[It isn't until Holmes has turned and started to walk away that Otto opens his eyes again, raising a webbed hand to his bleeding cheek. Mmh, that'll heal just fine, he's sure. There's a few seconds of hesitation before his gaze swerves towards Ray. He doesn't mind that she knows about the lake incident, but he is embarrassed that she found out like this.]

The offer still stands, yes. I'll be here whenever you need it. [...] And I'm sorry you had to see this.

[It isn't that Sherlock doesn't trust Rachel's stomach. It's that she sometimes has difficulty, when behavior registers as similar to a misbehaving animal, and she had tried to pet him a moment ago.

But they move forward -- they will all move forward.

He holsters the gun.]

Until tomorrow, Miss Gardner.

[And he stalks off in the direction of the road to Djavulenstad, long black tail swishing behind him. He made his choice, and he will live with it.]

[He might be being a bad kitty, but he's not being her bad kitty or attacking her. Acting more behaved than what Ray frankly expects of people helps, too. She doesn't linger, sweeping some of her honey-textured hair back off her shoulder with her arm and oozing on over to Otto as if nothing worthy of upset had just happened. After all,]

I've seen a lot worse. [Just acting like he's asked about her day, no big deal.] It wasn't much of a surprise, but I guess it is good to know who made the reason I had to possess him to get him to work back then. I couldn't possess my brother after. That was sad.

[Otto's thankful, in an odd way, that Ray isn't fretting over him, or even acknowledging the repercussions of the confrontation too much. He does better when he isn't forced to confront these things. Besides, he deserved this.]

Oh... I'm sorry. I didn't mean- [He stops talking abruptly.] No, of course I didn't mean for these things to happen. But they did.
