[ 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. ]
[ nope! yanking murr's arm away from those bags with an iron grip. ]
Please, Mr. Proprietor. I can assure you that my dear friend here usually means well in most situations -- it's just that sometimes, curiosity can get the better of him.
[ oh, what a fierce grip shylock has... don't mind murr's soft humming noise of approval. now that alone has the bakeneko rolling their eyes. what he wouldn't mind having that same touch against the scruff of his neck. ]
Yeah! Of course. Don't worry, I'll play nice every time I come back, okay?
[ does his cutest, most cat-like grin help his cause? probably not.
still. ]
I always have fun here. Why would I wanna ruin a good thing?
[ wow! you think murr would sabotage his own chances with all of the bakeneko, the proprietor, the people who occupy the cafe on a regular basis...
yea ]
Okay~
[ walking back into the store proper, murr raises one hand and then immediately lets it flop from the wrist. a proper cat paw impression from the number one cat impersonator. ]
Bye bye!
[ one or two of the bakeneko wave with their own paws. a few, with tails. the others? no fks given. and then murr returns right back to shylock's side. ]
well, that's the end of that. shylock will lead the way from here, but not before handing one of the shopping bags over to murr. don't take a peek now! ]
Yes. Today's rather slow, so I may as well purchase some essentials. I'll have to thank you for reminding me.
[ oh he really REALLY wants to peek inside, but he remembers that steel grip from before and he figures he'll wait until they're somewhere kind of private before he goes for it again. ]
A slow day? Does that mean you have time to play?
[ stares with open eyes. you can even see the little sparkles in them if you stare long enough. ]
shylock stops in his steps like... how on earth did it ever come to this. but spontaneity is their game, so he'll have to reach in, caressing his stupid butt while he's at it and...
[ and murr is more than happy to pull shylock closer, feel the barrel of it against his chest, all while smiling brightly at shylock with the smallest amount of teeth while doing so. ]
Yeah? And then what did he do, hm?~
[ he even goes so far as to wrap his arms around shylock and hum. ]
[ the utter audacity. shylock would not hesitate in killing him if this gun were real, you know?
except he won't. murr knows he won't, and that's the most maddening thing.
... ]
It's not my fault if you'd already forgotten, hm?
[ he wasn't even sure what kind of relationship bradley and nero had. unlike him and murr, the two of them would keep whatever they have under wraps. but is that any better?
after mulling it over, he retracts the gun from murr's chest and hands it over to him. there's no point to this. ]
Never you mind. I was merely talking to myself. Moreover we should finally get ourselves home, hm?
[ he wouldn't, he couldn't, and yet murr doesn't even think of those implications. the only thing that's on his mind is if he'd hear the sound of a gunshot, he wouldn't even flinch. his smile would be as bright as ever. just like how he's wearing one right now.
quietly, murr takes the gun and sticks it in the waist of his pants. he flings his arms out and one of his legs. ]
We should! We should! I want some of those fruit snacks.
[ and he spins, twirls around shylock with a grin. ]

All right, time to go. Say goodbye to your new friends now, hm?

It's almost reminiscent of Bradley's pistol, don't you think so?

He'd aimed it at Nero like this.
