[Spam | Deck]

[A massive, nearly 900 pound big cat sidles his way onto the deck (easier to get to than the CES and feels more open somehow. He has a very faint fluff of fur where a mane should be, and spots on his forehead, and the dimmed stripes of a tiger that only came half-way through. Gaheris can talk, to either humans or animals. He's just basically not feeling particularly inclined to.

In fact, he feels more inclined to pace around for a bit, intending to lay down, until he finds a head of lettuce that's been left out near the greenhouse. He goes over to it, sniffs it, flicks the dark tufted tip of his faintly striped tail to and fro.

That's an unusual urge that he's feeling.

A moment later there's that same massive 900 lb cat rolling around on his back, and then hopping back up to pounce at the head of lettuce. Batting it, and then going after it as if it might get away.]



OOC: Rhade is a Liger. He mostly will be friendly- he's a big social kitty. Be warned, he might clean you. And his head is this big.

[Rhade stops his bounding after the rolling ball as he hears the words, twitching his tail since he's still in a primed position. But the voice he recognizes, and he comes trotting over as if nothing is wrong in the world.]

Not tried to chew your own shoes yet, have you? [The voice is Rhade's, and just as surprisingly light for a mammoth cat as it is for a too-stocky man.]

[Rhade was a giant lion... thing. He'd never seen a liger in person before, so really, for all he knew this was some alien species native to Rhade's homeworld rather than Earth. Still. It's weird to see him like this, just as it's been weird to see Steve the dog and Natasha the leopard and Ben the cat, but.

He grins, and sticks to his usual sense of dry humor.]


Nah. Tempted, but I don't wanna have to ask the Admiral for a new pair and wind up with some girl's shoes or something.

[That big nose suddenly comes very close to Bucky's head as he's compelled to sniff. It's what's keeping him from going back and attacking the lettuce because OMG IT MIGHT RUN AWAY WHILE HIS BACK IS TURNED. Fortunately, their acquaintanceship is distant enough that he's not at risk of face rubbing, healthy wallowing, or cleaning, but he is curious about where he's been.]

I'll bet Ben needs a scratching post. [He's a cat. Rhade can pretty much bet money that Ben is a cat.

Or he would bet money, but it's irrelevant here and also he is naked and without pockets.]

[Bucky jerks back slightly at the sniff, cautious, but the new instincts are pretty much demanding he sniff back, so while he keeps his distance, you are also being smelled a bit.

He grins at the comment, because, well.]


How'd you know?

Call it a lucky guess.

[If cats could have raised eyebrows, he would have there. He makes up for his lack of usually very active eyebrows by flicking his rounded ears.]

[Bucky barked out a laugh before nodding towards Rhade, curious.]

What the hell kinda cat are you?

Apparently two different ones? A Tiger and a Lion mixed. They're all extinct by my time, save for the ones Braxiatel and I took from the Barge.

[He's not sure what he is. But bumps Bucky with his head in a friendly way. He likes being a big kitty.]
