I’m looking for a cat.

That is, my cat. He’s…well. [He thinks about this for several moments, before continuing] He’s black and sort of lanky, and he’s got a white spot on the back of his neck. I don’t know when he got out, but with the stormy weather lately, I don’t think he should be out on the streets.

[His discomfort with the situation is obvious, but he just can’t seem to find his cat on his own]

If you see him around, I’d appreciate it if you’d let me know.

…Right, his name’s Elyan.

You mean you found a cat that can stand you?

[ex_elude798]

Seven of them.

[For some reason he likes that number]

[destinedforrock]

I'll - keep an eye out.

And I'll tell my cat friend to do the same.

[ex_elude798]

I appreciate it. Usually I can find him.

[depolarized]

[Seven??] No accounting for taste.

You're better off posting flyers around town unless someone just realized they're good at cat-finding here.

[ex_elude798]

I did that already.

[And naturally the more time passes the more concerned he gets. Kitties why]

I will help you on your cat quest.

audio;

[ex_elude798]

...Quest?

[Like with EXP and Gold and sometimes equipment rewards, man?]

audio;

[enrages]

Uh.

Well, I mean, cat quest sounds better than cat search.

audio;

[ex_elude798]

Guess so. Just makes me think of games.

audio;

[enrages]

Lost pets aren't a game, jesus fucking christ. They're serious business, wow.

audio;

[ex_elude798]

You don't have to tell me that.

audio;

[enrages]

Good! Now stop wasting my time! Do you have a picture of the cat? Because your description was kinda crap.

audio;

[ex_elude798]

Who's wasting time here, quest-guy?

[He's ruffled, and it's obvious he's ruffled, but there's the clear sound of buttons being tapped before ping! There's a photograph of his cat. Healthy and handsome, best tail ever]

Get it?

[enrages]

Oh my god, so fluffy. What a sweet little baby. So cute.

[ ahhhhhhhh-- wait shit, down to business. ]

Uh. Um. Yeah, got that shit. So, I'll. Start looking-- I travel a lot of the city with my job, so I can cover a lot of ground. Does it answer to a name?

audio;

[ex_elude798]

[He's quiet a moment, if only because he thinks those things too...not that he'd admit it. No sir]

He's Elyan, like Lancelot's cousin.

audio;

[enrages]

Got it.

You got a number I can reach you on? In case I find him, and you're not on the network.

audio;

[ex_elude798]

I check my email more often, actually.

[And he sends it in a text]

[depolarized]

When did he go missing?

[Chill. He's a cat. They are masters of kung fu and stuff.]

[ex_elude798]

He went out this morning when I left for classes, like usual.

But he always comes back for food around the time I return.

[Knows his schedule, his kitty does. And as he's several hours late, Suzaku is naturally concerned]

[counterclock]

shit man
missing cats are no fucking joke
don't lose hope bro someone'll find him
where do you live
like where would he be hanging out

[depolarized]

Maybe he isn't hungry. [Just a thought.] Where have you searched so far?

[ex_elude798]

He doesn't stay out at night, either.

I've checked everything in a ten mile radius.

[On his bike, no less]

[ex_elude798]

He should be somewhere in this radius.

[It takes a few moments and then he sends a map, a rough red circle around the area]

[depolarized]

Send me the details. And your contact card. I'll see if I see anything.

...Don't worry too much. If he can stand you, he can stand a couple of gusty winds.
