He hesitated but only for a moment before he answered that. “Annwn, Page of Earth.” He replied the word and its proper accents rolling off his tongue. “Though I understand I can go there, I think it’s understandable that I haen’t tried yet.” He gave a small laugh. Some people associated Annwn with something like the English Avalon, and they weren’t wholly wrong in that, others simply said it was like the fairylands, but some also compared it to something like hell or purgatory. So many scattered descriptions and he wondered in truth if any were remotely accurate if he was a PAGE of such a place. He’d never heard mention of such a thing, but then again he had met a Knight called Camelot, who was also a librarian who wasn’t wholly fond of reading. Stranger things had happened in the world than finding that Annwn might be a real place.

"I don't think it's understandable at all." Her words came out quick, crisp, her expression somehow -- annoyed with him for even saying it. She stood, shifted, then settled in again to go for more tuna fish, now speaking with her mouth full. It wasn't polite, but. He could just dela with it. Laoise was a cat.
"If I could go there, I would in a second." It came out muffled, a bit nom-nom-nommy. She seemed entirely unaware of this fact. "Who wouldn't?"

“I would suppose because it’s associated with hell among other things.” He said dryly in return. Say nothing of his past history of ‘delusion’ that he had struggled with after the accident. He fought even now with the idea that he’d wake up and find all this a dream. As delightful and strange as it was to find talking cats, magic, and knights against dark forces it was all too easy to believe it would be yanked away again, that he might wake up once again to find himself looking at a stranger in the mirror, a new stranger not even the one he’d become passingly used to.
“Well, If you wanted to go with then, you sound enthused enough and I’m sure I could use the guidance being little but a page.”

Laoise shot him a look, licking the corner of her mouth as she sat back. The sandwich had been decimated, now only the crust remaining, all of the chicken and mayo licked off of it. She probably wasn't going to eat slightly-moist, chicken salad-free bread crusts. Probably. But trying to take it away could mean risking his hand.
"I would go. But not today." She sniffed, at that, pausing to groom one side of her whiskers. "If you're so afraid to go on your own..."

“Oh? Why not today?” He grinned “Because I’m Leary of playing with magic or because I’ve used up my chicken salad favors today.” He grinned at her and offered a gentle hand to rub at the ears.

She sniffed at the hand, ears back and eyes narrowed -- and then allowed him to pet her, head tipped down under his fingers as she licked her lips again. No purring, not just yet, but given a little time and she'd get there.
"No." It was rumbly already, her paws shifting against the counter, head shoved more forcibly inte his arm now, against his side. His hand was hers. His wrist was hers. His stomach was hers. hers. "Not today, because it's time for a nap. Make your blankets nice."

He gave a laugh, a deep pleasant sound that would have gone well with old taverns and good friends. “As M’lady commands.” He gave a small bow, speaking to a cat was everything he might have imagined, perhaps more charming for her attitude, though had she been human he’d likely have scowled about her demands and grumbled. The savior of many pets being too ‘cute’ to stay angry with for terribly long.
