[ For whatever reason today, you're out and about. It's nice enough, an alright time to just be and have a moment alone with your thoughts. ]

Hey!

[ Until a heavily accented voice presumably calls at you. ]

You there! Yeah, you!

[ It's a...cat? That's a cat. A cat standing on its hind legs with a little crown and cape is smiling up at you, waving you towards it. ]

Interest you in gettin' your fortune told? A bright future! A happy future!

I'm actually working.

[Scowling down at the automaton (must be) from below the rim of his helmet, Cloud huffed. He was just trying to do his (very boring, currently, nothing happened in the main square this close to Sector 0 and the entrance to the Tower) job and he couldn't even see someone who might be controlling the apparent stuffed toy.

He also felt weird addressing it and glanced around, but there weren't that many people around here after the lunch rush was over and he was left alone with the awkwardness of feeling stupid talking to an automaton that probably only had a few lined recorded.]
