[Suddenly this image appears on your network feed. It's a cry for help. ]

I seem to have a pawblem. A friend of mine is missing. 
His name is Spots and his current whereabouts are unknown.

Like the poster says, please assist if you can.  The sooner we find him the better. 

He gets temperamental when he's hungry :( 

Of course, I'll hand out a purrfect reward to the person who contributes the most. 

Contact this address for more information.  Thank you for your time.

How could you have permitted this to happen?!

[ Hibiki is fairly new to pet ownership herself. But she has since learned many things about cats, which blind her to all other pawsible interpretations of this post.

Like this: ]

Cats are small Celebrities! There are limits to disrespect!

[phantomtrick]

The kitty decided to go on an adventure without me.

[ Honestly, he needs to be more attentive and aware. This could have been avoided. He's a terrible cat dad. ]

When I find him I'll apologize for all the disrespect.

[priforprince]

Prostrating yourself wouldn't go amiss.

Honestly. What a less-than-useless specimen....

[ So she says, but unseen since this is a text conversation, she's picking up her tablet from where she'd left it on the coffee table and pulling up a certain app. And now, from Apollo's temple in the Central District, about a dozen small stuffed purple goat toys on wheeled platforms roll out, camera eyes whirring, as about a dozen separate video feeds pop up on Hibiki's screen.

Hibiki sprawls on her couch, propping up one leg. Is no one competent in this puniverse but she?

Her own cat, Lady Rosalie François Charlotte Antoinette Shikyoin the First, crouches behind the couch. It has been a whole half hour since she last had food. Soon, surely, the large servant will realize it is time for more. ]

[phantomtrick]

Sorry I should have been more careful. Spots doesn't exactly trust me yet.

[ Oh? That kitten looks like she's in high spirits. Ren can only hope that Spots is doing his best somewhere.

He pours himself a glass of coffee before sending out more replies. It'll give him the energy he needs to search more.]

Is that a friend of yours?

What district was he lost in?

[phantomtrick]

Central district. Last seen around 6:40pm.

He must have gotten hungry or something.

[unlucky7]

I'll keep an eye out. Any particular food he likes or doesn't like?

[ Completely glancing over all the cat puns here since there is a cat missing! The highest of all emergencies! ]

Have you tried shouting into the world how much you love and miss him yet and see if he hears it and comes back to you?!

[phantomtrick]

Actually, no I haven't.

[ Thank you for not pointing out all the cat puns, Minako. There are more pressing issue at hand here. Ren takes a few minutes to reply back. He's still searching for the kitty!! ]

I'll try that next. Wanna join?

[He could always use some company. Minako, do you feel up to it? ]

[reloves]

[ Some people might consider the very idea ridiculous.

But Minako did suggest it with 100% seriousness. And who is she to ever turn down a social invite, let alone from a protagonist a fellow cat lover? ]

Of course, we can't leave poor Spots to wander around alone! Just tell me where I have to be and I'll be there.

Sorry to hear about your pawblem. Do you still need assistance? I'd be more than happy to help.

[phantomtrick]

I should be alright, thanks.

Spots couldn't find his way back home. He's safe now though.

[ Poor kitten was so lost and confused!!! The next set of text messages arrives a bit later.]

Do you wanna meet him?

[incinerators]

I'm glad to hear he made it safe and sound.

And that sounds wonderful, if you wouldn't mind, Ren?

Don't male cats in particular go wandering? They can be gone for days and then reappear as if nobody has been worried for a second. How long has he been gone?

I'll keep my eyes open though.

[phantomtrick]

It's been almost two days. I got worried because he didn't eat.

Maybe he's okay. Thanks for keeping a look out.

[smilingbullet]

Cats are predators, so he'll probably manage. And even if he doesn't hunt there probably are a lot of people he can beg for food from.

[deniles]

Maybe he left because you have terrible puns.

[phantomtrick]

That can't be right.

I'm sure it's for another reason that's not pun related at the very least.

[deniles]

Then that cat is a saint to deal with you.

Must be pawsitively purrfect.

[ This, at least, is something Nanako can still manage to check on from home in her bed, where she's still recuperating from her illness.

Although her eyes go wide when she sees the message, dismay on her face. ]

Oh no! You lost your kitty? Has he been missing long?

[phantomtrick]

He's been missing for thirty five hours.

Spots is my only friend. Please tell me if you see him.

[ He isn't lying about Spots being his only friend, okay. ]

[welcome_home]

Oh no! That is a long time! Where did you last see him? Did you check the places he likes to go already?

I'll keep an eye out for him. Shouldn't be too hard, Cats tend to find their way to my temple often enough.Is there anything I need to know about him? Does he like other cats? Does he have a collar?

[phantomtrick]

He doesn't like other cats too much. Spots isn't too social.

He'll most likely be on his own out there. There's a collar on him and I have pictures.

[purr_ince]

Interesting. No matter I'm sure my cats will keep an eye out for him. Please do. I'll be better able to find him if I have a picture.
