(open)

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 shot a look toward Madoka, puzzled as to when he missed the part of their conversation where they'd talked about him. How did she know? For a long moment he wasn't sure how to reply.

His head lowered, he didn't really believe he deserved any of those things. But he couldn't find it in him to argue with both girls when they looked at him with such determination.

"... Alright." Is what he finally said.

Nita nodded sharply - then, with a grin, gestured ahead of her.

"Want to go get settled, then? Think this next car has Madoka's place."

Maru blinked at Madoka, then gave a bit of a shrug and did his best to copy her in the slightest of polite bows, while hugging the potato chips to his chest so they didn't fall everywhere. "Thanks..."

He moved past her, knowing at least where the door was now and then waited for Madoka to open it.

He liked Madoka's friend. She seemed nice. Scarily observant... But nice.

Nita waved the two off.

"Uh, let me know if you need anything, okay?"

That went for the both of them.

"It was good meeting you, Maru!" If strange... for both of them, no doubt.

"Uh... yeah. You too." He didn't wave back, he couldn't since his arms were full, but he watched her go.

Then he looked to Madoka with a raised brow. "... Did she know more about me than I know about me?"

"No, I guess not." Maru just shrugged it off, he didn't need to bother thinking about unimportant things too much. If Madoka didn't seem to notice anything strange then neither did he. The woman was just really observant, that was all.

He poked at the door with the foot of his boot and looked at Madoka expectantly.
