The kitten on her shoulder is not going to be turned over to DEATH no matter how much he CAPSLOCKS EVERYTHING. /Another reference.

"Intending on keeping people safe doesn't mean it will happen." And from here she can't find out the whys and whos is regards to the death of her family.

"Supper," she says, not bothering to explain she's decided to call the kitten that, and not a suggestion, as she lets the thing try and catch her fingers.

[element_wizard]

Death wouldn't take him anyway. /yet another reference.

"No. If that were true, there would be a lot fewer injured small children in the world." Smile?

Supper meeps at this.

Alec raises his eyebrows briefly. "Are you Naming the poor thing?" That's definitely a capital there.

[templeandarch]

Well, Supper's nothing so special as a tube worm. /One more for good measure.

"Fewer dead children," briefly, she pauses, looking inward only to find a gaping hole, where a once solid Door would be.

Having a practical question to answer is easier. "I don't speak cat, so Supper will have to do and so Supper's true name can stay hidden."

[element_wizard]

Alec sticks his hands into his pockets and rocks on his heels briefly.

"I know someone who can speak cat. He's got a teleporting cat familiar." There's a sniffle and a sneeze. "I never bothered to learn to speak cat. And even if you knew cat, I doubt he'd tell you."

[templeandarch]

"Learning rat is much more useful," Door has to agree with that much. Who bothers learning the language of a major source of food. "I was lucky to have an aptitude for it."

The sneeze has her stepping a little back. "And if Supper wants to give a true name, that's fine but I won't force it." Even with Carabas, not his name, Door won't push.
