4th Shuffle

[cajunspice]

Who: Remy and open.
Broadcast: Yes.
Action: WonderDuck.
When: Now.

Ah, I guess first things first, gotta apologize to fellow Ducks that we goin’ to get less room on the ship now, ‘cause I just got these guys. [The camera pans away from Remy’s face to reveal three little kittens, all huddled together and looking a little lost as they sat on his bed on the WonderDuck.] There was a breeder in the Savvy guild who was raisin’ pest huntin’ pets, ‘nd these three were considered runts of the litter. Said they were too small ‘nd weak ‘nd was just goin’ to off them, ‘nd, well, couldn’t be havin’ that now.

So, wanna ‘ntroduce ya’ll to Figaro, [The camera moves, zooming in on each kitten as he names them off.], Oliver, ‘nd Lucifer. Hopefully they'll make great crew mates.

Also, ya know, if 'nyone got tips for keepin' cats, that be well welcomed too.

I mean...if it's a long shift they probably shouldn't be alone. [Smooooth.]

[cajunspice]

[Yep, and he knows it.] Exactly! Strange place, being cooped up in small spaces for too long, cats do like to get out 'nd explore. Plus, would hate to make them shut ins, gotta know how to socialize so they don't get scared by new people showin' up all the time.

New people showing up all the time, Remy? Do you mean in the fleet or in your quarters? [Amused eyebrow raise.]

[cajunspice]

[A wide grin appeared across his face before Remy allowed it to settle again into a warm smile.] Ahh, now that would be kissin' 'nd tellin', non? Hardly be right of me to confirm or deny that, so 'll take a neutral stance on it all.

Always the perfect gentlemen. Always the mystery. [She smiles back at him. It's a fond look.]

[cajunspice]

Ahh, well see? Clearly if that be my reputation I've left m'self, I gotta keep up such a high standard with ya. [It was said with a wink, but also a smile rather than his normal grin, appreciating that glance he had gotten from her. He wasn't sure what kind of relationship she had with the Gambit from her world, but she was willing to give him a shot either despite or because of it, so Remy was willing to keep running with it.]

[They hadn't been exceptionally close, but they were team. Family. He left for reasons she could understand and it's not like she was there much at the end either since she was near Seattle training the next generation. But he was always and X-Man to her and it's hard to break that habit with this one even if she knows he hasn't been. He still could, right?]

Well, the cats are a good start.
