[Everybody take 2000 XP for the previous scene.]
Lothlo and Naithi discuss the possibilities of pet kittens.
Zazu just watches, his thoughts perhaps a bit troubled.
Ash decides to hang onto the green-ribboned kitten for a while. Actually, she'd like to take it home.
Nightingale stays where she is and keeps singing. The kitten watches, wide-eyed, for several minutes. It mews. Knowledge Nature 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {Cats are great at climbing up. They kind of suck at climbing down. It may be best to climb up and retrieve this kitten, now that it's calm, rather than waiting for it to come to you.}

ooc: Where there any other kittens for Naithi to track?
Zazu (AC20, HP46) and Boyo the bunny (AC18, HP23) (Cayzle) Saturday July 23rd, 2022 10:57:14 PM
Zazu and Boyo stand under the stranded kitten, again ready to cast Feather Fall if needed.
Ash (RobC) -- AC 17/12/15 -- CMD 14 -- HP 60/60 Saturday July 23rd, 2022 11:00:50 PM
Ash stands guard with the boy. She keeps her eye out for anyone else threatening to knock the box out of his hands again. In the mean time, she uses her free hand to reach into her purse and pull out a gold coin. "This is for the kitten" she explains. She wouldn't feel right taking it for free. She considers offering him a few more coins but any more than one might see him made a target for thieves.
Naithi (JamesD) AC: 24/16/19 HP: 42/42 , CMD = 18 Camalayas AC = 22/16/16 Saturday July 23rd, 2022 11:27:54 PM
Naithi also inquires as to whether the kittens are for sale.
Sahabiel (EstherLauren) -- AC 22/11/21 -- HP: 56/56 Sunday July 24th, 2022 3:02:25 AM
Sahabiel enquires with Pell if she can keep the kitten that she recovered. Although the boy was giving the kittens away, she was going to slip him a few coins 'to include the ribbon with the cat', but seeing Ash pull out a gold piece for a trade where a silver would already have been generous, she feels it would be awkward so she keeps her peace about that until she sees how this is going to be resolved.
Beech (JohnC) AC 19(23)/14/15,HP 40/40 Character Sunday July 24th, 2022 2:27:28 PM
Beech, just watches, he knows he's not climbing anything like a tree...
Lothlo (WillD) -- AC: 20/15/16, HP: 40/53, CMD: 23 Monday July 25th, 2022 9:17:39 PM
Lothlo watches the kittens in the basket as the others talk about adopting some. It looks like we have a lot of cat people in our group.
DM Kathy Monday July 25th, 2022 10:23:44 PM Naithi checks for other kittens, but the only one remaining is the one up in the tree that Nightingale is after. Well, and the on Ash has decided to keep.
Ash offers up a coin for the kitten. Pell's eyes widen. "But--but they're free. To a good home," he says. "And I know you'll look after yours, so you don't need to pay me."
Sahabiel asks Pell if she can keep the kitten she found, and the boy nods enthusiastically. "Yes," he says. "You were all so good about rescuing them, I know you'll take good care of them."
Naithi asks whether the kittens are for sale, but Pell shakes his head. "No," he says, "they're free to a good home."
Beech declines to climb the tree and Lothlo declines to adopt a kitten.
Up in the tree, Nightingale's lullaby is beginning to pay off and eventually she is able to stretch up and grab the kitten. Climbing down one-handed is a bit of an adventure, but Zazu is ready with his Feather Fall and in the end everybody makes it back to the ground safely.
Pell is overjoyed. "Oh, thank you!" he cries. "Thank you for saving them! They're so little, you see, they can be hurt if you're not careful. But you were careful. Do you want a kitten?"
OOC: if you decide to take a kitten, you get to decide what color/markings it is, and whether it's male or female.
Zazu (AC20, HP46) and Boyo the bunny (AC18, HP23) (Cayzle) Monday July 25th, 2022 11:45:33 PM
"Don't worry Boyo, I am happy with just one furry friend. Besides, you are much cuter than any kitten!"
Ash (RobC) -- AC 17/12/15 -- CMD 14 -- HP 60/60 Tuesday July 26th, 2022 3:38:43 AM
Ash smiles and strokes the fur of the sleeping black kitten that she holds. It still has the green string tied around it's neck. "They're free, but I'm guessing you probably have a mother cat to look after. Please. Take this as my thanks". Ash insists that the boy takes the coin, but if for some reason he still refuses she will place it back in her pocket. He would have his reasons.
Like most of the others in the group, she now has an animal to call her own. Ash glances towards Zazu and with a big grin she whispers in the kittens ear. "Ssshh. Don't you listen now. You're a cutie".

Kittens are not really Panzer's concern. Cute they are, but the fighter's mind is more on the council's questions and on Galen's conversion of the thieves guild into an anti oppression guild.
Nightingale (JonS) HP 43/43 AC 21 CMD: 21 Tuesday July 26th, 2022 6:10:37 PM
OOC: Sorry I had to run my Mom down to where she used to live to do legal stuff on selling her house and then bring her home
IC: Nightingale would like a female kitten - dark grey/colors if possible
Sahabiel (EstherLauren) -- AC 22/11/21 -- HP: 56/56 Tuesday July 26th, 2022 8:32:13 PM
Before they leave, Sahabiel makes sure to ask Pell about what the kittens have been eating so far, so that she'll have a better idea of what to provide her fuzzy little adoptee, the blue-ribbon wearing tabby with a pattern of dark spots and stripes on the background of his lighter grey fur.
Petting the kitten, she talks to it, <"Oh, we are going to need a name for you now, aren't we.. mm.. I am thinking Nibin.">
She also asks Pell about where she might buy a basket to keep the kitten in when she travels home with it, and in return for his helpfulness will give him two copper coins.
(ooc: I had no strong preference for fur colors, but since the other requests were for shades of black and grey, I figured I'd make it fit in with the same nest)
Lothlo (WillD) -- AC: 20/15/16, HP: 40/53, CMD: 23 Tuesday July 26th, 2022 9:12:00 PM
The kitten Lothlo rescued looks up at him with it's white mustache and gives a little mew. Aww, how can I say no to this little fellow. I may need to put a bell on him if case he darts off again.
