==> Hal Dionne.
@"Anzellous"

The one thing Hal hated about this season was that since he had few classes to worry about and he had too much free time with him. Getting a part-time job didn't help distract him anymore than he already is so he'd always be left with nothing to do. Nothing, which translates to "I can do anything with this free time but I don't know what".

So after much debate that could have lasted another hour, Hal decided to gather his art supplies and drag them out where he could find inspirations. He'd gone to the lake last week — that wouldn't be fun anymore. He'd tried around town, the fancy shops and everything. He would go to the sports field but as far as he knew, there were horses at the stable and he'd rather not be near there.

Funny enough, he hasn't tried the school grounds.

Hal went straight to find a spot in the main courtyard. There wasn't a lot of people there, thank the heavens. He'd probably find some peace here, he thought to himself as he went to an empty bench. Looking around him, the lack of rowdy people made it feel comfortable.

A sigh. "Peace and solitude."

Wei was screaming.

He was running and screaming and accidentally slamming into things but he didn't even think about it because he was a fucking cat. Listening to Sid and trusting his weird drugs had turned him into a fucking cat this was some bullshit of the highes possible caliber. He hadn't quite managed to get a good look at himself, but he could tell that his tail had remained more or less the same size as it used to be--well thinner, to match the width of his body--but otherwise he was a tiny kitten with a long as hell tail.

The kitten didn't calm down until he was in the courtyard, looking around for someone who might be able to help. IT was harder than it sounded, since his little legs put him at a height that only barely surpassed the blades of grass that covered the courtyard more or less in its entirety.

Little chest heaving, he took his first steps into the grass, wading through the freshly cut blades like tiny adventurer, searching for anyone who he recognized.

Then he saw a bench. And on the bench he saw Hal.

Hal!

The kitten made his way over to his friend? ish? and hopped onto the bench, curling his tail around him in such a way that it just dangled off the bench. "Hal!" he called. "Am I ever glad to see you!"

Of course, to Hal, they were just meows.

Hal was minding his own business, his focus on the scene he was sketching on his pad. His eyes were completely focused on the scenery of the view he had of the fountain and on his paper that he wouldn't have noticed the ball of fur on his side if he didn't hear it.

And, oh, did he wish he didn't hear the meows. Hal was still for a moment, not even looking yet as he tried to listen — making sure he wasn't hearing things but he was right. There was a cat nearby. And by "nearby", it was right next to him.

Hal regretted turning to the source of the meows because as soon as he did, he realized how close the cat was for his comfort that he literally jumped out of his seat. "U-u-uh-- n-n-nice ki-kitty....!!" There was panic in his voice and the horror couldn't even be more evident in his face as he held a defensive position against the harmless cat whom he failed to recognize as his... monkey friend. In Hal's head, all there is was a chain of cursing because there was a cat in front of him.

The little kitten twitched his tail as Hal noticed him and then... jumped away? That was... odd.

He definitely hadn't expected that kid of reaction from him when he walked up to Hal. With a tilt of his head he moved closer to Hal, curious as to what was wrong. Was he scaring the boy, or was there something behind him?

Wei looked over his shoulder in a way that was more human than cat, and mad him fall off the bench. Damn. Cat bodies were hard to get used to.

"Hal?" He meowed again. "You alright dude?" The little cat padded through the grass to the other side of the bench. "I need your help."

It was walking closer, it was walking closer.

Would walking be appropriate when referring to animals? Hal slapped himself mentalling for having such an inappropriate ad-lib in how own train of thoughs. Either way, the cat was getting closer and Hal was just terrified. Sure it was tiny and probably adorable but... cats are evil. And generally any animal could be dangerous. Even tiny hamsters.

Hal was the least concerned about the cat's human behavior because the only thing that registered in his head was that, well, it was a cat. He was just completely unaware that his friend was asking for help.

"P-please, stay back..." he said, his voice shrinking as he made steps back. The chant only kept repeating in his head as his full attention was on the cat, it wouldn't be so much a surprise if he suddenly tripped and fell on his butt.

It took a while for Wei to understand exactly what was happening. The little kitten sat in the grass and then decided to really think about this situation. Hal was up there, freaking out like crazy. And he was down here, being a kitten and asking for help. But Hal seemed to not recognize him. Not his voice, not his long long tail, not even his coat, which was only a few shades lighter than his normal one.

Did he not recognize him? Were they not friends?

...or maybe Hal just didn't speak cat?

That gave him an idea.

"Hey!" He yelled, louder this time. "You think you're better than me just because Hari likes you better huh? HUH?!" He started running laps around the bench, making weird mixtures of meows and chirping instead of words. "I'll fight you! 1 v 1 me punk!"

Hal was partially relieved when the cat seemed to understand that he did not want it any closer. His tense shoulders seemed to relax with his own guard dropping. Thank the heavens the cat was going to have mercy on him on this day. Hal swears, if he has any more bad experiences he might consider converting to a religion because he somehow survives these things.

He made a mistake dropping his guard because the cat suddenly mewled louder and started going berserk on him. Startled, Hal made a wrong step backwards and actually did fall on his backside, yelping both out of pain and shock. The cat was crazy and Hal was down on the ground at the mercy of the demon in the form of a ball of fur.

"P-please stop," Hal squeaked as he slowly tried to crawl his way back away from the kitten. His voice was so small it sounded as if he was about to cry.

Wei was having fun, running around in circles and screaming his frustrations at Hal when he couldn't understand and couldn't retort. He didn't have to answer for his anger of even explain himself, and that was amazing. It was soothing. It was was cathartic to torment someone a little, in good fun he thought, and feel better because of it.

That was, until Hal found himself on the ground and squeaked at him.

It seemed like all of a sudden weights dropped on him. What was he doing? He was bullying Hal, when Hal had never done anything wrong, simply because he could. This was...

He was disgusted at himself.

The kitten stopped.

In the grass it simply stopped. If he could cry as a cat without meowing and making the situation worse somehow, he would. and peered around before searching for something. A dropped sketchpad. He padded over to it and, taking the nearby dropped pencil into his mouth, carefully wrote a sloppy "Sorry :(" in an unobtrusive place. Having don this, he pushed it towards Hal. A peace offering.

Hal was on the verge of a meltdown when the kitten kept running around. He couldn't even tell if he could cry. All he thought was that he wished he wasn't there and wake up elsewhere safe and away from the kitten. He didn't want to relieve and of his bad memories and all he wanted to do was to curl up and not be there.

But then the it stopped. It just sat there while Hal was curled into a ball, his knees close and his hands holding his head. The kitten quietly moved to the sketchpad he dropped from his jump. Hal couldn't see what it was doing until the kitten pushed the pad towards him. Hal nearly jumped when the kitten got close but his eyes quickly caught the writing on the page.

The kitten was apologizing to him.

Hal was a mix of both fear and relief. Did that mean the kitten was aware of what he was doing? Why and how, Hal wondered. He was sure enough normal animals couldn't get this... write-y. Or something. But for it to have the idea of apologizing at all. Hal realized it was no ordinary kitten.

"What... what are you?"
