[molly is post-work, white lab coat still on despite the sweltering august heat in florida. she has an iced coffee in one hand and as she speaks she drinks, but the cup never seems to empty even a bit.]

I've been away from home for more than two years now. Sometimes it's strange to think about. At first, it felt like sort of a weird hostage situation where I happened to have the same job, and even a cat. And now it's more like an extended vacation, where I still have the same job. [but vacations usually mean you aren't working, molly] The familiarity is nice.

Anyway, speaking of the cat, I think she's expecting. I knew she'd gotten out a few times, but seems like it was for more than a trot around town. I don't know when the kittens are due or how many there will be, but they'll be up for adoption once they're here. Just wanted to put the word out.

What kind of cat?

[ CATS, WILL. CATS. KITTENS. BB CATS. abigail needs one. or twelve. she's not picky rn. ]

[ecphrasis]

Lacey is an all white cat with blue eyes, but I'm not sure what her Tom looks like.

[lurings]

Do you know what kind of cat Lacey is? Ragdoll, Russian White, Van Kedisi, etc.?

[ecphrasis]

She's a British short hair.

[lurings]

[ abigail is gonna get a cat. ]

Could I... preorder one? Hold. Can I hold one?

[hands4healing]

Ummm...We might be able to take a kitten...depending on our roommate.

[ecphrasis]

You've got time to think about it. And, well, convince them.

[hands4healing]

That's good!

[Convincing Ed might be a problem, and what about America? But Al would love a kitten.]

[ecphrasis]

Just let me know!

[hands4healing]

I will, Miss Hooper!

[ It's like nothing brings Molly down. ]

Should I say "happy anniversary"?

[ecphrasis]

[she isn't good at being sad is all]

Well, that would have been a couple months ago, but I'll still take it!

[gevurah]

[ Kate personally doesn't adhere to the idea of celebrating her imprisonment in yet another universe, but she's not about to tell Molly how to celebrate or not. ]

Happy belated anniversary.

Drinks are in order.

[ecphrasis]

[any reason to celebrate is enough for her tbh]

Thank you. And I couldn't agree more. When are you free?

[bullysandwicher]

You have been two years in this hellhole?

[ecphrasis]

Well, not here specifically. I was in the City for a while before we were all ported here.

[bullysandwicher]

The city?

[ecphrasis]

I'm always surprised by how many people here don't know about it. Anyway, The City is where some of us were ported before we were brought to Heropa.

I will humbly request one kitten available for my apartment! I would absolutely love one no matter the color or size! If there is any way I can repay you, I will gladly engage in such things! [ He frantically starts to list off the things he can do. ] I am skilled in wood chopping, alchemy, body guarding, tracking, portraiture, and a bunch of other things passed down the family from Armstrong to Armstrong!

[ecphrasis]

[give her a second to
you know
process him]

Y-yeah, of course you can have one. I don't need anything in return, really. Just knowing that they'll be loved and cared for is enough.

[heartboxer]

Are you sure?! [ Armstrong's eyes start to well around the bottom with that thin, filmy substance called tears. This isn't anything unusual, he's just a crybaby. ] Please, at least let me make you a statue of yourself to commemorate your generosity! I am truly touched at such an honest and selfless request on the sake of animals you have not even met yet!

[ecphrasis]

[oh goodness]

A-a statue? No, that's--that's a little. I mean, no, thank you. I'm happy that at least one will be in a loving home.

[acclimatized]

Jesus, has it really been that long for you?

[ NOT TOUCHING THE CAT THING, there are eyes and ears everywhere..... ]

[ecphrasis]

It has. Sometimes I forget, honestly!

[acclimatized]

Easily done, I suppose. [ john is a man, therefore he forgets things like anniversaries. ] Couldn't have been easy with us coming and going all the time.
