Fifth floor common room, Sunday night (lateish)

Nadia had managed to sleep pretty much all day. Thus she was groggy, but not tired as she shuffled her way out to the common room, Furrball at her heels.

She had the Best. Cat toy. Ever.

A laser pointer.

She flopped onto the couch, turned on the TV, and set to sending Furrball running in circles after a tiny red dot.

Conner's energy level hadn't quite given out yet after a late-evening bit of soccer practice out on the grounds, so he was taking advantage of it while it lasted and wandering the dorms. "Nadia, what are you doing?"
nadiathesaint: (cheerful)

Nadia looked up from where she nearly had Furrball climbing the wall to get at the little red dot.

"Playing with my cat. Hi, Conner,"

"Oh! Is that the old laser pointer trick?" Conner asked, grinning at Furrball's antics. "That's classic. We used to do that to our cat at home until my brother got the bright idea that Wheelie could help him with ninja training, and . . . yeah."
nadiathesaint: (what?)

". . . Ninja training?" The red dot froze and Furrball pounced on it . . . then blinked and pounced again.

And again.

And again.

How did it keep getting on top of his paws?!!

"Eric wanted to be a ninja," Conner said, rolling his eyes, "but he wasn't very good at it. It didn't stop him from practicing, though, and it's a really good thing we had a waterproof home insurance policy."

He watched Furrball's repeated and futile pouncing attempts with growing amusement. "I love how the little laser dot's always a surprise for them."
nadiathesaint: (relaxed)

"I'm pretty sure I don't want to know why 'ninja' and 'waterproof home insurance policy' go together."

Nadia started sweeping the dot side to side, and Furrball watched its movements frantically.

Then she sent it to Conner's foot, and Furrball dashed after it to pounce again. . . .

"I wish I didn't know. The drywall is never going to be the same ag -- AGH!"

Hello, sudden blue-furred foot accessory.
nadiathesaint: (hee)

Nadia giggled. Furrball blinked again.

The red dot had gotten away! Again!

Nadia got Furrball to chase his tail in front of Conner.

"Keep that up and I'm going to get dizzy," Conner exclaimed. "Wow, cats and laser pointers. The entertainment gift that just keeps giving."
nadiathesaint: (concern)

"With very little effort of one's own." Nadia swept the pointer towards the wall. Furrball dashed after it.

Straight into the wall.

Nadia sat up, but Furrball just shook his head, unflattening his face with an audible *pop!* and started jumping for the dot.

"Dude!" Conner blurted as Furrball faceplanted into the wall, then shook his head when the cat seemed to be okay. "With pets like these, who needs cartoons?"
