[It's after practice but before dinner so Furuya's coming home, but unlike every other day he's not coming in alone. Padding behind him, tail high and friendly, is an adult snow leopard, and he seems to be encouraging it. Depending when Shun finds the pair, they'll be coming inside, napping in the living room, or moving to the backyard where Furuya is trying to get the big cat to retrieve his pitches.]
[ Is the cat napping on top of him just like a small cat would? That's quite the weird sight.
He's seen the huge felines around by now, and it's kind of weird to have them be so friendly. You're always warned about them being dangerous. But he supposes if one bit you while you were petting them you might get hurt... ]
[Yep. Furuya's on the couch and most of the leopard is, too, but there's one leg and a tail just draped off the side. It's really warm but in a cozy kind of way.
Furuya blinks and tilts his head back until he can see his roommate/brother, then nods.]
She followed me home.
[In case there's somehow confusion about this, he scratches the cat under the chin.]
[ He... honestly isn't sure how to react here. Should he be freaked out? Compared to the candy land the place turned into the other day it seems much less strange, but... ]
[Furuya just sort of observes. He doesn't have a ton of options, really; the cat's on top of him.
The leopard, on the other hand, is very interested in the newcomer, sniffing at Shun as he walks past. Like an average housecat, though, she doesn't turn around or move much at all when he sits down.
That is, until Shun gets a tail right in the face. Greetings.]
[ With the way people behave when there's a normal sized cat on top of them, he really isn't expecting Furuya to move.
Thank you, cat hair in his mouth is exactly what he needed for dinner. He looks kind of annoyed, as if he's dealing with Cat who decided to dig his talons into his shoulder, but that's something he's used to. For some reason Cat likes sitting on him. ]
[Whap. Cats can tell when they're annoying people, and apparently the size doesn't make any difference. The leopard does rearrange herself a little so she can get a better look at Shun, which means now Furuya is getting a paw in his face.
There's enough annoying cat to go around.]
You snood twy pedding her beck.
[He's sure the leopard is friendly but he's not brave enough to dislodge her paw just yet so this is what Shun gets.]
[ Oh god no, at least this animal better not try to sit on him, because that seems to be the go-to with Shun and animals. He's pretty sure that's not a thing cats don't do that often though, right? Please. Because Shun isn't going to be brave enough to shove a leopard off his shoulder when he can't even get a horned owl to get off him without getting talon marks. ]
That's uh, yeah.
[ Hesitantly reaches out to pet the back of the animal. There there. ]
[This is clearly agreeable to the cat, who curls up even more on Furuya. The paw is gone, at least, and he's able to slide out--carefully--until he's sitting up and the leopard is the only one on the couch. Shun, in the meantime, is getting a very serious request for ear scratches in the form of a head butting against his hand.]
See? She likes it.
[He reaches out to scratch between her shoulderblades but the leopard is all about the new guy.]
[ He's not used to pets, they can't keep any in the apartment he lives in, but he's keeping the puppy so he better get used to it. And he's kind of uncertain still (he doesn't want to lose a hand!), but he scratches one of the ears. That's what she wanted, right? ]
Did you run into her and just decided to keep her?
[Maybe a little, but on the other hand he's been around her all day. Shun is new.
The ear scratches are very much appreciated. The leopard leans into the touch, eyes closed. Happy cat.]
Yeah. She was by the school this morning and when I called to her she came right over. She was still there at lunch and when I left she followed me home.
[ That's a good reaction, right? Regular cats do that when they like it, don't they? But he's also aware that cats like to bite as if that's the height of feeling good.
So he's kind of tense and ready to pull back at any quick move. ]
Oh. Right. You think these ones will stay like the dogs or leave?

Re: day 4 of kfad: dia de los gatos
O...kay?
[ What's he supposed to do in this situation? ]
Re: day 4 of kfad: dia de los gatos
Did you want to pet her? She's really nice, and she's softer than you'd think.
Re: day 4 of kfad: dia de los gatos
[ He doesn't want to seem like he wants it too much, that would make him like Makki and his obsession with getting Cat to like him.
He... sits down on what space is left on the couch, be it the armrest or the actual seats. ]
Hi, uh... kitty.

I don't know. It doesn't seem to make any sense. My dog didn't stay, but Sawamura's chicken did, so maybe.
no subject
Yeah, my dog stayed too.

Wait, what chicken?
no subject
There was a cruise we all got put on and my room had a chicken, but Sawamura kept it. I think it was the only chicken.
no subject
Uh. Okay? Why keep a chicken?

If he had a bear, he'd also name it Kuma. He is not a creative guy.]
I don't know. He does strange things all the time.

He's one of those guys, huh. I know one of those. He's an idiot.
no subject
Sawamura's mostly just loud. Is yours loud too?
no subject
Yeah, and annoying.
