Cat Spirit 21! [Action]

[catus_carnival]

[So Tao couldn't resist all the commotion. Curious cat is curious. So she'll be sitting outside house 48 while making her rounds on the rooftops.]

Where did all of you come from? Tao wants to know!

[And of course, she'll search for familiar faces. But not-so-familiar faces are also welcome.]

Comments

[shiningpom]

[And a not-so-familiar face comes out! It's a cute little pom that is obviously a girl pom with the little ribbon it has on her head.

Except the adorable factor is taken away a bit by that scythe she is wielding.]

[catus_carnival]

[Scythe or not, there remains one fact.

It looks tasty.

Tao wonders if it's edible, opting to stare at it before making any moves.]

[shiningpom]

[Unfortunately, she is quite edible. And supposedly a nice treat when covered in chocolate.

She's coming closer looking quite menacing with that scythe of hers.]

[catus_carnival]

[Mmmmm chocolate poms. Tao takes a swipe at Rennepom, aiming to miss but just barely.]

[shiningpom]

[And the little pom will be hopping towards Tao's feet to take a swipe at them with the scythe.]

[catus_carnival]

[Nope! She jumps up a bit, and then tries to swipe at Rennepom with her claws this time.]

[shiningpom]

[The poor little pom gets hit with claws and is now bleeding. She tries to take another swipe with the scythe to hurt the mean kitty.]

[catus_carnival]

[She blocks the scythe with her claws. Bad pom. Something sharper is coming Rennepom's way now. Namely teeth.]

[shiningpom]

[And the poor little pom gets bitten and dies.

But now Tao has another problem, another pom has appeared and this one looks even more menacing and has a sword. Come on, you so knew the Leonhardt!pom would come to get revenge.]

[catus_carnival]

[so if she beats the leonhardt pom will there be a joshua pom to cry and go berserk over it]

Another one?

[shiningpom]

[Except they didn't make a Joshua pom, but don't give the mun ideas since she totally already edited one to make a Weissmann pom and has one icon slot let.

Yes, another one. There's actually quite a few in Luceti right now, Tao. But this one is very upset at his little sister being killed. This one is much faster than the little girl pom was and is quickly at Tao's feet attacking with his sword.]

[catus_carnival]

[Oh dear. A part of her shoes is sliced, making her yelp a bit in surprise and retaliate with a large claw swipe.]

[doubledealindiva]

[Hey, Tao, have you turned around lately? You know, to look at House 48?

No?

Yeah, that's good! Keep doing that.]

[catus_carnival]

[Not quite, but her kitty senses are tingling. Enough to make the fur on her tail stand on end.]

Meow?

[doubledealindiva]

[Nah, it's just your imagination. Just your imagination. After all, no one except someone in the house could sneak up behind you, and it's not like someone could just up and off with the house, right?]

[catus_carnival]

[TOTALLY. So she will sit here, unawares, and kind of nap.




Oh dear.]

[doubledealindiva]

[AWESOME

Time for Carmen to make her escape, then! ...Yes, clearly she must have actually been present this time. She'll just walk off to find a vantage point until her victim notices something is wrong.

...Maybe steal something else. Hm...]

[catus_carnival]

[Well, the victim wakes up pretty quickly, and notices that the house is gone.

...

...

...

THE HOUSE IS GONE]

Where'd it go?!

[moezama]

[And a moment later, Kazuma shows up and reacts in a similar fashion as Tao.]

Tao! What happened to the house!?

[catus_carnival]

I don't know!

[OH GOD HOW DID THIS HAPPEN THIS ISN'T EVEN PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE]

[violinsnbobbles]

I'm from the town of Hikarizawa in Japan, a nation of Earth in early twentieth-first century. Exact version of Earth from which I hail from is unknown, but defining features are the lack of magic and of sentient races with a new set of limbs serving as wings from the Aves that should be limited to that species, instead of the Homo Sapiens Sapiens predominant in my planet and in here.

............

[Stares. You are a catgirl.]

[catus_carnival]

...

...

...You're using hard words on purpose, aren't you?

[violinsnbobbles]

.......

Hard words?

[Are there hard words for Kotomi? She puts a finger on her chin as she stops looking at Tao. Curious about her race.]

Words don't have a texture nor solidness.

[catus_carnival]

Hard like...difficult!

[oh good at least she knew what that word means by now.]

[violinsnbobbles]

Words are not difficult...

[Girl in school uniform stares. Of note to Taokaka, she is not the flatboard of Noel by a long shot.]

You are human with traits of Felis.

[catus_carnival]

And you're...

[Which she does note, and for this reason is attempting to grope her right now.]

[violinsnbobbles]

I am human. My name is Kotomi Ichinose. You spell my name with three hiragana. Call me Kotomi-chan--

[E-Ep. She retreats a little with the groping, and looks like a frightened kitten.]

Why do you want to touch me? Are you a bully, Mrs. Cat...?

[catus_carnival]

I'm not a bully!

[Aw. She stops though, satisfied with her...analysis.]

Hmmm...better than average.

[violinsnbobbles]

[She squeals a little, holding herself.]

Better than average...? [Is there better?] Average breast size in Japan is A, and I think I am above it. What do you mean with average, Mrs. Cat-chan?

[That and nobody here seems to be that average size, anyway.]

[catus_carnival]

Average like...average.

[Good with words, she is. 8|]

[violinsnbobbles]

[Thinkthinkthink... Genius at work. Finally, since every nation's average varies, she comes to a conclusion.]

For an average to be classified for this location, what is the biggest size registered in this place, what is the most common one, and what is the lowest one, Mrs. Cat-chan?

[Though she continues to look. It's an interesting creature, nonetheless.]

[catus_carnival]

Well...Tao doesn't know about the biggest one [though she wishes] but Lacking Lady is pretty lacking.

And I'm Taokaka!

[violinsnbobbles]

I am human. My name is Kotomi Ichinose. You spell my name with three hiragana. Call me Kotomi-chan when you call me.

[A brilliant thought process, that of Kotomi. But a strange one.]

Lacking lady...? How lacking is she, Taokaka-chan?

[action]

[madpuppeteer]

[ While the genetically spliced feline played along the rooftops, something came hurling towards her direction. At first it was too fast to make out but if Taokaka noticed within the last few seconds, the girl would realize it's a metallic clawed hand coming straight at her. She only has a few seconds to dodge this hasty attack but there's no doubt that a kaka could do so easily.

That's only if she can think fast on her feet. ]

[action]

[catus_carnival]

[And think fast on her feet she does, by sidestepping that attack very quickly. It's one of the only things she can think fast about anyway, and she's very fortunate to have inherited the instincts of the cat as well.]

What the-?!

[action]

[madpuppeteer]

Well done.

[ Standing upon the edge of the opposite roof was none other than the masked villain himself. He gave Taokaka's previous performance a round of applause before carefully leaping onto the same roof as her. Ignis, on the other hand, merely stood there motionlessly as he master passed by her.

The marionette was poised to strike at a moment's notice, but so far Relius had no need for her yet. ]

I must say that for an artificial life-form you're quite...agile. No less a testament to Jubei's essence within you.

[action]

[catus_carnival]

[She squints. This was a very bad person who tried to attack her...and he's talking about Jubei. This can't be good.]

What are you talking about cat person for?

[madpuppeteer]

[ Shouldn't the Kaka be doing what this song is implying here? There's no shame in fleeing but if she wants to hear this slither of information, she might have to stay around. ]

For no reason really. In truth I'm merely worried about poor Jubei's health. You see, the last time I seen him...he wasn't looking too well.

[ A vile smirk settles on his lips. ]

Then again, he was injured rather badly.

[catus_carnival]

[Every inch of her body is screaming to run away (which she might promptly do) but Jubei comes first. For the moment at least.]

Did you do something to cat person?!

[She hasn't forgotten about the prompt beating Hazama gave her, and Jubei's interventions.]

[madpuppeteer]

[ Slightly impressed that the little kitty hasn't run off yet, Relius decides to be nice for now and keep Ignis at bay. ]

Isn't that quite presumptuous of you to assume I had anything to do with Jubei's current malady?

[ He chuckles lightly. ]

I can assure you that he lives yet still but not for long. Jubei has finally reached the end of his nine lives...

[catus_carnival]

Meow!

[That's enough of that. Jubei is supposedly injured, and that takes priority over anything, including listening to some masked creeper and his robot waifu. So off she goes, on a possibly fruitless search for Jubei.]

[madpuppeteer]

[ Watching as the little kitty sped off ahead, Relius decided he would give chase just to see where she would go. He doubted that Jubei was amongst them now but if so, the puppeteer planned on finishing the job that Phantom begun. With the "One-Eyed Lotus" at his weakest state, Relius was certain that this would be a fine time to kill that rascal of a cat. ]

Follow her, Ignis.
