X SimonGrey X: here I am
Necrocarlotta: Oh... what happend?
X SimonGrey X: My computer does this,
remember? it used to do it all the time in
pasadena
X SimonGrey X: so it's your go
X SimonGrey X: i never got your post after
mine
Necrocarlotta: ::Her eyes show some distant sorrow
with liking to have met her grandmother, She nodded
with a smile then looks up to him with the idea runing
through her head of coming back:: Yeah, I would like
that,
::She looks down to the cub:: I wouldn't mind doing this
again......
Necrocarlotta: ::She thinks of the tricks:: Hmm tricks?
::She chuckles and turns her head for the wrestlig
mewling and growls from the cubs behind her, then
turned her attention back:: Sounds fun.
X SimonGrey X: *He smiled broadly, nodding a
bit* Excellent.. *Crystal blues moved
down to Mustafa who was pushing the bottle
away. He'd had almost a two thirds, being
the smallest, that was quite the
accomplishment.* Alright alright.. you can
play with your brothers and sister... *He
would set the bottle down, then the cub
into the crate. He would walk to the door,
then look back at her, offering his hand
for her to hold again.* C'mon. More to
see. You have to see the jaguar...
Necrocarlotta: The jaguar? ::her eyes perk, she walks
over to him and takes his hand::
Necrocarlotta: ::antisipation in her eyes basically::
X SimonGrey X: *His hand curled with hers
and he moved out into the hallway, glancing
to the waiting Sonya. He grinned lightly*
Thanks for the chance to feed the cubs.. I
think we'll be back soon to help you often,
my friend.. *He pulled her back down the
hallway, towards the door they came in.
Out they went into the night, further down
the path to the secret gardens... He wound
his way around to the panther's enclosure.
He was a dark sleek beast, his eyes were
reflecting the moonlight as he paced the
cage, that low feline growl resounding in
their ears as he stalked back and forth.
Riley spoke softly.* Grigore, do not speak
to me as such. Be nice, I've brought a
friend to meet you. *The jaguar paused in
his stalk at the bars and stared as Riley
spoke, then he leaned up against the bars,
calling to him and rubbing his head against
the bars, down his back, begging to be pet
like a house cat.*
Necrocarlotta: ::She looked in awe. She listened and
nearly stopped breathing because of how the beast
looked. She reverenlty fell silent and gave a small smile
and observed::
X SimonGrey X: (if you sent more than one
IM, i only got one)
Necrocarlotta: (I only sent one)
X SimonGrey X: *Crystal blues watched the
overgrown kitty. He quirked a grin and
chuckled softly* That's what I thought you
said.. Now be a good boy and go around to
the back, we'll give you your treat back
there. *the panther yowled pitifully at
him. Riley canted his head and looked
sternly* In the back, go on then... *The
panther began to move, and so did Riley.
He took her around the side to a gate,
again with the punch code. To the back of
the enclosure where Grigore met them.
Pacing back and forth. He was excited,
like a kitten. Crystal blues flicked to
Genna* You don't have to do this. He
really is a sweet heart, but if you're
scared of the big guy, I'll understand.
Necrocarlotta: ::him challenging her like that was a bit
much, she gave a grin, looked at the jag, then to him::
poking at my pride are we?
Necrocarlotta: ::She walked to the bars and knelt down
to look at the jaguar and she looked through the bard::
Necrocarlotta: *Bars*
Necrocarlotta: ::She thought for a moment, she looked
at the lovely animal and she then looked to him::
X SimonGrey X: *He watched her, smiling
broadly, letting go of her hand as she
walked to the bars. He chuckled softly and
then moved towards the entry gate. He
looked at cat* Grigore, go sit in your
corner. *the cat yowled at him pleading.*
Go or we leave... *he pretended to turn,
the great cat yowled again, then turned
like a reluctant child to move to the
furthest corner from the gate. There he
bayed pitifully as Riley moved to unlock
the gate. He glanced to Genna before he
opened it* You put that neck guard on,
stay close to me, and if anything goes
wrong, get out. You understand me?
Necrocarlotta: ::She looks to Riley, listens intently and
nods. Keeping everything in mind, from what he said she
seemed timid, but calmed herself so not to have any
doubt while near the creature::
Necrocarlotta: ::She looked to him:: I understand.
Necrocarlotta: ::She looked to the jag again, giving
some smiles to the beast when he gave that type of
display like a child would::
X SimonGrey X: *He opened the gate, and
Grigore kept his yowling up. Slowly moving
to lay down. His muscles twitched, but he
did not move from the corner, he just
yowled. He bayed pleadingly at Riley who
only gave him a stern eye. He watched
Genna moved into the enclosure, and shut
the gate behind her. He crouched down. He
held his left hand out, palm down. The
jaguars ears perked. Then he used his
right hand to motion the cat foward.
Grigore began to crawl towards them. The
eye contact between the two was intense.
Riley said not a word, only stared at the
great cat.*
Necrocarlotta: ::Seeing the intensity of both of their
stairs it seems she just stands almost as still as their stares
were. This odd feeling went through her body, but all that
she could do was just stand and looked at them. She did
her best to not think, not feel, just use her instincts just as
she does on the ranch with the horses that needed to be
round up and unruley::
Necrocarlotta: ::She accidently gave a shiver with a
breath that she exhaled. What was it that she learned
about cats and other animals?.... don't look into their
eyes or they attack, but don't back down... crap...
Alright, just stand and get out if need be. Keep the neck
guarded and close to him... She took more of a step to
him that was very slow and calculated::
Necrocarlotta: (step to riley that is)
Necrocarlotta: ::She looked at to riley then to the jag
again.::
X SimonGrey X: *the Jag's eyes flickered to
her, and took a quick step at her shiver.
Then something very odd happened. Riley
growled, low and husky, very realistic
sounding. The panther cringed and lay down
again, perfectly still, it's head between
those massive front paws. Riley's gaze
never moved from the great cat. He spoke
softly* He won't hurt you, do not fear
him. He's big and cuddly, but if you
cringe, he's going to get confused.. Just
come crouch by me... right next to me.. He
won't hurt you.. He knows better than
that...
Necrocarlotta: ::when he stepped to her shiver her face
became very deadpan with her nerves being shot with
curiosity and not exactly fear either. But when Riley
growled she shot him a look and leaned back a touch.
She looked at riley with a very strange curiosity. She
nodded to him explaining stuff and she looked to the jag.
Slightly tilted her head, looked back to riley and then
forced herself to come back to reality and nodded with a
slight smile, she looked back to the jag and croutched
with him. Observing::
X SimonGrey X: *His eyes never left that big
cat. She could hear something rumbling low
and softly. If she strained, it almost
sounded like a growlish purr that the TV
fabled these great cats to make. He
beckoned the cat closer and closer until
Grigore was but inches away from them. He
canted his head slightly and the cat did as
well, slowly rolling onto his side. It
breathed softly, that rumbling purrish
growl becoming quite audible as Riley moved
to stroke the large cats neck, drawing it's
head between his legs as he lowered to a
kneel. He motioned for her to move around
to the cat's midsection* That's right,
Grigore. Who's my big jungle house cat?
Yes, my sweet Grigore.
Necrocarlotta: ::She crept closer to the big animal, she
looked before she touched. It wasn't a timid thing on her
part, it was more assessing the situation and hearing
sounds that she didn't think people could make? Not
even she could when she took care of those kittens, she
tried but didn't work as she would have liked. She
reached her hand out to the midsection of the beast and
started petting with the grain of its fur. Noticing little
divets in its fur the slight shades of the dark coloring going
form black to dark black. her smile escaped her as she
petted the gorgeous jag. Her eyes filled with a delight and
basically trying to keep herself with calm emotions but
loved every moment of this::
Necrocarlotta: ::She spoke calmly and almost hypnotic,
slightly in a soothing motherly tone? maybe?:: "hello
Georgie.... ::she turned her head to Riley:: He seems
restless.... do you not see him often :: She chuckles:: He
seemed to pine for your affections when we came into
view...
X SimonGrey X: It is not me he pines for.
He misses my br.. *he stopped himself.* He
misses my best friend.. very much.. They
are kindred spirits.. Grigore is of my
friend's spirit animal. They are tied in a
phenominal way... *he caressed the big
cats fur, scritching softly here and there.
The panther turned to more a house cat than
before. He meowled softly.*
Necrocarlotta: ::Genna caught the Br. She assumed it
was someone that he got body shots from and just
looked at the cat with a smile::
She should come down more often then....
Necrocarlotta: Even Spiritual animals need their
humanoid totums around ::She chuckled at the term::
Necrocarlotta: ::She petted the jag almost in a
massaging motion, gliding her hand in fluid motions and
then the other hand followed to pet the animal::
X SimonGrey X: *he chuckled softly* No..
Not Bridget.. Imeant.. My brother. You'll
meet him eventually, I hope.. He is my best
friend.. my very best friend... *He
continued to scruff and scritch and scratch
the big panther who was melting in essence
between all the affection*
Necrocarlotta: ::She made a "aaaah" face and wondered
if it were true, but she looked at the animal and chucked::
Looks like he likes this.... perhaps my classes are finally
paid off...
Necrocarlotta: Where does your brother live? ::she
looks to him and then changes her massaging technique,
running her hands over his chest cavity and then to the
shoulderblades, stretching to get to them but she got
there. She smiled::
X SimonGrey X: *he continued to caress the
cat* Jackson Walker, CEO to Grey
consulting doesn't live anywhere really.
He's based out of Los Angeles, but he's a
jet setter. He flies all over the world
fixing computer systems for international
corporations. He's a genius.
Necrocarlotta: ::She nods, still looking at the cat:: Hmm
interesting...
Necrocarlotta: ::she smiles lightly, She looks to him::
How long have you known Georgie? ::She looked back
down to the big ol cat:: He been treating you well, hmm?
::she chuckled as she waited for riley's response::
X SimonGrey X: *He smiled, a distant look in
his eyes.* I've been here now for several
years, living in Las Vegas, but I really
started working with the cats a few years
ago. I really like them. They're...
kindred spirits. Very precious and dear to
me.
Necrocarlotta: I can see why... they are wonderous
creatures...
Necrocarlotta: ::She smiled warmly as she still pets the
jag::
Necrocarlotta: ::She chuckled:: You know, I used to
have this great dane and a siberian huskey, canadian grey
wolf mix for pets... and seeing Georgie like this it brings
me back to being in my room and being little, just curled
up sleeping in between them.... ::She slightly patted the
chest cavity of the cat in memory of it:: Darnit ::She
wrinkled her nose:: Gosh I miss that.... You're lucky to
be able to work with them.....
X SimonGrey X: *his voice was soft, tender*
You could work with them if you want,
Genna.. I have ways... I could pull
strings... If you really wanted to be a
part of all of this... You could..
Necrocarlotta: ::She looked to him and smiled like
"yeah, uh huh" but she gave a soft chuckle:: if you were
serious I might take you up on that... ::She smiled:: I don't
want you pulling strings for me that I couldn't get it on my
own... ::She then thought of her granmother and what she
said earier about pride::.....Recant, ::She looks to him and
smiles:: That would be awesome if you could....
X SimonGrey X: *He looked rather
disappointed as she refused him. He almost
pouted, then a broad grin washed over him
as she approved*
X SimonGrey X: Excellent.. I'll talk to
Sonya about getting you on as an assistant
keeper... Or at least to work in the
nursery.. We'll find you a way in..
Necrocarlotta: ::She almost giggled from his pout and
was about to say something but just shook her head.
Then he said that she could posssibly get her in, her smile
brightened:: Well, if it doesn't happened its cool, I had a
good time tonight... if it does then double cool...
Necrocarlotta: ::She seemed to have an understanding
way about her, either way it was a good night. she was
happy::
Necrocarlotta: ::when she looked down at the jag she
noticed her watch and her eyes checked the time:: well...
seems a bit late.. Should we get back?
X SimonGrey X: *he smiled* If you care to,
then let's go. I'll bring you back to meet
the royal white tigers another time..
We'll start our night earlier... *he looked
down to Grigore* You hear that? We're
going to visit the others.. Are you
jealous? *He yowled pitifully in response,
batting his paw at Riley's knee*
Necrocarlotta: ::She giggled:: Yeah, but we'll come back
to ya, don't worry. ::She patted his tummy and gave it a
little sratching::
X SimonGrey X: *Grigore yowled again, but
softer. He was a content kitty. Riley
motioned to her, telling her to stand.*
Alright big fella. You stay put or daddy
will be mad.
Necrocarlotta: ::She stood comfortably but not quickly,
careful not to peek the jas interest with her standing. She
looked at the Jag and was silently saying good night to it,
waited for riley::
Necrocarlotta: (jag lol, tired)
X SimonGrey X: (bout ready to call it a
night myself)
Necrocarlotta: (nod nod)
X SimonGrey X: *he stood and moved with her
back towards the gate. He kept his eyes on
the big cat as he ushered her out first,
then followed suit. He'd slipped a bit
when he'd growled to back the cat down, but
she didn't seem suspicious. If all went
well, she would know first hand why he'd
handled the beast so well. He locked the
enclosure and removed the neck guard from
her body to hang on the hook for the
habitat. He smiled warmly* Whenever
you're ready my dear..
Necrocarlotta: ::She smiled and gave a single nod::
Ready, this has been the most eventful evening I've had
for a while.... ::She gave a short chuckle then a look of
appreciation:: Thank you.
Necrocarlotta: ::She would walk with him back out and
then have him take her back to her car and will then go
home. Unless like hitting her over the head and drinking
her came into play J.k)
X SimonGrey X: (No, he's not embracing her
tonight)
X SimonGrey X: (i'm going to bed)
Necrocarlotta: ((yay! me too,))
X SimonGrey X: *he would take her out of the
mirage* you dont need to thank me. Just
come through for me.. Sparkle when they
call you for an interview... *he would
take her back to the club and her car.
Make sure she got in alright and was
driving off before he would leave*
X SimonGrey X: (done)
Necrocarlotta: (night!)
