[straying]

Quick word of advice: be careful! No, I mean it. I don't want to hear any of that tough guy [her voice drops an octave as she imitates some gruff bravado] 'I've got it covered' or something silly like 'You're overreacting!' [she snickers] Better safe than sorry, ladies and gents.

Oh! But that's not what I wanted to take care of here. I thought it'd be about time I took care of this so... [A soft mew comes from somewhere offscreen and Saya laughs. Then standing up from the couch and when she sits back down, she has this cutie in her lap.] Say hi!

[Saya seems to be amused as she gently takes one of the kitten's paws in hand and waves towards the camera of the SFC.]

Motz, Vatheon. Vatheon, meet [INHALE] Matthew Obi Train Zen. Or Motz for short! Don't let the names fool you, she's much better behaved than any of them.

[Sticking her tongue out playfully- obviously directed at the aforementioned dudes. Snickering a bit, she seems quite content.]

So if you drop by the apartment, don't be surprised to see her. Or maybe come by with the intention of seeing her- she's a good girl, promise! Though I'm not about to say no to any help taking care of her, either. Shirayuki's got my back, but I've never had a pet before... [A thoughtful pause and tilt of her head, was there anything else...]

Hm, I guess I should wrap this up now. [Sobering up a bit, she smiles again.] Everyone, make sure you take care. I could name a few people that I'm especially concerned about, but... you know who you are. Call me if any problems arise. See you all later.

[a salute and the feed ends with a click!]

[OOC: For redcloakedthief countrybeloved ninjaservant sweepered, feel free to tag in with action! But know that when you do, Saya and Shirayuki will tag you back seperately. o/]

[Action Forever] I STILL LOVE YOU

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[... snerk.]

Even though it took you forever to realize, I still appreciate the compliment. You have your moments too, spy boy.

[Snickering and moving over on the couch as an invitation for him to sit.]

OH GOOD. <3

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[...He takes a seat, shaking his head.]

So you named her Motz, huh? It isn't the strangest name I've heard.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[A shrug and she absently pets the kitty in her lap. Though it looks like Motz has other plans as she climbs over to Matthew.]

I'm sure you've heard your fair share. But I think Motz is easily the cutest of all strange name holders.

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[He pets the cat, being rather fond of them himself, scratching her behind the ears.]

You're probably right when it comes to that, although Nils was rather like a puppy himself.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[.... Awww, they're getting along! Motz purrs happily and Saya laughs a bit. So cuuuuuute!]

Nils? I think I heard that name before...

[Pulling out her SFC, as if occupied with today's broadcasts and letting Matthew play with Motz.]

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[Petting the kitty~]

He was here for a short time before he disappeared.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Aahhh, that would explain it. And now Rebecca left too. A lone wolf again, Matthew?

[Twiiiiisting to face him, SFC still in hand...]

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

It isn't that different from home, you know, Saya.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Sure it is. Plenty different.

[Though she's not about to elaborate and- a little click! coming from the SFC.]

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[He heard that. A frown.]

What did you do?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[Stashing the SFC away with a grin.]

Preserved a memory?

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[Arched eyebrow. Yes, he knows what that means. Did we mention what Naoya's birthday present was--.]

You have the strangest priorities.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[She just laughs in response.]

Not a priority. More of a whim.

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

You have odd whims, too, but at least that fits the idea of a cat.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Good to know I remain true to my favorite animal?

[Reaching over to pet Motz. What a spoiled kitty.]

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[A grin.]

So you do have loyalty! I was wondering what you were loyal to.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Besides me, myself, and I....?

My way of life, good food, and trying to help people. I think they count.

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[He considers this.]

Loyalty to an entire group of people, rather than a particular country or fiefdom. Yes, that sounds about fitting for you.

[Pet pet pet the kitten~]

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

You say that like you know me so well!

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[A thoughtful pause--he provides his fingers as a toy for the kitten, dragging them along the couch and watching her pounce for them, retrieving them just in time.]

Hmm. I'd say I do. Granted, there are a few things I don't know about you, but for the most part...

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[A pause and she simply watches him play with Motz for a while, considering her answer.]

.... Yeah well, likewise.

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

[He's silent, then, playing with the cat still, as if it takes all of his concentration.

He is curious...but he's not going to ask.]

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[... she's not sure if she wants to leave it like that so she'll take a chance.]

We haven't played the question game in a while.

[redcloakedthief.livejournal.com]

...We haven't.

[A tilt of his head, and--

Well. He trusts her. So.]

Ladies first?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[Let's see, they've covered acquaintances, friends, lords, romantic interest...]

Relatives?

[No specifics. She knows very well not to make assumptions here.]
