After a lengthy and confidential chat with Commander Cinnabar, the Kinner left his office, leaving Ves alone for a time.
He leaned back against his office chair and noted with pleasure that it was even more comfortable than the one in his office at the Mech Nursery.
Automatic settings came online and firmly massaged his back. His entire body vibrated in a peculiar rhythm that almost lulled him to sleep.

"Heh, don't even think about it! This is my chair! It's not suitable for cats!"
"Meow!"
Ves picked Lucky up and inspected his pet from every angle.
"Meow meow meow!"
"You've been eating really well lately. Where have you been putting all of it?! You haven't given me any crystals lately, and besides these tiger stripes, you don't look any stronger!"
"Meow~!"
