[ It only takes about a second for Cassian to clue in to what the cat's name actually is. Ah. He sees the pursed lips on the dark-haired woman that he recognizes now from the conclave meeting — Zoya. It's difficult for him to say if she thinks it's silly for the girl to have named her pet as such, but being appraised by the little girl to see if he’s somehow worthy of retrieving Cat brings about an amusement in his eyes that cuts through some of the tension in his body like a knife.
He doesn’t let that show though, his voice becoming serious after being tasked with this Very Important Mission. ]
I appreciate the warning.
[ Of course, he’s already had a run in with a practically feral space raccoon (not Rocket) but this time there’s no fish or treats to coax Cat from their hiding spot. Cassian can’t help but silently hope that it isn’t actually anything but a cat under the bed. He’d like to avoid having his face clawed or bitten off.
Aware that time is still of the essence he moves quickly towards the debris, peering into the pockets of space between broken furniture. Something with fur flinches beneath them and glowing orbs swivel up to look at him. It’s hard to tell but — ]
Cat might be stuck. [ His gaze moves back to the little girl. ] Can I try and pick him up?
