[He was so close! His hand spasming as his outstretched fingers brush the form, his feet already shifting to step back out of range--!!

And then Brocade's words close around him with the same sharp tenacity as the kitten that has appeared out of nowhere, its claws digging into the hem of his pants.

Maybe it's not too late. He tries to shift his leg, gently, to dislodge the shackle closing around it.]

While I'm... here...?

[He's caught. He's already caught, and he knows it.

The kitten on his leg, undaunted by his attempts to shake free, starts to climb.]

[He looks up, gaze palpably zooming in to Brocade's fluffy ears.

He looks down, gaze focusing on the swish of Brocade's fluffy tail.

He looks to the side, where Brocade's fingernails are just slightly inhumanly manicured.

He meets Brocade's eyes, pupils as narrow as his own.]

Yes. Without any doubt at all.

Then why did you ask?

[Submitting to his defeat, he reaches down, scruffing the miscreant climbing his pants.]

[It is, as always, remarkable how quickly his demeanour pivots from reluctant to engaged and agreeable.]

The curtains, cat stands, casing and a patch of wall, you said?
demonicdomestic: (just as we thought)

[While he's not undignified about it, securing the offered funds is his first and primary action as he steps into the shop, leaving the scruffed kitten in place of the bills.

As usual, he starts with the highly adorable sisal-wrapped novelty cat stands, kneeling down as he starts wrapping the tattered rope back into place.]

Has business been going well?
