As an update: the arcade game that vanished has been located in the Archives where it will be closely monitored. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get your money back.

The Knowledge Department encourages you not to trust suspicious (and probably nefarious) pixelated fortune-tellers with your future. Though I'm also obligated to say that divination is a "legitimate" legitimate magical practice and that if you have questions you can visit Grego Gregory. Personally, I think you can trust yourselves best.


Now. Who the hell belongs to these cats?

[NEM]

Elliott got back to me and confirmed that Yana, Jameson and Hippolyta left QF with Cadmus and have been around since the start. He also confirmed that Yana is a shapeshifter...not that this is a surprise to any of us.

Comments

[werewho]

Certainly not something that I predicted.

Seems like we might need to get you more cat food than whatever you have for Blooper.

[abracadavers]

No? Didn't consult the cards?

They're not staying, they have to belong to someone.

[cursorily]

Ha ha.

[abracadavers]

:) as the youths say.

[geminids]

but if they don't

[abracadavers]

[...] do we have room in the yard?

[geminids]

i mean. we do but we ain't a cat rescue.

[abracadavers]

I suppose an actual cat rescue would be the most responsible, if no one here wants to also adopt any. I'm a little suspicious that they may be supernatural in some way. [...] I could bring them home.

[geminids]

like yeah you COULD bring em to the yard but it ain't protocol and then i'd spend my whole night in the yard mindin em. when i could be hanging out with you n your new brood instead.

[abracadavers]

They're not my new brood. [...] Okay. I'll bring them back to my apartment and I'll see, if no one has claimed them by morning, about bringing them to the farmhouse. Bethany and Bowen will lose their shit, I'm sure.

[Broken]
If they aren't claimed, would Brook want one?

[geminids]

well you're already NAMIN em so we'll taking them to the vet first, like we got one in house anyways. get the lot checked out for chips and worms and whatever.

[broken]
[...] you wanna give my kid a cat?

[abracadavers]

They need names. Ursula K le Guin clearly loves hers.

I'll do my best to collect them, half of them currently reside on my sweater anyway.

[Broken]
If that's something you and her parents would be okay with. Does she have pets?

[geminids]

ok i'm gonna pass wookiee off to somebody then i'll help.

[broken]
sometimes her momma brings work home. [...] nothin permanent.

[abracadavers]

Alright. We're pretty cozy right now.

[Broken]
Okay, so maybe not something on the table for discussion then.

[werewho]

As it happens, I don't even own a set of mundane tarot cards.

How many are there?

[abracadavers]

I will say, they can be very beautiful.

11...no, 12. Victor Hugo was hiding behind the bin.

[werewho]

They are, which is probably the only reason I have been tempted to think about buying them.

Victor Hugo? If you've already named them then they are definitely yours.

[abracadavers]

I'm not supposed to say that art is their only real purpose, so I didn't.

No, they just...everything needs a name. I can't call the tabby "cat" when it's chewing on the wires, they'll have an identity crisis. There's 12 of them!

[werewho]

Oh, ok, then we will continue to not say that.

I would like to know the other names, please.

[abracadavers]

Victor Hugo. Ursula K Le Guin. Kafka. Virginia Woolf. Steinbeck. Maya Angelou. Dostoyevsky. James Joyce. William Butler Yeats. Oscar Wilde. T.S Eliot. and Bruce, of course.

[werewho]

Of course, Bruce, couldn't be forgotten.

[abracadavers]

He's incredibly charming, there was no other name I could choose.

[werewho]

I think we know which one you're most likely to keep.

maya.

[geminids]

tell him to keep all 12 i want access to 12 kittens

[abracadavers]

William Butler Yeats seems sensitive though.
