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.))

Jace makes a face at the video announcement and then goes back to his training exercises. He's not interested in a cat who can't even call him by his name. Alec or Izzy can have Church. The annoying little pain. Cats are rude he decides, breathing in slowly. He is also not interested in having a pet or a companion. He is a Shadowhunter and Shadowhunters don't have time for pets.

Simon didn't count he smirks to himself. But the thought of Simon brings thoughts of Clary and his smirk vanishes.

Sebastian can't help himself. His parents wouldn't allow him to have a pet when he had so many other responsibilities already. And even if he can't help he wants to see all the animals that have come to the Library. He hurries to the main reception hall.

"What will happen to the animals who aren't chosen by anyone?" He asks the Cat, smiling at Church.

Barry grins at the bookmark screen, Joe had never let Iris and he have a pet and he's really wanted a dog for the longest time. It's just the whole superhero thing and his CSI job a pet wasn't really a great idea. "Any puppies in that bunch with a lot of energy?"

Isabelle makes an irritated face at the cat in the bookmark. Her own face can't hold back a smirk at seeing Church. "I see how it is.... giving my cat away and I haven't even been here for five miniutes.

"You doing okay Church?"

Natasha was never one to be too sentimental or one to beat around the bush. She had seen the cat's announcement about the pet's and wanted to do so wam wanted to do something special for Bruce after everything they had been through.

She wondered though if she would be able to find what she's looking for. She looked around at all the animals until she found one that just seemed to call to her.

Sebastian actually took longer than was necessary calling Alec. He was enjoying holding the cat and hearing him purr. He may have talked to Chairman Meow a little, too. He talked about Jace and Izzy coming to live in the Library. He was happy for Alec. He really was.

And maybe a little nervous. Sad. Scared. He was trying to not let his insecurities show at all. They weren't important and he really did feel good about the Cat knowing and being open about his relationship with Alec.

"This is my room, Chairman Meow. I hope you don't mind stopping here so I can call Alec. The Library isn't always a safe place and I am responsible for getting you safely to your family." He didn't put Chairman Meow down, he sat down on his bed and pulled out his bookmark to call Alec. Sending a video and making sure Alec could see the cat in his lap.

"Alec. Someone arrived here looking for you and Magnus."
