Macavity slammed the door behind him with a foot, sitting down in the living room, riffling through the mail. He made a habit of being around during the early afternoon, before he went out during the night. It was also usually when that bastard wasn't home.
He paused on a letter, opening it with a claw, and taking out the letter from Munkustrap, scanning the opening lines.

The front door opened, the silver tabby using his shoulder to hold it open while he maneuvered his two suitcases inside. He glanced around what he could see. It was worse than he remembered, but not by much. He glanced toward the stairs trying to decide whether to carry things upstairs or see if his brothers were home. He finally set the suitcases down at the foot of the stairs and moving into the front room.

Mac had leaped up at the slam of the door, glancing around and with his back to the wall, checking to see who had entered from around the doorway. He relaxed on seeing Munkustrap, and returned to the chair by the time the other entered the room. "Well," he said, picking up the letter again and taking note of the date on it. "Nice ta see you home, thanks for the warnin'," he said, waving the letter in one paw.

Munkus glanced from the letter to the still unopened mail. "I sent that a while ago..."

Mac inclined his head. "Well, plan earlier next time. Nice ta see you for the first time in... six years." Oh well, 'Straps still had a better track record that Coricopat.

Munkus' ears flickered back a bit at that. "I...got a bit busy."

Mac shrugged. "Well, you wrote at least." He leaned back in the chair, crossing his legs and steepling his paws. "How's life been treatin' you then?"

Munkus settled on the couch. "It's been...pretty good all told. How's it been for you?" He knew better than to ask that...

Macavity blinked at him for a long moment. "Oh, you know, hell on earth, but been survivin' well enough."

Munkus nodded very slightly. "And Tugger?"

Macavity paused for a very long moment and shrugged. "Ask him yourself whenever he 'ets home, but probably about the same." He looked his middle brother over again. "Big lawyer now then?"

He shook his head. "Hardly. I've got interviews at something like four different firms this week, and we'll see then."

"Still, a degree is nice ta have," Mac said, settling farther back into the chair.

Munkus nodded slightly. "I suppose that's true."

"Mhm," Mac said, one ear flickering back as he tried to process his brother sitting in front of him. "Well," he said, glancing around the house and almost cringing. "Well, this should be interestin' then. I take it you have no place ta stay other than here?"
