PILLOW FORT MEME

PILLOW FORT MEME!


Who said a meme has to have elaborate rules? You've just built the ULTIMATE FORT out of pillows, blankets, and couch cushions. Decide who gets in and who has to stay out. Throw jelly beans at invaders, read scary stories at midnight with a flashlight. Play truth or dare. Discover your inner child! Go nuts!

Roi gives Horvath a somewhat solemn expression of his own.

"...Admittedly, some of my knowledge comes from being born in not only a different world entirely from this one, but from a future time, too. For all I know, red canaries won't catch on as they did in my world."

He shrugs slightly, then leans back a bit. "Is it an inanimate object?"

Balthazar gets a quiet, grateful smile for his trouble. It's not a topic he wants to delve into now, but the sympathy is appreciated.

"They're usually yellow, at least where I come from, but the divergent world is noted. I can only hope what I've thought of is familiar where you come from, or this is could all be unfair. Yes, it's an inanimate object."

"That's true. You should tell me what stocks to invest in here." Balthazar grins and nudges Roi's knee with his own, then turns his attention to the game.

"Hmmm. Would it fit in the pillow fort?"

"I don't think you want to invest in cat nip concoctions. It wouldn't do well here. And then you'd have other cats pawing at your feet." He sticks his tongue out at Balthazar. He's pretty sure Balth was joking, but his own serious response is equally on the scope of joking - or so he hopes he's conveyed. And pretending to be jealous, maybe.

Horvath glances around the given space, which might fit another person, but it would get cramped, especially with as much room as his own legs take up. "No, not quite. Not even without us here."

"...What about cats pawing at your feet? I already have that at home."

Balthazar immediately has a new question, but it's Roi's turn, so he bites his tongue (figuratively) and responds to the joke instead. "Hmm, no you already take up most of my day. I don't have time for more students, especially feline ones."

He smiles fondly at Roi, although the reference to him being his student was for Horvath's sake. Their relationship is clear enough to the other Merlinian, but there's no reason to overemphasize it. "Roi hasn't met the girls yet, has he? I wonder if they'd take to him or whether they'd just see him as invading their territory."

He catches the fond smile, and returns it with an adoring smile of his own. "The girls? Well..." Roi isn't sure quite what to make of meeting, well, other cats, obviously. He doesn't see himself as a tom cat, so hopefully they wouldn't take offense.

In any case, inanimate object, won't fit in the pillow fort.... And there's the chance that it won't be from his world.

Roi's ears fold to the sides, and slightly backwards.

"Does it have historical significance?"
bitterguardian: (thoughtful)

Horvath's cats are slightly timid, since he almost never has guests, so they've seen very few people besides him in their lives. How they'd react to any other feline is an unknown factor, too.

Horvath gives a mild little frown at the question, and rubs at his beard briefly. "If it does, I'm unaware of it. That's as close as I can get to yes or no, I'm afraid."

"Okay, does it move about?" Balthazar cuts in with his question eagerly. Roi might find it educational, watching him interact with Horvath. It paints an interesting picture of what he must have been like as a boy and a young man.
purewhitepaws: ([human] huh?)

As Roi waits for the answer to that question, Roi does observe the two and their interactions. He's happy for them, really - two people from mostly the same world, in each other's shoes, and getting along.

He's glad for the both of them, that they're not alone.

On the other topic, it's unknown if the object has historical significance? How troubling. The answer is, in a way, a non-answer, in terms of "yes" or "no"....

"No. Hang on, that wasn't a fair answer, for Roi's turn... I'm sorry I can't give a better one." He's aware it doesn't quite fit the rules, too, but not sure how to fix that.

"Perhaps you should get an extra question, for that."
