[Then it's quiet. There's a shuffling sound, maybe movement? It's a flurry of indeterminable activity that she doesn't care to explain and simply requests-]
Okay, now you can 'nya' again and see if it works.
Alright? [Oh, ever mysterious Ren, they shan't question your divine command. Clearing their throat, Chara gives her a soft, but very heartfelt nyaa- and even if she can't see it, their free hand lifts into the air, curled up like a paw.
[It's dead silent, like the few seconds after an audition is over and only the audience is clapping, while the judges look stoically on. It's like that, because Ren's looking down at ESP, who she had managed to pull into her hands during that previous shuffling adventure, watching his reaction.
His ears perk at the sound. She holds her breath. The verdict is-]
Mrrooooww
[And Ren claps her hands together because that's a 10/10 if she ever heard one and follows with a quiet-]
[Chara very nearly leaps out of their skin. The verdict is positive (of course) but also- totally unexpected? It shouldn't have been. Of course she still has that cat.]
Purrfect. Do I get a prize,meow, or shall we save that fur later?
[Hot damn, they're good at meowing. That deserves some kind of extra credit and while her cat is silent for this part, she's more than happy to pick up the slack.]
[Spices didn't exist before the elves ergo they invented it! It's not that much of a stretch-they make a ton of items. Soap, trinkets, weapons. Why not spices?? Why not indeed.]
Yeah, it's in a jar and you put it on food, but not a lot or Taako will 'cry for a three hour wagon ride' again.
[Whatever that means. The point is, don't make him cry.]
[This is sound logic and they have no intentions of correcting it ever.]
Sounds like Taako really loves it, huh? [They have a better game in mind, Ren. It's called how many days will it take for Taako to start tearing his hair out if they cast that jar into the ocean.
Unfortunately, it's not a Rin-appropriate game. It's PG-13.]
[Taako loves it, that's right. That understanding must mean they get the importance of protecting this incredible red spice and she can teach them not to use too much when sprinkling it over food. It's good. It's fine. It's gonna work out perfectly.]
You should come over-
[It's the middle of the night, and she seems to recognize that as her words fly out of her mouth.]
[There's a 50/50 chance of her zooming around the camp for another hour or cuddling up next to ESP and Seto for awhile. Maybe roll over to Lup or Taako at some point. Magnus is cozy too. There are Options. So she won't argue with that, but-]
[Too bad she can't tell they're a filthy liar. That's fine, it's whatever. One day she'll find out and tuck them in until they can't breathe. Bet they'll sleep then.]

You mean like, nya?
[Or just one with too many meme connotations for Ren to understand.]

You get a whole egg with dried fish spice.
[The greatest!! prize!! of all!!]
no subject
Not that he has anything to worry about, since Chara shall be very generously donating their prize to cat-kind.]
Delicious. [Nope.]
no subject
It's very good and when you put the pretty red spice on it, it's better.
no subject
Let me guess; the pretty red spice is the elves' invention.
[Pls confirm Chara needs to know who to turn their nose up at.]

You can play with it too. I'll show you how.

When the sun's up. Then we can play together.
no subject
Agreed. Before then, however, perhaps you should consider sleeping.
[You, not them. Because Chara is nothing if not a blatant hypocrite.]

Okay, are you going to sleep too?
