action | the park

[snagglefang]

[Maybe you decided to go for a stroll through the park today. Maybe enjoy some of that underwater scenery?

Well if you happen to be walking along one of the stone pathways you may notice a trail of tiny, red, paw prints. If you happen to follow them you will end up running into a very strange looking cat with two tails and what look like horns seeming to enjoy making a mess with a tin bucket of red paint nearby. The contents are spilled out everyone over the stones, but the black cat doesn't seem to mind much. He's much more focused on drawing pictures with his paws.]

[ooc; kuro is a demon cat/nekomata and if your character is mythical/demon/whatever kuro can talk to them telepathically!]

[ When you're Amaimon, strolling is pretty much what you do all the time. This day was no exception, and of course, as was the case with many things, his curiosity was picked when he saw the paw prints on the pathway, and when his curiosity gets in the way, he'll generally follow it. Unless there's food nearby. Food is always an exception. But not now. As soon as he spotted Kuro, he stood there for a while watching, and after some time sat down, crossing his legs as he watched the cat amuse himself with paint. ]

[snagglefang]

[Right now he was currently drawing a picture of a rat he caught earlier that day and using one of his tails (also dipped in red paint) to help with some of the details. Honestly, he was so great at this. Too bad Rin would never let him paint on the walls like this.

He was just putting the finishing touches on the rat's blood when he felt a familiar presence watching him. When he looks up to see Amaimon there- just sitting there, he freezes, a paw in midair still dripping wet paint.]

[demonicdiabetes]

[ As he drew it, Amaimon just watched, biting his nail, observing closely. This was all so fascinating to him. And cute as hell, to boot. He didn't have much of a reaction when Kuro turned to him and freezed, except pointing at the paint. ]

Can I do it too?

[snagglefang]

['... Huh?' He was prepared for a fight- or to run, but that caught him off guard. He wanted to... paint... with him?

It takes him a second to process this, but in the end he doesn't see the harm in letting Amaimon try it out...

'Oh, uh... Yeah!' He puts his paw back down, a little dazed.]

[acebrotective]

[Well of course, Junpei's always strolling, it's not like he has anything else to do around these parts. Especially not with everyone going crazy and basically everyone from his world just disappearing. On the upside, no studying, on the downside...boring.

So seeing paw prints is of course going to stop him and make him follow to make sure some animal hasn't hurt themselves. When he just sees Kuro at the end of the trail, it takes a moment before recognition pings at his memory and he approaches.]

Hey, Nekomacchan! [Kind of hard to figure out a cat's name when it doesn't seem like their owner is around, so congratulations on receiving one of Junpei's dumb nicknames.] Whatcha up to now? Redecorating?

[snagglefang]

Mrow! [Hey it was that one guy that gave him food?

Or was that someone else.

Oh well, he still remembers this guy too! Kuro pads over to him, trailing red paint with him from all paws and the tips of his tails.

'I'm painting! You can help me if you want!'] Meow!

[acebrotective]

So you are painting. Seems legit. [He looks around the park before crouching down to Kuro's level.] With the way these weirdo natives are I doubt anyone's gonna notice. Y'don't mind if I try that too, do ya?

[snagglefang]

['Nope! I don't mind at all.' He meows again, still as cheery as before so Junpei can take that as a yes. He goes back over to the bucket to redip his paw in the paint again.] Miaow!

[shippingmath]

[Huh. Well, that's unusual. But this is Vatheon, after all.]

Oh, so you're the cat Roxy was talking about.

[snagglefang]

Mrow? [He pauses in his merry painting of a mess to look up at Dirk, two red tipped tails swaying slowly.]

[shippingmath]

What is this, anyway?

[Not that painting isn't fun just for the sake of it.]

[snagglefang]

Mroow... ['A dead rat!' Not that Dirk can understand him anyways, but he points a paw to a drawing that could or could not be interpreted as a dead rat.]

[chainedpromises]

[Namine had been wandering through the park with her sketchbook, trying to find something to draw. She almost didn't notice the cat until she saw the red paint, then realizing that the cat was actually drawing. Well, this was obviously new to her. She's never seen a cat try to draw before.]

What are your drawing?

[snagglefang]

[At her question he meows loudly up at her- and by the tone in his voice he sounds pretty cheerful about it.

'The rat I caught this morning!' Maybe if she squinted and turned her head to the side she could see it looked a little like a dead, bloody rat.]

[chainedpromises]

[Wait did the cat just... Well, she's seen a talking mouse, dog and duck so this really shouldn't phase her. But she does tilt her head to see the picture and somehow manages to give the cat a small smile.]

O-Oh, it looks good, though. I didn't think a cat could draw.

[snagglefang]

[She could understand him? Cool! More people, the better he thought.

'I can do a lot of things normal cats can't do! That's probably because I'm not a normal cat.' Another big kitty smile.

'So who are you? Do you like to draw too?']

also a dog woof woof

[spacecase]

[Oh hey, it's Rin's cat, what's he up to? Seems like they haven't run into each other much despite her forced abrupt move from the forest to the Villa with John and Rose. Then again she figures that since she's part dog, she'll freak out the cats anyway and leaves them alone out of courtesy.

Suppression of usual doggy tendencies to chase cats aside, Jade will inspect what's going on in this topic! By floating carefully over his already done drawings so she doesn't step on them.]

Hey, kitty!

MEOW

[snagglefang]

[He stops his paint coated paw in midair when Jade calls out to him, ears perked up in surprise. Wow, she smelled weird. Sort of like a...

'Hiya!' Was she a dog? He couldn't tell. Maybe she was a halfdemon?]

WAAAAAAAAN~

[spacecase]

Whoa--[Did she hear that cat talk? Yes, it said hi. So Jade will just get on down to his level and tilt her head at him like a dog]

You can talk, huh? That will make this part a little easier I think--yes, I am part dog, no I will not hurt you. Don't be afraid! You're Rin's cat, aren't you? My name is Jade, I'm a friend of his!

[mothersunlight]

[Picture drawing? Count Ammy in on that! Ammy trots over, barking to catch the cat's attention.]

Arf arf!

[snagglefang]

[The barking does its job in getting his attention- and making him jump. Details.

'Oh... Hi!' He was in the process of drawing another cat next to some of his previous drawings, but the sudden noise brought his paint coated paw down prematurely and so the cat's face had a nice paw imprint on it. Oh well.]

[mothersunlight]

[Ammy's mind is a bit fuzzy to understand in turn, but it's hard to misinterpret that friendly panting and tail-wagging!

She dips her paw in the paint, drawing a cat head, too. Though she gives it a circle on its head - drawing a fellow god.]

[makainoou]

[Laharl is just bored enough that following the trail of pawprints seems like a good idea, even if he knows it isn't blood by the smell. He stops to watch for about five seconds before speaking up.]

You know, if you're gonna graffiti something, you might as well pick someplace more obvious.

[snagglefang]

['Huh?' He was just starting on drawing Rin's face when he looks up at Laharl.

'That isn't my intention! I just felt like playing around, but Rin hates it when I get paint around the house.']

[makainoou]

Who's Rin and why should you give a damn what he thinks of your painting?
