Great. If you're ready, you can find everything you need over at the counter.

[ You can see a whole pile of useful medical items: blankets, bandages, antibiotic ointment, the clipboard with the aforementioned chart, gauze, and metal poles. There's also catnip, paper towels, and other cleaning supplies. ]

I'm gonna go up front and see about calling around to find out where that lazy ass has gotten off to; I'll trust you ladies to do what you can.

[looking at the chart]

'I' must mean injured, and 'S'?

Sick, probably. But, uh, let me get the antibiotic - that's easy enough to figure out.

[taking the ointment and looking around to see if there's any obviously injured cats]

[ in fact, all of the cats are visibly injured, though some of them are worse than others

btw, I promise not to let this be too gory, don't want to trigger anybody where animals are involved ]

Hey, Daisy, give me a hand here.

[and with that, she's going to go from the ones that look the worst to those that look comparatively less injured, carefully putting on some ointment and bandages on their injuries]

[Daisy is very careful with the cats, and she coos to them a lot and tells them what good kitties they are. surreptitiously checking to see if she recognizes any of the names on the nametags, tho]

[ OKAY, so from worst to least:

Approaching the cage, there's a strange looking cat inside. From appearances, it looks like it's been in a fairly bad fight at some point: scratch and bite marks cover its back, an eye, and one shoulder, and it is apparently trying to keep off of one leg. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "SPARROW."

Approaching the cage, there's a white tiger inside. There's a deep, nasty bite mark on one. You feel a very deep sense of guilt when approaching this cat, like you'd just like to run away. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "YUKINE."

Approaching the cage, there's a spotted cat inside. It appears to have gotten into a fight with another cat, and its injuries, one over each eye, are instantly evident. Something about these wounds strike you as being old—as though they'd been reopened somehow. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "LACE."

Approaching the cage, there's a Snowshoe cat inside. There's a deep scratch mark above one of its eyes. You feel a very deep sense of guilt when approaching this cat, like you'd just like to run away. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "VASH."

Approaching the cage, there's a Maine Coon cat inside. It looks like its been bitten on one leg, which it is also refusing to stand on. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "TOGETIC."

Approaching the cage, there's a Burmese cat inside. It looks like its been scratched, but its wounds are quite light. It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "GULL."

After cleaning the wounds and caring for all of these animals, the majority of whom respond quite lovingly to you in spite of the occasional feeling of hesitation, you feel considerably better, like something that's been holding you down for a long time is finally lifted.

A butterfly materializes and hovers between the two of you. It gives off a faintly warm feeling. Now would be the time to use your bug catcher.

Hope it helps.

[bug catcher go]

Rest well, little ones. You'll feel better soon.

The others, then?

Did we miss some? Yeah, let's see what we can do for the rest.

[ not all wounds are visible or so easily cured. let's try two first. ]

[ Approaching the large cage next to the white tiger, there's a grey-ish, black-ish tiger inside. ((never mind the fierce look , it's not!!!) You can't see any visible scratches or bites, but seeing it you feel irritated and sad and guilty. It has numerous tags on its collar (which really resembles a scarf?), a few of which seem to have suspiciously been removed, the front-most which is silver and reads "YATO."

In another of the cages there's a Persian cat inside. You can't see any visible scratches or bites, but you feel angry when you see this cat.It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "CROWN." As you approach it, the cat draws away from you, like its wary. Unlike any other hissing cat you've seen today, though, it has decided to greet you by peeing. Everywhere. ]

Ah. That's nice, isn't it? Very nice.

[goes to get a towel, sigh]

[DESPERATELY TRYING TO AVOID CAT PEE, she is probably not entirely successful]

Jesus Christ.

[and then since she sees daisy is going to get a towel, she's approaching the tiger's cage, trying to get Yato cat out]

Can you grab one for me, too? This shit is nasty.

[grabbing another towel for Natalie]

Do you want to try Yato, and I'll take Mr. Pee-on-everything-that-comes-near-me?

If you're okay with that, I would really like to not get pissed on again. Thank you and I'm sorry.

[time to get yato cat out]

It's alright.

[she's approaching the cage with Pee Cat in it]

Ghilan'nain, I've one of your creatures to heal--lend me your aid.

[speaking gently to the cat as she slowly opens the cage]

I won't hurt you, da'len.

[ this creature--is it really a cat? or maybe it's more like a gremlin. It seems entirely untamed and unsocialized, and it hisses again when you approach ]

Oh, hush. You're not doing yourself any favors like that. Let me see... have you been eating well? If you're relieving yourself just like that, maybe you need better food.

[going to find some cat food and water to bring to it]

[ Well, he does seem very appreciative of food and water, yes. In fact--he might be resource guarding?? Is that a thing cats can do??? Whatever, he's totally being ridiculously possessive of this food bowl right now as soon as Daisy puts it in. ]

Go on, I won't take it from you. I'll turn around so I can't see you eating it.

[does so]
