[rdmcatpaw]

Reno... I want to-- I mean, I would like to talk to you in person, whenever its possible for you.

[There's a pause.]

Ah, meet me outside of my room?

Comments

[Voice] --> [Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Sure thing, I'll be there in a few.

[Ten minutes later there's a knock on her door.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[The Mithra had just put away her 'sleeping bag' of coats just as Reno knocked, she opens the door and steps outside, closing it behind her. She wasn't wearing her usual red mage gear, but something just as comfortable.]

Thanks for coming Reno.

[She nodded and put her hands behind her back, her foot rubbing a circle in to the floor.]

Ah... I wanted to apologize for the way I behaved when you found me with Jinx.

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Eh, it's cool.

[He shrugs and leans against the wall, arms folded comfortably across his chest.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[She glances over to him before back at the floor, taking a deep breath.]

Although, when you used that ability of yours during the Brenner game...

[Cat trailed off, fidgetting with her hands a little bit. She had to tell him.]

Well, it... uh... brought back some bad memories.

[Commentlog] In which Reno is an ass

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Which, Pyramid or the lying to you? It's sorta how I do things Cat.

Re: [Commentlog] But a loveable one. <3

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

Ah, pyramid.

[She pulled her hands out from behind her back and made the shape with her fingers.]

It just reminded me of how helpless I was in Aht Urghan when I tried rescuing a friend.

[Commentlog] maybe if you're Cat?

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

It was that or beat you up.

[His voice is calm, he's rational about it.]

I was doin' what I had to do to rescue the kid.

[Commentlog] They are from different worlds

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

I know.

[She nodded.]

I guess I just... reacted badly to it. Sorry.

[Her ears lowered and tail stopped moving.]

[Commentlog] This is true, though being an ass should be universal?

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Eh, it happens. I can't stand ties.

[Not really the same thing Reno.]

[Commentlog] Perhaps?

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[Totally not.]

Ah... I wasn't talking about that.

[She looked away and scratched at her neck.]

[Commentlog] IDK

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[Now you've got him interested in your life story Cat.]

[Commentlog] idke.

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[There was a sigh before looking up at the ceiling.]

Ever since... well, after I got out of your pyramid, I've been reliving a horrible night for a bit of time. I've been refusing to go in to rooms, although I made an exception when two of my friends were chained to their beds, but still... it was a struggle. It didn't help that I was under some sort of truth spell whenever someone asked a question.

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

That must have been...difficult.

[He'd personally have to seclude himself if he found out he'd been forced to tell the truth every time he was asked. There were a lot of things he knew and thought that others would hold against him or even use to their advantage.]

Trust me when I say I know what it's like. Bein' terrified of somethin' and not being able to sleep 'cause of it.

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[She nods to the trouble comment but blinks in surprise.]

Ah, I'm sorry Reno.

[The Mithra moved to touch his arm but pulled her hand back with a bit of hesistance. She sighed.]

Its my fault that my 'big brother' might come and talk to you or might even do something that I may be unaware of.

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

I'm not gonna bite you, not unless you want me to.

[There's a bit of a smile there, he'll deal with "big brother" when the time comes. Hell he's been one before and dealt with worse.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

Eh?!

[She sounded embarrassed at the biting comment before looking away, red in the cheeks.]

I know that... just don't say it like that.

[But has he dealt with... a giant troll?]

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[He's dealt with Cloud Strife and other monsters.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

You're not a monster.

[She pointed a finger at him before retracting it quickly, thinking Reno would bite her.

That is true, but she couldn't help but worry about it.]

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Eh, I've been called that an' worse Cat. Sorta comes with the territory.

[He's smiling though so he's probably joking... right?]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[Her ears drooped a little, lost in a thought before perking back up.]

Well, I'm not calling you a monster. If anything, you're a friend who needs a lot of Cures most of the time.

[There was a small laugh.]

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Friend huh? Been a while since I've had one of those that's not someone I work with.

[He's rather pleased to be called that Cat. Don'tcha know.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

Really?

[She turned to face the red head with a tilted head.]

That's a bit of a surprise. Too much time for work to not socialize at any taverns?

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Somethin' like that, yeah. Work always came first, everythin' else second.

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

That's understandable.

[She nods and glances up at the ceiling.]

Got to do the missions you're assigned to do or else bad things happens, like the end of the world.

[Uh, maybe that was too drastic. She quickly rose her hands and waved them.]

I mean it never got to that point though! Ah, what am I trying to say?

[Cat sighed a little and her frame drooped.]

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

[Reno laughed, grinning.]

Pretty much, and when you can get called at any time it sorta puts a damper on making friends and doing things outside of work.

[That and being a Turk wasn't exactly something people liked about you.]

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[Another nod.]

I guess so. Well, at least things here are different for you? You can make as many friends as you want to!

[She was smiling a bit more as she pulled away from the wall and actually glanced at her room. Pulling out her card key, she took a deep breath and stepped inside, but made sure she was quick about it. Once she got the item she was looking for, she remerged from her room and held out a heron feather to the red head.]

Here, I want you to have this since it might be of more use to you than me. If I remember correctly, this can protect you against any kind of attack for a little bit.

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

Huh, thanks Cat.

[So it's sort of like a phoenix down but different. This is useful.]

You know you... can always come in my room, I'll leave the door open for ya.

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[There's a blink of surprise from her and then she looks away, embarrassed.]

Ah, its... not really... needed. Kevas offered his room to me as well but I feel bad about bothering him about that too. Even if there was that one time I was locked out of my room.

[She's mumbling and rambling at the same time.]

Ah, I mean... well... considering that I kind of don't want to go back in to...

[She gestures to her room.]

[Commentlog]

[messyturk.livejournal.com]

You can't be too comfortable sleeping on the floor all the time Cat.

[Why yes he's worried about you.]

Besides... you'll have to go into a room sometime.

[Commentlog]

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

I don't mind, it reminds me of the time I spent outside adventuring.

[She doesn't want you to worry about her. She'll be fine -- or so she says.]

Its not like I'm sleeping on the floor without anything underneath me. I have some sort of comfort.
