[The journal turns on with a little crash, revealing... the ceiling. Yes, very exciting.]

Stop knocking things over!

[A small, furry black face saunters over to the journal, sniffing curiously. It meows. And then, turning, flops over right on top of it, covering the camera.]

Hey, cat, get off that, it's not your damn bed.

[A small trill, and the fuzzy thing rolls over, revealing a mildly irritated redhead.]

...What the hell? You actually turned it on? Hey, dreck, the cat's from the Dawn Age.

[His tone is even mildly amused for that one. He brushes the kitten off the journal, picking it up and half-closing it. Before it shuts, he reconsiders, then grabs the pen and scribbles out a note.]

[Written / Filtered to Dist]

I need to talk to you.

[There, that's good enough. Back to the whiny, needy little monstrosity who has moved on to making his own water dish into a cat bath. Surprise! Luke brought home a kitten for his very disgruntled original. What a wise decision this was, eh.]

Oh, Noishe is the name of this creature that I've traveled with for a period of time. His race was the first to be born in my world and for his entire life he changes form until he reaches the final stage of becoming a human that fights evil.

...An animal that turns into a human? [What the hell, that's a strange world.]

Yes. I know it sounds strange, but it's true. Unfortunately, protozoans aren't very common. So even people from my world would be as surprised as you are when they hear about them.

So it wouldn't really count as a pet, then.

[ She lets out a meek laugh. ]

You're right about that. As a matter of fact, it doesn't please Noishe when you call him a pet.

It's strange to call an animal that can talk a "pet", anyway. It's not like anyone owns them when they have the free will and ability to refuse.

Actually, Noishe can't talk. Though if you listen to him very carefully, you might be able to understand him. My traveling companions and I are able to do that. Though I will mention that my fiance had some trouble at first, but he eventually got the hang of it. It was rather comical watching him get so frustrated.

How do you understand an animal that can't talk? [The concept, it makes no sense- ohwait, he does know Mewtwo.] Telepathy?

I'm not quite sure how to explain. Though I wouldn't call it telepathy. His mouth is moving when he speaks.

Wh- make up your mind! Does he talk or not?

[He's so confused.]

Well, it's more like he whines. Kind of like how a dog barks but in this case whining.

So, animal sounds that people can sometimes understand?

[Yep, definitely weird.]

Uh, yes. That's pretty much it.

[ Even to her it doesn't make much sense. ]

Any reason why some people can understand better than others?

I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that. Though I think you might be able to understand him if you try.

Why would you think that?

You just seem to be that kind of person who'll be able to understand Noishe.

[H... he can't see it...]

If you say so.
