{Cally is back on the Plane! ~~For I have more idea what to do with her than Juni~~, because sometime I promised a post with Cally and a kitten... Well, Cally is now sitting on the Plane and cradling a tiny little kitten, and since she can never shut up she is of course babbling to it!] Aren't you a cute little thing; so very cute... Y'know, you're one of the cutest ones of the litter really and you're certainly the friendliest! It's a pity you'll be stuck down that big ol' cave all your life.

[Picking the kitten up so that she can look into its face] I'd take you with me if we weren't in a boat... Or being chased by bandits; I don't think you'd like those Miss. Kitty- they might hurt you! And we certainly don't want that, 'cause that'd just be mean.

...Ah well; at least you get to spend some time out of that nasty old cave! In some nice stars too, aren't they pretty? [The kitten lets out a rather puzzled mew and she giggles; lowering it back to her lap and starting to stroke again]

[Clearly I hate Satoshi because he just strayed across That Talkative Person]

[he'll just be note that cats appear to be able to come to the Plane. Maybe if he doesn't talk, she won't notice him and try to talk to him!]

[That is a unlikely hope Satoshi, she'll be glancing up now] Oh! 'S you again, hallo... D'you like Miss. Kitty? She's very pretty; even if she does live deep down underground.

I'm not that fond of cats.

...Why? They haven't bit you have they? They're really quite sweet actually; as long as you aren't a mouse.

I don't like most animals.

[not even sure why he's talking to Cally]

What've they ever done to you?

[Because she is irresistible, obviously :|]

Nothing.

Then why on earth do you hate them then? How can you hate kittens?

I don't hate them.

You don't like 'em though.

I'm neutral towards them.

...Is it because they're alive? If so, you're very mean.

[he's beginning to just except to be completely confused by whatever she says, to the point where it's getting heavily filtered for coherence]

Their status has nothing to do with it.

[She's so very proud]

What does have something to do with it then? There must be one thing you don't like.

[he frowns, then focuses on her completely, trying to anticipate what she'll say so he can end this conversation early]

I don't care about them either way. If I see one in danger, I'll help it, but otherwise, they're not my problem.

[to be fair, Satoshi thinks the same thing about humans]

...You must be rather lonely if you always think like that; don't you ever want to bond with things?

No.

That's sad! Bonding with things is very fun.

Not really.

[a moment]

I don't have time for this. Sorry.

[he starts to walk away]

[Scrambling up and following, with the kitten making several grumpy noises] Wait! What kind of person doesn't like bonding? You'll never get anywhere if you don't like some people.
