[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 nods, gaze dropping back to the not-gun in his hand.]

Pretty used to handling them at this point. Feels kinda weird not having one around.

[And by weird she means it feels like she's a little too underprepared.]

Guess I got my hopes up when it seemed like you might've had one.

[ Pretty used to handling them? This woman must have some combat experience. Seems like there are a handful of them in the school, mixed in with the more ordinary "students".

Minato glances down at the Evoker in his hand again. ]


...this, though -- it'll be a proper weapon again someday.

[ Or at least he hopes so. ]

Oh?

[Her attention drifts back up to his face, eyebrows raised a little with interest.]

If it's not actually a gun, what's it supposed to do?

It lets me call for help.

[ Which is a bit vague, he realizes, so he adds: ]

It lets me summon friends for help.

[ Sometimes those friends take on the shape of demons, angels, and gods. ]

So like, a flare gun?

[Surely he means it signals to them somehow... Surely!]
memori3s: (22)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-03 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ ??? Flare gun? Don't be silly Amane...

Minato shakes his head. ]


No. They're... here.

[ He taps his forehead with an index finger. ]
parttimesoldier: (048)

[personal profile] parttimesoldier 2025-08-03 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Just. Raising an eyebrow.]

In your... head? I know we're not talking imaginary friends, so...

[Unless he is?? How would one even weaponize that.]
memori3s: (49)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-05 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ Boy he really wishes he could just show her... ]

They're not imaginary, no.

[ .................. ]

They're... pieces of me.

[ sweats ]

I...

[okay. sure.]

Alright. Am I off base assuming this is something magic-related?

[If she's learned one thing from being here, it's that Magic Is A Thing where a lot of the others come from, so...]
memori3s: (03)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-07 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh good she gets it. Sorta! ]

Yes.

[ Based on her tone, it sounds like magic isn't that common wherever she's from... ]

Is that... unusual?
parttimesoldier: (016)

[personal profile] parttimesoldier 2025-08-07 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs, looking a little sheepish.]

Never knew anything like it was actually possible, before I got here.

[She's a girl of science, not magic.]
memori3s: (pic#17807446)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-09 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ Why not both!! ]

Oh.

[ Then again, it's not like he was always aware of magic's existence. ]

...actually, most people where I'm from didn't know anything about magic either.

[ So she's in pretty good company. ]
parttimesoldier: (133)

[personal profile] parttimesoldier 2025-08-09 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Why not indeed!]

Oh yeah? [Quirks an eyebrow.] Sounds like pretty exclusive club to be in, then. Must be pretty cool.
memori3s: (100)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-11 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It was pretty exclusive... Whether or not it was "cool" definitely depends on one's definition of that term. Although now that he's thinking about it, Junpei thought it was initially. So maybe that was true? ]

I haven't thought about that... But it was pretty useful.

[ For battle! More mundane uses of the magic, however, would have been more helpful in his humble opinion. ]

[personal profile] parttimesoldier 2025-08-11 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I hope you can get it working again, then.

[A nod to the gun-shaped object in his hand.]

Then maybe I can meet those [not imaginary!] friends of yours.
memori3s: (17)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-12 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope so too.

[ It would make chasing off the school spooks much easier. ]

I'll let you know if it suddenly starts working again.
parttimesoldier: (288)

[personal profile] parttimesoldier 2025-08-14 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds like a plan!

[Suzuha grins, and then a moment later blinks as she realizes something.]

Oh! I've been going by Hanabi here, by the way. Nice to meetcha!
memori3s: (10)

[personal profile] memori3s 2025-08-16 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Hanabi... It's a nice name. ]

You can call me Koromaru.

[ It's just one syllable longer than her alias. Surely that's not too bad? ]
