video, un: white heron

[ The video starts off with a cat. A very fluffy cat with familiar ribbons where a cat's "side bangs" would be, and a familiar tiara-like ponytail… Said cat's fluffy tail is up as it is perched on someone she's comfortable with. As for said ‘comfortable someone’, all one can see of him is his midsection- a ribbed, sleeveless turtleneck top with his face out of shot. The focus of this was, after all, on the teeny fluffball. ]

Okay. We’re rolling.

[ Clearing her throat, which sounds like a cat trying to cough up a fur ball, she begins to speak: ]

Greetings. My name is Kamisato Ayaka, and as you can see, I have turned into a cat.

[ But because she is a cat? All one would be able to hear is her meowing at the camera. Literal "nya" and "meow" sounds, and no actual words being spoken. She… thinks people can understand her, because Cloud sure can. ]

Nya nya nya, nya nya nyanyanya, nya nya… [ She's talking about how this is probably Kizuna and asking if there is a way to reverse it as soon as possible because she has work to do… her ears fold inward and she "nyaa"s sadly. Out of shot, there’s a soft sigh before the magi-comm’s camera is angled up, leaving just the head of Nyayaka barely in frame as Cloud leans down a little to show up. ]

Right. That just about covers everything. [ covers what ] Anyone that’s got any ideas, thanks in advance.

[ The camera angles back down to Miss Kameowsato. ]

Nya.

[ Ever polite, Ayaka bows her head as thanks. ]

Think you got it, [ says an out of shot Cloud, hand coming down to gently pat her atop her floofy head before he reaches to stop the recording. ]

If I had thought of it, probably?

[He let Brickston feed him, after all.]

You could just wait until you turn back, but it took nearly a whole day for me.

[ Slut

Ayaka meows before she starts writing again.

I do not wish to remain like this for long! I wanted to do some things with Cloud today...

This is so terrible. ]

[Says the one bragging that she has things she wants to do with her hot boyfriend right here in front of his salad!!]

You know, after I turned back with you, I actually turned back into a cat again a few times.

[He just spent a week as a cat to explain all the split threads tbh.]

But I was able to turn back for good after someone wished me back to normal-- since kizuna can sometimes grant wishes like that. Maybe something like that would work for you too?

[ ... it's true her boyfriend is hot. Guilty.

Then perhaps it is not Cloud who can turn me back to normal?

Her ears flop inwards and she looks up at Cloud, sadness in her eyes. He is her prince, after all. If he can't help her, then who can?

Write write...

May I trouble you in trying for my sake? ]

[Actually, he'd probably be in the best position to help, since the one who ultimately turned him back was Itto -- but he hasn't told Ayaka about that yet, has he?]

Of course! I'd be happy to help-- should I come over? Or just try it from here?

Nya.

[ That one, she actually has to think about. Goodness...

After a few seconds of staring? She then starts writing things down.

I will have to ask permission from Cloud if you may visit, but if you are able to try from where you are, then that would be convenient. ]

Well-- I'll try from here first just to be sure.

[Surely Cloud wouldn't mind if it was to help Ayaka?? They're friends by now, anyway. Probably.]

Er... step back from the camera first, in case it works.

[He'll wait for her to move and then make a wish...!]

[But nothing happens to Ayaka -- and instead, Aether seems to disappear from the screen in an instant.]

[ Waiting.........

Waiting..........................

But Aether disappears?? HOLY SHIT

..????? ]

N- Nya? Nya!

[ SHE'S CALLING FOR THE TRAVELER... oh no!!!! Kitty face so close to the camera as if she can find him like that??? ]

[The silence lingers.]

[...]

[And then... a meow? Well, anyone else would hear a meow, but Ayaka is a cat, so she hears--]

What just-- why did--

[And thus, Nyaether peeks over into the camera, looking thoroughly disgruntled.]

Why did this happen!?

Y- You turned into a cat, too!

[ Thanks for stating the obvious, Ayaka. ]

Oh my... What a turn of events.

[Sooner or later, Cloud's gonna notice Ayaka talking back to the sound of meowing.]

...at least I can understand you now. But this is definitely not what I wished for.

Maybe trying to use Kizuna like that is more risky than I thought.

... thank you for trying anyway, Aether. I appreciate your efforts.

[ As thanks, she bows her head at the camera. ]

Umm... perhaps no more wishing for now.

There's not much worth thanking me for when I didn't really do anything...

[It almost feels worse being thanked?? Now he's doubly useless.]

Have you tried messaging anyone at the NRL or MRU? They might have a more legitimate solution.

[ thanks for turning into a cat :) ]

Ah, perhaps I can ask Cloud to do that. Typing is rather difficult. It might take me a long time to compose a message.

[ She sighs. ]

I do not doubt that I will be human again, but I just wish it could be expedited.

I hope to be back to normal before my brother sees this.

Ayato? Would it really be so bad? I'm sure he'd just want to help you, wouldn't he?

[Siblings help and support each other!!]

Ayato already has much on his plate. To add to that...

[ She doesn't want to cause additional stress for her brother! ]

I simply mustn't do that to him.

[Ayato, one of Genshin's many workaholic waifus.]

What if the same thing happened to him? Would you not want him to reach out to you if he needed help, just because you might be busy?

[ And yet, Aether ends up with the jobless himbo ]

I am sure Ayato would like to help, as I would were he in this predicament.

But I hope you understand that I do not wish to trouble him, or make him worry more than he already does. That is why I would rather tell him the story of what happened, rather than have him witness and be part of it.

[His dick's the size of Aether's thigh, of course he'd pick him.]

I do understand. But you know... I'm an older brother, too. And if my sister were in trouble, and she only told me after the fact... even if there was nothing I could have done, I'd still feel bad about not being there for her.

I know things aren't exactly the same as with you two -- Lumine and I are twins, after all. But relying on each other when you need help-- that's what family is for.

[What a sweet and heartfelt speech. Little stars even sparkle around him, as he briefly wonders whether he should message Lumine about this, too.]

[Sure would be a shame if this moment was ruined--]

[--by him abruptly turning back again.]

[...]

[At least the camera is angled so she only sees him from the chest up for a brief second, before he covers it with his hand.]

...but, er... anyway, it's up to you! I'm not going to say anything, so don't worry.

[ aether bussy hard at work ]

Ah... that is a very good point.

[ Thanks, bro. Now she feels a little bad. But it makes sense! Aether's advice has always been important to her, so she takes it to heart. ]

I suppose I will ask Cloud to call Ayato u- ah! [ NOW HE'S A NAKED HUMAN...

Slowly puts fluffy tail over eyes. ]

...I turned the camera off. Sorry.

[He really needs to stop flashing Ayaka?? Terrible.]

But-- that's good! Obviously I can't speak for Ayato, but I can imagine Lumine would be upset if I were to start relying on Itto more than her.

[Bros and sisters before hoes and misters.]

No, I would never have Ayato think that!

[ Oh no... She really should inform Ayato asap, then. Regardless if Aether can hear her as a human or as a cat, she sounds deeply troubled.

Ayato is the most important person in her life. That... That could never, ever change. He is the only family she has left, after all. ]

I shall contact him at once!

[....yeah, all he hears is a bunch of nya.]

Hopefully it wears off sooner than later, so we can talk without me needing to turn into a cat.

[ Oh! He doesn't understand her anymore... Then, she shall have to write down her thoughts.

You're a very good brother, Aether, and a very good friend. I hope to be back to normal soon, so I may properly show my gratitude to you. ]
