He's odd-looking, to Fonn's eyes, and something about his body language makes her feel just a bit uncertain, but the way he reacts to the kittens is nothing short of charming. She gives him a tentative nod of greeting and sets her crocheting aside, settling on the ground beside him and peering into the box with a nod.
"If they were normal kittens, I'd guess they were maybe six weeks old," she says. "With this kind, it's hard to say for sure, but they're definitely not fledged yet."
"I'm house-sitting for a...a friend." She's not sure whether she can call Prince Loki a friend, per se, but he's not a formal teacher or master, either, so that will have to do. "And somehow the mother got in and made of nest of his sofa. I waited a while in case she came back, but I think something must have happened to her."
Meanwhile, many of the kittens are dozing, and he may note that there are a couple toys in the box for them, as well as blankets and a shallow water dish. A couple of the more brightly-colored ones--one looks a bit like a goldfinch, and the other is a calico with a short tail--blink at him and watch the motion of his hand.
