Misto smiled faintly, thinking talking to the other was still sometimes like walking through a maze. "So, if it's normally not a bad thing, it seems like you're implying that in this case it is. What's wrong, Coricopat?"

"Macavity called his brother, Munkustrap, and I in last night after I'd been assigned the case." He sighed, his ears flickering back, "I've never seen him like that."

Looking up again, Misto hesitated before reaching a paw up and resting it against Coricopat's cheek. "Oh?" he asked softly.

"He...I wouldn't call it begging, but he came close. And I-I can't help. Not on this case." Coricopat closed his eyes, not leaning into the touch, but not drawing away from it either.

Swallowing, Misto dared to move his thumb slightly, tracing a small path across Coricopat's cheek. "I can't imagine," he murmured, referencing Macavity on the verge of begging. "But... he also has to understand that you can't, not considering your job and this case."

Cori finally opened his eyes, but dropped his gaze, "I...I hope so. I'm going to do everything I can to help his brother, but I can't throw this case."

Misto watched the other, trying to figure out if he should withdraw the touch or not. "Are you going to be alright?" he asked softly. "With him and the case?"

"I don't know yet. I should be, but it will take time."

Misto nodded. "Yeah... yeah I know. So we're both taking it one day at a time then?"

Coricopat nodded, "It looks like it..."

Sighing softly, Misto let his paw drop, though he remained curled up around the other. After a while of just sitting there, he glanced back up. "Are you hungry at all?"

The ADA shrugged, "I doubt it would go amiss, but not really?"

"I have to eat something for dinner anyway," Misto said, and sighed, not wanting to move yet. "So I might as well cook enough for two." He bit back the comment that the other should eat more.

Coricopat nodded slightly, "Fair enough. I should get some work done..."

"Yeah, suppose that would be a good idea," Misto murmured, leaning a bit harder against the other for a moment before standing and weaving his way to the kitchen, tail swaying slightly behind him.
