"Hey, can I come in?" Kotaro knocks gingerly on Blecker's room, a plate of foot in his hand.
"Sure," Blecker yawns, "Come in."
With a whoosh the youngest savior enters, looking around the room he notices some clothes strewn about
and what looks like Blecker building something at a work table but the room is otherwise bare of any
personal touches safe for some pictures of them put up on the walls. On the bed rests some kind of middle
size wild cat. Smaller then a cougar, larger then a house cat. Resting with her back to the door on the bed.
"You alright?" The boy asks as he sets the food on the ground, Blecker rolling over and dropping to the
floor as she starts to eat, Kotaro kneeling to put her, "You've been sleeping a lot more and went all beast
on us. Did we do something wrong?"
Blecker purrs, and nuzzles her hand, "No! Absolutely not!"
She stops eating to lick his hand and get him to smile.
"I just haven't used my magic in a long time. And between the changes it puts on my body, the stress, the
energy, all that I just don't have the energy to turn back into a human, and if I did I'd look like a child
from my caloric burn. I just end up using more energy turning into a Kyuutamma and back too keep my
full adult size, and at the end of the day it also drain my energy making me more tired."
"I could ask Spada to get you seconds!" Kotaro smiles.
Blecker purrs and licks his hand again, "That's nice and..." she pauses, shaking her head, "No you're
right I should have just asked for seconds. I just didn't want to be a bother."
"You're one of us and if all you need is more food to fight as great as you do I'm sure Spada wont mind,
in fact he'll be thrilled, I know it!"
Blecker chuckles, "Yeah I know, he loves to cook, so do I actually. Just kinda stuck in my head, not
wanting to form bonds despite all you you forming them with me. Old habits die hard, as they say."
Kotaro nods, "Anything else we can do to help?"
Blecker flusters, "Um...actually...I could use a...a...litter box...last time I tried to use the ship facilities I
uh...fell in..."
Kotaro doesn't even need to suppress a chuckle and instead smiles, "How about walks instead, you're not
just some animal who has to poop in a box. If you need to go let me know and we'll go for a walk."
Blecker smiles, "Still treats me like an animal but you right, I think I'd prefer that to a litter box or falling
into the toilet."
Kotaro smiles.
