Who: Madoka, her new kitty (Maru/Sleepy Ash) and you!
When: Day 2 of Fiddlesticks
Where: Everywhere on the train
What: Madoka is very excited about her new cat. And also likely making very bad life decisions for herself here by making a contract with a vampire.
Warnings: Likely mentions of vampirism.

(note: threads will mostly be between madoka and your character, maru might randomly jump in to pipe up on some threads, you'll know if/when it happens!)

( a: dining carriage )

If you've seen Madoka going anywhere on the train since yesterday, you may have noticed something new about her. Namely the fact that she's dragging a tiny black cat with her everywhere she goes.

Right now she can be found with it in the dining carriage, where she's seated at the table not to eat, but to instead draw in her notebook. She keeps sneaking glances over at the cat as it's sleeping on the table next to her notebook though, and after a while Madoka can't take it and giggles as she gently boops his face with the not-sharp end of her pencil.

"So cute.. Who's the most adorable kitty around? It really is you..!" She's staring at the cat with so much endearment in her eyes, but that's the exact moment where she looks up and only then seems to notice you being there too. Madoka's face immediately grows pink with a blush.

"A--Ah, I'm sorry!" Because apparently she feels the need to apologize for gushing over her cat publically..

( b: near the on board shop )

Or you may spot Madoka near the on board train shop. Apparently she's been using it, since the girl's arms are loaded with way too many chips for one tiny teenage girl to eat. There's six different bags in her arms, and the tiny black cat is precariously balanced on top of her head. It seems to be going well.. until one of the bags of chips slips out of her hands, falling onto the ground.

"Ah..!"

The girl is trying to pick it up, but it's a difficult process with her arms this full and her not wanting to disturb the sleeping cat on top of her head.. Someone please help the poor girl instead of watching her attempt to bend down and pick it up only to fail.

( c: anywhere in the train! open to madoka's close cr! )
(if you're wondering if you're close cr, then the answer is probably yes.. but feel free to check with me on plurk or discord!)

After a while she figures though that she should probably at least tell some people about the true nature of her kitty. It's going to be really awkward if someone sees him transform and freaks out about it in the middle of battle.. So while carrying the cat in her arms, Madoka makes her way through the train to try and look for people she's close to.

When she finds one of them, she'll offer a small smile and say: "Um.. Sorry, but do you maybe have a moment for me..?"

Maru looked from one to the other then back to the person he didn't know. "... What ticket?" He had no idea what she was talking about. Though there had been a strange moment when he'd woken up somewhere else... Maybe that was his room? Some guy had let him out without noticing he'd even been there. Maru could be quick when he wanted to be, after all.

His tail swished and he looked a bit bothered by all this. Was he supposed to have his own room? Was it going to cause Madoka problems if he did? Was the distance too far...?

"... I should stick by you." He decided after a few seconds more of thought. Just to be on the safe side. Besides, he didn't know anyone else. And there had been a strange girl who smelled like fire in that other room he would rather avoid.

"I did. I asked for something cute and this is who they sent to me. I haven't given him a name yet." She had thought to name him Terra, after learning that her friend had walked from the train and vanished but the thought made her a little too sad.

"You got a new friend too?" She asked, her thoughts redirecting at the little black cat in Madoka's arms.

"He's very cute."

"Dood!"

That was the exclamation of a Prinny who'd found loot! In this case, a bag. With it tucked under its flipper, the Prinny cheerfully sauntered through the hallway, intent on at last returning its new property to the garden car base.

Nita nodded; she'd just have to check the roster, make sure this guy hadn't gotten stuck with Sleeper 7 or anything. That would make for a long walk!

"Whichever you prefer. Means a longer walk to Sleeper Two, is all."

And she went to get the door, gesturing gallantly for Madoka and her new friend to pass through.

Oh, good. He was lazy too.

And a talking cat too, but that wasn't all that strange at this point. "I suppose being more than just a cat is payback, isn't it?" Whatever the particulars of that were.

Threatening Madoka's cat in front of her was probably bad form, so she just nodded at Maru instead. "Take good care of her then."

Dining Carriage

Glorfindel is used to not being noticed when he walks into a room. And then suddenly noticed in that way only a six foot plus tall elf with long blond hair who glows can.

He smiled at her and indicated his tea cup. "Looking for more company?" he asked. "I see you already have a Most Adorable new friend," who was also wearing a wrist amulet, though much smaller than his own.

Ignis is getting hungry and he knows that he has to start prepping for dinner soon. So he's headed to the kitchen when he sees a familiar head of pink hair. "Madoka darling." the advisor called softly, as to not startle her.

He saw the black fluffball on the table and smiled. He wanted to buy a black cat himself so he thinks maybe his daughter bought one since she does have so many points already. "Did you.." His voice cut off as Madoka started apologizing and he shook his head.

"It's quite alright. I wasn't aware you'd purchased yourself a cat." Really, it was fine with him because she looked happy and that's what he wanted his daughter to be.
faithfulsupport: (Rather thoughtful -r)

"You didn't?" the advisor asked with surprise in his tone. He stopped and stood behind Madoka and looked over her shoulder at the black cat. He listened to his daughter's story and inspected the cat still from where he stood.

Maru? Did she give him that name? Well he was going to ask but figured it might be better just to leave them alone for now. Ignis smiled of course at Madoka's soft heart and nodded. "You may want to have him be seen or if you believe he needs to be healed, that can be arranged." This was his daughter's cat and she could take the lead regarding this matter.

The Prinny paused, wondering if it was being addressed.

"Mister Dood? What kind of a name is that, dood?"

Zetta's lack of self-awareness could extend to his minions as well...

Maru yawned and gave a lazy stretch... before he rolled over onto his back.

There were voices talking and he was having a hard time sleeping with it. Slowly he opened his eyes to see a man beside Madoka. Upside down he didn't look like much, what did he mean healing?

Maru yawned again and continued his roll, almost rolling himself right off of the table.

Maru gently bumped his head against Madoka's cheek. She was very sweet. Much better than his last Eve. He found that he wanted to be nice to her. It seemed an almost easy task, given how nice she was to him.

And she thought he was cute. Mahiru had never appreciated how cute he was as a cat. Maru thought he was damn well adorable and made the best cat ever. Though arguing that point had required energy and Maru didn't usually have much of that to spare.

He did look at her then, the orange haired girl who looked like she didn't like him much at all.

Maru thought about how he could answer that. And really, there was only one way.

"I'll protect her with my life..." He replied, voice low but firm. Maru didn't have many redeeming features to his personality, he knew that. He was a product of his reaction. He was what he had been made to be. But he could try and do something good. Madoka was kind to him. She'd wanted to be strong, to be able to protect the people she loved. Maru would give her that ability and watch over her. He did, after all, live for a very, very long time.

Glorfindel got a cup, water, and a tea bag and sat down next to her. "But the question is, does he want?" he asked, nodding at the cat who was clearly a VoidTrekker as well. He heated up his water and set the tea bag inside to steep.

They were talking about him. Maru gave a large yawn and stretched out then rolled onto his side.

Slowly he opened his eyes to take stock of his surroundings. "Hmmm?" A new person. So many new people... How many people were on this train anyway?

"Want what...?"

Ple Two nodded - almost smiled. It was also an expression that said 'you'd better' though.

Of course, she felt the same way herself even if she knew saying it would worry Madoka.

Maruuuu...

Join the Madoka love train!

"No arguments here," Nita replied, waiting until they had gotten through to get the other door.

This was, indeed, going to be a long walk, but the company was certainly pleasant!
