[ The best part is: She has no ability to judge rather or not he's a good pet person. As long as it's fed and its needs met that's all that matters??? Which is a good thing, because it means that her judgement can go full force into his naming scheme: ]

Would you call a human "Human"?

[ A beat and added: ] They're not an it.

ARU I'M SORRY THIS GOT EATEN IN MY INBOX

[ Fair enough. ]

Him. And no.

[ But then again a cat isn't a human and he can't particularly imagine that the kitten will care whether or not he's given a name at the end of the day so long as he's given a good home. ]

Do you have suggestions?

[ Because he obviously doesn't have any. ]

Him.

[ She agrees without a fight. She's not even sure she was told the gender, but he got the point. "Him" not "it". ]

[ She raises a brow: ]

Does it look like I've ever named anything?

[diametrically]

[ His lips twitch slightly in amusement, getting a strange ghost of a feeling like this was the dynamic they'd had as gods. The familiarity, real or not, is nice. ]

Does naming something have a particular look?

[ What does someone who names something even look like?

The nameless kitten yawns before he settles quietly into Cassian's lap. As much as he'd caused him grief, Cassian can't help but quietly admit that he's cute. ]

He doesn't seem bothered without a name for now. Maybe I can think on it.

[ His eyes skip back towards her. ]

If you think of anything, let me know. I'm open to names.

[furibund]

Yes.

[ She says abruptly and quickly, but offers no further elaboration on. The "particular look," could easily be taken as someone not her. But... it's Himeka who flashes into her mind. Himeka and her easy, overflowing excitement for life. Certainly, someone like her would have named many things and insisted on it.

Or the Doctor. Hewas most insistent on the meaning behind a name. ]

[ She breathes as she stands to stretch. ]

It's a cat. Most likely you could just call it Dumb Cat and it would accept it as a name. Names are more for you than them.

[ He asks - again - or suggests she try and she glances at man and cat. Lips purses in consideration as if she might actually try to think of a name. All she can think of is how, once, she thought Milano was a stupid name for a ship and lacked intimidation. What kind of name did a cat even have? ]
