[The knock on the door of the one armed Liquid's house probably was unexpected.

That was alright. Liquid could wait. And when the door finally opened, there would be an interesting sight. A Liquid, no longer eyepatched, stood there before the door. His coat was fastened tightly up to his neck and there was an awkward expression on his face. Held gently in his hands, cradled against himself, was a pale gray kitten with big green eyes. It mewed impatiently squirming as if it sensed the awkwardness of the man holding it.]

It seems that Mantis has a core that doesn't completely hate everyone. It's rather refreshing.

I wouldn't have believed it until I came h ere, but I'll take your word for it.

It's strange, as well. I hadn't thought about relationships past simply taking care of the physical urge. Without that on both sides, I find myself a bit... possessive of him.

I barely thought of either. [A low laugh.] How sweet, Brother!

You can desist with the patronising tone, Brother.

Given who it is, I have to wonder when the true psychotic side of him comes back and how that will effect our relationship.

Oh no, I'm really quite amused. How times have changed.

...hm. No one can truly tell that.

Hm. Affection starved as I am, I supposed having any, even from a psychotic psychic, feels like what I have craved.

Shut your mouth. You're not with him because you're attention starved, you're with him because you like being with him.

I won't deny I like being with him. He's rather interesting.

It's the last pairing I would have expected. But I'm happy for you.

After what I know of Ocelot, and how much scheming he's done against us in the future, I'm rather surprised for you pairing up with that young version.

[Liquid shifted uncomfortably. Considering the fact he was bandaged up under his coat after their little fun session following his alternate's leaving? He's not surprised his alternate is surprised.]

That Ocelot has not betrayed me yet.

I rather doubt he will, unless it's part of an elaborate sceme. He's strangely open about his attachment to you.

I doubt he will also. At first, I was suspicious but now... well.

We've been rather lucky in finding a person good for ourselves, haven't we?

We have. It's remarkable. But I think we deserve them.

I hadn't thought those words would be possible before h- kitten, don't even think of jumping down from here.

[And he scooped up the about to pounce on something imaginary on the floor kitten]

I can't keep it, you realise. I'm not a particularly paternal type, and neither is Mantis. I have no care to keep a pet as it is.

That's alright. I'll keep it for you and you can just pick it up whenever you feel in the mood for it.

[Hell, what's one more?]

[The kitten wriggled and tries to lick the nose of the man holding it.]

That is rather kind of you.

[He smiled a little at the kitten, plopping back onto his lap]

Oh, not really. Ocelot seems to attract them so I've gotten used to having them around.

Ocelot attracts them? Brother, there is so much to be said about your boyfriend, with a cat codename, attracting cats.

He's very catlike, too. In fact, the first time I met him, he ended up curled up in my lap.

My. It's rather impressive that you ended up with a human cat as your lover.

[Liquid bursts out laughing.]

That's a fascinating description, really.

[Liquid joined his alternate in laughter, then lifted his hand to cup that jawline]

He's quite interesting.
