-16 [Action post]

[fortunefail]

[A grey cat can be seen slinking into the village carefully, coming from the general direction of the forest. It's covered in various cuts and looks like it hasn't been fed properly for a while. It also seems one of its hind legs is injured, as it's moving a bit stiffly. Even at the slightest sound, its head shoots up and its clear green eyes dart around in apprehension.]


[[OOC: Well, I figured that I haven't been doing enough with Yuan lately, and it seems like our new Martel is too busy to do her introduction post. So he's a purty Russian Blue cat now, and he lost his memories. Feel free to take care of him, 'cause he hasn't been taking care of himself.]]

*Chichiri is out getting more herbs and supplies when he spies the cat, and he kneels to look at it*

Hello na no da... are you someone from this village who's changed, or are you just a cat na no da?

[kitty Yuan backs away anxiously. He's not too trusting of humans/Filial right now]

[action]

*he remains still and calm*

Poor thing, you look half starved na no da... would you like something to eat no da?

[action]

[fortunefail]

[freezes again, not quite sure what to do. His tail flicks back and forth in a sort of nervous twitch]

Have you got any food?

[action]

*he looks surprised when the cat speaks, but relaxes and smiles*

I do no da. It's back home na no da, but I can bring something outside for you if you don't want to come in no da.

[action]

[fortunefail]

... I'd like that.

[action]

[celestialwater.livejournal.com]

You're welcome to come with me na no da!

*he stands and lifts his bag of supplies, then sets off towards his apartment*

I have a friend who was recently returned by the Malnosso na no da, so I was out replenishing my herbs for tea and such.

[action]

[fortunefail]

[gets up and slowly walks after Chichiri, still keeping a careful eye on his surroundings.]

Malnosso?

[action]

[celestialwater.livejournal.com]

Yes... oh no, have you lost your memories na no da?

*looks down, worried*

[blink]

I don't know. Probably. ... I can't really remember anything that's more than two days ago.

[action]

[celestialwater.livejournal.com]

That's not good na no da.

*walks into the community building and holds the door open for the kitty, then goes to his apartment and holds the door again*

So you don't know your name na no da?

[action]

[fortunefail]

[glances into the community house with extreme suspicion, then sniffs the air and slowly makes his way inside.]

No, I don't.

[action]

[celestialwater.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to hear that na no da... well, my name is Chichiri, and my friend resting in the spare room is Watari.

*he places the herbs on the counter, then rummages around and comes up with some strips of dried beef*

How is this na no da? I think there's fish in the kitchen if you'd rather have that no da.

:(

[ kneels down a little distance from kitty!Yuan ]

Come here, little one. [ spoken softly ] I won't hurt you.

[fortunefail]

[keeps his distance, but still glances at Martel curiously]

[go-green.livejournal.com]

[ smiles, & doesn't move towards him ]

My name is Martel. What's yours?

[action]

[fortunefail]

[takes a careful step forward]

I... don't know.

[ offers him her hand to sniff ]

A name's a terrible thing to lose.

[action]

[fortunefail]

Is it?

[slowly extends his head and sniffs, before edging a bit closer again]

[go-green.livejournal.com]

I don't know. [ laughs ] They never told me.

[action]

[fortunefail]

[blinks slowly, then sits down and licks his paw]

[go-green.livejournal.com]

But you do need a name.

[action]

[fortunefail]

[stops licking and tilts his head curiously]

I do?

[go-green.livejournal.com]

I can't call you "cat".

[fortunefail]

... I don't see a problem with it.
