Closed Summer Camp - Pet Fair

Said | Thought

Zach chuckled when he saw Oliver's owl nipped his owner's hand. It seemed that the owl understood what he just said. Oliver then told him that the suit was made by hy his father. "He's done a great job. The suit really suits your owl." Zach wondered if Zephyr would want to wear clothes. But after seeing him, he dismissed the thought. Zephyr definitely would tear the clothes even before he wore them.

"Oh! This is Zephyr. He's a barred owl.," he said while petting Zephyr's head. "What is this gentleman's name?" Zach asked Oliver. Then he immediately added, "Uh.. gentle owl," while scratching the back of his head. Oliver's owl seemed so nice and calm, unlike Zephyr. Maybe it happened because Zach never cared to teach him some tricks. He often let him hunt near the Great Lake in his free time before dinner. He was tame but also wild at the same time.

Suddenly Zephyr turned his head and began to spread his wings. Zach became panicked and tried to calm Zephyr. "Zephyr! Behave yourself!" His hand tried to hold his pet owl. He actually expected this but he kept going because he thought it might help him to teach Zephyr about self-control. "Here's the treat." Zach took some treats inside his pocket and handed them to Zephyr. His pet owl saw them became calm then are them. "I-I'm sorry. Zephyr is still taught to control himself." Zach's cheeks became redden because of embarrassment.

Well, Piérre seemed to be gathering a bit of an entourage. Very very vaguely did the boy remember the Gryffindor boy in his year who approached with a lovely looking orange lizard. Piérre wasn't a total fan of lizards per say (they were animals that required a bit more in-depth care than a cat, Piérre believed) but he did like watching them and seeing how the cold-blooded animals seemed to observe their world and scuttle here and there in the pursuit to get to wherever it was they were trying to get to. He couldn't help but hide a snort with a hand as the lizard nipped at the thick-accented boy's ear. "Twitchy indeed! Fits his name. This is Figaro!" He replied excitedly to the question. Piérre had a tendency to gush over his familiar; it took everything in his power to prevent himself from immediately entering into a diatribe about how amazing and smart and what a good boy his feline was.

When Figaro noticed attention being put on him, the tip of his tail flicked back and forth and he lazily got to his feet so that he could sniff Zykeal's shoes. Naturally, he was collecting the boy's scent to be retained for letter. For some reason Piérre seemed to have need of the cat's retention for smells so that tracking purposes became easier. For whatever reason, Figaro didn't mind; it was in the nature of the cat to be curious for himself, after all. Purring quietly as he rubbed for a moment on the kid's shins, Figaro would twine between Zykeal's legs briefly before returning to Piérre's side just as the boy was given a tiny-beaded bracelet by Hiro for the purposes of his own scent-tracking. "Aw Figgy! You're so sweet. He must like you." He said brightly to the lizard boy.

"Depends on the cat, just like it depends on the person. You're lucky you're on Figaro's good side on your first meeting." Piérre teased back at Hiro. "One time he took a chunk out of someone's ear because he thought I was being threatened!"

Quite a... cheerful way to talk considering the implications of the sentence spoken. The truthfulness of it would only be up to the person listening to determine.

"Yeah, I think this just might work. Just wait one second. Figaro," The boy commanded his feline to pay attention with the preparatory command. "ricordare. Record/note" The boy indicated to the bracelet, which Figaro tentatively sniffed, then indicated to the blonde boy before them both and repeated the command with the addition of the assigned nickname; "Tone." In response, after sniffing and licking his nose with a small shake of his head, Figaro sat down and closed his eyes, purring deeply again.

This seemed enough to content Piérre, and he glanced up at Tone. "I've been named a lot of things. Generally, though, people call me Piérre." A small smile before he nodded to the area behind Hiro. Scooping up Figaro in both his arms and ensuring that the cat's full attention was on him and only him alone, Piérre affirmed that he and Figaro were ready to attempt the trick. "You can go where you like, though for the sake of simplicity sticking nearby'll make it easier for Figgy to find you." He affirmed. "You better go hide right now, though. I can't keep him occupied forever!"

As Hiro (hopefully) tried to pick a spot to hide so that Figaro could show off his skills, Piérre returned his attention to the lizard-bearing boy again. Piérre tipped his head. He really did want to remember who this person was and how he knew him... it did seem very familiar. "So how about you? How are you doing?" He tried to remember as much as he could... though for some reason nothing was really coming to him. "Pshhhhhhhhhhhh... uh... 20... 2020, was it? Summer camp... yeah! Back when Rafa fought Aurelia in the tent!" The boy remembered only that very little. Man, they had both grown up... or at least... maybe it was only this boy that had and not necessarily Piérre himself... The boy shook his head incredulously. "Man I have not seen you in literal years. I don't even remember your name!" Piérre thought about what he had just said. "I mean... uh... I don't think we ever really got to know one another back then..."

Nice save, kiddo.

Glancing to see if Hiro had finally concealed himself, Piérre let Figaro jump from his arms before presenting the foreign boy's bracelet to the feline. Letting his cat get the scent once more to reinforce the previous smell, Piérre gave the preparatory command and then the command itself. "Figaro, scrutare: Tone. Search/Find: Tone" As he said this, he lightly tied the bracelet to the cat's collar, both so that Figaro would deliver it back to Tone, but also so that he would constantly have Tone's scent in his nose; the latter being a factor that would make it slightly easier to keep the scent and to detect it as the feline would make to try to locate the kid.

No sooner had Piérre's hands left Figaro after securing the bracelet did Figaro perform a full body shake and lick his chops once. After blinking, the feline began to whiff the air and trotted back and forth for a moment, black-rimmed ears flicking in the air to provide additional aural information. Piérre smiled as he watched his cat performing his tracking trick. It was a trick that he had worked hard to reinforce in Figaro... though admittedly this was only the first or second time that he would be requesting his cat to find the scent and locate a person that he had only just met hardly a minute ago...

Well... here was to hoping that the training would pay off.

Piérre glanced to Twitchy again. "C-could I... um feed him? He's just... he's really cute." The boy confessed. He had a thing for creepy-crawlies, and the fact that Twitchy was a pet did nothing to change that. Lizards were cool, after all.

Figaro the Silver Bengal: 200/200

OPEN TO INTERACTION

aries was excited, since the morning she woke up to right now, and it was happening. a breezy february day, perfectly cool for a pet fair! she cuddled cliché close to her. petting the sweet angelic bunny, she walked over to two girls. one she had met before, and another puffie.

both girls had a cat, and they were both adorable. reese cleared her throat and muttered what are their names? excitedly. she put cliché down and smiled. just looking at that puddle of dreaminess was adorable. her eyes were glimmering as she turned to face the girls. hera? ITS YOU! she chattered. reese grinned at her.

but that quickly turned into a frown as she discovered that cliché was missing. CLICHÉ!!! WHERE ARE YOU? she yelled glancing at her surroundings to find her. it must just be hide and seek, we play that all the time. she thought, calming her erupting negative thoughts down.

would yall like to play too? and your pets i mean she asked hera and the other puffie. this would be so fun, which was the whole reason she came here. she reached down to pet the kittens, smiling.

While Hera was watching her cat, when she heard the voice of the girl who came to them, she started talking without looking at her. She said, pointing to the curvy gray cat.

"This is my cat. Her name is Kai and she is 4 years old"

At this moment, she realized that this voice sounded familiar. Then she realized it was Aries, whom she had met before. Her cat moved towards the new rabbit and first sniffed and then rubbed as Minx did. Then she turned to the toys again and started playing.

"Hey Aries. It's so nice to see you again. How are you?"

Meanwhile, when she noticed that Aries' rabbit disappeared in an instant, she got stressed like E and looked around, but when she saw that Aries was calm, she realized that her rabbit did this all the time.

"The more furry friends the better."

Kai must have immediately understood Aries' move because she stuck her head towards her and after crawling around her slightly, she went to her playmate, Minx. When she noticed Cliché's hiding place, she leaned towards it slightly and tried to reach out her paw and touch it, without taking out her claws, in order to take it out.

"Looks like the cats found the rabbit's Cliché."

After the boy Tone had been given a few minutes to pick a spot to hide, Piérre finally stroked Figaro's head with a smile and presented the bracelet to him. "Alright Figgy! You're the best at doing this out of every other kind of pet I've met so far! You're such a good boy and you're gonna do great, okay?" Words of encouragement for the bestest of boys, of course. Green eyes flicked about; he was sort of looking for Tone as well, to be honest... He was curious if he would be able to spot the kid even without the use of his cat's clever nose.

Sniffing a bit after realizing that such an ambition was likely mostly moot, Piérre shrugged and waved the bracelet to Figaro again. "Got the scent, buddy? Okay..." He loosely tied the bracelet to Figaro's collar around the small messenger bottle that was attached there. In such a condition it would serve the dual purpose of being able to be delivered to the boy in question as well as offering a consistent scent for the feline to follow and stay in his delicate and sensitive nose. "Figaro, Scrutare; Tone. Find; Tone" He commanded the creature with a quiet yet firm intonation in his native tongue. This was the nature of his cat's training, of course; to be in a language special to him and few others so that Figaro wouldn't be easily confused by common vernacular in English or the like. Even the command words that he used were not common ones in Italian, even better for the 'unusual' invocation of it and more easy for the feline to understand and act upon.

Taking a second to groom himself, Figaro's black-tipped ears flicked back and forth in tandem with his long and sleek silvery tail. Minty eyes blinking with a deep and cracking purr deep in his throat, Figaro shoot himself out once before trotting back and forth with his nose in the air. Tail continuing to flick back and forth for a few minutes longer, Figaro paced back and forth and licked his chops ever so slightly. There were a lot of smells in the air, enough smells that it would easily distract even the most dedicated scent hound. The smell of many cat treats in particular, combined with owls that had the smell of fowl upon them were doing more than enough to cause Figaro to drift back and forth even with the command of Piérre in mind.

It would take a while, perhaps a bit awkwardly long after Piérre had bragged so much about the talents of his beloved animal, but eventually Figaro's nose would bump against Tone with a cracked "M-m-maaroww!" as the tip of the tail flicked slightly faster with the anticipation of having found the thing that matched scents with the bracelet tied onto his collar. Intelligent minty eyes blinked slowly once again, the feline licking his whiskers once more as if waiting for Tone to act. Sitting lightly and curling his tail over his paws, Figaro appeared to puff his chest ever so slightly, as if showing off the bracelet that was tied to his collar.

This was his delivery, after all. And naturally he expected rewards... if they were willing to be given, of course.

Piérre came up alongside Figaro, smiling down at his familiar. "He's... he's a good boy. Must've gotten distracted by the smells and things. Definitely has a better sense of smell than either of us, I would think." He said softly, scratching Figaro behind the ears just the way he knew that he liked it. "Reliable as ever, though. Bravo, Figaro! Good job, Figaro!" He praised his familiar. "Bravo!"

Piérre fixed Tone with the same look as Figaro had given him, that sort of sideways and yet piercing gaze that indicated a hybridized sense of disinterest and deadly curiosity. "Who knows, maybe he'll be able to find you again. Faster, next time." He said softly before smiling lightly. "More reliable than owl post in close vicinity, and much more covert."

After letting Tone collect his things again, Piérre glanced around once again, as if the boy were somehow suspicious of his immediate surroundings and was seeing something that was just out of sight and out of mind. Those emerald eyes narrowed and Piérre hugged Figaro ever so slightly closer. "Very useful." He murmured, his brows creasing ever so slightly as his pointed ears piqued ever so slightly in attentiveness. The eyes flicked again, focused on something over Tone's shoulder. "Weird." He murmured again.

If Tone turned away to look after where Piérre had looked over his shoulder at, when he turned back again the boy would have suddenly vanished with nothing but a small cat treat where he had once been. If Piérre had not managed to distract the boy with the cheap ruse, he would have backed away slowly with a strange and almost Cheshire smile. "It was nice to meet you. I have to go now..." The green eyes glittered one more time, the silver cat in arms purring heartily and rubbing against Piérre's cheek and inducing a bright smile lacking the former curiosity to it before the boy turned away and then made a quick, quiet, yet swift exit. "But I get the feeling we'll meet again. Things tend to be funny like that, I think. Perhaps we've met before... we just haven't realized it yet. And if so; it's been nice to meet you again. Byebye."
