Jackdaw & Annie || Construction Zone - -
The tom gave a huff. "Well, seems you have a good judge of character then." He replied, amused. Watching the kit's mood suddenly grown more forlorn, Jackdaw couldn't help but feel slightly sympathetic. That feeling quickly passed seeing Annie quickly shifted over to a more annoyed mood. He gave a small smile and commented, "Well, your father is just looking out for you and his group. Speaking of, there are some leaving you say?" He then asked, his thoughts shifting over to the ideals of simply leaving. True the area he was in wasn't necessarily the best, in fact it seemed to be getting worse over time, but Jackdaw had never even thought of leaving. Really the only things that really kept him where he was was his collection. That of which he had to admit, though hated admitting it, he seemed to be getting more attached and protective of those things. The idea of leaving to do... whatever almost sounded appealing. Almost being the key word here. He had no idea if he would ever have the intention to go out more and explore. He did explore, when finding trinkets to added to his collection, but not really any true exploration. "Yup! We're going to find a better place to live." Annie's explanation was stunted, she knew that. So she tried again, using bigger words this time to try and sound more grown up. "Um, it's a journey to separate ourselves from twolegs and the city, to find a place where we don't in-inhale smog? Yes. Smog. And, uh, it's a big group of us. Rogues, loners and even kittypets! Oh, Dad says we should call them 'reformed house cats' but I've heard other cats say it doesn't matter what we call them. I dunno if it's right or not but I'll call 'em what my Dad calls 'em. Dad is never wrong" The ginger kitten seemed to earnest, so certain in her stance. It would later be a huge shock to find out that her father was indeed capable of being wrong. She frowned a little, whiskers drooping with her muzzle as she whispered, "We lost my sister Shadow to bad prey. Dad wants to leave as soon as possible. I think he's afraid I'll die next."

[ Yes! Don't make me cry now, Feather :c I loved Eagleclan, we made it to 1000 pages and we had so many plots going on. I was Snow's first member on that clan. I joined on December 21, 2010, I believe. The day might be wrong, it's been so long since that day... I miss Eagleclan. I wonder how far it would have been if everyone was still here. I figured most of our characters would've died and their children would be the warriors and such.
Sorry for the disappearance! My internet is acting funny. :/ It was connected then it wasn't. ]

Jackdaw & Annie || Construction Zone - -
Jackdaw nodded every now and then while listening to Annie's explanation. "Makes sense." He commented. It seemed reasonable enough. This place was already in rough enough shape so he could understand why others would want to leave. Upon hearing about the death of the kit's sister, the tom's head hung down slightly in respect. "My condolences for your loss..." he meowed, his normally emotionless tone actually had a hint of genuine sincerity to it. "I can understand your father's actions." Silence wavered in the air for a moment until he broke it. "Well you seem pretty healthy to me so the old guy shouldn't have to worry about a thing." he remarked, giving a wink in attempt to cheer up the she-kit. "Also, a little adventure sounds fun, eh? Never know, maybe even I—" The tom stopped himself there, realizing what he was going to say. What? No, you cannot just go and make such a decision right this moment! Jackdaw mentally scolded himself for making such a ridiculous idea. Leaving where one was practically raised and lived for their whole life was something you could not make a choice on instantly without though. Jackdaw quickly covered himself from his little mishap of speech by instead saying, "Y'never know, maybe you might have a lot of fun traveling around."

Ebon and Sirius
Ebon twitched in his whiskers in faint amusement at the tom's words. He padded the rest of the along the boat before gracefully leaping onto the dock next to Sirius. He had a feeling that the tom meant no harm to him. "Sir?", he chuckled and shook his head at the tom, 'What an odd fellow', he thought. Ebon swished his tail as he cocked his head to the side, "You have the right place, I am Ebon", he supplied, helpfully. Ebon regarded the tom with curiosity, not many cats sought out his company. "I hope not... I am not the type to fight", he meowed with a scoff. It was a fib, Ebon was an excellent fighter, he disliked pointless fighting. He hoped the tom wasn't trying to recruit him to join a gang of some sorts. Ebon narrowed his eyes, turning his head to face city. He let out a soft sigh, "Yes. I've noticed", he muttered and shifted on his paws, "Most have left", he meowed trying to say it in nicer terms. The docks used to be overrun with cats but not anymore, everyone seemed to have disappeared like they were fragments of Ebon's imagination. "Something is amiss", he mused as he flattened his ears, looking back to Sirius. "Do you know what is happening?", he wondered out loud towards the tom. The city has been under fire by some obstacle, prey was sacred than usual in the city. Ebon often went hungry. He was trying to get one of the fisherman to warm up to him, that would help him survive with the deplenish of hunting grounds.

"There's no caviar? Well then I certainly can't come." Cosmo meowed shaking his head. There was no way he was going out on the wild with the city scum. That's too much to ask. A show at like him belonged in London, not here. "Well you enjoy heading off with those vile city cats, I'll be in London." He stopped for a moment before admitting. "I'd like to go, see what it's all about." In truth he was quite curious, but he couldn't live without his daily caviar! "When do they leave?"

(I have Returned) Giovanni was pretty confused by her actions, but kept it up. "Okay..." He wasn't one to call her out for being weird, but his servant was basically saying it for the both of them with his wide eyes and slightly agape mouth. Rabbit stopped it when he realized that yet again, Giovanni was glaring at him.
(I'm not sure if Giovanni would really get into a serious relationship. He's kinda degenerated to the point where his love-and-leave tactics are kind of an addiction. But the idea of both of them actually developing feelings for each other only to surpress it sounds like a good subplot)
Rosina decided that this was a strange, self-conceited cat. She assumed caviar was some kind of dish. "They're leaving to escape the mouse problem here and the Twolegs, and they leave in a few days or so. They just need to get enough cats to leave in a big group." She tilted her head and twitched her whiskers. "Most of the cats here will go, maybe about fifty or sixty or so?"
(I might add another character but I dunno for certain)

Alix leaned in, resting her head against his chest. This tom was disgusting. Flirting with any attractive she-cat he crossed paths with. She would break it to him once he had gotten close enough to her. She rubbed her head against his chest warmly. { would you mind if giovanni decides to kiss her ? because she's going to go cold on him just before they kiss }

Giovanni decided he might as well kiss her, given that by this point she seemed to be asking for it. He reached in to kiss her to see what she would do.
(I'm guessing that when cats kiss they rub noses together)

Alix leaned in, before suddenly halting and glaring at the tom. "You think you can win over a she-cat with just some sweet talk and flirting?! We she-cats are much more intelligent than you think, you creep." { just pressing their muzzles together , i guess }

Giovanni was pretty annoyed when she called him a creep, but he didn't show it. "I thought you said you wanted a kiss. I'm not a creep. If you think that, why were you acting all romantic just a few seconds ago?" Rabbit calmly groomed his fur as if it was just another ordinary day in the life- which to him it was.

"I was testing you." Alix said, smirking and casually lifting a paw to lick. "I know your type. You flirt for the fun of it, breaking she-cat's hearts along the way without a care in the world. You may have only met romantic and naive she-cats before who buy it and truly believe you're in love with her. Luckily, I'm made of tougher and smarter stuff."

Giovanni tilted his head in confusion. "I've never met a cat like that." However, he did know of himself- and Rabbit's unsuccessful attempts to be better than him. Rabbit, still somewhat oblivious, scratched at a few pesky fleas around his neck. "So why did you have to test me, then? Are there really THAT many of those cats around here?"

"'Course. Dealing with you guys sucks, but what's a girl to do?" Alix breifly did doe eyes and fluttered her eyelashes innocently, before returning to her usual smirk. "Of course, I have to acknowledge that-" She glared at him. "That you're more than ten months older than me. Find a she-cat your own age, creep." She looked at him, a fake innocent and lovesick expression plastered on her face."Oh Giovanni! You're so handsome and kind! Do you want to be my mate and have piles of kits~?" Again, she smirked. "I'm suprised that you didn't catch on that it was fake."

"Surprised? That's why I didn't instantly say yes. But I'm not that kind of cat. My servant will tell you. Rabbit, get over here." Rabbit did as he was told, even though he was still in pain from all the beating that he had taken earlier that day. "Show her that I'm a nice cat." Rabbit nodded. "Of course! He's helped orphan kits be adopted, he's donated prey to the impoverished, he's helped house cats adjust to the wild... He's a great cat!" Rabbit was, of course, lying, but he smiled to try to convince her it was true. "See?" meowed Giovanni. "I'm a great cat. I even helped Rabbit when he was a small lonely little guy with no home or food." Again, he was lying- Rabbit helped him, not the other way around- but Rabbit's little stumpy tail wagged in agreement. "Absolutely wonderful."

Alix raised an eyebrow and looked at them, completely unimpressed. "You and your little friend are lying." She said. She had always been talented at seeing other cat's emotions, and she knew that the tale him and his slave were telling wasn't true. After all, Giovanni didn't seem like that kind of cat and the tiny assistant seemed scared to say anything different.

"Me and my servant here are NOT lying! It's true!" said Giovanni, as Rabbit nodded in agreement. "We've been telling the truth. Why would my servant ever lie? I've told him not to, and if he were...he'd suffer plenty of consequences."
(I wanted to make one more character but I ended up with three rip I'll post them soon though)

"No, i'm pretty sure it's the opposite way around. If he were to tell the truth, he'd get punished." Alix said, gazing coolly at the two toms. "Your friend here is tiny. So much that I could mistake him for a mouse." Alix was smirking, as always. She loved to use clever little insults with other cats, and she thought these two deserved to be put in their place. "My god, why am I wasting my time here?"

Cosmo sat for a moment before replying. "I'll head off with you and that other housecat. No guarantees I'm coming, just going to see how dreadful the accommodations are." He mused. He felt a breeze ruffle his fur, and quickly licked it down, so every hair was in its place. "Now when shall we go?"

Post by Deleted on Aug 2, 2016 8:17:21 GMT -5
"You're wasting time here because I'm a nice cat. Is that not obvious? And even though he's small, he's useful...when he listens, anyway. And I know how to punish him- like this!" Suddenly, he kicked Rabbit upside the head. "So he's worth his salt."

"I don't know. Whenever we get enough cats...maybe in the next few days?" she explained. "If you're so pampered, why would you go?" She said 'pampered' with a slight bit of disgust- not enough that he would catch on, but enough to voice her opinion on him.

Post by neb on Aug 2, 2016 8:21:37 GMT -5
Cosmo shrugged, not catching the change in her tone. "There's more cat shows to be won all around the world. Wherever the filth goes, there will certainly be some Twoleg to take me in, then realize who I am. Immediately they would take me to shows all across the world, and I'd win them all." He said dreamily. Cosmo was a very conceited cat, and was still a bit offended this housecat didn't know who he was.
(I was only going to make one character then I made Cosmo. I know how it feels red.)

Rosina was pretty disgusted by this cat now. "Why do you think everybody knows who you are? What if they hate cats? What if they have a dog that would tear you to shreds?" She swatted her tail back and forth. "And how could you possibly win them all?"

Post by neb on Aug 2, 2016 8:31:24 GMT -5
(Cosmo is such a brat I love it.)
Cosmo was outraged "Excuse me you filth. If you knew what the shows were about and how they were judged I would always be an obvious choice. A dog? Please the Twolegs wouldn't let that creature near me, hey know my worth unlike some." He was normally a calm cat, but some house cats made him so aggravated.

Rosina was very disgusted, but she continued to act friendly. "I guess so." Little did either of them know, Susanna was walking down the neighborhood to see Rosina. She hated cats of Cosmo's type, and she was much more likely to voice her opinion about him.

"You think I like you? Wow, I thought I had made myself clear." Alix did a dramatic sigh. "You're the one who wants me around." She watched as he knocked over Rabbit. "Wow, you really are a charming, kind and selfless cat like you said! You're definitely the kind of tom I'd like to spend my life with." She commented sarcastically. Alix rolled over, placing a paw over her eyes. "Oh, what's a girl got to do? Stuck here with an awful tom and his shadow." She said dramatically, frowning.

"I'm not bad," explained Giovanni. "You don't even have proof that I'm that awful, you're just assuming. Assumptions are often wrong," he explained as he puched Rabbit to the side. "And me harming the servant isn't really evidence. He is a lesser being, as he is a servant."

Post by Deleted on Aug 2, 2016 8:58:17 GMT -5
"And I assume you think I'm a lesser being as well?" Alix got up and walked close to Giovanni, looking him in the eye. "Your previous behaviour has led me to this conclusion." { i'm really excited to roleplay out how they act sarcastic and rude to each other, but they also have feelings but they push them to the side. it's an interesting dynamic. should they think about it after they leave each other ? }

Rosina tilted her head. "You're waiting...with me? Okay then." She looked up to see Susanna walking towards them. "There she is now!" Susanna walked past Cosmo, but not before pausing to see if she recognized the cat. 'Oh,' she thought to herself. 'Probably Nicky, from down the block.' "Rosina! I've figured out a perfect plan. I distract them by scratching at the door while you get under the porch, get rid of the collar, and cover yourself in mud. Then, when the shoo me away, I'll come back around. Since that big maple tree in your yard has a branch sticking out of the fence, we climb that branch and jump off. Then, we will successfully have escaped!" She turned to Cosmo. "Oh, hi Nicky! I haven't seen you out of your house in a while. How's the new Twoleg kit been behaving? Last time I saw you he was apparently developing a habit of pulling your tail. There's something different about you, I can't tell what, though..."
(What if throughout the entire thing when my characters are introduced to Cosmo they're all like "OH, NICKY!")

"I don't think you're a lesser being. You're not a filthy flea-housing servant like he is," explained Giovanni. "He's a servant, so he doesn't get rights of his own!" (Yeah they can think about it after they leave)
