Erika had been rather subdued of late, which was understandable; she still missed Faith, which meant she moped more often than doing usual cat things, and stuck to Locke like a burr in a boot. Even if she had kept to her usual cat-ly behavior, Locke wouldn't have had the heart to remind her to remember to have better manners.
Today was an exception. On the one hand, it probably meant Erika was feeling a little better. On the other....
"Erika," the Mind said gently, peeking over the top of his book.
~Yes?~
"That innocent 'Huh-wha? I wasn't clawing anything' expression would be a lot more effective if your nails weren't snagged in the fabric."
Erika glanced at the second easy chair her paws were placed against. ~Huh. I guess it would,~ she said, and looked back at her person. ~Help?~
"I don't know. Maybe I should let you stay there for a little longer."
~Awwwww!~
"All right, all right." Locke put his book aside and got up to help his cat. "I was just kidding."
~Just help me please.~"
"Here you go."
