[Afternoon, Vatheon. Night is here, although he isn't looking very cheery right now. In fact he actually looks somewhat... ill?]

Does anyone know how to cut hair? I think I'm due for a trim... [Tucking back some bangs, the rest of his hair in a very small ponytail at the base of his neck. A groan escapes him as he runs a hand over his face.]

Ugh... It feels like a truck just headbutted my stomach. That can't be normal, right?

[No. It isn't.]

I can cut your hair, Night.

[Also medical concerns? Stein is a totally responsible doctor.]

Do you want me to cut you open and see if there's something wrong?

I think someone already volunteered...

[sgjhds]

No thanks! I think it's just a stomach bug.

It could be an ulcer. Or even cancer.

Being a demon takes care of threats like that I think.

Are you sure? It could be a demonic ulcer.

No, I'm pretty sure it's because I ate chocolate.

[hahaha...ha...]

But your concern is... appreciated!

... Cats can't taste sweets.

Demonic ones can!

But demonic cats are still affected by theobromine?

In large amounts... I mean, I've had sweets before, like chocolate, but it was always in small bits so it never really affected me before.

I wonder what else you're susceptible to. We could research it some more.

You won't find much. Aside from a few things I'm pretty resilient...

Oh? What other than theobromine?

I don't like catnip.

Well, we should make sure no one plants any Nepeta species in our garden.

Already took care of it!

At least I know where some are already planted so I know to stay away from those areas.

I've heard that it can be pleasant if you know what to expect. But then again, I'm not a cat.

Maybe for a normal cat it can be nice, but I don't enjoy the sensation at all.

I don't enjoy being drugged either. [Or hallucinating just because his mind decides to hallucinate.] There's something we have in common.

The first time it happened felt similar to having my underbelly exposed to a predator. I prefer being in control of my mind and my instincts.

[That's exactly how Stein would describe the feeling, if he were anything other than a human.]

The first time?

The first and only time.

There are some other plants with similar impacts on cats, so you'll need to be careful and not stick your nose in everything you find.

Like what?

Oh, I'm not a plant expert.

Valerian is one, and I'm fairly sure if it has as many uses in anti-demon pharmacology as it has in regular herb-based medicine, we'll have some in our garden.

There are some others, but I can't remember them right now.
