Astral accepted the money, picking up a couple bags himself.
"Off to feed the cats?"
Astral accepted the money, picking up a couple bags himself.
"Off to feed the cats?"
“Mhm!” He replied back excitedly, smiling at him. “It’s not too far from here too so it shouldn’t take us too long.”
((Bruh the more I develop Simon as a character the more depressed I get omgggg))
(I knowwwwwwww I feel so horrible for him ;-;)
"We can take as much time as we need," Astral said with a soft smile. The boy was energetic, for sure, and it made Astral pleased to see it.
“Okay!” He smiled back at the other. “It’s not too far from here.” He said, gently taking Astral’s hand and pulling him along. They were headed back towards the same area as where Astral had first found Simon.
((I developed another part of his backstory this morning and ahhhhhhh))
Astral smiled as he followed Simon, holding the man's hand.
"Oh, yeah! I remember, you were trying to call one of the cats out when we first met."
(oh nuuuuuuuuu)
“Yep! I hadn’t seen that one very much before so it was taking awhile to coax him out.” He finally stopped walking, having reached the part of the alley he wanted apparently. He let go of Astral’s hand, grabbing the bag of treats and shaking it a bit. It took a second but one by one, cats began to appear.
((Mhm so that’ll be a future plot point maybe))
(yeeeeee perfect)
"Mm, I see…" Astral smiled softly, looking around as the cats came out.
"I've always been a fan," Astral admitted. "There such sweet creatures." He himself had a leopard as his token animal, after all.
Simon nodded, the cats rubbing up against his legs. He bent down with a smile, starting to pet them. He talked to them quietly, it seemed like he’d named every single one of them.
Astral watched silently, a soft smile on his lips. He knelt down, staying still. He knew the cats didn't know who he was, so he didn't reach out to pet any yet.
Simon looked up at Astral. “Do you want to pet one?” He asked, still smiling widely. “This one’s the friendliest.” He said, pointing at one of the cats, who was nuzzling Simon’s knee.
Nodding, Astral reached out carefully to pet the cat.
"Aww," he said softly. Maybe he should get a cat. Hell, after the baby is born, Simon might end up being a cat.
((HOMIE YOU CAN’T JUST CASUALLY THROW THAT IN THERE WTF))
Simon smiled as the cat purred softly, nuzzling Astral’s hand. Simon turned his attention back to the other cats, starting to give them treats.
(I CAN AND I WILL, SUFFER AS YOU REALIZE WHAT SIMON'S FATE WILL BE FOR AT LEAST A BIT AFTER LE BEBE IS BORN)
Astral cooed softly, smiling down at the cat.
"So precious," he said. He looked up at Simon, obviously enjoying himself.
((WTFFFFFF))
Simon had carefully pulled one of the cats into his lap, talking to it quietly in that voice you use when you’re talking to babies.
(nine mowe mondsh befowe shimon becomesh kitty-chan uwu)
Astral chuckled some. He sat down completely, pulling the cat he was petting onto his own lap. He smiled softly, looking up at Simon a moment.
"They all really like you," he noted.
((Probably about a year until Simon’s like ‘just kill me’ uwu))
He nodded. “I’ve taken care of them for awhile so they’re used to me. I like them a lot more than pretty much anyone else.” He said with a soft smile. “It’s easier for them now that there’s not as much gang violence and stuff around here.” It had all died out abruptly after the untimely and unexplained death of the local gang leader. ((uwu))
(Random stalker adding in some commentary: Maybe after Astral realizes how hard raising a kid is, he decides to human-ify Simon again (if Simon is cat-ified) and just. Make him raise the baby all on his own. It could be quite angsty for everyone in general.)
(Too bad, this is an eternal commitment òwó)
"Oh?" Astral hummed softly to himself with this new information.
"Does anyone know why it died out?"
(That would be vvy angsty, however Astral has raised chittlings before. But he's totally gonna have his baby's daddy help out)
(Oh no I fear for the children Astral has raised.)
(why do you think he called the high priestess child?)
(you know, the one he tried to have a demigod bby with)
(What-)
