Aye, it's quite the band we've go amassed here, isn't it? [ leans a bit closer ] Between you me, I think the cookies can't see the difference in anything so long as "meat" is involved.
[ hm... let's walk and talk, molly. off he goes. ]
Tell ye the truth, I wasnae convinced the wish thing was real when it was sold to me. But I figured I didnae have much to lose, so I thought I'd try it. And I'm still not entirely convinced, after everything. So when I say I've got a wish, keep in mind it's not the kind I'd do anything to see granted.
[ that disclaimer aside, he shakes his head ]
But even now I've got two wishes I could make. One's the safe bet, really, stopping a man with the power to destroy our whole planet. The other... [ he looks back up at molly and seems almost sheepish ] It's a selfish thing. About three weeks ago now, right before I landed here, a friend died. And I thought, maybe--a wish could bring her back?
Would you believe I'm in almost exactly the same situation?
[ like. his wish conundrum is nearly identical. ]
... Don't know if it soothes or worries you more, but they said the wishes can be pretty broad. Maybe there's a way to do both, with some clever wording.
[ ... ]
And for what it's worth I don't think there's anything wrong with a bit of selfishness. Sometimes it's whats needed.
... For a friend, or for yourself? Pardon me for asking, it's only... You've said you've died plenty.
[ he doesn't judge either way (and obviously Cannot) but. curious. still, he shakes his head again. kitty ears go flop flop ]
Ach, trust me, I've been plenty selfish throughout my life. This just feels like the kind of thing I should aspire to be selfless about, maybe. [ to do both, though... he does seem like he's considering that. ] Well, it probably won't matter. We were in last before and I doubt losing more members like this will catapult us into first place.

You able to get that reattached?
no subject
It doesnae seem too damaged, so it should be doable... Except it might be a wee bit of a pain.
[ considering. one arm. looks at his moogle like why couldnt you have FINGERS ]
no subject
[ frowning too, and then glancing back at the stump where it was wires and electricity and robot stuff. ]
So you're not a catfolk, exactly?
no subject
No, s'alright. Healing magic would work, but painkillers are a wee too common.
[ thinking of how to explain himself when he never explains himself, ever, ]
Not exactly, no. My body's more of a toy if you must break it down like that.
no subject
[ he isnt gonna call him a toy!!! he is a fully realized cat human!! ]
no subject
The body, not the spirit, lad. [ he's fine being a toy! he was designed to be MARKETABLE. he can be a fully realized cat human outside that ]
no subject
[ he is very marketable. ]
Besides, think you're in good company. For the Cookies throw "human" around, think the majority of us are a bit weirder than that.

Maybe we've all had enough of meat for the weekend.
no subject
[ narja should have eaten a cookie actually that's their natural state of being. thats me talking not cait ]
I cannae imagine the crowd thrilling for that, either, but maybe that's too optimistic.
no subject
[ i think he did, but remind me. ]

[ ... at least he's honest about not being too honest ]
