01 - "An Unusual Situation"

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[And on the plane, a cat. A black cat, of noble size--about as big as a Maine Coon, with a thick ruff around his neck like a chocolate-colored lion's mane. One of his paws is matted with blood, and he looks a bit rumpled, but he settles himself with dignity, shoulders squared and paws braced in a sort of show-cat stance.]

I would call this, 'an unusual situation'. [He has a posh British accent, and seems to weigh each word carefully as it comes out of his mouth. He pauses to contemplate, tucking his tail in close around his paws. After a long moment he speaks again.]

Yes. I would call it that.

[Oh, hey. Another talking kitty. Ianto would be crouching down and holding out a hand.]

Unusual is one word for it.

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Briefly startled. He resettles himself and sniffs at Ianto's fingers politely.] I am--you must forgive me--I am not used to owners paying enough attention to answer with any... how do I say this? Real sense.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Same with us and cats, really. Where I'm from you usually just meow at us. [Chin scratch.]

[ADSFGSDFDFGSFGH It's a different cat! They said there is only one!! So have a bewildered frog stare at you. :|b]

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Have an equally bewildered Ragnar staring at you.] I beg your pardon.

[........ inches closer] Another cat, gero...?

[lamb_of_gold]

[SUP KITTY?!] Oh my.

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Yes, this is a rather startling place, if I do say so.

[lamb_of_gold]

It's hardly the location that surprises me as much you, sir. Do you, perhaps know one named Cypher?

[ More talking kitties! Nanoha squats down and holds out a hand to the cat. ] Hello, my name is Nanoha. Are you one of Cy-chan's friends?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Cy...chan? I do know a Cy, yes. She is, that is, rather small? And tabby? [Delicate nose-dab at your fingers, Nanoha. ALL THESE PEOPLE TALKING TO HIM.]

[starlightbreak.livejournal.com]

[ Tentative little pet ] That sounds like Cy-chan. She talks a bit funny, too. She likes to rhyme and calls me Nanobot.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Probably because it is one. Hello!

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Bemused. Indeed he is.] Yes, hello. Ragnar Gustaffson Coeur de Lion, Norwegian Forest Cat, at your service.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

The Doctor, Time Lord. Good to meet you.

[Stares at him for quite awhile.]

...You...wouldn't happen to know a cat named Cy, would you?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Is she the only other cat present in this place? This has been a very frequent question.

[contract_star]

Well, she's the only cat who can... [And then he remembers what Cy said when he asked her why she could talk.] Rather, yes, she's the only other cat here.

Well, well! Another talking cat, is it? How interesting! Hello there, young sir~

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[A BIT ALARMED. But always polite. After all, the fox helped them. So perhaps not all dog-things are bad. But he fluffs himself up just the same.] Ehm, yes, good evening. Good evening. You are a talking dog, I see.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Sees (and smells) that he's nervous, so she sits down, giving him his space.] And a good evening to you, too! A dog, though? Not at all! If anything I am a wolf, I suppose~

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Another talking cat?

[Crouches down] Hello.

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Yes, you have met Cy then, as well. [Stands.] I am Ragnar Gustaffson Coeur de Lion, Grand Champion bench cat, of the breed Norsk Skogatt, which is in other terms, Norwegian Forest Cat.

[twelvemasks.livejournal.com]

... Can you read minds too?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Have a cat face of general confusion.] I should say not.
