Welcome to Gaia! ::

A kitten he may have been, but even with his cat senses he wasn't too lost with the idea of 'go find Cass to cuddle' to ignore the larger fact that every time in the past when Hunters had been changed, something tired to kill them.

Marcus knew the pattern. It was only a matter of time.

Thankfully, if there was anyone who would know about the state and security of the island it would be the one who ran the surveillance. Guessing that he would also be confined to a kitten state, Marcus went towards the office that typically held the ex-mist assistant now turned lead. Meowing loudly before he pawed at the door, the fluffy tailed Marcus hoped the man he sought would be able to give him some good news.

<Lance? You in? If so, I really hope you can understand me otherwise this is going to be more difficult than initially thought of.>

Give him a little credit Lance, he may not have been one your girls, but he wasn't usually one who came with tons of problems. Unless you know.. he smuggled a dog onto the island in a joy induced feeling of thinking it was a good idea.

<Well Lance, glad to see the lead life is treating you well.> Marcus did his best to close the door behind him without actually shutting them in.
Opening doors as a cat was hard.

<Sorry to dissapoint you though. Just me, Marcus that is.> He stretched, tail puffing out even more. < Wondering if you know the state of the island. Apparently that Taym guy is still human, but everyone I've seen so far, is a cat.. including you.> A cat in wheels no less.

<The barriers and everything still up and running smoothly? Ever other time we've gotten changed something has happened. Figure this time I'd check in.>

His tail kept flicking back and forth until Marcus finally snapped for a second, somersaulting a jump to grab his own tail.

He hit at it for a while, then let it go realizing that he was acting more cat like by the minute.

<Er, sorry, where were we?>

As Lance gestured towards the computer, Marcus nodded and sat himself down. <Yeah, I see it. Why? Is it broken?> Marcus meowed and resistsed the urge to hit it.

<Or is it what turned us all into cats because I honestly was betting that is was Mark again.>

Ah, well, that did explain why it wasn't flashing and making sounds. Still, Marcus hit it. A few times, before attacking the wires momentarily. Then he realized again, kitten cravings.

<............> He was more controlled with himself. He can't give in. He shouldn't give in.

But... cables.....


He swat at them a few more times.

<Think I could try? I mean, I could try to hunt down Mark. All I'd probably need to do is follow the smell of stale booze right?>

<...........> Marcus gave Lance a long stare.
<I forgot about that part.> Ears drooped as that reality sunk in. <Of all the times when you need the guy- he's turned in what he claims he wants most...>

Slumping into the nest of cables and cords, Marcat looked and began to paw at a few of the hanging wires.

<Sometimes I think if I don't worry, no one will. As for me and Cass....> He meowed sadly. <We're.. better. She misses Dove though.>

There was a fair bit of kitten wiggling in cables and biting them as if they might fight back.

<I know enough to not break then if that's what's required. Else I'd just ask Gale or someone.>

Upside down looking at Lance, Marcus mewed rather pathetically. <I messed up, then when I tried to make up I didn't think about what'd happen to Dove and then Cass had to deal with that and now we don't have our baby anymore. You know Cass, she gets attached; getting her baby only to give her baby up-> Another sad meow.

<I wanted to make her happy, but I just made things worse. Now valentines is today and for all I know we might be stuck as kittens.>

<I refuse to spend all of valentines day as a kitten. I had plans.>

Marcus swat at Lance trying to hiss and spit but not sounding very intimidating. <I know what happens! I was just so.. JOY doped up that all I could think about is what would make her happy. It seemed like a good idea. Until she started crying and I realized it wasn't.>

Marcus now fully immersed into the cables purred at therir embrace.

<I wouldn't mind Cass as a human and me as a kitten. Just for a few hours. She'd probably cuddle you too. She's a softy, she really is, you know?> He scooted himself over to the lead.

<....I doubt it. I mean when we became kids and girls and all that other stuff our bodies changed but outfits... not so much.>

<At least this time I won't return wearing a bra. Being naked isn't the worst thing that could happen.>

Marcus did more sad meows. He didn't like old yeller. <It's true though! She was.. she was so happy but angry but sad and I ******** up so big but man-> He laid in his nest of cables. <She really wanted to keep her. They were too perfect together Lance. Purrrrfect> The real purr that escaped him made Marcus stop wiggling in cables, stand up, and remove himself from his kitten antics.

The purr was too much.

<See that's part of the problem Lance. I try too hard sometimes. > He pawed at the kitty chair. Spinny spinners.

Spinning.

<It's not like making out solves everything.>
