[Voice]

[helmetdoesnothing]

[There's a few long moments of staticky silence, then Mituna's voice - quiet, but still with that trademark horrendous lisp. He didn't lose that this week, clearly.]

Tho.. my matethprit ith gone, I gueth.

[A long pause follows this announcement, then he continues.]

I don't want to change back.

[It is quite soon afterwards that Nepeta's voice sounds out in his hive.]

Mituna! I'm here!

[helmetdoesnothing]

Hi, Nep.

[You could think, for a moment, that he isn't having any trouble at all with his sight. He's managed to work out how to get around his house by himself, in any case.

He's waiting for her, leaning on the wall in the hallway, and waves slightly when he hears her voice.]

Did you bring thweetth?

[bestestfurrend]

Hi!!

[She approaches him in one of her eager bursts of energy, stopping just short of glomping him with a great big hug. No, bad kitty. No jumping people who can't see you coming!]

Of course I did, I purromised I would.

[helmetdoesnothing]

[As if he can feel her coming, he braces himself to be jumped at, but when it doesn't happen some of the tension drops out of his shoulders.]

Erm. Thankth..

[bestestfurrend]

Do you want some now?

[She'll slip up next to his side to pat his arm reassuringly.]

[helmetdoesnothing]

Yeth pleathe.

[He gives her a small smile. Nepeta, you're the best, even if his yellowblood social awkwardness won't let him say it.]

[bestestfurrend]

[She beams back at him even though he can't see her, fishing about in one of her pockets for the sweets.]

Here they are! Can you give me one of your hands?

[helmetdoesnothing]

Thure.

[He holds one out, palm up, fingers slightly curled.]

[bestestfurrend]

[She carefully places the small bag of sweets on his outstretched hand.]

There you go!

[helmetdoesnothing]

Thankth!

[And he actually sounds genuinely cheerful this time as he curls his fingers around the bag and carefully digs into it to pull out a sweet.]

Where do you get thethe?

[bestestfurrend]

There's a little shop with all kinds of candy. I can take you to it one day! I'm trying to learn to make them myself too, with the honey from Mister Psii's bees.

[helmetdoesnothing]

[He bounces on his heels a little, hearing about the bees. He hasn't met Psiioniic in person yet, but he keeps hearing about him, and in this condition he's more curious than ever.]

Can I help? Not now, I mean.. after thith.

[bestestfurrend]

Uh huh! Of course! That's a pawesome idea, I bet it'll be lots of fun!

[If by fun you mean 'covered in honey and needing a new kitchen'.]
