<Kotono> ----
<Kotono> Aaah, a warm lap and a nap. Jetina provides, as she sits back and dozes herself. Petting fades as both slip into the land of dreams.  Pepo's reverie lasts a good long time, as he sleeps much deeper than he normally does. When he stirs, as is routine for a cat, he can her Jetina murmur, "Just like him."
<Pepo> He looks up at Jetina to see if she's awake and making some comment or just talking in her sleep.
<Kotono> She's awake, smiling as she pets Pepo. "Hey there," she murmurs. "Sorry, was just thinking out loud, you remind me of someone back home."
<Pepo> 'Who is that?' he asks, purring in contentment and laying his head back down.
<Kotono> "Jasper Smith." The petting is soft and warm, soothing Pepo. Mmm, good hands. "He...well...we used to joke he was a cat in a man's body."
<Pepo> 'Perhaps he was, but he never remembered how to change,' Pepo muses idly. Things certainly would have turned out different had he arrived here in humanoid form with no recollection of the feline.
<Kotono> "Hah, maybe, but I know his parents are both humans. They're an old family," Jetina remarks as she pets. "You're rather special, aren't you?"|
<Pepo> 'Perhaps all cats are like me where I came from,' Pepo says. 'But I'm sure I was superior even there.'
<Kotono> "Of course. You're the best mind-kitty of them all," Jetina gently laughs as she pets Pepo. "Maybe you were the king of cats over there."
<Pepo> 'Cats aren't foolish enough to need someone ruling over them,' he replies lazily.
<Kotono> "Uh huh. A king in every lap then, eh?" Jetina laughs again, "More likely that the other cats wouldn't listen, anyway."
<Pepo> 'Not unless it was important,' he agrees.
<Kotono> "Uh huh," Jetina repeats with a smile. "Like the dogs are coming, quick, they'll steal our mice? Or it's going to rain and ruin our coats, dig burrows now?"
<Pepo> 'Dig burrows?' he repeats incredulously.
<Kotono> "You know, to get out of the rain. Flex those claws and dig!" Jetina says brightly.
<Pepo> 'Herbivores dig,' Pepo says with what could be a mental sniff of disdain. 'Perhaps dogs as well...' he allows reluctantly.
<Kotono> "So maybe you should try it. You might like it," Jetina says, all warmth and amusement.
<Pepo> 'I'd rather sink my claws into flesh than dirt,' he says, rising up and turning a tiny circle on Jetina's lap before he kneads her legs a bit in readiness to settle down again.
<Kotono> "I can see that," Jetina doesn't react - my, she has relatively flexible and enduring skin for a human. "Cats are little bundles of killing intent, aren't they?"
<Pepo> 'If it's not meat we can't eat it. And there's only one place to get meat,' Pepo says as he settles down again in much the same spot he started. 'Though I will allow space for cheese.'
<Kotono> "Cheese? Why's that?" Jetina asks as she starts to pet Pepo again.
<Pepo> 'It tastes good.'
<Kotono> "Of course," Jetina says dryly, "But you can eat what you can't eat?"
<Pepo> 'Cheese is an exception, like milk. And egg. They come from the same place meat does, so it's not hypocritical,' Pepo insists.
<Kotono> "Of course, king kitty," Jetina laughs, and pets away as the afternoon passes. OOC: Good there?
<Pepo> OOC: yep
