Cat Spirit 16! [Action]

[catus_carnival]

[If there's one thing that hasn't changed about Tao, it's her love of creeping and a little bit of mischief. Today, your village derpcat is around and about everywhere. Just what is she doing?

...Did that journal page just flip open from the corner of your eye?
...That wasn't where you put those groceries last.
...That's not where you hung your clothes last either.
...Where's that thing you were just holding a second ago?

You could chalk it up to it being a windy day. But she's even in the houses. How did she get there? That's another part of Tao that didn't change either.

That's right, Tao is going around the village, misplacing ALL the things. Feel free to catch her in the act, though she'll try to be stealthy about it. Or not catch her at all.]

Meowhaha...

[Ah! There it is. He picks up his sword and holds onto it tightly, and looks around for the culprit.]

All right, who the hell touched it?!

[Of course, he doesn't look up just yet.]

[catus_carnival]

[She's not going to dignify that with an answer. Or an answer at all. That tail swishing in the leaves might draw his attention, though.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[It does! That's just the hint that he needed. He looks up at the sound of the rustling leaves and... He blinks.]

...a tail?

[catus_carnival]

[...The tail stops moving at that.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[...that is very odd. But just because it's stopped, it doesn't mean it's no longer there, so Elliot reaches up to try and grab that tail.]

[catus_carnival]

[Nope, bringing that tail closer to her body to avoid Elliot's grasp.]

Meow!

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[He immediately stops trying to reach when he hears that meow.]

A cat?

[catus_carnival]

[Poking her head out of the leaves. And then the rest of her upper body which is very much human, aside from the...paws. Paw sleeve things.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[...what the hell is he even looking at.]

You're not a cat.

[catus_carnival]

Tao is...kind of one!

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

How can you be kind of one?

[He has a soft spot for cats and he knows it... but not!cats? Hmm.]

[catus_carnival]

I dunno!

[eartwitching and tailswishing. well, it's proof that the cat part of her is well, real.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[Well. She does seem pretty cat-like. He can't deny that. What the hell, Luceti.]

You don't know what you are?

[catus_carnival]

...

Nope!

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[...okay. Right. Well.]

A-anyway! What do you think you're doing, touching my sword like that?!

[catus_carnival]

Tao was bored.

[and when she's bored, she plays tricks.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

You can't just go around doing things like that when you're bored!

[It is not very nice to play tricks, Tao. Goodness.]

[catus_carnival]

Why not?

[Nobody ever taught her. And if anyone taught her she would forget in 5 seconds anyway.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

Because it's rude! What if you had taken something really important? [And she had. She had taken his precious sword.] Be more respectful of others!

[catus_carnival]

But Tao would give it back!

...Fine.

[it's the tone of someone who's probably just going to do it again.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[He recognizes that tone. And he huffs.]

Just forget about it! And never touch my sword again!

[...and there goes Elliot Nightray. Storming off. :c]
