Return from Oz

[Cy poofs onto the plane, licking energetically at... a fish. Yes. She is eating a fish. Not linoleum, not cigarette butts, not even the perennial favorite--bicycle spokes. She is eating a fish.

There's something strange about her, beyond the fact that she's cleaner than she's ever been in her life, white bib fairly glowing with good health. She's clumsier than usual, maybe, but what's really off is her head; the shape is different, somehow.

That would be because her spark plug is gone. There's no little bronze bump poking through her fur. There's no bald patch, no scar, no indentation to show where it was; it's simply and completely gone. She starts purring enormously and sinks her teeth into the fish.]

contract_star: (had a hard day)

[Takes him a second.] O-oh...well I'm...I'm glad to hear it, Cy.
contract_star: (maybe someday)
