Dex's new friend? aka, Pippi, pt. 1
The team has had a chance to settle into their new headquarters. Its taken some work, but the essentials are there. And once that was done, Pippi set right to work on the non-essential, but important business of making sure the place was stocked with good shampoo, conditioner, general health care products, and decorative items like carpeting, drapes and the rest. Despite her tendencies, she actually knows color and good taste when it comes to this sort of thing - the place looks comfortable, and like a semi-professional interior decorator got a hold of it.

But something has been missing.

Whether or not that something is a new friend for Dex, he's getting one anyway. At one point when he returns home, this (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mau0qfm1IK1r33eyzo5_r2_250.gif) is waiting for him. Well, this, wearing a green ribbon around her neck, and a tag reading 'Miss Fluff', with her address noted on the back of the green lantern symbol shaped tag.

	"He," Dex said and jerked a thumb in Din's direction. "Thinks the cat is a spy or has explosives implanted in it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I," Dinadan counters, "am concerned by a cat appearing in headquarters addressed to a teammate who has no idea where it's from; and that said teammate is behaving with unnecessarily high aggression when I express that concern. Pippi, I assume you're familiar with this cat?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah. I found Miss Fluff and cleaned her up, and she said she wanted to be Dex's cat. So she is!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And he better stay away from it," Dex growled, still shielding the kitten. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"All right." Dinadan took a deep breath at let it out. "Pippi, in the future, could you let us know when a new animal is going to be moving into headquarters? Miss Fluff made a spirited attempt to eat me earlier, and I wasn't expecting to have to fend off a cat today. Dex, you want to hammer this out now that I'm no longer worried that your cat is a threat, or do you want some time to calm down first?"

	"Oh! Ok. I'll let you know when I find you a pet, don't worry!" Because the problem was clearly that Din was sad Dex got a cat and he didn't. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's not--" Dinadan huffs, hands twitching as he struggles not to clap one to his face. "Thanks but no thanks, I'm good. On pets, I mean. I've already got Tris, I'm good." He casts a look toward Dex. "Now or later, GL?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
