The kittyninja pointed to the nearby trashcan in the corner. Then he flopped into a chair backwards, his arms folded over the top and his head resting on them.

"You know, I kinda have the same problem, I think. I remember things that aren't always very clear. I have nightmares about it. From what I've been told, it all has to do with my past life. I only know a little about it... but it doesn't matter. Whatever I was before doesn't matter to me. You're what matters to me, Scarpy."

The shards thudded against the trashcan as they fell, like beats on a drum. Scarplo watched the ninja's back for a moment, letting those words hang in the air. Part of him tried to rationalize that last sentance as the words of an innocent child, but the rest recognized the trap he'd fallen into.

He resisted the urge to run; to let Sca bubble up and cuddle the ninja's brains out as she so wanted to. That would only futher confuse the situation; send up more conflicting signals, and make it a sharper betrayal. The other option was akin to trying to heal a wound by flensing the skin.

"Bohica," came as a whisper, but he knew Musashi would hear it. Then, louder, "Thank you."

Musa tilted his head and wiggled a kitty ear. "Bohica? What's that mean?"

"It means I'm between a rock and a hard place. I know something bad is coming for me... something worse than what's already come. And I don't want you to get hurt."

Not a huge lie; something was going to happen. And he didn't want the ninja getting cought in the line of fire. But Musashi was a ninja. Highly trained, capable, and competent. He's catch on to that last line.

The kittyninja suddenly leaped out of his chair and GLOMPED onto the vagabond.

"What? What? What's coming for you?!" Clingsqueeeeeeeze. "Mu, don't worry about me. Let me help you. Please? I want to protect you. I don't care if I get hurt, so long as YOU don't get hurt. But whatever it is, I'll make it sorry it ever messed with you!"

Scarplo stiffened a bit in the hug. It was an old twitch he'd developed, usually followed by a swift punch to the gut and a knee to the rib cage. His arm tensed, and he slowly, carefully, wrapped them around the ninja.

"Alright." He knew Musashi wasn't a china doll. He knew that he couldn't actually do much damage to the ninja if the guard was up. But right then, right there... there was no guard. He'd go slowly, carefully.

He held him, pushed her face away, and tried to convince himself that this was a situation he could control.

"Really? Really?! Thank you!" Musa meeeeeewled with kitteny joy. He snuggled up in Scarplo's arms and purrrrrrrred and nuuuuuzzled at him.

"I'll try not to get in your way. I'll try not to mess anything up. I just want to help. I want to be by your side, always." Wigglewiggle went the kitty ears. "So, will we take it easy today and go see Yuki about Sca-chan tomorrow?"

He smiled over Musa's shoulder. "Yeah. Let's do that."

So, they did. The day passed without incident, and thanks to the miracle of the paraphrase, you don't have to watch it all! Let's hear it for relative time! WHOO!

Of course, the next day something important still had to happen.

AND LO, IT WAS THE NEXT DAY.

Musa was already up and busy in the kitchen, cookin' breakfast and listening to death-metal coming from a stereo he stuck in the corner. He wore an apron covered in a smiley lobster-print, and DANCED as he cooked STUFF.

Scarp knocked on the kitchen wall before trying to enter. "So... when do we meet Yuki?"

by **Musashi** » Sun Jul 30, 2006 9:43 pm

Musa skittered to the stereo and turned it off with his foot. "Very soon!"

He grabbed the plate o' foodness from the counter and stuck it on the table. The plate held two pancakes at the top, with a curved line of bacon underneath. Smileyface breakfast! :D

"I had somfin already. But YOU, mister, need to come sit down and eat your breakfast! We can go once you finish~"

by **scarplo** » Sun Jul 30, 2006 9:47 pm

Scarp entered, sat and started chewing on the bacon. "You've already eaten?"

by **Musashi** » Sun Jul 30, 2006 9:50 pm

Musa went behind Scarp's chair and hugged him gently. "Yes, I did! Just cereal. I'm too excited to eat very much. We'll have Sca with us, and then we can all be happy together! Like a happy family, yeah~?"

by **scarplo** » Mon Jul 31, 2006 12:39 am

Scarp coughed, and swallowed his bite of bacon. "Uh... where's the syrup?"

by **Musashi** » Mon Jul 31, 2006 12:43 am

"Nyu! Syrup!" The kittyninja dashed off to the fridge, or at least whatever they used that was like a fridge, and came back with some syrup and a glass of milk.

"Here! Eat eat, you need vitamins and minerals and things~" Musa nuzzled at Scarp. "I'll take good care of you!"
