[There's a young girl trying to dodge one of the cats. She doesn't seem to have noticed the vine recording her.]

This is ridiculous. I need information, not a feline escort! Stay away from me, you stupid animal! Shoo! A-A-ACHOO!

[The cat takes the opportunity to move around and walk off, leaving the girl where she's fallen in the snow.]

They're not going to be much help to me. I'm allergic to them.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

Haha, you don't need to touch them! They have scrolls with helpful things on them.

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

It's enough to just be near them!

I did read the scroll, however. It only confirmed the fact that I have been kidnapped and not much else.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

What about the one that talks about vines? Did you read that? [Wow does Utsuho look smug, despite getting the terminology a little wrong.]

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

Of course I did, not that it said much.

[Translation: She skimmed it, not that she would admit that to someone so smug.]

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

Hehe, I guess you got it, then! But in the future, even if you're allergic, you should be nice to cats.

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

Why should I? They're just animals.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

Hmph. You never know what cat's going to be carting your corpse off to hell.

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

[She laughs, sharp and bitter.]

It won't be a cat that drags me to hell.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

You don't know? Cats carry corpses. Orin and me like ours extra-crispy.

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

I have my afterlife travels already arranged, actually. Your services won't be required.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

Haha, with who?

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

Someone I made a deal with. It's none of your concern.

[uraniumtea.livejournal.com]

If you say so!

I'll still be watching.

[toys-with.livejournal.com]

There's no need for that.
