It'd be irresponsible to adopt a cat right now, given everything. Impractical.
[And yet, that doesn't stop him from casting a soft eye on all the curious residents as they enter that sunny room. Calico, tabby, a giant orange monstrosity holding court in a sunlit window...kittens and older cats alike.
Yeah, this is exactly the right place to bring him. He can't even look as grumpy as usual as he takes a seat, holding the menu he's offered but not even looking at it, instead looking around the room and feeling oddly peaceful.]
How did you even find this place? Have you been holding out on me?
Yeah, it's not like we've got a huge house or the time or resources to spend on a cat.
[he's looking at Shouta flatly here, resting his chin in one hand, the other reaching down to twirl his fingers around the hooked tail of a curious tabby that has already padded over to sniff at Shouta's pants leg.]
But haha, you think I could keep a place like this secret from you? I'm actually surprised you didn't know about it already.
Or instability, or power-swaps, or sudden missing chunks of memories.
[He can look right on back, though that flat look warps into something pained, as a set of tiny claws hook into his leg and the kitten attached to them begins to scale him. Not that he'd ever dream of stopping said kitten.]
Honestly, I haven't really spent much time in the neighborhood the last month. Or...much before that, even. Has it been here a while?
[He'd been trying not to laugh at the dry, sarcastic response honestly. The laughter escapes him though when Shouta's expression twists into something pained. Ah, cats.]
Mm.... a few months I think they said. Definitely popped up after you showed up here, and before the whole month of weirdness yo.
