There's something everyone should see.

We could use all eyes at the bunker. It's...

I'm not even sure how to explain it.

Come, if you're curious.

Bring alcohol. You'll need it.

[ She snorts a laugh, and Selina meows imperiously. ]

Pet her, you dingus. I’m pretty sure getting scratched is just an accepted risk.

[zomboligist]

Is it, though?

[ He really doesn't know what to do with cats, because it's either a no-animal or a dog household, as far as he's concerned. Still, he is feeling pretty stressed, so he leans over and sort of taps the animal twice on the head. ]

Pat pat?

[ And yes, he did say that, because he doesn't want to get kitty-bird-mauled. ]

[ Steph snorts and rolls her eyes at the same time Selina mwwrts her disapproval. Steph reaches out a hand to grab Ravi’s wrist and force him to pet her properly. ]

[ He makes a face because this is how you get claws inserted into your body, though the cat (Selina, maybe he really ought to use her name) doesn't seem to mind him. He keeps going, a tentative and slow stroke, namely because it seems to be working. ]

I miss the tail wagging as a sign that I'm not about to get mauled.

[ Though, maybe he should shut up, because it really isn't so bad. ]

[ After a moment, the cat starts to purr. Her eyes narrow, but she keeps them open to watch the suspicious stranger. ]

I think that's what hissing and purring are for.

[zomboligist]

I mean, I still wouldn't trust a purring cat not to slash my throat. I mean, what if that's what made it happy?

[ He's being very facetious given that he's enjoying the way he's petting Selina and how it is starting to calm his mind, leaving the list of names sort of lingering at the back of his mind. ]

You're lucky you didn't pet her and find out that she accidentally shocks you or something.

I wasn't really given much choice. I let her into my room and when I woke up she was wedged against my arm.
