_{[After about half an hour of trying to figure out how to post with his phone, Elliot's using the network for the first time. Does he have something important to report? Well, that depends on if cats matter to you or not...]}

My friend found a cat.

_{[Ah yes, the classic 'asking for a friend technique' in action. Always works, never fails.]}

They don't know what to name it, so I'm asking for suggestions. This is what it looks like.

Don't suggest stupid names either! A cat like this deserves a really good name!

A girl I knew named her cats Snowball, Dinah, and Kitty.

[frombetrayal]

...she named her cat "Kitty"?

[yelliot]

She's an idiot.



But her cats are cute.

[frombetrayal]

Oh, no, that's not what I was getting at...
Perhaps she was very young when she gave her cat that name?

What do her cats look like?

[yelliot]

If I remember correctly...grey, white and black.

[frombetrayal]

It sounds like you're very familiar with your friend's cats...

Are you a fan of cats, then?

[1/2]

[yelliot]

Ada Vessalius is NOT my friend! The Vessalius are scum. Don't you dare imply I'd be friends with someone like her.

[yelliot]

...So what if I like them?

[frombetrayal]

[what the hell, elliot. ...what the helliot]

Umm...
You were close enough to her to know the names of her cats...

[she's confused]

Oh, it was just a question!
You seem to like them... since you knew about her cats, and you're this invested in naming your friend's.

[yelliot]

I know the names of her cats because she'd bring them to school like an idiot.

Oh.

[frombetrayal]

Have you ever thought about getting a cat of your own?

[yelliot]

...Yes.

[frombetrayal]

What sorts of names would you consider naming your own cat? Perhaps your friend would appreciate your insight as well as ours.

["Your friend," right. She knows full well he's the one who found the cat. She's just poking a little fun...]

[yelliot]

Maybe Nessy.

[frombetrayal]

Oh, that's such a cute name!

[yelliot]

Right? It's good.

[frombetrayal]

If you do end up getting a cat and naming her Nessy, please let me meet her, all right?

[yelliot]

Okay, sure. You can meet her.

[frombetrayal]

Wonderful! I'll look forward to it.

[yelliot]

You should.

[frombetrayal]

Please contact me as soon as she's available for a visit.

[yelliot]

I will.

[frombetrayal]

Thank you.
