The current influx of, ah, individuals- while not necessarily unusual, is still considered a deviation from status quo, yes? 

[ Muttering about time and the coinciding of the start of the month with this sudden influx-- there is a pause as he considers whether he really wants to make this a public announcement or if he wants to wander The City by himself.

Why not make use of the hundreds of eyes at his disposal? ]

I assume that everyone has their hands full, so I will make this brief. If anyone happens to spy a chubby grey tabby with yellow eyes, or an all white cat with green eyes, would you please contact me?

Much appreciated.



[ ooc: anything goes! Yusuf is cool to just talk about cats tbh ]

I'm sure they're lost without me, [ she agrees cheerfully and then her voice dips down to a whisper, like this is very confidential, ] Between you and me, they always are.

But! We can't let that keep us from making the best of a situation, right?

[ She goes quiet but after a few minutes the video clicks on. The camera wobbles a bit but otherwise, a piece of paper fills the screen. ]



Okay, wow. This art stuff is a lot harder than people make it look.

[ Certainly there's no harm in sharing such information with a projection? Even if these are all separate minds, what could telling this man about his cats affect... anything? ]

My cats, my patients, my life in general. Relocation is a difficult task at the best of times.

Sure, displaced from everything... Seems kind of lonely and all kinds of terrible, being asked to get used to something you shouldn't have to go through.

You all right, Yusuf?

Hey, I'm not lost.


...maybe a little.

Troy! [ All her putting-on-a-brave-face aside, she does sound delighted to hear his voice. ] Did you just get here too?

[crying-jock.livejournal.com]

I was here earlier.

Did you see all the stuff they have here? It's like a theme park you live in.

[baaalackhearted.livejournal.com]

Baa aa aa aa.

I woke up, I saw some fountain, there was this thing digging into my butt — [ there's a kind of whoosh in the air, as if Veronica's giving the device a small wiggle. which, you know. she is. ] and voila, here I am, O Voiceless One. Which is why I ask about the tourism board, because they really need a better PR campaign for this place.

[ she artfully leaves out the part where she's not entirely sure how she got here, because Veronica Mars and the world of a foggy memory does not lead to happyfuntimes. ]

You know, you are entirely right. The situation may not be ideal, but there is no reason for me to make it worse by feeling bad about it.

[ This is Yusuf, trying not to implode from the adorableness of that drawing. It is leagues better than anything he could do, and he has the strangest desire to hang it on his fridge and give her a gold star. ]

No- no that is actually a very accurate depiction. It is as if you channeled their spirits when they hear the treat bag rattle.

[diastereomer.livejournal.com]

You.





Are not a cat.

[baaalackhearted.livejournal.com]

Baa aa aa?

[Wants you to take it hoooooome.]

Except with way less puking and way fewer ride operators who invite you around back to show you their [ ugh ] "special prize."

audio; So who be this? Poly-ite or random from another game?

[crying-jock.livejournal.com]

So they do have better stuff behind the booths?

[diastereomer.livejournal.com]

It is not as lonely as it could be. My best mate is here, as well as his- [ Yusuf waves his hand, ] friend, accomplice, headache- whatever it is they are calling themselves now.

But I have responsibilities- patients who depend on me and people who... need me. Hopefully, you understand?

[ She tucks the paper safely away and turns the camera around to herself, smiling and tucking her hair behind her ear. ]

Oh, good. I hope that helps get the word out. It's easy enough to feel overwhelmed in this place when you're a person. I'd hate to try it as a cat.

[awfullymodern.livejournal.com]

Absolutely, I do.

So you're a doctor?

[diastereomer.livejournal.com]

Good goat. Go away...

[ Yusuf is, if possible, 148% sure that Arthur might actually perma-bitchface if he came home to a goat in his flat.

Yusuf is not ready for that kind of responsibility. ]

[baaalackhearted.livejournal.com]

...Baa aa aa...

[Sad goat. Don't shame a sad goat. (Shame the sad goat).]

[diastereomer.livejournal.com]

Just... worried what might be going on topside.

[ This isn't Yusuf's usual cant, and the tight knot of worry fits him like a coat that is two sizes too small. He's not made for this, so he adds, ] The more I try to think around this place, the more complicated things become.

[signatures]

I hear you.

There's no proper sense to it, anyway. Been trying to think of another method of kicking up- but if it doesn't work, well, that's another problem to deal with.

audio; just a random popping in! :)

[yokoonomuch.livejournal.com]

I know I'm not going to look, and you shouldn't either. [ She sniffs primly. ] It will just encourage them.

[diastereomer.livejournal.com]

Self-employed pharmaceutical manufacturer. [ True... mostly. ]

And yourself?

audio; Poly-ite. Which one? Mystery!

[crying-jock.livejournal.com]

But what if it's something awesome? Like a monkey...


...I miss Annie's Boobs....

audio; now i'm going to be sitting here trying to guess which one!

[yokoonomuch.livejournal.com]

I'm sure the monkey -- whose name we do not mention -- is fine, Troy. It's probably better if he isn't here, with so many people around. Someone could step on him.
