The cat is up to something
Kak: *flies in through Nuala's apartment window and settles into the nest on the corner of the couch* Big day! Big day!
Nuala: *pokes her head out of the kitchen; something meaty is cooking on the stove, judging by the smell* Big day? What's going on?
Kak: I found where me and Awk buried the coins we got from that redhead!
Nuala: *blinks* Coins? From a redhead. *thinking back to Theoden, she raises an eyebrow* What did you do?
Kak: We told him that the world ended and ravens took over and we would save him for a price. *birdy cackle and hops up onto the counter to start pulling the dirty coins from his purse to count*
Nuala: *bites her lip to keep from laughing, because that's actually hilarious* And he believed you?
Kak: He said he'd have more when he got paid!
Kak: *doing the math that Nuala's been teaching him to figure out what he'll need for loaves of bread for him and Awk* *nudges the semi-proper coinage over to Nuala* Here. So you can carry our food.
Nuala: *takes the coins and pats her shoulder* Come on, then. But you know, you don't have to con people out of their money to stay fed. Even if they are from Rohan.
Kak: People like that deserve it.
Nuala: Maybe. But we don't want to cause too much trouble, all right? *she pockets the change and goes to finish cooking up her meal* You want a bit, since you're here? Then we can go to market.
Kak: Sounds good. *hops over to smell it*
Window: *rattling*
Dagnir: *shoves himself through it*
Kak: NOOO! *up into the lights*
Nuala: *equally surprised, but not as upset* Kak, calm down. He's not gonna hurt you. *she wouldn't let him, anyway. To Dagnir, obviously not expecting an answer* And what brings you here?
Dagnir: *does a sort of full-body shrug and climbs up onto a chair to look at Nuala, measuring her up*
Kak: Don't trust him!
Nuala: Unless he's secretly a werecat monster I doubt he's going to do anything horrible to me. *finishing off her cooking, she arranges some meat, fruits, and veggies on a plate for herself, as well as setting some on a smaller plate for Kak on the counter. She sits at her table and starts to eat*
Kak: *angry noises, won't come down*
Dagnir: *moves to eat Kak's meat*
Nuala: Oi, that's not for you. *picks up the plate* I'll give you some if you want it, but that's his.
Dagnir: *will settle for that, rubs up against her legs*
Kak: Hrmph. If he takes liberties, who knows how often he'll be coming here!
Nuala: *rolls her eyes* I'm sure he gets fed elsewhere. *pondering aloud* I wonder how he even found my apartment.
Kak: Who would feed that thing? I really wonder. Should be tossed in the river!
Dagnir: *shows Kak his ass in response*
Nuala: *putting a little meat in a small dish and setting it on the floor* He belongs to someone, you know. His master was concerned I was going to eat him.
Dagnir: *digs in*
Kak: That's insane. He'd eat US.
Nuala: *laughs as she sits back down to her lunch* I doubt there'd be room in there for two ravens and a human, don't you?
Kak: Room for two ravens. *darkly*
Dagnir: *purrs, deciding he really does like Nuala and that she'd be a good choice for his plans*
Nuala: *to Kak, firmly* I would never let that happen, do you hear? I'll take care of you and Awk as best I can and no cat will have you.
Kak: All it takes is one bite!
Dagnir: *finishes and climbs into Nuala's lap, rubbing his cheeks against her to scent mark her*
Kak: Ugh, he's tenderizing you.
Nuala: *suddenly downcast* Don't say that.
Kak: Which part?
Nuala: Just... all of it. You're not going to die if I can help it, all right?
Kak: ... *hops down onto her shoulder and preens her hair* I plan to live to a ripe old age, Nuala.
Dagnir: *doesn't make a go at the raven, still purring like an engine*
Nuala: You do that. *absently petting Dagnir and kind of staring at her plate, becoming lost in thought for a while*
Kak: *keeps up the comforting preening*
Dagnir: *is good for one thing, being big and warm*
Nuala: *eventually comes around and quickly eats her lunch, passing little bites and shreds to either Kak or Dagnir before she finishes up* All right, then. To market?
Kak: To market! Leave the cat in the river.
Dagnir: *half-swipe at Kak, but not fast enough to catch the bird*
Nuala: Come on, you two, knock it off. *picking up the dishes, then throwing on a coat and slinging her bag over her shoulder* Let's be off, then. Hop to it.
Kak: *flies back onto her shoulder while Dagnir follows behind*
