R1 DEADLAND

[it’s strange, for the people who were already dead, the shift in scenery is sudden and complete. For those who have just arrived? It’s like you’re back where you left?

How strange.

But if you ever need her, you can always reach out to the guardian of this place.]

It's a kitty!! [Or maybe he should say it's another kitty? Either way he's so glad... okay, he's going to coax this cat using all of the veterinary skills that he has only read about in a textbook. And see if he can get a good look at that collar.]

ChiChi!!

[the cat's name is ChiChi. And she is quite friendly, now that you've noticed her and solved all her annoying riddles.

But also, Eve sounds so happy.]

I'm so glad you found her.

[He hasn't met you yet, so he's not sure who you are or why you're here but there is one thing he's certain of now that he knows it's a cat and not a ghost:]

Pardon me, uhh.. would you mind if I pet her..?

[he fucking adores cats okay]

[ChiChi does not wait for Eve's permission. ChiChi goes straight for getting petted-- as soon as Yoosung is done.]

ChiChi loves getting petted.

[2-D could cry right now, honestly. When Yoosung gets his pets in he's just gonna crouch down and give her good scritches.]

She's a lovely color.

[usually cats hate him so dying? now it's worth it]

Yes, I like her color a lot. And she's usually very loud.

But I guess she isn't scared right now!

Scared?

[That gets 2-D to look up at Eve, curiously.]

Why would she be scared? We're the only ones here... though I uhh.. I guess a bunch of strangers showin' up out of nowhere would be pretty scary to a kitty.

She's... A special cat. She can sense things.

[that sounds cursed]

Things...?

... you mean all of that was just to find ChiChi?

[Yoosung pauses a bit, to pet ChiChi. Of course.]

It's just like a sidequest in the game...

Oh, did ChiChi make you do a sidequest?

That sounds like her, honestly.

She does this a lot?! ... But how does she make the sidequests?

[stroking under her chin.] Do you understand human language too, cutie?

[He really wonders what Hollyleaf is going to think about all of this.]

[ what hollyleaf thinks of all this is

a house-cat is here ]

...I...didn't know there was a kittypet around here.

Huh? They have pet cats where you're from too?

[Surprises him. He doesn't know anything about cats outside of her clan... or even that much about the clan either. Unlike the ones who passed, he still only spent two weeks with the dead entrance examinees.]

For course! I may have been born into it, but being a Clan cat is a choice, every day of your life. There are, inevitably, those who choose not to be governed by rules, rogues or loners...or those who choose the soft life of a kittypet.

[ ...But, she backtracks-- ]

Even though it's right for some cats, so we shouldn't disparage it. [ it sounds like that's a lecture she's gotten. a lot. many times. so many times. ]

[ChiChi looks unimpressed.

and climbs onto Yoosung's lap.]

[ is this kittypet snubbing her

uh RUDE ]

A cat that talks!

[Just like Hollyleaf....?]

A cat was the note writer?!

ChiChi likes to pretend she's going to make people work for the right to pet her, but if you had given up, she would have come found you.

Wow, I had no idea a pet work work that hard for some headpets. [She's impressed?]

Uh, so I can pet her, right? [Miss... whoever your name is? Why doesn't she recognize you.]

[ChiChi will come directly for pets, after working her way through EVERYONE. unlike hollyleaf, she has no standards.

she's fine with that.]

I'm Eve. And yes, you can.

[This is the best day of Maya's afterlife. Time to pet a cat!]

Hi, Eve. I'm Maya Fey! And hello, ChiChi!

[Headpats!,/small>]

[CHICHI IS LOVING IT.]

I'm glad to meet you, Maya! I can just say Maya, right?

[awwwww yeaaaaah]

That's what most people call me.

[ WOW

W O W

EXCUSE HER FOR HAVING A CODE OF HONOR THAT SHE FEEL PASSIONATE ABOUT!!!! ]
