... Thanks.
[He'll head off to go shower and change his clothes, then.]

[A little while after the announcement, Zelgadis is at McNaldo's, apparently gathering some food into a paper bag with a big happy face on it. His clothes look clean again! No more rips, either.
From somewhere out of view, a tiny voice can be heard going mew! mew! mew!]
Stop.
[It does not stop. He finishes packing the bag and turns to go... when he sees Rynlan. He just sighs by way of greeting.]

Yeah. Good thing it's not too picky.
[If the insistent mews are any indication, it seems very eager. On closer inspection, it would appear the kitten is burrowed in his cloak, as there's a wriggling lump over his shoulder.
He notices that body language, though.]
... You all right?

[good-- the kitten should do fine, then.
but, well, as for the question, he just huffs out a little sigh and shakes his head.]
No. [little difficult to fake it, when his ears are very good at giving it away.]
Suppose there's our answer for whether anyone would continue what he started.

[lifehack: just cover your whole face and body and then nobody has to know your emotions!]
... Never really doubted it would come to this. This is Hell. A lot of us were already killers to begin with.

[He's quiet for a few moments.]
Did you speak with her much?

... I see.
[too bad this guy has no idea how to comfort people. there's a silence while he thinks of what to say to that.]
... Make sure you get something to eat while you're here. You'll need your strength tomorrow.

Good.
[As if realizing it's being ignored, the kitten starts wriggling and mewing again.]
... Guess I should deal with this.

[He thinks about it for a moment.]
... Sure. I was just going to take this back to the dorm.
[Might as well let the cat-lover who maybe needs some emotional healing tag along.]

[see this is why he thinks zelgadis is chill.]
I'll just be a minute, then.
[while he grabs a sandwich or something... it's fast food, it's fine. he's ready quickly enough, returning with a bag in hand.]
Shall we? Can't leave your furry little friend waiting too long.

[Off they go! Zelgadis grabs a plate from the dormitory kitchen, and in the common room, he sets it down on the floor. Then he pulls the kitten out from its hiding place and puts it down. It immediately resumes mewing at him.]
Yeah, yeah...
[He'll open up the takeout bag and pull out the fish part of a F*let o' F*sh.]
It's not exactly freshly-caught, but it's fish.

[Zelgadis sits too. He breaks up the breaded fish into smaller pieces, which he places on the plate. The kitten eagerly starts tearing at it.]
Don't know what I'll do with this little creature, honestly...

They make for good company. I've always thought so, anyway-- they're independent little things by nature, so they spend time with you because they want to.
[he's propping his elbow on his knee, chin resting in his palm, as he watches the kitten eat with a little smile.]

If it's so independent, why does it scratch at the door and make a mess of the room whenever I leave it alone for a while?
