

Wishful thinking.
No, this is a regular sort of cat as far as I can tell.

[recitations]

You already named it, didn't you

[soulshard]

No! I wouldn't have wanted to do that without conferring with you first.

[recitations]

you could have, i don't mind

as long as it doesn't end up on the desk [ In about 5 months, she will be helpless to a cat snoozing on the desk. ]

[soulshard]

Do you truly think I can control what a cat does?

I may be good with animals, but not THAT good.

[recitations]

[ Something about his indignation is making her laugh. ] Well then darling, we seem to be at an impasse

Where'd you find it?

[soulshard]

A fluxdrift relatively new to the city found him in the rain. She didn't know where to take him, so she knocked on our door by chance.

[recitations]

[ And he just took it in. Of course he just took it in. ]

And we're sure it's a cat and not a cat-adjacent monster that eats our dreams at night, or something

[soulshard]

You would probably be better fit to determine that than I would. Thus far, though, it's behaving as a normal cat would.

[recitations]

Your faith in me is touching, as always

You're certain you don't have a name for it yet?

[soulshard]

I have a few considerations, I'll admit. But you can help me decide on one once you're here.

[ He does attach a photo of the scruffy cat, though, currently on their couch. ]

[recitations]

Gods, how old is it?

[soulshard]

Quite young still, I would say. Somewhere in adolescence? Though it's unlikely he's been eating well, so it could be a tad older than we think.

[recitations]

Let me think on your shortlist of names ahead of time.

[soulshard]

Milo
Chai
Dropsy

[recitations]

is the last one because the cat was wet

[soulshard]

And found in the middle of a downpour, yes.

[recitations]

Dropsy's nice. [ Sure. They can name it after a status condition. ]

[soulshard]

Dropsy it is then.

[ It somehow doesn't surprise him that this is the one she liked most. ]
