The tom grinned as he turned his head, seeing the kitten dart over to them and flicked his tail in greeting. "Hey, Cettie; actually yeah I do, I was there so I saw what happened. hop up." Tugger shifted postion as well as the old tom in order to make more room. "I don't mind tellin' it again if you really wanna know!"
Truth be told, he was still shaken from the whole thing; he disliked nasty pollicles as much as the next cat, and this one was terrifying. Not only that, but cats got hurt.
(Ahhh midterms;; I really should have left warning but I didn't think I would be this busy over the break with family. I'll be definitley checking more often now, apologies again! And no worries he can pop in! )

Cettie let out a light squeal as he invited her up with flicking his tail, momentarily forgetting why she was there as she bounded up on the tire and snuggled up to his arm. It reminded her slightly of all the cuddling to him she did at the ball but that only lasted a moment as well because it was only then did she notice the blood on Tugger's coat. The kitten's eyes went wide in surrise as she looked at him concerned. "Did you get hurt too?!"

Keiiji had slipped into the junkyard, with silent footfalls. He had a sash effectively covering his mouth-only showing a hint of a scar on his cheek, peeking out from his sash. A belt was around his waist, and bandages were tied around his biceps, arms, legs, and one around his forehead-tied to the side, though most of that white cloth was covered by his mane. He slowly moved toward the center of the yard, and caught the sound of voices coming from the tire. With steady steps, he appeared from the entrance to the right of the tire. His caramel colored eyes looked at Rum Tum Tugger with Etcetera attached to his arm, and then over to Gus. He walked closer, though not close enough to make any of them feel threatened. "Hey." He spoke softly through his sash. "Has something happened?"

the old tom blinked, and blinked again for just the barest moment he thought that he was looking at Firefrorefiddle the Fiend of the fell! then the frail old tom shoo his shabby coat and sat his thin frame up. "why yes my boy we were just discussing an incident that happened earlier today, a policlle got into the yard and while no one was killed several of the tribe were injured."
Gus replied in a dignified voice.

The tom grinned and shifted to put his arm around her, knowing her to be the cuddly type of kitten. At her concerned question, he blinked, having had forgotten momentarily that he'd had trouble getting all of the blood out. "Ah, yeah it's blood but I'm not hurt; it stained my coat when I was carrying Victoria so that she could have her wound treated." A moment later, as Keiji appeared; he hadn't seen too much of this tom about, and he was a little wary of his appearance. However, his soft voice didn't make him seem threatening, so he didn't let it bother him too much.
"Yeah, that's what happened; some can-openers took it away so the threat's gone."

Cettie's lip quivered slightly at the thought that all that blood was from Victoria's wound along with the fact a Pollicle had been threatening the Yard and the young kitten shivered slightly, despite having Tugger warm arm around her. "So the Pollicle hurt Vic?" she asked Tugger, worry behind her eyes. She hoped that was the case, she hated to think Jemima was right about it being Quaxo's fault, since she knew how Victoria felt about the magical Tom.

Keiiji simply gave a nod at Tugger. The tom had given him a small look which he assumed was the equivalent of an acknowledgement, but he strutted over towards Gus, getting comfortable. Well, comfortable enough. He leaned back against the bulk of the pipe beside the tire, but continued to stand. His brow did raise slightly, more of a twinge, at being called boy. "It does seem like the immediate threat is over, at least." The burnt tabby's tail flicked and his eyes were back on Gus. "Tugger was involved." He noted by the toms bloodied chest. "Were you?" His question was directed at Gus.

the frail old tom gave a heavy sigh "no no, unfortunately I was not here to see, which is why I was asking young Tugger here. I think that it has the potential to be another Pekes and the Policlles if it is handled correctly." Gus said as he scratched himself with his claws.
"but then most likely I would only have been in the way, after all adventures are
the pursuit of the young, the telling of them that is the provence of the old." he continued with a smile. then he gave a bone popping stretch.

Tugger cuddled Etcetera closer to him in an attempt to comfort her, she was always such an excitable kitten it was difficult to see her upset, "No, Everlasting, it was a good thing it never got near her. I didn't exactly see how it happened, but Quaxo used his magic to hit it and somehow next thing we all knew Victoria was hit with a rock." He turned his attention back to the other two toms.
"I don't think it's nearly as impressive of a story as Munk's favorite; it was only one mangy pollicle." Despite talking tough about it, the thought of the pit bull's huge jaws was frightful and he held back a shudder but again grooming his chest.
"Speaking of my brother, has he heard the news?"

Keiiji's hard stare was directed at Gus. He understood the old tom, better then he imagined he would. He couldn't say if he agreed with the old tom's storytelling needs, not that he'd show it either way, but he did understand that side of the smaller old tom. With a shrug of his shoulders, and a straight face, he directed to Tugger. "Nothing a good embellishing and distortion of the facts can't cure." Keiiji didn't express the fact that the Peke's and the Pollicles probably didn't start off with that many dogs on either side. Stories did tend to lose facts over time.
His caramel eyes did briefly glance at the sky to gauge the time. "I have business elsewhere. However, inform Munkustrap that if he is ever in need of someone to take some extra protector shifts, that I am available." He didn't insinuate that the jellicles needed extra protection. He didn't presume, it was an open offer.
[Exit Keiiji]

Cettie relaxed at the words of know exactly how what injured her close friend and of course Tugger's extra cuddling helped. All the butterflies in her tummy almost made her want to giggle and she sighed lightly. "That's good, Pollicles give me a fright and Jem had thought Quaxo had hurt her with his magic but if it was just rock, I think she's okay then." She smiled at Tugger lightly.

the frail old tom laughed, "well good luck on your ventures my Boy!" he said to Keiji as he left. then he settled back down and watched the youngsters paralytically billing and cooing. 'ahh to be young again!go on kiss her boy!" he thought to himself. "yes Cettie I am sure that she is," he said aloud then he smiled at the princess. "so have you given any thought to Joining the Theater Troupes Dance Chorus?" Gus asked her.

The tom nodded as Keiji took his leave, making a mental note of the other's offer before returning his attention to Etcetera and Gus. "She should be alright; Quaxo still blames himself though so I think he too thinks it was his magic, but Victoria herself said it was an accident," the maine coon stroked the fur along her shoulders. Tugger was now curious over the question Gus asked of her, not having been aware that such an offer had been made.

Cettie blinked curiously at Gus. "I don't know anything bout it but does it involve much tumbling or time on a trapeze? I love doing either!"
She sighed happily as Tugger stroked her fur, distracted from thinking about the troupe and looked at him lovingly for a moment. "If Vic doesn't think Quaxo's magic is what hurt her then I think she'll help Quaxo see it. She really likes him."

the old tom smiled at the two fondly "yes, yes I'm sure that he did not mean to hurt her intentionally but magic can be a tricky thing and often it demands a price. now my dear I saw the way danced at the ball, and you followed the group choreography's so well that I thought that you might give the theater a try!" Gus said giving his ear a scratch. "and yes there may be tumbling involved depending upon the piece."
