Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

Caitlin grinned at their back and forth, glad to see someone was getting a kitten or two today. Cait wouldn't be. Not yet, she still had to figure out where she would keep one. Her eye wondered back over to the puppy aisle and spotted Rava in front of her dog of choice. Caitlin excused herself from Edel and Stephen and made her way back to her injured Rogue.
"Did you get him?" She asked Rava.
She sat her glass down next to the decanter and leaned back. This was nice... like falling into a vat of marshmallow fluff. Calm, muffled, the rest of the world blocked out by the closed door to his cabin, and here they were safe inside. Safe from reality, safe from their own complicated lives. Safe from duty. Safe from context. Just. Safe. --Caitlin

Stephen listened to her explanation, raising his eyebrows some "Oh dear, I can not have people thinking I am actually a nice person. I can not have that at all" he said with a light chuckle. He appreciated the complement but would not admit it. He gave Cait a polite nod as she walked away to join her friend. "Well it would make them very happy to have a home, I know that for sure" he said, letting Edel take Kath from him.

"That's a difficult wish to make true while you're being surrounded by cute fluffy baby animals and so clearly loving it." She snickered at his claim that he didn't want people thinking he was a nice guy, then turned to look at where Caitlin was gone to talk to the other girl. "Do you know Cait's friend? She looks strangely familiar to me but I must be having a bit of a mind blanking day because can't recall from where at all."

Stephen rolled his eyes with a smirk as he went to pick up Puck, the little black kitten. Portia, the orange tabby, gave him the saddest look over, unhappy with the lack of attention. Was she not the most adorable thing he laid eyes on? The smile on his face widened as he picked Portia up as well. Turing back to Edel with both kittens in his arms he wiped the smile off his face to answer her question "I have met her before. She was drunk at the time though. I believe I heard the fellow call her Rava. I am surprised you have not recognized her for another reason. She was Morse girl, the girl who lead that wild chase when that King came to town" he stated matter-of-factly.
no sure if Stephen know's about Rava being the girl who caused the commotion in "Wagging Tongues Wake the Mob" so I left it at the end so it can be easily removed if you peeps want it to be
as the shop keeper told Rava about the young puppy that he was a lucky one as he was found with his mother remains and how he was very hungry , this touched Rava's so much that as other talked around her all her force went to the puppy, " yes i would like him please , bless the little thing" she said as the shop keeper handed the puppy to her , as she held him he fell asleep in his arms are she cuddled the puppy.
" he so cute~ , whats his name" which the shop keeper only said they only called him boy and he never had a real set name "well looks like we need to name you my little cutey puppy~ " she turned to Caitlin to ask her "Caitlin, what do you think i should name him?"

Caitlin scratched behind the little puppy's ears while Rava held him. She wasn't sure, no immediate names came to mind. He didn't have spots, or a tuxedo coat of fur. He was a brown ball of fur and just a little thing but who knew how big he would grow with time... She shrugged.
"Maybe something that reminds you of home?" She suggested.

" w well its hard considering the only home i got is here" remembering she traveled alot, " maybe if i called him Rex? " she looked down at the puppy who gave her a yarn before returning to his cuddles sleep "oh i got it , how about Dice? " a name that came to her from something she remembered seeing wooden dice that she used to play with.

Caitlin gave Rava a sweet smile and nodded. "The way your eyes just lit up, I bet that was the right name that popped into your head." She patted the puppy on the head then waved good bye to Rava and the other two.
"See you three around," she promised before leaving the shop.

"Ah so that was her..." The redhead mused, a little thoughtful and a little curious. She had not paid much attention - nor had opportunity - for taking a close look at Rava back when there was that confusion at the EIRALs barracks. "Seems like she escaped then, and now here we are like some sorts of invasors society all spontaneously gathered to get cute cubs." She couldn't help but snicker at that prospect. Oh the ironies of destiny would never cease to amuse her.

Stephen raised his eyebrows and smirked a little at Edel's words "I suppose." Turning he glanced down at the two kittens in his arms and frowned "This is entirely unfair" he said with a sigh.

"What is unfair?" She looked at the kittens he was holding, and then at Caitlin and Rava talking at just a little distance from them. Nothing in that shop seemed unfair to her; only fluffy. Including Rava's hair.

Stephen turned his sad eyes back up to Edel "I wish to take them all home but father would kill me. He already complains about all the cats I already have... " A sad, longing sigh escaped his lips as he turned his eyes down once again, watching Portia play with a button on his shirt. "It is just not fair at all..."

Her mind oh so graciously fetched her an image of Charles literally buried in kittens, and it took all of her will to not snort at it. "What's not fair? They are in a place that cares for them now at the very least, and they'll be getting new homes soon or later as well, with other people who also wanted a little friend."

Stephen just gave her a look. He was tempted to tell her just how much he felt the need to take every stray cat he saw home but decided not to since it might disturb her and made him sound childish. "I suppose. Well, I best be off. I have some lunch that my father is dragging me to. Something about future wedding plans with another random noble girl..." he muttered with an irritable frown. Turning, he began to walk away, pretending to not notice he still had the two kittens, Puck and Portia, in his arms meowing happily.

"Wow... Good luck with that." Because she didn't think Stephen would have same ...posture... that Caitlin had when her own father decided to meddle in her love life. She still hoped he could rescue himself though since the dinner idea seemed to bother him. In a last stance, she pondered, maybe he could call on to 'being bethroted to Katherine'.
