Great (Open)

[Dex]

Dex flicked his ear with annoyance as he idly wandered the streets. He had clawed the furniture again and his owners had kicked him out of the house. "Great. Now I have to wonder about looking for food." He grumbled to himself, "At least they will notice their mistake when I throw up all over their new carpet after eating contaminated grub." He smiled at the thought of that. It would work perfectly as payback for what they had done.

The young kittypet lifted a paw and looked at the pad. There was a small graze from where he had been thrown out through the back door as if he was flying. Which, just to clarify, he would hate as he didn't want to be mistaken for a tasty bird.

He began to walk forwards, towards the small park where the twoleg kits played.

Emerald had seated herself upon the lowest branch of one of the park's trees, a content smile on her face. The housecat loved to roam around the town, meeting new cats and being fed by the nice Twolegs, as some cats called them. And today, as she peered down below at the sidewalk, there existed one cat she had yet to meet. And with a curious expression, Emerald hopped down the tree and trotted over. "Hi there!" she meowed when she grew near. The tortoiseshell cat hoped this tom was friendly as well.

[Dex]

"Hello." Dex looked at the tortoiseshell she who had just trotted in his direction and spoke to him.

"Do your owners know you're out this far?" Dex teased, smirking at the words he had just uttered. He awaited Emerald's reaction with a smile, half friendly yet also half mischevious.

"The name's Dex." The young tom purred, sitting down as he stared forwards.

Emerald just shrugged, "Well, they know I'm not home. And that's about all they'll ever know." she replied, and then tilted her head at the housecat name. Dex, she thought, glancing at his nametag. Dexter, in actuality. Though, Dex is easier.

She smiled back and took a seat herself. "My name is Emerald. Though, I do go by the name of Emmy." she purred.

[Dex]

"Well, Emmy." Dex spoke, with a lick of his lips, "What you doing around here? Lot of dogs, eat a cat like you up in one bite."

He was trying to scare he'd but in a more friendly way rather than insulting.

Emerald gave a quick yawn, as if the thought didn't bother her. "Not that I'll run into any of those type of dogs." she replied, and then gave a slight puzzled look towards the housecat. "So, what would you be doing out here? Don't your housefolk worry about you?"

[Dex]

"Nah. He don't really care 'bout me. He only cares for me because I keep the rats away." He stated. His life was so crummy. All he did was kill rats and mice for an ugly shelter.

"Well, that sucks." Emerald mused, giving her tail a twitch. She made a mental note to keep an eye out for a mean Twoleg tom. "Why not just run away and find different housefolk to live with? There's plenty around that would take a cat like you. All you do is sit at their door and meow sweetly, not to mention look cute, which wouldn't be too hard for you."

[Dex]

"Because Darren would just come and find me and kill me. Literally. Bullet straight through the head and used as hunting bait." Dex continued, "And not to mention Sheila. She'd be heartbroken if I ran off. Besides cute is the last thing I want to be."

"Fine, but if your going for smart or brave, staying there isn't either." Emerald muttered in response. Why complain if you weren't going to do anything about it?
