Hey, this is the inbox of Kozume Kenma! I'm probably not here!
Leave a message and I'll text back when I cat. Probably pretty quickly.

Oh, he doesn't.

[HIisssSSSS].

Hooty is the house demon my mentor Eda lives with. And...I actually still can't accurately explain who or WHAT he is. But he did help bring me and my girlfriend together and is really sweet mostly!

When he isn't creepy, of course.

[anxiouscat]

Right... Some kind of, strange magical creature? How powerful are house demons?

[ He's slowly forming a picture here, though it still seems a bit wild. ]

Ah, there's a tough challenge ahead... Watch out for that.

[a_cute_batata]

Apparently powerful enough to get your girlfriend and bring her to our basement.

[And Amity hadn't even BEEN Luz's girlfriend until Hooty intervened so...there was that strange fact, that they were a couple largely thanks to Hooty].

But how powerful Hooty is will always be a mystery.

I've learned to take the good and the bad with him.

[anxiouscat]

I'm still not used to all that magic stuff. It sounds like a really interesting place.

[ Fantastical is probably the word. He leans back at last, hand now casually resting over stringbean while warm frame leans towards Luz, watching her play-

Slowly, silence falls again. And Kenma's happy to watch her play until she's chilled out and a bit more unwound after a stressful week or two. ]

It's always rough for people when they're adjusting to coming from a world that isn't like that. The Boiling Isles blew my mind when I first arrived, and a little afterward too, if I'm honest about it.

[String bean was kind of wrapping herself around Kenma, and seemed to be watching the two of them with interest. It was Luz, though, that interrupted the silence after a bit].

Thank, Kenma. I feel a little more in control now than I did a few days ago, if that makes sense.

[anxiouscat]

[ His movements slow and almost stop the more Stringbean wraps around him, a bit more careful with the not-snake coiling his arms and sides a bit. Just a hint of a smile down.

His eyes peek, lifting a brow and tilting to match Stringbean's gaze as if asking a question... and then it follows over to Luz. ]

Yeah... It makes sense to me.

I'm glad to hear... I was worried about you for a while.

[a_cute_batata]

[Stringbean knows what she likes, and right now it was happily wrapping around the cat boy, and purring lightly now. She does look over at the boy, then yawns and goes back to snoozing].

I thought it might.

I'm not surprised. It was pretty clear that I wasn't myself then.

[anxiouscat]

[ Blink blink. Snug as a noddle can be, it seems! This is fine, he's fairly warm too. Since he's not going anywhere anytime soon, he just leans to give Luz a gentle shoulder bump. ]

Yeah. The normal you is way more fun.

[ And his gaze drifts back to the game she's playing, seeing how far she's gotten. ]

Sidenote: been playing #BLUD, great game! Luz would love it!

[a_cute_batata]

[Stringbean is not called that haphazardly! She intends to live up to her name]!

I don't know if I'd ever call any version of me "normal" but I definitely prefer that to possessed!

[She's already at the third level: when Luz plays a game, she is all in].

Ooh- it looks very Cartoon Network!

[anxiouscat]

[ Very String, Much Bean.

He's content with being coiled, this is fine. Lazy afternoon moods. It's kindof nice after everything that's happened. ]

Mmh- definitely. Hopefully next month is a bit quieter-

[ He had to go and say it, huh? ]

Re: Ooh- it looks very Cartoon Network!

[a_cute_batata]

[Indeed.

Who doesn't enjoy a lazy afternoon? A day where you don't have to do anything]?

Don't say that aloud! It might-

Luz sighed].

I mean, we're probably already doomed, to be honest.

[anxiouscat]

[ Even before he got cat powers, Kenma's usually down for a lazy day of basking. ]

Ah-... Probably. We'll see.

[ He turns, offering a lighter smile. ]

But we can get through it.

We can end it here if you want!

[a_cute_batata]

[Luz was unused to that, considering what her life had been like, but she was starting to find more of an appreciation for those times].

I hope not. A little less doom is appreciated!

Though in this place, I think we might be reaching a bit of a lull. It probably won't kick in all crazy for, like, another week.

A good point to fade!

[anxiouscat]

[ While Kenma likes interesting things, he'd generally prefer those things not be life threatening all the time! ]

I hope so... It'd be nice to relax for a bit again.

[ And with that, they fade away into more casual gaming, hanging out, snacks.

They can watch a movie later. Just a cozy night. ]
