That would be twice that you made me a wet horse. [she informs him where she is a bag of bones being piggybacked along.]
Horses can't go in the bathtub, the hooves would break the - whatever tubs are made of. Actually, would it even fit? I should try. For science reasons.
Everyone needs to stop blaming me for being thrown into a lake.
[ he's not actually miffed about it, but yknow. he'll bring nimona over to the Very Fancy Bathroom because this is a suite. the bathtub is probably massive. he's going over and starting the bath for her while still carrying her he is Full big bro moment. don't at him. ]
You really think a horse would break this thing? It looks big enough to fit two horses. [ it is not that big. ] Might as well give it a shot.
I will be mad enough for the both of us. [she informs him, because she has a grudge for a million years over something sigrun said like two weeks ago.
anyway yeah she wants to be a cat because people cuddle her when she's a cat and she's unfortunately touchstarved. there are several scenes in the graphic novel where she is sitting on ballister's desk, in front of him, as he has to type around her.
she wrinkles her nose.]
No, I don't want to be a cat in the bath - I can wash myself off, Ace, god. [...] Kotatsu?
[ he accepts her sigrun grudge with a shrug because he's not that invested in defending her honor ]
I'm not washing you, I'm setting up. [ sheesh!!! ] Kotatsu was a lynx I rescued from poachers. He decided to follow me around after that, even though he's kind of a coward, so I let him join my crew. [ which is a very roundabout way of saying "that's my cat". there's a pause ] He probably just liked that I was warm, really.
[ the bath is running and he's just crouching back down to deposit nimona despite the fact she can like, y'know, jump down just fine ]
[she says, which is stupid because she's hugging him like she's afraid he's going to vanish if she doesn't dig her claws in. she obviously does not mean this.
she will eventually let go of him she just has to be a brat first.]
[ he's quiet for a second at that, not because he thinks she's serious or anything, but because even as a tease it's still "I like you" and the way she clings says "stay" and so he lets her cling for a bit ]
Gee, thanks. [ his tone's dry despite the pause, a little smile on his face ] I like you for the cat transformation, so I guess we're even.

[ok,
she hums, peering over at the bath. she's still clinging to him a bit.] If I turn into a horse then I can't be a cat, though.
no subject
I mean, I do too, but it's not like she knew. I can't be too mad. I do think it was dumb of her to not let go.
[ why. it's not like he was fighting. he couldn't. but cute she wants to be a cat... ]
You're not going to be a cat in the bath, right? Kotatsu never wanted to take baths.

and then, after a second, she sighs and gets down off his back, though she does waver because she's still dizzy as fuck.]
Yeah. Guess we're even. [she's smiling, though.]
