Second Floor Common Room, Saturday Evening

[myownface]

Okay, so Sparkle had attempted to detach the velcro-cat several times on Thursday, to no avail. And on Friday, he'd been kind of flattered that the little black blob of clingy kitten had stuck around, but kind of concerned all the same. It wasn't as though he knew how to take care of a pet, after all. He'd fed it a can of tuna, gave it some water, and took it outside to do its business a few times, because it wasn't like he owned a litterbox or anything.

When Velcro was still around this morning, he'd relented. Even used some of the money he'd been saving from working at Demon Marcus to get cat supplies that morning, because... well, if it was going to stick around, it was probably a good idea to keep it from crapping in his laundry pile or something.

The thing was, Velcro didn't seem to like the crunchy cat-kibble things that Sparkle had bought. A bit of a piss-off, since he didn't have all that much money in the first place, but hey, that was what common room food was for, at least until he could wean the little guy off of people-food. A rummage through the cupboards, at least, yielded some canned food that the kitten did seem to like.

"Hah! Cats do too eat ham!"

Why did Fandom let Sparkle keep the cat, again?

[OOC: Open common room is open, and all Sparkle threads will be fuelled by the power of chocolate-covered espresso beans. Fear.]

Well, now she was kind of frowning at him. "Turn into a cat?"

El oh el, guess who didn't know about that?

"You didn't know that was a thing that happens?"

"Reasonably sure not but hey, I've been sort of inundated with random things this month," Olive noted. "Um. I'd rather not turn into a cat."

Don't be silly, Olive. You'd be a red squirrel. It's already been decided.

"Oh, not everyone ends up cats!" Toby said brightly, like that was supposed to be reassuring. "Kenzi was a raccoon. For example. But it's another one of those random things that happens, except it doesn't hit everyone at once although certain times of the year see it more frequently than others."

"Kenzi'd make a cute raccoon," Olive noted, then looked alarmed. "Oh, god, that means I've accepted it. I wonder if I'll ever turn into anything."

"Probably," Toby nodded. "Honestly, the worst part is changing back. Cause, I mean. Think about it. Outside of cartoons, animals do not wear clothes."

"...this can never happen to me," Olive decided. "I'm not doing public nudity. No. No. No."

Like you have any control, Olive.

"You let me know how that works out," Toby said dryly.
