GingerSpice's POV

I examined the bags for a second just to see what was there. And after I made sure everything was there I quickly rushed to my and Necromancer's room. Yay! I finally get to help with something. Maybe I won't be as useless as always.. I thought hopefully, just don't get in the way like you always do- and don't screw anything up! yelled at myself hoping to be helpful today. Don't be a burden. I thought repeating the same thing I always do. That should have been my catchphrase. I took a deep breath and smiled happily,

"Hey, I got your stuff." I beamed as I came in, he was sitting on his own bed with Reaper adjacent on mine. He looked up confused and a bit annoyed,

"Finally, took you long enough." He criticized,

"I know I was just looking at them. I saw something interesting in there." I explained as I pulled out a stick with a shiny crinkly ball tethered to the end of it by a long string,

"That's a cat toy, have you ever had a cat before?" He asked, I shook my head no. He seemed to be vaguely interested,

"Well I can show you how to play with him." He suggested, I nodded excitedly,

"Sure!" I agreed and walked over to him. Oooo so he is going to show me how to play with Reaper? I thought cats where lazy? I wondered as I handed him the stick thingy. He took it and showed it to Reaper for a second, the cat sniffed it and looked up at him,

"Okay so he doesn't seem to have played with these before. But cats have a natural instinct to attack anything that moves. So if I put it here and slowly drag it.." he explained as he put the ball on the bed and began slowly dragging it along, Reaper watched it and reared up. He soon pounced on it and attacked it with his paws,

"Wow! You sure do know a lot about cats. And you have quite the soft spot for them." I said slightly hesitating on the last part. He looked at me surprisingly looking..happy?

"Yeah, I like cats a lot. You want to play with him?" He asked and I nodded grabbing the toy with my hand. Wow he seems happy for once. I wasn't very much of a burden. No he just likes the cat..it's not you. Stop getting excited over nothing, he won't be your friend anymore. I yelled at myself. I quickly snapped out of my thoughts to do what Necromancer did. I slowly dragged it across and watched as he reared up again to get it. I moved it around a bit to give more of a fight, he seemed to like that. At one point he sat up on his hind legs to get it when it was in the air. I giggled at that,

"Looks like you're a natural." He complemented, he never complements me so I felt really warm inside. I can't believe he complemented me! That's so nice. I smiled and blushed slightly,

"Awe thanks." I appreciated and hummed for a brief second, as he soon turned his attention to the bags,

"You can play with him to keep him entertained." He recommended, I nodded and continued to move the ball around and watch him attack it. After a little while Reaper seemed to tire out or at least was done with playing. I sat next to him and started petting him. I saw him turn his gaze to Necromancer,

"Yeah, you're owner is getting stuff all set up for you. You're going to be so spoiled aren't you? Awe yes you are." I baby talked him as I scratched the sides of his face. He must have liked it because he purred. He laid down halfway on me,

"Necromancer, you're cat is adorable." I said happy that Reaper seemed to like me. He turned around to look,

"Oh, it looks like he likes you a lot." He said briefly and began fiddling around with something,
