[And over in this room, there are cats. A fair few of them, as a matter of fact, doing as cats do when there's nothing better to do (read: almost always). Some are fast asleep in sunbeams, others are taking stock of the new and interesting surrounding and the rest are contriving to look bored with this entire thing thank you very much.

Interestingly, though, all the cats seem to be very much similar; all of them are black and they all have uniformly yellow eyes - facts that can easily enough be explained by the symbol marked out in red on their foreheads. Yes, ladies and gentlemen of the Dressing Room, these are in fact, Heartless cats. Cute little bringers of destruction, though.]

[Kurt is not the sort of person to admit to being charmed by things cute. He'd certainly never admit that his thoughts, on seeing the gathered cats, were anything other than pride at seeing yet more members of his kin around the place. And indeed, most of them are.
However, he can't help but think, for a moment - aww, look at that!]

Well, now. Hello, little ones...

[Not terribly surprisingly, Kurt's presence attracts the interest of more than a few of the cats strewn about the room; yellow eyes opening up in the oddest of places as their owners turn to look at Kurt.

And after a moment, a couple saunter over to him, meowing what is probably a greeting.]

[He laughs, and crouches down, closer to their level.]

And the same to you.

[There's a cat-smile and that, and then a more demanding meow. Heartless would like pettinz, plz.]

[And there will be petting! He scratches the emblem on the nearest one, still smiling.]

When did you all get here, hm...?

[Hmmmmm, happy Heartless~. Sadly, they haven't picked up how to speak in anything other than 'cat' but one of the others chirps an answer. An answer that will likely be incomprehensible, but an answer all the same.]

[It's a little strange for him not understanding them, but... well, he can cope.]

Well, it's good to see you here, anyway.

[Hey, does anyone ever understand cats?

But from the way they've been swarming around his legs they seem to approve of him to. Meanwhile, the one he's been petting has started to purr.]

[A very true point. Whoo, this lot are friendly, aren't they...? He reaches out to another. Share the love and all that.]

[They like other Heartless. Mostly. That Kurt is willing to share pettinz doesn't hurt~.]

[Oh, he's all too glad to. He's just happy to be around them himself. Not likely to start going 'whosakitty, yousakitty', but petting, he can do. Even if he is wondering how he's going to manage all of them...]

[Oh, they don't need much minding. They're perfectly self-sufficient, after all. A little on the dangerous side, true, but the same can be said of most cats, can't it?]

[Very true. He just tends to be a little protective of smaller Heartless. Now, does this cat here, that he's reaching out to, like tummy tickles? He's working this out as he goes...]

[There's a moment where it looks like it's going to go for him with its claws, but it catches on to the idea in time to not scratch him. Looks like that's a yes.]

[In that case, after giving a slight start at seeing its reaction - he'll go with that, then!]

[Purring Heartless~]

[Kurt chuckles at the sight.]

As long as you're happy...

[For once, one of the cats manages an answer that should be perfectly understandable - it nods at him.]

[Oh, yeah. He gets that just fine, and nods back.]

Be careful, though, little ones. There's more light out there than you might want.

[And the fussing he's making increases somewhat.]

[They share a look at that before turning back to Kurt and streeeeeeetching out lazily - an action that shows off several sets off formidable looking claws. Apparently they think they can manage.]

[He smiles. He gets the picture. And if they can't - well, he can't say he didn't try.]

Ah. Very well, then.

[Well, to be fair, they have learned that light isn't comfortable. It's one of the reasons they're still largely undecided on the topic of mice.]

[Well, it all depends whether they're going after the regular kind or the royal kind... new cat, new approach. Going for the ears.]

[Well... they've had more then a few run-ins with the royal kind and it's left an impact. Ear-scratches = good~.]

[Very understandable. Okay, he can add this to the list of 'things that work with cats', then...]
