(=^･ω･^=)

maybe! do you have any snacks? what do you have in your cabinets??

aren't they impressive!

[breweries]

They are.
(ノ^∇^)

Come to think of it, I should get some shopping done later... Are you not at our room, Murr?

[murrvelous]

shopping...!!! for what, shylock?

i'm wandering around the sutoku areas right now! i got kicked out of the arcade because i was getting too excited...

[breweries]

Essentials. Food and whatnot.

Aren't arcades designed to make anyone excited? Maybe you have ticked off an Enma officer one too many times.

[murrvelous]

food...

[ the animal part of his brain lights up. ]

shylock, will you get me... some fruit gummies...??? they're shaped like actual fruit but don't taste anything like them!

[breweries]

Fruit gummies...? They're cheap candies, aren't they? You can buy them at anywhere, dear Murr.

[murrvelous]

true! but that just means you can also buy some.

or take me with you!

[breweries]

[ taking murr shopping............. ]

No. (◡‿◡✿)

[ nothing personal, babe. ]

[murrvelous]

well i thought i'd give it a shot!

i might go lie in one of the cat cafés in my area
they don't mind it if i lie with the youkai...
i think some of them like the company!

[breweries]

I don't doubt that you'd disguise yourself and join them if your powers were to return.

I shall pick you up on the way home, then. If you behave, there might be a treat waiting for you.

[murrvelous]

a treat?!

[ oh he's rubbing his grubby paws right now ]

okay! i will be on my best behavior! just for you!

[breweries]

Good boy. I'll see you later then.
(*σωσ）シ

[ it's funny, though, that shylock has to do groceries like a normal fucking human now who has to shop at supermarkets. but alas, he has to adapt.

it doesn't take him long to do just that, though, and at the end of the day he drops by the cat cafe that he'd visited with murr a couple of months ago, bowing at the proprietors and asking for his dear friend. akira would've commented that it's like collecting his kid from a daycare center but...! where are u catman. ]

[murrvelous]

[ he slides his phone back into his pocket. after all, he's got some time to burn before getting picked up from daycare his place of employment... or something close to it. other than working at an arcade, sometimes youkai really enjoy the affection of a wizard pretending to be a cat?

probably???

anyway. where is catman? why shylock, perhaps you should look behind you! ]

Hiya!

[ just kidding, he's actually at shylock's knees. ]

[breweries]

[ oya, he's already waiting? don't mind if shylock places a hand on murr's head to pat him. ]

Were you waiting long? I'm here.

[ gross............. gross. but the worst part is that the fellow bakeneko don't even bat an eye at this strange as fuck spectacle. ]

How did you fare while I was gone?

[murrvelous]

[ even the bakeneko find this to be a little distasteful... this wizard isn't even a cat! maybe a cat at heart, but that's not enough around here. or maybe murr is just built differently? ]

I've been great! I'm pretty sure I've done nothing wrong and everything and everyone is okay!

[ is that convincing? he does stand up and beam proudly--- with confidence!

also, this is who murr is channeling. ]

Did ya get anything interesting?

[breweries]

[ just wait till he gets his transformation powers back, the bakeneko won't ever have to question this catty wizard's motives ever again. for now, shylock will be the one to question said motives with the way he said that. ]

I have the gummies as you requested. However...

[ he turns to the proprietor of the ship with That Smile on his face. ]

Hello, did my old friend behave well while he's here?

some night in may.

[medicative]

Do you ever actually let your hair down?

[look, she wants to know, and under the effects of the new medicine, it is a fantastic idea to ask.]

[breweries]

Now, where did this come from?

[medicative]

It comes from my true and honest curiosity. There is no grander place.

[breweries]

Certainly can't argue with that. But yes, I do. It'll damage my hair otherwise.

Are you asking for haircare tips, Miss Emily?

[medicative]

Not at the moment. I was merely thinking about you.

[breweries]

Feeling bold tonight, aren't we? I'm deeply touched.

[murrvelous]

[ the proprietor is silent for a moment, as if trying to put the right words together as to not receive any kind of future harassment--- from murr or the bakeneko that support murr's lifestyle among them--- and then nods slowly. he will not be blinking twice if he's being held hostage, thank you. ]

See? Everything is fine!

[ has murr mastered the art of the Shylock Smile? not quite, but it's still the kind that you don't want to believe is full of well-intent. ]

Wait, you got them?

[ he will be getting into those bags a little more, then. ]

[medicative]

A better word might be that I am feeling honest.

[breweries]

Honest, you say. Were you out drinking, then? I do wish I were there to see it.
