marchens[The video flickers on projecting a view of the ceiling, which is the first obvious sign that this recording is accidental. After a moment, a thunk is heard as the ceiling starts to spin, and then a leg and some fabric of a dress can be seen. It seems the device was kicked.]
Hamlet…?
[The body moves and Estelle comes into view as she is looking under a couch.]
Kitties?
[It seems she is looking for some animals…]
Where are you? Why haven’t I seen you? [Then there’s a small pause as her voice can be softly heard as she‘s talking to herself.] I don‘t suppose I was lied to about having animals here, was I? I…I haven‘t seen them.
[No, Estelle. Animals just hate you. And then she notices her device and picks it up as she turns it off.]
((ooc: Estelle is looking for the pets that she heard reside at the beach house. Open to action.))

Date: 2011-09-30 03:36 pm (UTC)Did you lose something?
[The cat hair all over Rita's clothing is...probably obvious.]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 03:39 pm (UTC)Yuri told me we have pets, but I haven’t seen them.
[And she sees the cat hair all over Rita’s clothing, which pretty much means that said pets do exist.]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 06:06 pm (UTC)[She can't hide her confusion, tilting her head at her friend.]
You've almost been here for a month, and you haven't seen them once?
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 06:30 pm (UTC)No, I haven't.
[They're doing a very good job at avoiding her...in fact, if never mentioned, she probably would still never know about them.]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 06:48 pm (UTC)[Which she doesn't really mind when it's the cats, but that dog...]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 07:53 pm (UTC)I...I honestly don't know.
[Why do animals not like her?!]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:14 pm (UTC)[ Tyr doesn't know how that's possible, but that's what it sounds like. ]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:20 pm (UTC)[Only because she was told this. Otherwise, she would have never known.]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:23 pm (UTC)Maybe you just need to look around the house more... Like around the top floor. [ Like the study. ]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:29 pm (UTC)I will keep looking for them!
[...but she will never give up!]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:46 pm (UTC)—Okay. Good luck... You could ask Yuri or Rita, too...
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:48 pm (UTC)I suppose if one of them called the animals out, I may finally get to see them...
[And if she tried, they'd keep hiding.]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:51 pm (UTC)Yeah... Animals can be worried about people they've never seen before...
[ But saying that, it doesn't make sense. Even if she hadn't been there before, they should be used to her presence by now. ]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 10:55 pm (UTC)Well, when put that way...
[But she's been there for nearly a month now!!!!]
...still, I would think by searching for them I would have found them by now.
[;.;]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 11:06 pm (UTC)I guess it's just weird luck...
You could try feeding them or something.
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 11:07 pm (UTC)[Watch her eat them instead...]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 11:10 pm (UTC)... Maybe...
[ Actually, he can't even guess why she can't find them when Tyr's probably nearly tripped over a cat before... ]
Maybe it's a game to them?
[ Best he has. ]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 11:15 pm (UTC)[She's never read about animals behaving like that, but perhaps that is a valid reason.
Maybe...
Just maybe...
Her optimistic outlook on life will allow her to believe that temporarily.]
Maybe I could read up on that...
[Or maybe she should just accept that 'reasoning' and pretend that it really all is a game.]
action~
Date: 2011-09-30 11:30 pm (UTC)[Sob Estelle and her gourmet tastes...]
video;
Date: 2011-09-30 11:48 pm (UTC)[ See? It makes sense.
Sort of. ]
You could probably train them to do something else when you find them...
action~
Date: 2011-10-01 01:21 am (UTC)[She won't try to think about it failing. She won't, she won't, she won't!
And if it does fail...maybe cat food has a unique taste like dog food...]
video;
Date: 2011-10-01 01:22 am (UTC)Do you think all five of them were trained to be shy?
[Okay, even Estelle doesn't quite believe that...]
video;
Date: 2011-10-01 01:27 am (UTC)... Maybe... I don't know everyone that owned them...
[ Definitely not believing it... ]
video;
Date: 2011-10-01 01:34 am (UTC)[....and she is doing everything in her power not to believe that these animals have a strong dislike for her. Why? She never did anything to these animals! All she wants to do is simply pet them and maybe even love on them a little. What's so wrong with that?]
video;
Date: 2011-10-01 03:22 am (UTC)...Good luck figuring out what's wrong...
