[they blink.]

Oh, does that make you the other cat I met, Nogiku?

[ktiseos]

For that matter, just who is it that you work with? I'd more or less expected our number to remain at four.

[local man definitely just kept thinking someone was impersonating one of them...]

[pura]

I work with Riff-san. If it's the same for one of you, I expect it to be Jiuqing.

[ktiseos]

...how strange. Do you two perform the same duty, then?

[pura]

I'm responsible for some of the special deliveries, but not others, so I think that's the case.

What about the rest of you? I know nothing about your tasks.

[ktiseos]

The dreams are mine-- the ones with the rose tattoos. I work with Bass to send them.

[a slight pause.]

The pig ones are not mine, nor do I expect he has two individuals working with him as well, seeing as they manifest differently. I've yet to have the chance to speak with him of it, but I suspect they may have something to do with him regardless.

[pura]

Oh, so I have you to thank for that dream the other week. Do you have any idea why I didn't start acting funny until Friday?

[Maybe it was a mod typo. Who knows. It haunts her.]

Well, if you get an answer about the pig tattoos, I would be interested in hearing about it.

[ktiseos]

I do not, no, but I was told not to worry about it.

[it was a mod typo]

I will share if I learn anything, however.

[georeject]

[this is completely irrelevant but since clarte hasn't really gotten the chance to see emet recently until now—]

By the way, Emet-Selch... how are you doing?

[countermeasures]

[she nods]

That's right.

[georeject]

How did the two of you find each other, anyway?

[countermeasures]

I think she was planning to make me her confidant about what she was doing...? But when she began the conversation, it became rather obvious that she was the other cat, so I asked if she was the one who sent me the fingerprinting kit and we went from there.

[georeject]

Ah, I see. That was fortunate.

[countermeasures]

Wasn't it?

[she smiles]

It worked out well. I'm glad.

[pura]

To be honest, I found it odd that you had two special deliveries. But I still wanted to be cautious if it turned out you didn't know anything.

[countermeasures]

Riff urged me to keep my delivery to myself, this week - so I did.

[pura]

Did he? He says he never knows what they might be, so that's surprising.

Though... You didn't consider being selfish until then?

[pura]

[Ah. She looks embarrassed, just a little.]

You're the panda?

[georeject]

Yes, that's me. I'm sorry, I really wasn't sure what you were trying to tell me...

[pura]

No, it's alright. I didn't realize you were probably just trying to say "hi" until our time ran out, so...

[georeject]

... Ah, I probably could've been clearer on that. Unfortunately, it's not very easy to spell things out with paws...

[pura]

It didn't help that I couldn't speak, either...

You made a good call with the sign. You and— [A beat.] ... The horse.

[georeject]

Haha... that was his idea, so I can't take credit.

[it is probably obvious by elimination who the horse is because of the two dudes here, who can you imagine doing what the horse did.]

[pura]

[she does not want to assume emet is the elephant because that seems discriminatory against giants actually

she absolutely thinks he is

but she will not say it]

Hm. Smart thinking.

[aitou]

was it good...?

[HE SEEMS SURPRISED BY THIS]
