GLoG 18: It's A Brand New Day

[happyturtle]

Identification: You are the entity known as Kaela
Greeting: Welcome to GLoG
Query: How may I help you?
Query: Would you like some cake?

The Kaela encumbered drone opens the door to let Johnny Boy in.

[Fredthefighter]

Johhny boy walks into the main room.
Hello everybody, I'm Johnny, nice to meet you all.
There is a large smile on his face.

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela, still a kitty, purrs inquistively, and in greeting, and the possibly Prattchett-inspired apparent kung-fu whizz, before nodding, tentatively to the drone, purring again, a smile on his unnatural kitty-face.

[Reinholdt]

Reinholdt shudders a bit. "Comet lied. Said he'd kill us if we did as he asked. Promised. Promised. Where's the creeping black?"

[Fredthefighter]

Johhny Boy looks down at Kaela.
Hello, I'm Johhny, what's your name little kitty?

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela. The kitty-cat says, in a fairly adorable little childlike voice, his smoking coal eyes smoking further.

[happyturtle]

Detention wing:

"Nobody wants to kill you, Reinholdt," Turtle says.

----

Greatroom:

Peter walks into the Greatroom, still talking to Nora (assuming she goes with him), "It's for the best. Chelonie belongs here with her clan. And I will be nearby if she or Melody need anything."

Peter Raven (for Fred's benefit):

[Fredthefighter]

That's a nice name. Are you a cat or just something morphed into a cat?
Hello sir, who might you be? I'm Johhny.

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela doesn't seem to understand the question. Cue: blink. And more purring, as he lithely leaps off the drone, and starts nuzzling up to the boy's legs.

[Fredthefighter]

Johhny kneels down and begins petting the little kitty.
Awwwww, it seems I've got a new friend

(1st question was directed at Kaela, second question was directed at Raven)

[Admiral_Kelly]

Greatroom

"I thought humans did away with clans though." Nora replies to Peter.

[Kaelaroth]

Johhny kneels down and begins petting the little kitty.
Awwwww, it seems I've got a new friend

Kaela purss, and continues to slink about the boy's legs, occasionally playfully licking at his ankles.

[Fredthefighter]

This is a little weird, no wonder dad never let me have anything bigger than a goldfish.
Okay little Kitty, I have to go take care of a few things now. I'll be back.
Johnny walks off towards the training room.
Time to get in a little workout before I go to sleep.

[Reinholdt]

Reinholdt tries to jump out of Happy's arms and wheel to face her. "LIES!!LIESLIESLIESLIESLIES!! Reinholdt gone, Reinholdt gone. A good thing. Was promised, promised by the one who pretends to understand."

Reinholdt lies down putting his paws on his ears as if to shut out her voice, shaking his head. "Reinholdt not wanted. Knows this. Seen this. Knows it. Reinholdt hated. I'm not needed. The kings and dogs say so."

[Kaelaroth]

This is a little weird, no wonder dad never let me have anything bigger than a goldfish.
Okay little Kitty, I have to go take care of a few things now. I'll be back.

Kaela mewls unhappily, and continues to unhappily nuzzle at Johny's legs.

[happyturtle]

Greatroom:

"How could anyone do away with clans? The clan is just an extension of the family unit. I know Chelonie considers all of the members of GLoG to be in her clan, whether they are human or not." Then he hears Johnny's question. "I'm Peter Raven. I'm pleased to make your acquaintance."

Detention wing:

"I forgive you." Turtle says.

[Fredthefighter]

(His name is Johnny, not Fred)
Little kitty, I have things to take care of, don't you dare try the look on me, it doesn't work.
It's a pleasure to meet you Mr.Raven, I'm Johnny.
Johnny is now in the training room.
From the hall people should be able to hear the sound of fists and feet rapidly hitting a punchbag, with the occasional "Hiyah!" thrown in every now and again.

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela doesn't understand. What look? Sadly, he pads away from Johnny, and rounds a corner...
... padding his way, with a ripple of space-time, in to Reinholdt's cell, purring.

[Fredthefighter]

Johnny walks out of the training room.
Okay, now that my warmup is over, anyone want to sparr? I promise I won't hurt you.

[Reinholdt]

Reinholdt shakes his head at Turtle. He's heard the lies before. The fake love and friendship. Just setting him up to be used. "Nononono..."

Then Kaela shows up. Reinholdt looks at the pink and purple kitty as if trying to recall something.

[Admiral_Kelly]

[Greatroom]

"I know, I grew up in a clan. But most humans say they are of countries and lineages. I was not aware GLoG was a clan though."

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela purrs at the other kitty, and pads towards him, shrinking even more, slightly, and tries, tentatively, to nuzzle him.

[Fredthefighter]

Anybody up for some sparring? I could use a challenge.
Johnny looks around for a potential opponent.
There's got to be someone willing to do some semi-contact sparring. I won't hurt you I promise.

[happyturtle]

"Sorry, son, I don't think I'm up for it today," Peter says to Johnny. If there was anyone around who knew Peter, they would probably find this unusual. "I suppose you could say my lineage is the Blackdust clan, though we take members by adoption, not just by blood."

----

Turtle looks at Kaela, then back at Reinholdt, then back at Kaela. "Hi Kaela," she says softly but affectionately.

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela purrs happily at Happy, rolling onto his back, proffering his tummy for tickling.

[Reinholdt]

Reinholdt's sort of lost. He's contemplating somewhere in his addled mind that the fact Kaela's here means he can grab him and end it all right there. But he's not too good at processing things right now. So Kaela nuzzles him as he sits there staring into nothingness.

This act of kindness elicits a rather tortured groan from Reinholdt as he pulls away rapidly from Kaela, as if afraid of him.

[Me.]

Ryu undeadtimes and walks out into the greatroom. He lights a fire in the fire place and practices his control over it...

[Fredthefighter]

Johnny sighs and puts his hands on his hips.
Ah well, another time then. I've gotta get some rest though, I've had a long day. Red dragons and the like keep attacking me, strangely, something seems to be causing arcane fluctuations to happen when I'm in danger, maybe it's my dad, he's a wizard so he could do that kind of thing, or one of my six brothers, meh, I'll find out someday. Good night everybody.
Whoops I forgot, where do I sleep?

[Kaelaroth]

Kaela mewls, in confusion, and rolls onto his front, padding over to the other cat, prodding at him with his snout.

[happyturtle]

Happy pets Kaela a little with her one hand. "I know you don't believe me Reinholdt. And I know you have good reason not to. But whether you believe me or not, I am your friend."

----

A drone will lead Johnny to his own room.
