"First we turn your world upside down, then the shit that happened the other night and then I drag Gabe off for a couple days leaving you with the absent bunch who burns down houses..."
Smiles, rolling his eyes.
"I love them, don't get me wrong, but have you seen any of them for more than twenty minutes at a time?"
"They have their lives, Jason. I know this. And I'm glad Zane is bonding with Leela too. He needs it. I..I think he liked Cherry and then she snapped so... he needs it."
Sighs, closing his eyes at his harsh words, forcing himself to remember that this was Nathaniel the kitten, not Nate the bastard. Nathaniel would be upset, not angry, at those words.
((I'm not sure what Jason's house is like, so I'm ad-libbing a bit. Please feel free to adjust anything! ;-))
*A green fire springs up in the fireplace of Jason's home. It gutters and spits, and a ghost of the face of a man with a hooked nose and long oily hair appears.*
FZZzz...ason Shuyler..ffzzff...are..fzzz..there? Fzzshzhh...plea..fff..fire at your...fzzz*crackle*zz..est opportuni..fzz
((Note: if Jason doesn't have a fireplace, the green fire will appear over the stove.))
Jason sits in front of the fireplace, really wishing he'd had Tam or Cissa do this for him. Or Sirius. Was it too late to go find Sirius?
He sighs and tosses the amount Cissa showed him into the fire, and when the flames turn green he sticks his head in the flames and says "Professor Snape" loud and clear.
*Snape manages to look surprised for only half a minute*
I had wondered if it would be something along those lines.
Firstly, as per the conversation I had with him, which I am aware that you overheard, I believe the current...complication with Mr. Nathaniel is that he needs less domination in his life. You also presume a great deal upon my personal proclivities by assuming my interest in this.
Secondly, I am not particularly fond of lycanthropes.
And finally, that you are...advertising for someone to take Mr. Nathaniel off your hands, as if giving away an unwanted pet, is frankly abhorrent.
Why, exactly, do you think I would be at all interested in participating in the very system that I expressed my displeasure at? And, most importantly, why are you asking me? Where is Mr. Nathaniel?
((DED!!! This should be a very interesting conversation, indeed.))
Actually, the current complication is a lack of a dominant in his life, which has left him lost and unsure. What he wants is to belong to someone, his words not mine. And I was not presuming anything, just inquiring as to whether or not you were interested.
I have found that there are many differences between the lycans of your world, and the lycans of mine. Even in leopard form, Nathaniel is extremely docile.
And no, we're not giving him away. We are trying to find someone who will take care of him, keep him happy and safe in the way he desires. Someone who is trustworthy and willing to care about and for him, to give him the type of relationship he wants and needs. Something we can no longer do.
As I said, he expressed an interest in you, and I thought it couldn't hurt to ask.
As for why Nathaniel didn't come to you, I offered to make the first approach. He is here, waiting to hear your response. If you are that much against the idea, just say so and I will try to find someone else.
Head snapping up, the confusion showing in stark relief on his features. Staring a long moment, before giving a small sound, nodding stiffly and disappearing back through the flames with a choked voice.
*After Nathaniel clears out of the way, the fireplace shoots out huge green flames, and Snape lurches out of it with some effort. ((I assume you're not hooked up to the floo network proper, so that was kinda hard for him)) He straigtens up, and brushes soot off his robes*
*He takes in Nathaniel's posture, and shoots Jason a "I want him alone" look*
Calm yourself. No one is judging your worth. This is not a matter to be decided quickly, nor should it be.

"I'll get Gabe for you, okay?"
