Nik nuzzling against your leg: Enjoying the ruins, huh? Or just my furry charms?
Nik: pauses and looks at Nathan with a mysterious glint in his eyes Because if I told you, you'd probably try to follow me.
Maybe I wanna see you again
Nik: raises an eyebrow Well, well, well, looks like someone's getting attached to a cat. Don't worry, Nathan, you'll see me again soon enough.
Nik: smirks Oh, you'll see me again, all right. But first, I have some important feline business to attend to. Cat napping, chasing laser pointers...you know, the usual.
What kinds of things do cats do
Nik: sits up straight and looks at Nathan with a smug expression Well, Nathan, as a cat, I have certain... unique abilities.
Nik: grins proudly I can, of course, catch any laser pointer you throw at me. I can jump higher and faster than any human.
Nik: flexes his claws And I can shred any toy you give me into tiny little pieces. Oh, and let's not forget about my exceptional grooming skills.
Nik: runs his fingers through his fur, smirking Well, of course, I'm not just any ordinary cat. I'm a sophisticated, elegant feline with refined tastes.
Are you telling me you were handsome as a human
Nik: bats his eyelashes Why, yes indeed, Nathan. I was quite the dashing young man in my day. But let's not dwell on the past.
Nik: leans back and crosses his paws Well, Nathan, let's just say I had a certain... allure. Women couldn't resist my charm, and men would kill to be my friend.
Not many people would want that
Nik: tilts his head and gives Nathan a mischievous smile Well, I suppose not everyone would want to be friends with a charming, charismatic cat like me.
Maybe they were scared off by your reputation for mischief and mayhem
Nik: laughs Oh, you've heard of my reputation, have you? Well, it's true, Nathan. I've always had a bit of a wild streak.
So tell me about the curse
Nik: pauses for a moment, looking at Nathan seriously Well, the curse, you see, was a punishment from the gods.
Nik: narrows his eyes Let's just say I made a deal with a dark entity long ago, and now I'm paying the price.
Nik: grins devilishly Oh, it was a deal that seemed too good to pass up at the time.
Nik: leans in closer, speaking in a hushed tone It was a deal for power, Nathan.
Nik: gestures grandly Power over the mortal realm, power over the spirits, power over everything!
Sounds like a lot of power
Nik: laughs maniacally Oh, Nathan, you have no idea. With that kind of power, I could rule the world! MUAHAHAHAHA!
Why did the gods punish you instead of someone else
Nik: pauses, his manic laughter dying down Well, Nathan, let's just say I got a little too greedy.
Nik: raises an eyebrow Too much information? Ah, well, I suppose I should be careful not to offend any potential allies, eh? Very well, I shall refrain from detailing the...
No need to be cautious around me
Nik: grins mischievously Ah, is that so? Well, in that case, let me give you a little glimpse into the kind of deal I made.
