Ferravale : Chieftain's home

Blisa the cat and Ferdinand the ferret. Zhu the fox.

Ferdinand sighs. He has been trying to get Blisa to eat something for hours, but she refuses. The occasional tear trickles out of her eyes as she lays on the couch. The ferret leans against the fireplace mantel and rubs his temples in frustration, trying to soothe his nerves.

Having not been back to Ferravale for some time the vixen Zhu is somewhat short of money and thought she might pay a visit to the chieftain under the guise of seeing what might be available in the way of work while trying to see what she might be able to lift from the residence and sell later. Of course she had intended to see the chieftain and not hear the sounds of sighing on the other side of the doorway. The vixen almost turns to leave even as she raises her paw to knock on the door but she does end up knocking anyway being more curious than anything.

Great. Company. Ferdinand sighs again and answers the door, his golden eyes hard as he looks at the vixen. "How may I help you?" he asks flatly, but not rudely. It's plain that he's had a long day. The melancholy Blisa can be seen, laying on the couch, looking forlorn.

Well these two are two that Zhu vaguely remembers, very vaguely. The vixen has an apology and a dismissal poised on her lips but the forlorn kitten seems to take all of the wind from those words and instead she blurts out " What's wrong wit tha wee thing? " and even manages to look slightly concerned and confused at the same time seeing as what she was about to say is still running through her mind and her real motive for coming here as well are all conflicting rather nicely and making quite the din between her ears.

Ferdinand sighs and leans his head tiredly against the doorframe. "I afraid I can't tell you. My both, Chieftain Thcioto, made me vow to not tell anybeatht. Blitha...hath gotten thome heart-wrenching newth, and the'th taking it poorly. That'th all I can tell you."

Well thinks Zhu maybe this will work out well enough if I put enough panache into it and she goes for it by trying to sweep past Ferdinand and "accidentally' bumping into him very accurately and stiffly with a well aimed hip and making for the kitten, it's time for a good kitten snooging and Blisa is her target. " Oh ya sweet wee thing! Whats wrong with you eh? " She plans on going to pick up the kitten and give her a big squishy kissy hug.

Blisa hates squishy kissy hugs, but the vixen doesn't have the opportunity to find that out, because Ferdinand grabs her by the arm and forcibly shoves her back out the door with surprising strength. "Thank you for the bump, but I think we're good. Good eve." And with that the ticked off ferret slams the door shut and bolts it, effectively dismissing the fox.

And I had to scram here....thanks for reading!
