Chapter 1537: Chapter 1537 A Thought-full Moment
--- Kat ---
Things between Hunter and Meg... devolved? Kat wasn't sure what the correct term for things actually was. They weren't speaking anymore... Hunter was just sort of hissing at Meg while attacking her, but Meg was easily avoiding all of the attacks Hunter threw her way. It made Kat think Meg had to be Rank 4... but both Hunter and Meg seemed to believe that in a serious fight Hunter would still win somehow.
Ultimately, Kat felt it best to just let them get it out of their systems. She was busy comforting the other two girls. Bower was making himself scarce so that wasn't a concern. Kat had ended up pulling out a large couch, pulled Kamiko onto it and was giving her a lap pillow while stroking her hair. Lily wasn't left out either of course.
Kat had cajoled Lily into transforming and then stuck Lily in between her breasts.
This of course caused Lily to get stuck between freaking out, and being quite relaxed helped along by Kat using her tail to rub Lily's head as well, setting her purring. Kat found it to be an interesting exercise in control, two hands combing Kamiko's hair and one tail for Lily.
Keeping them all moving in different manners kept Kat occupied and ensured her thoughts didn't stray to any potential issues that Meg's arrival was already causing.
Kat hadn't even noticed that she was mentally referring to Meg, as Meg instead of 23HX502 like she technically should. One could argue Kat was being polite, Meg did ask to be called Meg or Megthera... but Meg was definitely an ass, and using Meg was probably an insult to Hunter.
Yet it was just so out of Kat's natural frame of reference that she glossed over the issue entirely, accepting Meg's nickname as normal.
After a few minutes of relaxing Lily and Kamiko were both feeling a lot better... and Hunter was still attacking Meg. Her guns hadn't been pulled and she wasn't making use of any of her abilities, but Hunter was going for some lethal looking attacks on occasion. She clearly tried to rip out Meg's throat at one point. *Hmm... then again. Does Meg actually need her throat?
Like I'm sure it's useful but does she have like... organs and stuff?*
[That... is a good question. I'm going to assume she has something, or rather, somethings that act in place of organs. I mean, her gem eyes clearly prove that. Then again... what sort of organs would she even have? I want to ask her all sorts of questions... but she sort of scares me.]
*I could ask the questions for you?*
[Maybe... but she'd definitely know if you asked them in my stead. I'm not sure if that's going to be a problem. I mean, it really shouldn't be but I can see Meg making it one. Why is she so mean?]
*I'm not sure. Bower seemed to think it was parental issues... and I would guess that he's at least somewhat right... but I can't tell how correct. Meg only seemed concerned with his responses for a little bit. I can't tell if they actually did anything or not because she's shown to be able to switch her apparent emotions on a dime. Even before Bower spoke up actually...*
Lily I can't see you doing that to someone you don't like either. Maybe in a couple of decades of fighting monsters but I can't see you attacking anyone sentient like that.
[OK fine. I just don't get it. I mean... I've read some things about people who flirt by fighting... but I don't think this is it?]
Well Hunter did say if you took the translation feature to its extreme it was possible.
[Huh... you think they're having a conversation then?]
Maybe? I feel like if they were we'd be able to hear it as well right? Is that not how it works?
[Maybe? Can you exclude stuff from our translation power? I mean... lying clearly works but could you say something you intentionally don't want translated? If the answer is yes then it's possible. I'm guessing it's not happening here... but I'm guessing it IS possible? Maybe?
Another question for the pile I guess.]
*Do you think we should stop them at some point? I mean... Hunter doesn't seem to be picking up anything more than bruises and Meg seems pretty much fine... but like. This can't be a good thing can it?*
[While I agree it can't be good it might be the least bad option. Just... letting them work out all of their aggression? Hopefully it gets all of Meg's out anyway. If Hunter tires out first, like it seems as if she's going to... Meg could start back up with her attacks. Which I'd just really rather she didn't.
If she really wanted to go hard she'd probably just attack Kamiko because well, as I said most of my bigger insecurities involve you but our link prevents them from become issues.]
*Hmm... it makes it hard. Hunter is older and I feel like in most circumstances I can trust her to look after herself... but this is technically a social situation and she probably does need the help there. But I don't want to risk throwing Kamiko to the woods yet. Hmmm... hmm... it makes it hard.*
[What about we both agree that it's all fine as long as Hunter doesn't start screaming? It's a lot of hissing right now but isn't that like... a warning thing when it comes to snake? Like they let out a hissing noise as a 'Hey I'm here back the fuck off' type deal?]
*Isn't that what rattlesnakes use their rattles for?*
[Probably? It's not something I looked into overly much.]
