Higgs looked up over the table at the cat, before taking another slice of his pizza. "Now I've seen everything." he said between mouthfuls and a grin. "A fucking talking cat."
"Look, a man has to eat. I got promised one of these pizzas when I arrived and unfortunately dead gods got in the way. I did scare him, sure'n I did. But the other guy, I didn't attack. I defended myself after he threw fire at me!" Higgs wiped his hands. "I just went to talk to him."
"This is a neat trick. What are you like...? A robot or something?" Higgs' eyes widened briefly as he responded to the cat. "And can your tests wait until I finish or are you gonna scratch my ankles and hiss?"
