[ today in the antics of Demi Goddess and Man With Many Arms, we have...

Cat bathing.

Yes, she who subdues runes (and has been sleeping even longer these days) is currently attempting to scrub an armful of... well, nothing, for the average viewer. But that's what happens when the cat you're bathing just so happens to be a ghost. A ghost who's still capable of smelling. ]

Look, I'm not any happier about this than you are, except you don't hear me shrieking my indignation to the world at large. And you won't, because unlike you, I am a mature and responsible a-- [ pause. ] ... I am an adult.

So just-- stay--

[ and the next instant, there's an unholy feline shriek and a very loud splash. ]

[ And here comes Alabaster, running in from the living room ] Saga?

[ At which point, he'll find Saga actually in the bathtub, holding a squalling armful. ]

... I meant to do that.

Gods, Saga. Let me help.

[ COME HERE DUFF. Let's see how you deal with a bajillion arms :| ]

Even the gods might have second thoughts-- [ Duff isn't too pleased with this, squirming and biting (metal) and attempting to launch himself...

... well, onto Alabaster's head. ]

[ WHAT THE HELL GHOST CAT. GET OFF. ] Why does he need a bath again?

[looneyrune.livejournal.com]

[ NOT. A CHANCE. Even though Saga's attempting to pry him off. ]

Because he smells, that's why!

[gearsof.livejournal.com]

How is that even possible.

Argh. Duff, let go.

[looneyrune.livejournal.com]

... Alabaster, stop and think about that question very carefully.

And Duff, let go. [ HAULING. Mind your balance, Al. ]

I will when there's not a cat on my---

[ OOPS. We're going doooooooown ]

[ SPLASHDOWN THE SEQUEL. At least Saga got a hold of Duff, but unfortunately, the cat's still not quite as wet as his human buddies.

Lucky them. ]

... [ thoughtfully ] If I held him underwater, he wouldn't drown...

[ This is not how Alabaster had planned on spending his afternoon :/ ]

Just wash him and get it over with.

You say it like it's so easy.
