You know that feeling when you just can't win a good negotiation? That's me right now. Liki refilled the bowls with fruit, but held purple lemons.

One part of me was worried that this was a trap, due to lack of dancing. The other part of me was desperate, because most of us can't resist these. God damnit mind... make your decision!

After what felt like hours, I quietly moved closer to Liki. My heart was racing like a monitor on steroids, which with imagination is not a good sign. As my body exited the safety of the cage, I web climbed up to him for the sake of thinking before shaking.

It must have been weird for him to feel, because I felt a gross flinch from his radiated spaghetti skin. Then again, this is a faster way of transportation without nervously stretching myself. This scheme only took about ten seconds, compared to the 20+ yesterday.

Once I got to the top, my body decided to stop working. If the past of procrastination was upon me then so be it. I'm going to try not to fall under that spell again when I was in school!

I quickly drained the lemons and scampered back down, but something outside caught my attention before I could go back in my cage. Craning myself to the window, I felt myself light up and darken at the same time.

It was raining outside...

Even more, it was just a simple drizzle. I felt joy because of this weather, but sadness because I couldn't go outside. If I can talk to Seika I can talk to Lucy... right? Midnight managed to let us all know about the electrical mind link... so I should be able to do the same thing...

"Lucy?" I called, shifting into flying form.

Something on the other side sent shock and relief, encouraging me to dart outside. The rain beckoned me to dance with tiny droplets and breezy winds.

Instead I slammed into the window blocking the two worlds apart. Lucy's voice came into my head. "Katy?!? Where are you?! We can't find you anywhere in the park!"

"I'm recovering from being high... I booked a spaghetti hotel somewhere in the city. What's more is that it was free!" I replied, sending mixed emotions of happiness and anxiety.

"How did you get high..?"

"Tried something new, and then ate too much of it."

Lucy started fading out, her voice becoming glitchy. "Oh shoot..,..., I have to go see you soon bye..."

Her link came to a stop, and I slid off the window. I was so close to the rain! It's what drives us to sing our hearts out in this tropical environment! I pawed at the window, watching in jealousy as the drizzle lightly splashed against the clear glass.

A wave of morose feelings hit me. I hummed sadly, imagining low choirs from school that sung during the passing of our favorite teacher. He wasn't in my schedule, but I had heard that he was an amazing science teacher. Mr. Picard is what his name was.

I continued to hum, escalating and dropping my notes at an even rhythm.

The song faded out, and the sunlight peaked through from the drizzle. I turned around to see Liki recording my melancholy, with a device similar to the camera. Resisting the urge to shake my head, I fluttered towards the cage and sat on top of it.

Singing made me feel better, but I missed getting wet. Liki chimed next to me. "Posting it now! Hope you don't mind... whatever your name is slime cat..."

"It's Katy, silly." I responded, turning my head away. "But you can't understand me anyway so..." I proceeded to make random noises as he got up.

Liki went back to the hidden halls, but curiosity got the better of me. I took off from the glass cage and silently followed him. His shadow was in another room, moving something similar to a door and taking out something small, but startlingly recognizable.

I quietly made my way inside, but the sight of what he held made me make excited chattery noises. It was a perfectly ripe purple lemon, uncut and teeming with its lovely aroma. Liki chuckled and slightly turned to me, only to go to a cutting board.

He took the fruit and diced it up with the Kymari version of a knife. I landed to the side of him, shifting into climbing form. He didn't respond with anything, not even a facial expression. Maybe he finally got the hang of his thing. It reminds me of a mental disability, like autism, but this is more of something that makes a Kymari's emotions harder to hide.

Anyways, he took the pile of diced lemons and went back to the living room. A feeling of friskiness came upon me, which lead to me following him on the ceiling. Being upside down was pretty weird, but it was cool at the same time!

Liki went over to the center table, and sat in one of the chairs. He slowly revealed the purple lemons. I didn't hesitate to drop down on his spaghetti hair, which made him chuckle once again. They like to express happiness, that's for sure, but what about sadness or anger? Surely you can do those to right?

I kneaded the thick strands of black hair, shifting into simple form. "I got to take it to you, as your skills in temporally deceiving me is pretty good. Though maybe since I'm feeling better you can let me go?"

He replied calmly, bringing his hand up a little bit. "I don't have a clue what you're saying, but finally I've decided a name for you. Hint it's not Heather."

I took one of the cubes, extracting all it's flavor. Liki sighed whimsically. "Your name shall be Peachy, like the fruits that are native to here. Your colors make it reasonable, anyway."

"Funny you say that, I wore my peach pjs on the day I became a slime cat." I responded, slowly easing into spread form.

"Still don't understand your chatter Peachy." He said, lightly rubbing my forehead.

It felt good, but I missed the outside, and oddly enough I also liked being here with him. Two contrasting things that collide with each other and try to make me choose a side. Either be outside with the others, or get this awesome service from a random alien.

I'm pretty sure everyone that's a slime cat would have chosen the first option.

I felt myself internally grin. My melting state would be going over his face! Lets see how well he can hide those emotions now~

Do you have any suggestions?
