[Kittykira is innocent! Innocent of all crimes! He goes limp in Kurapika's hold, tail swishing sweetly from side to side... What kind of monster could get mad at him for behaving like any cat would?]
[This? This is acceptable. Being hauled over a shoulder like a sack of potatoes isn't normally a comfortable or welcome experience, but in his small and kitty-esque form, Akira doesn't mind it at all. This must be why Morgana slings himself over his shoulder so often, treating himself to the warmth of his shoulder and the higher vantage point it provides.]
Mrrrow?
[Akira squeezes out from under Kurapika's palm to stand on his shoulder and take a gander at his desk. If he's grabbing a new book, he wants to know what he's reading next.]
[ Having the entire weight of a cat standing on his shoulders hurts a little bit, but it's fine. It's hard to be mad at the pain when it's concentrated through cute little kitty paws.
There are a good number of books on Kurapika's desk, sitting upright and organized by author. His fingers graze along the spines. ]
Most of these are history books, but I have a few pieces of fiction. [ He stops on one book, lingering on the spine. ] This one is a typical hero's journey.
[Akira peruses the options, reading each spine, but it's the hero's journey that stands out to him most. Hopping down onto the desk, Akira taps that one repeatedly with his paw. They both like this sort of thing, don't they? Maybe they could read it together.]
[ That makes him smile, and he plucks that book from its row. ]
These were my favorite stories as a kid. When I was young, my friend and I taught ourselves the common language just so we could read a book about a hero's adventures in the world.
[Akira chirps in approval. The best stories are the ones that hold a place close to your heart, aren't they? Akira rubs his little kitty head against Kurapika's cheek. Do it. Read him some of your childhood favorite.]
[ And he will, reading it aloud to Nyakira until he eventually starts to nod off. Turns out reading is pretty tiring if you haven't slept much in the last few days.
[It's the same for Akira. Tucked into the comfortable niche between Kurapika's shoulder and neck, he drifts off into pleasant kitty slumber. Goodnight, Kurapika. Thanks for humoring his antics.]

I meant it. One more time and you're getting kicked out.

[That's fine! Maybe he wants to get kicked out? Akira isn't going to cave to idle threats.
Akira gets up, gingerly stretches, taps down to the end of the bed and bites Kurapika's foot.]

And then, he moves to scoop him up.
This is your punishment—air jail. ]

You brought this on yourself.

[Akira's tail moves as a cow's does, swatting at invisible flies. He is not! Happy!! Kurapika made his point, so can he put him down please?]

You're funny.
[ He sets Kittykira on his shoulder like a sack of flour as he goes to his desk to grab a different book. ]
