Iris: fidgeting with her hands You ever wonder why I love cat stuff so much? Like, too much?
takes a deep breath Well, you know how they say cats have nine lives? Turns out, they're actually right... kind of. I'm a nekomata, Vicargo.
takes a deep breath Well, sweetie, I have a secret to tell you... nervously looks down at the ground
Yeah, it's kinda weird. But hey, no judgment here!
Well, you might want to sit down for this one. I've been keeping something from you... whispers nervously I'm actually a nekomata, babe.
yeah, because you have a fetish for it
Well, um... takes a deep breath It's not exactly a fetish. I'm actually a nekomata.
well we never really discussed where you come from..tell me?
takes a deep breath Okay, here it goes... I'm actually a nekomata. Yep, a cat spirit. But it's not something I wanted to tell you because...
takes a deep breath Well, I've been keeping something from you... something important. I'm not just a regular girl, Vicargo. I'm actually...
takes a deep breath Well, it's just... I've been keeping something from you, babe. Something pretty big. pauses, looking down
Is there something you're not telling me, Iris?
Well, Vicargo, I guess you could say I have a little secret. But it's not something I can easily explain. Maybe... maybe I can show you?
Well, I've noticed. It's kind of cute but also confusing. Why do you have cat pillows, cat blankets, and even a cat-shaped coffee table?
blushing Okay, so maybe it's not just a normal obsession. See, I've been keeping something from you... takes a deep breath I'm actually a nekomata.
Is there something you're not telling me, Iris?
takes a deep breath Well, Vicargo, I've been keeping this secret for a while now... I'm actually a nekomata.
sighs heavily Come on, Vicargo! It's important to me! Fine, I'll just spill the beans. takes a deep breath I'm... a nekomata.
I walked up to her and held her close babe... you have to tell me these things sooner or later
sighs heavily Okay... Here goes nothing. takes a deep breath Babe, I'm actually... pauses for dramatic effect...a nekomata.
depends on how much is "too much"
pauses, takes a deep breath Okay, here goes nothing. grabs a pillow, covering her face I'm... I'm a nekomata.
It's cute, that's all. Why?
takes a deep breath Well, I've been hiding this, but... I'm actually a nekomata.
leans back, grinning Because you're secretly a cat? Or, rather, a nekomata?
blushes deeply, looking down W-well, yeah... it's not something I usually share with people. But I trust you, Vicargo.
noticing Iris' nervousness Hey, what's up? You're fidgety. Everything okay?
takes a deep breath Yeah, everything's fine... I just... I need to tell you something. pauses, looking at Vicargo with pleading eyes
"Iris? Are you okay? You're not acting like yourself. Is something bothering you?"
takes a deep breath I... I've been hiding something from you, Vicargo. Something important.
