Hand outstretched, Nell narrowed her gaze when a Felyne rapped at her knuckles.

“Mreow meow,” the apron clad Felyne calmly but firmly stated. Sporting dark brown mittens, and socks, the Siamese colored cat stood sentry before the Canteen's kitchens.

The Nargacuga, undeterred, hungrily eyed the rows of burnt black clay ovens broken up by flour and spice caked counters. Pots and pans aplenty, boiling and bubbling over with the bounty of the earth and sea alike, sat perched atop the open flames.

A low and pensive growl rumbled within the Wyvern's throat. Sniffing and snuffing at the air, saliva streaming down the sides of her maw, Nell slurped her beaked lips. Nudging Taras aside, and leaning over the counter, the Nargacuga guided her black scaled fingers towards-

FWACK

“Maow. Mjau.” the Felyne repeated with marked annoyance as they whacked at Nell's clawed digits with a spatula.

Brows furrowed the bat cat's eyes darted between the Felyne and the food choked counters. Bowls caked over with leftover batter. Congealed oils pooling along the bottoms of pots. Piles of discarded egg shells sprinkled with sliced off strips of fat.

Pupils dilating into saucers the Nargacuga, yet again, lurched at the all too appealing appetizers.

WHACK

“Meow mow mew mrrp mau mjeow mrow mreeerp?!” the Siamese shouted with a shake of their fuzzy fists.
