Day 325 [video : open]
Tyki Mikk is no longer in the prison. [She contemplates openly sharing that the Defense Force might be responsible for this, but she doesn't, mostly because too much is unknown. It was not what they intended nor was it what they seemed to have achieved in their attempt. Neither was everyone's powers changing yesterday, but that might be on them too. Or it was just the wardens playing games again.

Leading a team is something she understands. Communication with the people they are protecting is newer. She's not about to miss Lacus, but sometimes she misses having a public relations coordinator even if it sounded ridiculous at first.]

And I need to help people with their chores, so...there's that. [Three people specifically. It's her punishment for the hacking.] Tell me what you need done.

	[Kitty tilts her head to the side.] What kind of task did you have in mind? [She does only have to agree to three, but so far this is the only person taking her up on it. Not going to be pretty if she has to beg to do people's chores to avoid getting shocked by the bots.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She claps, and then leans forward and lowers her voice. No, she doesn't put up a private filter. Why would she do that?] You know that one place—"Sector 6"? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-05-26 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	[Oh yes, the whisper filter. Stealth mode. Kitty remains in regular voice mode.] I am aware of it, yeah. Planning to do your dry cleaning there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-05-26 06:49 pm UTC (link)
	What's dry cleaning? Is that akin to a sand bath? [Oh, right, topic at hand.] I was hoping for a friendly face to escort me on a leisurely walk through its more scenic locales! No fighting or the like. Just, exploration. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-05-26 07:46 pm UTC (link)
	Without actually knowing what a sand bath is I'm still going to go with no. And I can guide you, but I can't promise there won't be fighting. They don't all see us as on the same level foodchain-wise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That's nothing surprising. I would hope we could get along safely, but, with any luck, I may be able to assist you on the return portion of our adventure!

[That's a big "if," but she's hoping. So very hoping. It's the only part of this place that has any true connection to the land, or whatever passes for "the land" around here. She hopes she can find something there that will act as at least a halfway-decent focus.]

[Maybe she can even communicate with the residents of that sector, but she knows that's questionable. Talking to dragons is one thing. It's not like she can speak with beasts of the wood.]

[So many questions, no answers, but that has never dented her determination.]

Unless, of course, you'd prefer to clean my closet for me, but I'd hate to rob Petrov of the opportunity.

	The sector is fine. [Especially if it keeps someone from going in alone.] But why would you only be able to assist on the way back? Are you looking for something in there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-05-31 02:54 am UTC (link)
	Indeed! It's rather a wild whim, but I'm used to wild whims leading me to at least a chance of finding what I'm looking for. [Yenyoji whispers, again.] To harness my magic, there's something I need. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-05-31 01:43 pm UTC (link)
	And what's that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-06-11 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	A "focus"! Something with proper aetherial quality to it, be it stone or bone. I'll know it when I see it. So, a friendly walk through unfriendly territory it is! [Yenyoji claps at her own statement, in excitement.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-06-11 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	Stones we've got. I'll take your word on aetherial qualities. Today might not be the best day if it can wait. [Because she won't be the best company.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-06-11 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	[Yenyoji groans in disappointment. She does not even try to hide it.] Very well. I'll be patient. [She very much sounds sulky that she has to be patient.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-06-11 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	[Maybe that disappointment will change her mind.] Great. [Apparently not.] Tomorrow maybe? [~~Or maybe after the flood?~~] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-06-11 11:27 pm UTC (link)
	Certainly! Let's see what tomorrow brings! Assuming I don't get distracted by some fascinating new exhibit at the museum all day. [That is, of course, a natural danger to consider. ~~And not that flood thing.~~] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-06-12 03:04 am UTC (link)
	Sure. It could be about cheese cloth or looms or something and then how could you resist? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-07-01 11:49 pm UTC (link)
	Indeed! Such rich topics could easily consume an entire day's worth of attention and learning! Or, perhaps, a belly ache, should a cheese cloth exhibit come with exotic types of cheese. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-07-07 03:46 am UTC (link)
	Okay, now it actually sounds like a good idea. Especially if they give you pizza to eat it on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-07-08 01:28 am UTC (link)
	[Her eyebrows go up with Absolute Interest.] Ah, are we calling for a redux of Pie Day, then? Or is Pizza Day its own distinct celebration? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-07-08 02:28 am UTC (link)
	Can't really go wrong either way. Pizza is better though. [That's science.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-07-10 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Ah, words to inspire a brawl, if I've ever heard them! Fortunately, all the dishes here are so equally delectable that I cannot but agree to disagree. They're all glory. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-07-10 01:53 am UTC (link)
	Usually if I want dessert I'll go for ice cream. Is the food at home not so good? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-07-10 02:07 am UTC (link)
	It's certainly passable! [Though Yen realizes that implies that Kitty finds this food normal, and she shakes her head in surprise at the idea.] It's a tad more work to get the exotic and heavily-spiced meals here. We eat like sultans and sultanas! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-07-10 02:10 am UTC (link)
	[Well, yes and no. It reminds her of food from before the world fell. After that? Yes, this is much better, but she's also been eating it for months and has acclimated.] I've never had a sultan or sultana invite me over for dinner. There's a lot of everything though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	takenblack 2015-07-10 02:16 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I highly recommend being invited over to dinner by royalty. Just, don't faint during the toast. [Advice given as though it was advice that can be easily followed.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
