Fyrn slowly made his way down the stairs to the basement, trying not to be seen or heard. He'd left Rouge upstairs, despite the squirrel's better judgement. He was trying carefully not to FALL down the stairs - and suceeding that, and planting his feet on the bottom, he looked around for Naraka.

*Nar sits in the middle of his pillow pile in a state of semi-meditation, only vaguely aware of the visitor who's made his way down the steps. He comes out of his stupor and calls* Yes? Who is it?

~It's me, Naraka... can I come in?~ A little late, since he's already at the bottom of the stairs, but being polite has a place and time - And Fyrn feels that this might be the right time.

*he gets up and stretches and starts stalking through the maze of storage* I don't see why not, but it might take you a while to find me. *he rounds the corner and comes into sight* Ah, I come to you. Now, Fyrn, there's something we've got to talk about..... *he leans forwards and squints his eyes* Am I crazy, or did I hear you following me last night, down the street, outside of the shop?

~Umm.... maaaaybe....~ He shuffles his feet a little, and lowers his head, ears drooping, and tail wrapping around his leg.

*naraka sighs* And what did I tell you about leaving the shop in the middle of the night to roam the streets?

~Err... not to? But you don't understand! She was sick, and I'm the only one that understood her mother, and I had to take her back to the shop and.... Ooops....~

He pulls back his ears the entire way, and looks away from Naraka. ~No onnnnne....~

*naraka stands back up straight and puts a hand to his head, deliberating on what to do. Finally he looks back over and says in a calm, quiet voice* Listen, Fyrn. You don't mind that I'm taking care of you, do you? Would you rather Saeru? I don't know what I've done to deserve your lying to me. If you're frightened that I'd get angry, well it's still no reason not to tell me what you've been up to. I'm only trying to keep you from harm and to do that, I need to know what you've been doing. Boys shouldn't have to stay in a building day after day. I'm not angry that you've been outside the shop; I'm just worried that something might happen to you. The streets aren't safe, you know that. You remember what happened the last time you invited a stranger to stay? I think it's best if I know who you've been talking to.

He whimpers very softly mentally.
~It was just a little kitten... she was sick, and her parents tried to find someone that could understand them... she... needed warmth and medicine. She was like me, and he heart was kinda strange... so I broke one of my pills in half, and gave it to her.... That's all... I was just helping... I'm sorry...~

*Nar involontarily puts a hand to his mouth* Fyrn, you can't give other animals human medicine! You don't know how it will react to them, and it's only a little kitten. I think you'd better show it to me. Where is it?

~She's up in my room, Rouge's watching her. He says he's sorry and he's not mad at you anymore, by the way...~

*he takes Fyrn by the hand and starts up the stairs, muttering absentmindedly* Oh, that's good, I suppose. Now, Fyrn... am I to understand that you can communicate with other animals?

He hangs his head, and droops his ears and tail.
~Yeah... I can talk to them, and they can talk to me... dogs, cats... birds... even Rouge. That's why I said he was talking to me. He was~
