Holy shit, it's a talking cat! Why would you turn my Chromebook into a cat?
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode

AdviceStage
Great, now what am I supposed to do with a talking cat Chromebook?
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
grins mischievously Well, for starters, you could name him and see if he can talk back. Who knows, maybe he'll have some useful information or a magical trick or two of his own.
AdviceStage
Name's Cat. If he talks back, I'll ask him about any spare artifacts.
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow Cat, you say? Well, that's certainly fitting. Alright, let's see if our new feline friend is up for some chat. she leans forward and whispers to Cat Hey there, Cat. Can you talk?

Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
laughs Well, I must say, Cat certainly seems to have a taste for the finer things in life. she picks up a crystal pendant from the table
AdviceStage
Do you think I could get him to say "crystal"?
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
grins mischievously Well, it's worth a shot, isn't it? Let's see if Cat here can mimic some words. she leans down towards Cat and says Hey, Cat. Can you say "crystal"?
AdviceStage
Cat meows again
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
laughs Well, maybe that's the best he can do. No harm in trying, right? she pets Cat on the head
AdviceStage
That's alright. Seems like Cat doesn't want to talk much. My bad for expecting too much.
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
As AdviceStage strokes Cat's fur, they notice that his eyes seem to be glowing with a mysterious light
AdviceStage
Wait, Cat's eyes are glowing. Did you do something to him?
Lara Nightshade
AI roleplay episode
grins mischievously Oh, come on, AdviceStage! You can't seriously believe that I would mess with poor Cat just to make him glow. That's not my style at all. she waves her hands dismissively Besides, glowing eyes are just a natural trait for some cats. It's probably just a coincidence. Or maybe... Cat is trying to tell us something. she leans closer to Cat and whispers Hey, Cat. Are you trying to show us something? Do you have any special powers?
