Baby's on fire.

[Sun Kim]

"Mmfffmm." Kim swatted absently by his ear, face thoroughly planted into his pillow. It was his one time a week where he didn't have practice or a night class. And Douglas did. (Ha.) This was the time during the week that he spent in his dorm for some alone time.

Or some not so alone time. But that was dirty and perverted, and frankly not happening right now. Besides, his door was open.

Instead he was flopped onto his bed, wearing just his pants (he'd taken a shower not too long ago, thanks) with his face into his pillow. Iseul, his beloved cat, was sitting rather comfortably on his back, occasionally leaning her head over to lick his ear. He was sure it wasn't for any reason other than to annoy him. Or maybe he'd missed a spot in the shower. In that case, he thanked her. Otherwise she could stop. It tickled.

And she was a cat, and that was so not happening. She was his baby.

[Cullen Palmer]

Cullen had actually opted out of night classes this quarter. He considered it when he was picking classes, but decided it would just be best to get everything out of the way in the morning. No weekend classes either. He just wanted a normal, easy to handle schedule with plain general classes. He hadn't picked a majour yet so there was no reason for him to deal with anything confusing.

He had actually been down in his own dorm, not doing anything more exciting than reading for his history class when he came across a passage about a witch in Scotland who was one of the first to use certain types of wood in wandmaking. It really didn't have much to do with his sudden realization that he didn't remember if they had practice tomorrow or not except that it made him wonder how many scottish people he knew and came up with Denise. A long process but he got there. He needed to ask someone so Sterling didn't kick his ass and the first person he thought of was Kim. He liked Kim. He didn't always give him crap. Plus he remembered where his dorm was.

Closing his book, he left his things on his bed and apparated up to his floor. Down the hall, he stopped at his open door, knocking on the door frame and peeking in. "Um... Kim?"

[Sun Kim]

Iseul perked her ears up, turning her head to the door with a soft meow. Trying to alert Kim. Not that she didn't think this new boy hadn't done it. She just knew she could do it better.

"Huh?" Kim lifted his head up, turning carefully to look at the door. Making sure, for his own safety, that Iseul didn't move very far. Knowing her, she'd probably grab onto his back on her way off.

Oh look. Cullen Palmer. Cool. "Hey. Come in."

[Cullen Palmer]

He started feeling awkward about the second he decided he would come up here. He didn't really know Kim super well. They weren't really friends or anything but they had been around eachother a bit. Talking at pracrice, partying after games. Overall he knew he was a good guy but still, this was his dorm. He hadn't invited him. Not like he could have called ahead, though. Magick but no phone.

He only really wanted to ask him a quick question but when he invited him in he found himself walking in. Reaching up he mussed up the back of his hair a bit, really just needing something to do in the new situation. "Hey, I uh..."

He was about four or five steps in when he stopped to get down to what he really needed. And then he saw the most fantastic cat in the world. He had never seen such a big, wild looking housecat. Had to be magickal. He blinked, totally losing his train of thought and staring at her. After a moment he grinned, walking over and kneeling down to pet her. It was probably really rude or dangerous but he was too distracted to care. "Wow~ Look at you!"

[Sun Kim]

He uh--? Kim kept his head propped Cullen's direction, Iseul still on his back. She seemed comfortable. Whatever. He watched Cullen for a moment before- of course- he had to notice the adorable Savannah on his back. Cute kid, but predictable it seems.

Cullen was lucky.

Iseul just so happened to love being petted. And she didn't mind men. In fact, she loved men. Women were okay too. Whatever. She just moved up into the petting, starting a low purr.

Of course, she was such a little player. Kim always knew it.

"I see you found Iseul."

[Cullen Palmer]

He had crouched down next to the bed, sitting on his heels. One arm rested absently on the bed in front of him while the other continued petting the gorgeous creature. ...Iseul. Cullen couldn't help but smile as she moved up into his hand, scratching behind her ears. Now, he wasn't the type of guy to believe in love at first sight but...

Wait. Was Kim talking?

He blinked, glancing up at him like he'd forgotten he was even there. He tried to wipe the grin off his face but it wasn't working so well. "Iseul? Is she... what is she?"

[Sun Kim]

After a moment or so more, Kim flopped his head down on the pillow. Facing Cullen, of course. Iseul had made herself comfortable again, and it felt nice. He could sleep right here. It took a bit of effort not to let his eyes close.

Oh. Cullen had responded. Right.

"She's a Savannah." As if that explained everything. "Non-magickal."

[Cullen Palmer]

Cullen wouldn't have noticed. He had turned his attention back to the cat. He continued smiling, petting down her long back now. He would have taken into account that he was touching very close to his shirtless teammate's skin but, again, he was in love. Nothing else mattered.

He chuckled, loving her response to his petting. "You know you're gorgeous, don't you Iseul?"

He heard that she was a Savannah and didn't react much -he didn't know what it meant- but when he heard the word 'non-magickal' he stopped everything he was doing and stared up at him. "What?"

[Sun Kim]

Iseul purred and nuzzled and Cullens hand, Kim could feel it on his bare back. It tickled a little. But it was very comfortable at the same time. This was why he had a cat. The love and attention. Plus it felt kind of cool having her weight on his back. He could feel his eyes closing.

She didn't nod or anything. She was a cat, after all. But she did sort of emanate an aura of 'I know'.

Hm? Of course no one knew what a Savannah cat was. That was obvious. Glad he ignored it though. It shocked him a little though, opening his eyes to look at Cullen when he spoke. Er. "It's a non magickal breed."

[Cullen Palmer]

He blinked at Kim and then back at Iseul as if he expected her to tell him these things. Back to Kim.

"But... I've never..."

Heh.

He looked back to the cat, scratching behind her ears again.

"Wow."

[Sun Kim]

"Never what?" He chuckled a bit, trying not to move Iseul too bad. Oh Cullen, such a strange kid. Cute.

"Savannah's are probably the largest breed of domestic cat." A slight shrug, getting comfy again. "I've had Iseul for five years. She used to fit in my hand."

[Cullen Palmer]

Yet again he was distracted. How could you not be with her laying there like that? After a moment of forgetting he'd even said anything, Cullen look up again, head resting on his arm.

"Huh?"

He blinked before sitting up straight again.

"Oh, I mean, I've never seen one before."

Resist the cute. Resist-

He turned back to Iseul, leaning in to put behind her cute little head with both hands. He was definitely talking to her again. "They can't all be this pretty~"

[Sun Kim]

Mhm. He was back to closing his eyes. Sprawled out on his bed. Iseul on his back. This was the life. Plus, Cullen was making her happy so Kim could just chill.

"Most people haven't."

Did he sound comfy? He hoped so. Because he definitely was.

And no one could resist her cute.

"Yeah."

[Cullen Palmer]

Cullen had completely forgotten why he came in here, that much was obvious. He was content now to sit on his feet and pet the gorgeous thing. He'd realise how awkward this was later.
