---

Catseye has posed:
Having done her good deed of the week and impressed Emma with her practice in turning into a human, Catseye today is in her usual cat fur, in all her lavendery splendor. But she's curled up in the middle of the hallway, interrupting students who actually care about making classes. She makes them, sometime, when she feels like it. But apparently, not today.

Emma Frost has posed:
Stepping through the hallways, Emma comes upon the familiar kitty laying in the hallway, thankfully not grooming herself. Stepping closer to the cat and looking down at her favorite animal. <<What are you doing in the halls like some sort of vagrant?>> Emma asks, projecting the thought to the domesticated shape shifter.

Catseye has posed:
Catseye's ear perk when Emma walks closer, before slowly turning her head to look at her favorite person in the world, and yet still doing nothing but yawning. She has already learned that sometimes Emma does this weird talk-inside-head thing, and so she answers with a thought. <<Sleepy time? She not vagnut, she cat. Emmamother know, silly Emmamother.>>

Emma Frost has posed:
Emma sighs softly and lowers down, bent at the knees and ankles to gently reach out with a hand towards Catseye and tries to pet her cat between the ears. <<You can sleep yes, but not in the hallway, I don't want you to get stepped on.>> Emma says, tucking her tablet under the crook of her arm and reaching down to pick up Catseye. "A nap sounds good." Emma says aloud on the way towards the elevator.

Catseye has posed:
Catseye deigns to rise her head a little into Emma's petting hand, looking mighty pleased with something of a smile, closing her eyes and savoring the pampering she gets. <<But make them see Catseye, pretty pretty, she is nice, yes?>> Catseye wouldn't let just about anyone pick her up like this, but Emma is cool, she just shuffles into a comfy position, curling against Emma. <<No step on cats, it rude!>>

Emma Frost has posed:
<<I can't make them see you. You can, but don't do that outside of my room okay. We don't want you smoothskin without secondskin and scaring all the students and teachers.>> Emma thinks, using the animal's own words and logic hopefully to help her understand and not get into trouble by not wearing clothes in her human form. At least in public.

Catseye has posed:
<<She know,>> Catseye murmurs, dissatisfied with the topic of conversation, "put on fakeskin when walk like smoothskin, yes?>> She rolls a bit and bats her head into Emma's cheek.

Emma Frost has posed:
Emma keeps her arm held up and turns her chin to give Catseye a better angle to pet herself on. <<Yes, like I am.>> Emma thinks once more and enter the elevator, pushing the button for her penthouse.

Bending down once more and pulling her arm away from her chest, Emma would allow Catseye the choice to be carried or walk on her own into their home.

Catseye has posed:
<<Emmamother so smart, Catseye learn make smart too,>> Catseye muses as she keeps rubbing into her mentor endearingly. Even so, given the chance she leaps back down to the floor, and walks along Emma, keeping her tail proudly perpendicular to the ground.

Emma Frost has posed:
Emma steps into her penthouse, looking down just once, curious if Catseye will follow. Quickly she takes her tablet in hand and taps away before she sets it down on the counter and leans against it for a moment as she lifts up one foot at a time and takes her heels off. "You have some great ideas Catseye, a nap sounds incredibly wonderful." The blonde says happily as she walks towards her own bedroom.

Catseye has posed:
"Catseye so clever!" Catseye sings her own praises happily, as she follows Emma into the penthouse and immediately leaps up on the counter to take a look at the tablet, curious if it might have anything fun.

Emma Frost has posed:
The tablet only has a few words on it where Emma cleared her schedule with her secretary and is now well past the entry and is making her way through the open living room and is shedding her fakeskin along the way towards her own bedroom. Goodness this nap idea is really sunk in and Emma's going for the full nap.

"You coming?" Emma asks no one in particular, but obviously Catseye as she's the only other thing in the penthouse.

Catseye has posed:
Catseye is unfortunately not as advanced with her reading as she is with talking, and that too is a bit imperfected. So she just looks at the tablet curiously, before batting her paw against it, testing if it does anything. "Emmamother...what flat thing do?"

Emma Frost has posed:
<<it's a way to me to communicate with other humans or to make notes for me to read later. Also it has a few games on it.>> The White Queen thinks towards Catseye as she stand next to her bed without her fakeskin and slips under the multi-thread count sheets and smiles happily as she lays down. <<Come Kitty, come join mother for pets before I fall asleep.>>

Catseye has posed:
Hearing that it's a way to communicate, Catseye lowers her head right against the tablet, her nose bumping the glass surface of the screen, and then she yells loudly, "HELLO SMOOTHSKINS! CATSEYE SAYS HI!" She then turns her head to press her ear to the device, waiting to hear the reply. Normally she'd jump at nap and patting, but she's curious about this magical device.

Emma Frost has posed:
Unseen, a few rooms away, Emma lays down on her bed and rolls her eyes at Catseye and stiffles a laugh. "That's not quite how it works cute Kitty." Emma smiles faintly as she lays her head against her pillow and yawns big time before slowly beginning to close her eyes.

Catseye has posed:
When there's no reply, and with Emma sounding as though she's true to her words, Catseye leaps back down from the counter and races for the bed. Where Emma soon feels the furball bumping into her as she leaps on the bed and curls up next to Emma for a comfy nap. "Sleepy time."

Emma Frost has posed:
Emma reaches out and puts her hand on the cat's shoulder and gently massages her fur while speaking gently with her eyes clothes. "You can practice being a human with me if you'd like, I don't mind either way kitten."

Catseye has posed:
"Catseye comfy, sleepy sleep now," she yawns and presses more firmly against Emma, closing her eyes and wrapping her tail about herself.
