PM to join [Squire Dormitories] Not again! (Barn)

[Kreig Messer]

Summer 84th, 513 AV, 2rd bell 45th chime.

It was a long day to say the least, Kreig spent the entire day seeking if his new pet had any owners, no such luck however. If a certain child in the orphanage hadn’t guilt him into keeping the animal in case it didn’t have any owners, Kreig would probably…. No, that wasn’t true, in fact Kreig had taken a liking to the cat. He always did have a soft spot for animals, oh he didn’t have much experience with them, but he did like them. In the end he snuck the cat into his dorm, intent on asking his Patron for permission to keep the black cat with a white spot near its nose.


When he arrived, he immediately decided to sleep as exhaustion from the day’s events took over. The cat sleeping next to him, petting it briefly before sleep overtook him. It wasn’t till a few bells over that Kreig slowly awoke, feeling something was odd….His eyes were still closed, his hand was still on the cat, but there was something odd about the feeling....very odd, it didn’t feel like he was touching fur and in fact it felt like ‘Flesh?’ Kreig suddenly stood up right, darkness filled the room as he looked upon the sleeping form next to him. Despite the darkness, he could make out a female form ‘Ohhhh Petch’ His feelings of dread were confirmed as his eyes adjusted to the darkness and could clearly see the sleeping form of a young woman.

His face paled as he wondered where the cat went and why the petch was a NAKED young woman in his bed…. Until the realization hit Kreig ‘Oh not again!’ this Naked female was actually a Kelvic, he could make out the dark hair and the Kelvic had black fur…if there were any other confirmation that the woman was indeed the cat, he didn’t see it. Right now however, Kreig knew he was in very deep trouble for having a naked and attractive young woman in his bed.

“Oh Gods, one of you up there is having a joke at my expense, aren’t you?” He muttered quietly.

Barn woke to someone petting her. She stretched, then curled up. She felt Kreig suddenly stand upright. He smelled like panic, confusion. The Kelvic sighed and rolled over, opening her eyes. "What?" Oh, right. She had changed into human form. Barn simply rolled over again, closing said eyes. "Oh, get over it." She didn't see what all the fuss was. Hadn't he seen a Kelvic before? Obviously not, but that was his fault. Running her fingers through her hair, Barn sat up and looked at him. Pfft, humans. What, was he going to get in trouble for having a pet? Her orange eyes glowed with darkvision. A yawn was hidden behind her hand, just to be polite. Barn brought one arm across her chest and scratched her shoulderblade with the opposite hand. If he had anything to say, he'd say it now.

[Kreig Messer]

Well, at least he didn't have to deal with an energetic child.... but this was in no way a better situation. For one thing, he was glad that Orion wasn't here, for some reason Kreig gathered he'd be the worst person to count on in this situation. Another thing he was glad about was that Fallon and Orion where in the girls room, so that meant he didn't have a barking wolf or Fallon giving him the stare or handing out snarky remarks, perhaps both.


He looked into the glowing orange eyes of the female Kelvic, the biggest and most definite evidence yet. The Kelvic seemed uncaring of the fact that her 'secret' was revealed, in fact she obviously saw no issue. Kreig did see an issue however, getting permission to keep a pet was one thing.... but Kelvic's were very much people, if constantly seeking companions. Kreig sighed as he rubbed his forhead and removed himself from the bed

"My dear cat, if you were simply a cat I doub't we'd be having such a conversation.... in fact it'd make things so much easier" He paced about the room, rubbing his forehead then turning his gaze back to the cat "I highly doubt the order will let me keep you as a pet" 'And frankly I'd be uncomfortable having a person as a pet'.

[Barn]

Bah, humans. Always stressing out about the littlest of things. He wasn't going to get in trouble, was he? She was just a Kelvic. Not important enough to freak out about. Kreig slid off the bed, rubbing his forehead. "I am a cat. I merely have the ability to take on a human form. I don't see what all the fuss is about. Besides, if needed I can stay in my natural shape. I do it all the time. My name is Barn, by the way. I already know yours." The girl hopped off the cot as well, walking over to the entrance of the dormitory. Turning, she leaned against the wall. "Nobody will find out." She tilted her head, hair falling to the side gently with an almost creepy smile. Barn was a cat, and she could evade humans and their precious tracker dogs. It was easy for her, but she got caught sometimes. Padded feet and quick reflexes were the difference between life and death for a cat.

‘Oh Dira, kill me now ‘ Kreig groaned as the crazy cat didn’t seem to realize why he cant keep a cat Kelvic, petch…. They’re not even bonded so no, no way he was gonna let her stay here… the problem came in telling that to the cat, who obviously had no intent to leave. She seemed to think that because she can stay in her cat form, there would be no trouble at all. Problem is, he still would be having a PERSON as a pet and Kreig didn’t quite know how to feel about that.

He paced back and forth oncemore, hand on his head…. Did she even have a home? Petch as a cat Kelvic she can certainly live on her own, she seemed to manage just that so far. But he also knew that if he turned her way he’s basicly turning someone away and out to the streets. But still… she can fend for herself.

‘Petch…’ Kreig turned to look at the mischievous cat “ Fine, you can stay….on one condition!’’ Kreig raised on finger that was slightly pointed at the Kelvic “As long you are in the confines of the Dormitories…. You are to keep yourself in your cat form at all times!”

“Now, if you ever want to go into human is that you are outside the dormitories and the military district… or join the knights formally as a squire!” Kreig said, so unless the cat has plans to become a knight, Kreig will have no trouble keeping her nature a secret!

Barn's eyes closed smoothly, and she sighed.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. I'll stay in cat form."

Humans. Always freaking out. As long as she was fed and pet for a little while each day, and had somewhere to sleep, she'd abide by the rules. It wasn't fun, but she could play tricks on the squires. Being a cat had its perks. Barn slid down the wall, stretching her legs out and crossing her ankles.

"Can I stay in this form for now, please? Nobody's here."

The question was accompanied by the biggest, most adorable eyes the cat Kelvic could muster. She liked not having fur sometimes.

[Kreig Messer]

‘wa..was she trying to be adorable’ Now Kreig had to admit, if the woman was in her cat form… or perhaps even a normal human, that could have possibly been construed as adorable. The problem was, her most noticeable Kelvic trait happened to be her EYES, and such eyes on a human? Well, there is little doubt that it would have no effect…at least not in the intended direction.

‘Oh now that is just disconcerting’ Kreig thought as he felt a shiver running down his spine. The stare irked him, it truly did at this moment ‘Does she think me so malleable’ With that disconcerting stare? He certainly was. Petch, not even chimes of having agreed to her staying and her to his conditions there was already a headache coming on.

The brawler sat on his bed and sighed, resting his head upon the pillow before glancing at the mischievous creature before him “Very well, but if you want to continue sleeping in that form I suggest you use the other bed, otherwise you revert to your cat form in mine”

Barn immediately leapt onto the other bed, curling up in fetal position. She shifted position and fixed her gaze on Kreig.

"Whose bed is this?"

He was obviously going to have a roommate, otherwise there wouldn't be another bed. The cat Kelvic didn't recognize the scent, either. Instead, she was secretly plotting to get the poor squire in trouble.
