When closets rebell ((Open RP, Great Hall))

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

((OOC: Channel should know I read what's said when I'm asleep.))

There were things about this school that were beyond Kusuriyuri's dreams. That he'd find ones so precious to him as Kurama and his students was still surprising to him, still enough to bring a secret smile to his lips.

There were things about this school that were beyond baffling. The tendency for friends, enemies, and otherwise to show up and vanish with little notice, for one.

The fact that his closet refused to give him anything but a short black dress this morning was another. No matter where he looked in their apartment, he could not find his kimono or even any of Kurama's clothes to charm to fit him. It was the only clothing, aside from a black headscarf, he could find.

Believing his closet to be as perverse as the rest of this school, he also figured he wouldn't find his normal clothing until he'd been properly humiliated by wearing what his closet offered.

Boukensha looked at him in askance, but insisted on riding on his shoulder as he went to the Great Hall on his way to his office to study. He hoped that there would be few about as he left, but was sure that there was some perversion in the school that would cause his hope to be rendered into naught.

"Well, some exercise would be good for him. Keeps him from getting fat." Subtle, Matt is not. Except in computers.

"He does run about with Belophoebe in the gardens, but he is small to keep up with this one walking," Kusuriyuri said. "He also seems determined to stay so," he added, a touch of fondness in his voice.

"He wasn't the runt, perchance, was he?"

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

Kusuriyuri considered a moment. "Branch was nearly the same size," he replied, "but is much larger now. But, it may be there were not of the same litter."

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"Hm. Point taken. A DNA match might prove if they were, but I'm not THAT bored."

"Perhaps he his fondness for riding in collars will prevail over his body's growth? He is quite stubborn," Kusuriyuri said.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"A stubborn cat that stopped his growth through sheer will alone." Matt shrugged. "Then again, this is a magic school."

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

"That is so," Kusuriyuri said. "Have you worked more on your maps," he asked.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

Matt yawned and nodded. "Still need to make it damage-free, but there are more wards on it so Karasu can't use it."

"Are you not sleeping?" Kusuriyuri asked, concerned. "There is time for rest. You should not strain yourself."

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

Matt shrugged. "I've always had trouble sleeping. If it wasn't one thing, it's the other. I've coped, though."

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

Kusuriyuri frowned. "If it becomes problematic, please, come to me. There are things that will help you sleep that are not problematic."

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

Matt shrugged again. "Like I've said, I've had this since I could remember, and I've run on little sleep before."

I think I've found my sick/comfort victim.

"As you say," Kusuriyuri said. Boukensha mewed commandingly, a litany of instructions that were obviously quite important to the kitten.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

Matt glared. "Are you trying to tell me what to do, cat?"

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

Boukensha chirruped one last time before setting down onto Kusuriyuri's shoulder. "He is a little prince," Kusuriyuri said, his tone utterly solemn and dry.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"He's not MY prince."

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

Kusuriyuri raised an eyebrow when Boukensha merely huffed at that. "He would seem unaware of the distinction," he said solemnly.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"All right, fine. If he can best Koopa at something, I'll bow down and worship him."

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

"This one thinks that perhaps only a pretense is needed," he said, his eyes glittering with mirth though his tone remained solemn.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"I want evidence." Matt glared at the cat.

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

Boukensha opened an eye and looked at Matt and then yawned hugely before settling down for a nap on Kusuriyuri's shoulder. "Saa," Kusuriyuri said, a slight ripple of amusement in his voice.

[12panelwonder.livejournal.com]

"I didn't think so," Matt said smugly. Like pwning a cat was a big deal.

[edomedpeddler.livejournal.com]

"Perhaps you both are victorious," Kusuriyuri said, the ripple of amusement still in his voice.
