[early morning cat posting]

Who: everyone
When: July 25
Where: class 3-C
What: a few visitors!
Warnings: none!

[On Friday morning at 6:00 a.m. on the dot, the student body is awoken not by the bell, but by the sound of meowing echoing over the intercom.

[It's not just the PA system, either. Soft, gentle, and very cute mewls fill the classroom hallways; distant on floors one and two, but much louder on floor three. Intrepid explorers who follow the noise will find that one of the third floor classrooms has been overtaken by a pack of ghostly cats!]

[Each creature is the size of a normal housecat, and has the mannerisms of one. That is, they will attempt to hop into your lap for some prime cuddling time, ears and tails flicking adorably all the while. Their bodies are a pale, ghostly white, and their eyes glow a soft, gentle blue. Although they are translucent, they are still solid to the touch, and they feel just like a normal cat does. Soft fur and everything! Aren't they precious? Aren't they just so stinkin' cute??? DON'T YOU JUST WANT TO SMOOSH THEIR ROUND LI'L KITTEN FACES??]

[So long as characters are kind to the cat spirits, the Nekomata are completely harmless. They just want to play and snuggle!! Although. . .]

[Anyone who touches a cat spirit will find themselves hit with a sudden need for physical contact. This can range from something small (desiring a high five) to something bigger (needing to CUDDLE THE SHIT outta someone). Being surrounded by more than one Nekomata means the compulsion becomes stronger, too! One cat means it can probably be safely ignored, but five?? If you don't HOLD SOMEONE'S HAND RIGHT THIS SECOND you JUST MAY DIE!!]

[Oh, so you don't like cats? No problem! The Nekomata are mischievous creatures, and they WILL leap onto people's backs and shoulders without warning. Being cat spirits, they can also teleport from one place to another, so. . . you can be minding your own business one second, blink, and then be staring into the eyes of a cute cat spirit perched on your lap the next.]

[The Nekomata will be drawn towards members of Anzen more than anyone else per their target lock curse, but they are excited to shower literally anyone in a bit of cute kitty affection, regardless of their homeroom]

[Please let me know if your character is being violent and/or aggressive towards the Nekomata. Otherwise, enjoy some compulsive physical bonding with a cute ghostly flair!]

[she shakes her head, bringing her hand down.]

It's alright. I'm prone to headaches, but it's nothing I can't handle.

Does this school exacerbate them?

No, not really. If anything, it was worse before I arrived here, so far.

I see. If only we had a proper doctor here who might be able to look you over.

The concern is appreciated, but I think it's fairly minor compared to the rest of this situation.

Perhaps — and yet, not if it will cull your focus at the most egregious of times.

[You know, like in the middle of a ghost attack. Holmes has noticed, at times, that her focus seems rather far away; is a headache truly to be attributed to that?]

[a small shrug.]

Perhaps. At the very least, I've gotten used to focusing on more than the pain by now, so it hasn't been an issue. If that changes, I will reevaluate.

[Hmmm. He wishes to press more, but she seems to only drip-feed him personal information, and Holmes gets the feeling that trying to squeeze blood from a stone will get him nowhere.]

At any rate. Do not push yourself so far that you physically overexert yourself. That is a rule you should adhere to regardless of headaches or otherwise.

[One that he will not follow himself, but do as he says, not as he does.]
