34... not again

[atouchofstrife]

Alright. Lestat. Your cat is starting his stupid ass tricks again. There's stuff missing out of my room.

Edit: Forgot to mention, but those people working for the delivery service need to come in an hour early on Monday. I want to go over a few ideas with you.

A sight to behold. Let me get changed and I will be right there.

Mn.

[Cloud's at his desk, wearing a loose pair of sleeping pants and writing while the tiny kitten is scuffing about a pile of paper in the wire basket.]

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

[Lestat walks in moments later dressed in, surprise!, a pair of dark jeans. His shirt is a midnight blue and the shoes a shiny black leather. His eyes watch the kitten fondly before he comes the rest of the way in.]

I believe she has made your room her home.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

[Cloud looks up and doesn't openly gape but makes an expression like he never expected that outfit on Lestat.]

I think so too. She likes waking me up by biting my toes.

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

Perhaps she thinks you should cover your feet better.

[He smiles at the look and leans on the edge of the desk.]

You look surprised.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

She could be thinking that.

[And the kitten hops out and starts chasing after a ball of paper, skidding across the floor and banging into his foot locker.]

Jeans are a bit different... right?

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

[He laughs but doesn't make it clear if it's to the answer or the kitten.]

I have worn them in the past. Just not in the City so far.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

[Kitten pounces the paper again and goes skidding off in the other direction and Cloud just shakes his head, reaching down to catch said kitten before she ran into his foot.]

Huh. I guess that explains why I never seen them before.

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

That is exactly the reason actually.

[Lestat reaches out to pet the kitten then crosses his arms to look at the writing.]

What are you doing?

[ooc: Okay...sleep time right now!]

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Just trying to get my thoughts down for my business.


[ooc; Night!]

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

And how is that going?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

It's going. [Cloud shrugs and sits back,picking up the kitten who starts chewing on his fingers.] I never did this kind of stuff before.

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

Then hire another to do it.

[He says it as if it is the simplest solution in the world.]

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

[Cloud snorts and glances over at Lestat.]

Easy for you to say. I don't trust any of the people here... outside those I live with and the two I know from home.

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

Perhaps it is time to start trusting others.

[Lestat smiles and moves to stand behind Cloud to more easily look at the paper.]

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Some people aren't worth it.

[Cloud's writing is messy, cramped and the list seems to be a rambling about work hours, pay rates and delivery times.]

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

And yet some are. Very much so.

[He leans down as he says the words. Only, for once Lestat isn't doing it for intentional seduction. He's merely curious.]

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Like you and your strays?

[It's almost like Cloud's trying to figure out a postal system for the city, but without the stamps.]

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

You two or the animals?

[Lestat laughs softly.]

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Umm, both?

[The kitten decides to climb up Cloud's shoulder for a nap.]

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

[Lestat pets the kitten as he keeps reading, taking his time rather than using his powers.]

Horatio isn't a stray actually. I bought him. But otherwise, certainly.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I need to get a truck or something like that first.

[Cloud glances up and chews on his pencil for a moment.]

You really don't like being alone, do you?

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

[Lestat blinks at Cloud with surprise in his eyes. The look quickly melts away but it was definitely there.]

I do not...

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

[Cloud's pretty surprised by catching Lestat off guard like that, and it shows.]

I had wondered if it was a story or not.

[vampbratprince.livejournal.com]

[Lestat straightens and is suddenly there leaning against the desk again.]

Immortality is a lonely existence.
