[Napstablook doesn't touch the network really, and this is the first time they've gone out of their way to address the whole network. They clearly look a little nervous. Maybe even a little more nervous than usual, considering the weird things they've been seeing out of the corner of their eyes.]

um... hi, this is napstablook... 

[The former ghost-turned-human is sitting on the floor of their room, with a box of meowing somethings right next to them. Upon closer inspection, there's a bunch of hideous-looking cats, with all teeth for faces. In the box, there's one oddball that's staring directly into the video feed for an uncomfortably long amount of time.]

i hope i'm not bothering anyone but
i found these outside and they seemed kind of hungry... at least i think they are... 
can anyone tell me what they eat...? 

[They kind of uh, smuggled them into their house. Unfortunately if they were trying to be discreet about it, the network post and gurgling meows from the kittens aren't really keeping it secret.]

[Awww, look at how cute and demented they are!]

They're carnivorous, so you'll want to give them meat. I am certain that those shops have plenty cans of stuff they can eat.

[WHAT IS SHE LOOKING AT]

Secrets and lies. Souls, probably. They look like soul-eaters.

[Oh god. They're so horrible looking. Magnus can't look away.]

I mean... it's gotta be fingers, right? My vote is fingers. Or just, you know, a good entire horse. They could just swallow it whole.

[Okay. There is a moment when she sees the toothed cats(?) where her breath stops and her mind is flash-hit by a chill.

Some of the feeling's still there when she starts recording her response. But she'll try to keep any sign of it off her face, at least.

A flat, dry repeat:]

"Seemed hungry".

[And if concern does come through anywhere, it might be in the slightly hushed element to the softer, airier:]

How have they been acting?

[She is not exactly a cat expert, but if anything ends up sounding like a red flag or reassurance, it'll be what it is.]

[ Fushimi’s also been a rare presence on the network since arriving last week, though it has nothing to do with shyness. He’s just found most of the posts to be irrelevant at best. This one would be no exception, if it weren't for...

Well. This disgusting thing. The camera pans to it momentarily before he turns it back to himself. ]

If you’re taking care of them, here’s another one.

[ The creature’s less obviously mutated than the ones shown on screen, but he’s certain the smell makes up for it. ]

I don’t want it.

[Oh lord.]

Are those just, uh...gonna be in the house forever now?

[ See, Saber likes cats — lions, specifically, but normal cats are fine too. These are not normal cats. ]

What manner of creatures are these? They seem more monster than anything else. [ Okay, they're like 90% cat and 10% monster, but holy shit that 10%. ]

[What kind of Pokemon are you? Not any Mewtwo knows of. One can't judge a book by it's cover, though, so he realizes that it's very possible that they're friendly..............they're not trying to eat Napstablook, at least.....]

They look to be carnivorous. If they are feline, they may enjoy fish. [Not that he would know anything about being feline. Obviously. At all.]

They were outside of your house? Or somewhere else?
