Captain Fluffypaws and the Myth of Australia (2025-04-05)

Aftermath and Pirate Business

  • Mia, Det, and Siz wrap up their discussion with Abrar Kraghide, who promises to keep them updated on any starport-related data.
  • Chimes remains excited and chimes cheerfully at regular intervals.
  • Det jokes about Abrar’s “pirate” status, prompting him to confess to owning a cat—despite pets being banned in tech areas.
  • The infamous "Captain Fluffypaws" is mentioned—a portside feline of fearsome reputation.

The Feline Appears

  • Without warning, a massive striped cat (about 40 cm shoulder height) strolls casually through the office corridor.
  • Sounds of crashing objects and hissing precede his arrival.
  • Siz leaps onto a table in primal Ysoki fear, declaring cats as “apex predators” and warning they hunt baby Ysoki.
  • Det and Mia observe the creature with varying levels of concern, amusement, and scientific interest.

Australia Is a Lie

  • Conversations spiral briefly into myths and human evolutionary nonsense:
 - Det recalls a fabled place with giant spiders—"Australia".
 - Mia flatly denies its existence as a hoax.
 - Chimes and Siz contribute comments about death worlds and Australian flora.

Meeting the Captain

  • The group visits Captain Fluffypaws' office:
 - The room is chaos—scratched furniture, empty snack boxes, and a large tub doubling as a food bowl.
 - A name plaque reads: *Captain Fluffypaws, Pest Control and General Management*.
  • Mia embraces the Captain with unhesitating affection, disappearing under a mountain of striped fur and deep rumbling purrs.
  • Det and Siz remain cautiously near the door:
 - Siz’s fur has tripled in size due to stress.
 - Det remains bemused but curious.
 - The Captain offers slow blinks and a few unsolicited headbonks.

Ysoki Ancestry & Uplifted Origins

  • Siz explains that Ysoki were engineered by Dark Elves as a slave race, not merely evolved rats.
  • She compares the relation to modern rats as equivalent to humans and bonobos.
  • Det shares that her own education never covered much galactic history—her people live under the stars but seldom look beyond themselves.

Departure and One Last Scent

  • As they prepare to leave the starport, Fluffypaws follows them briefly and sings “the song of his people”—a mournful, thunderous meow echoing through the corridors.
  • Abrar remains behind, smiling at the chaos, while promising to send any findings.
  • As the trio exits:
 - Det uses the card to retrieve the address of the mysterious library.
 - Mia catches a faint, uncanny scent of fudge—gone almost immediately.
 - Siz shivers again, still bristling from the encounter.
