Event 1 - New Friends for the Holidays

[enlightenedfeline]

[The Cat appears on the bookmark screens, black fur looking slightly mussed and one ear cocked at an odd angle as if he's listening to something out of the bookmark range. He lets out a humph and a trill before focusing on the patrons that he's broadcasting to. If some of the patrons listen carefully, they will hear the sound of barking and the occasional 'meow'.]

Good day, everyone. While the portal was open to London, the Librarians received a request from some beings who were looking for a new home. Some of them are canines and felines that are similar to the creatures on most worlds. Others are more... unique. All wish to find companionship here and have asked if our patrons would take them in and befriend them. The Library will find ways to accommodate these creatures needs so there will be no concerns regarding the items required to care for them. If you would like to visit with our new guests, you may find them at the main reception hall.

[When the Cat finishes speaking, a grey Persian cat nudges him so that he can look at the screen as well.]

There is also a feline here that says his name is Church. He says his human is Jem Carstairs but he will settle for Isabelle or Alec Lightwood, or the 'Herondale boy'.

[The Cat looks at Church, canting his head toward the other feline.]

He does have a name you know and there are other Herondales that could be here.

[Church looks unimpressed in the way only cats seem to be able to master.]

Jace Lightwood-Herondale. I would appreciate one of those individuals collecting Church so he might settle in.

The other creatures are eager to join the Library community. Please come by and offer a new home to our guests.


((ooc: Players can post here to talk to the Cat about the new pets or use this post for discussions of the pets with other players. Another post will be made in the log community for those who prefer prose based rp.))

The Cat peers at the screen, opening his mouth to answer when there's the distinct sound of barking and yipping followed by a crash. The feline winced, ears flat against his skull. Really, why did they have to bring in dogs. Cats were more refined creatures. "Several. If you would like to visit then, I would appreciate having someone larger here to keep them out of mischief."

There is the hiss of a speedster moving at half speed and Barry is suddenly bowled over by a pile of excited puppies who want him to do his trick again. "Okay question answered," he answered as he tumbles over under a pile of fur." Barry laughs as puppies try to lick and climb over this human mountain. One puppy though isn't joining in though, a black and white collie puppy is sitting watching the others with a big smile on his face. He barks at the Cat as if to say."Is that my human?"

Looking down from his vantage point at the desk, the Cat decides that he can deal with the canine horde if it means one of them will find a companion. Hopping down when he's sure that Allen will remain moving at normal human speeds, the Cat walks over to the dogs. He looks smug when they keep their distance from him. "They will find you endlessly entertaining. Please run them down. Their energy seems boundless."

Except for that one who barked at the Cat. Tipping his head, he looked from puppy to Allen. "He asked if you are his companion."

Barry gently extracts himself from the puppy pile and starts running around and around the shelves getting the puppies to follow him in a yipping tumbling mess. He stops running in front of the Cat, but the puppies keep running around and around without Barry to chase. "That should keep them busy for a while," he says grinning. He waves at the black and white puppy"Hey there little guy." The puppy barks a hello and nose bumps Barry's leg.

"I think I might be," he says.
