exsilium | 002

[The network contains no shortage of complaints about problems in this place. Who the Initiative chooses to pull in, uncertainties and angry demands for purpose, even complaints about the weather. But there's one problem that has, as a whole, received very little attention.

Until now.

When the feed turns on, it's clear that the video function has been activated, but the camera isn't aimed at anything particularly interesting (just a wall). All that's really noteworthy is a constant sound in the background, something between a growl and a low-pitched meow. Clearly identifiable as being of feline origin.

Yes, from the sound of it, someone is now a victim of Exsilium's stray cat problem. Or, at the very least, of one particularly persistent stray cat.

This persists for a few long moments until a female voice, carrying a distinct hint of exasperation, adds to the soundtrack.]

Does this [A yowl of protest later, a cat, a skinny, orange, mangy little thing, comes into focus] belong to anyone?

[Going once.... going twice....

No, seriously, someone claim this cat or she's probably going to cook it B'|]

[Okay, he'll be accommodating.]

It sure doesn't look like it belongs to anyone. And if it does, maybe it shouldn't. Where'd you find it?

[So nice, Saul :')]

I didn't find it anywhere. It followed me.

[Words that usually don't appear in the same sentence: those.]

Oh. In that case, sounds like you've got yourself a new pet. Is there a veterinarian in this place?

[The thought of this thing becoming a new pet is very horrifying. But at least she doesn't have to comment on it, because the unfamiliar word distracts her]

A what?

Veterinarian.

[Because repeating things always helps, right?]

Animal doctor. You know? "Uh-oh, Fido needs his dangly bits removed before we end up with puppies! Time to go to the vet."
