[Midnight Hotel] July catch-alll

Characters: Anyone, everyone.
Date: Month of JULY, 2016.
Location: The Midnight Hotel.
Situation: Catch-all post! Feel free to use this post for anything that happens within the Midnight Hotel during the month, using the subject header to label specific rooms or for specific people. See also the OOC note at the bottom.
Warnings/Rating: Mark your threads if content warnings become applicable, please!

Though the attack on Anton and Jintou occurred outside of the Hotel, its effects can nevertheless be seen on the Hotel’s runnings during July. Jintou is absent, in the first place, though Anton keeps his room in the event he’s found.

For the last few days of June and the first couple days of July Anton is preoccupied with rebuilding the shops he damaged in his attempt to stop Jintou from being taken, and therefore a good deal of the Hotel’s daily running is in the hands of his staff and a handful of trusted ex-gang kedan.

Within the first few days of the month Anton’s health takes a nosedive. Though the chronic condition discovered by Raine and Tony wasn’t previously active, the poisoning attempt apparently changed that and for the rest of this month Anton is under enforced bed-rest—or if not bed-rest then an enforced holiday. For that reason, any and all offers to help out with maintenance, cleaning, cooking, accounting and other daily chores at the Hotel will be welcomed.

Provided, that is, that no one minds the Hotel proprietor hovering over their shoulders—when he isn’t being sat on by a giant wolf to make sure he doesn’t overtax himself.

Hotel rules are, obviously, still in effect.

"Yes...from home," she told him, still baffled as to how he had found his way onto the Turtle-- how any of them had found their way here.

She frowned as he squirmed, and moved to wrap him in a napkin instead so she could hold him more comfortably. Before she could, however, the small kitten burst into flame, and with a rush of feathers, would put himself far out of her reach above them where he would proceed to preen his red and gold plumes himself.

Frustrated, she sighed and crossed her arms, holding the lightly charred napkin in her fist as she scowled up at the large bird. "Really?"

Yuri was about to say something, but then the kitten exploded in a mass of flames and feathers. Yuri gawked, stunned for a few moments before finally speaking.

"I don't think kittens are supposed to do that."

"..."

Dove shook her head, watching to make sure the bird stayed put. "They're not. Especially not that one," she sighed, watching as Era warbled at a stray passerby or two on the upper floors.

"Soo... I take it he's not really a cat."

And now he's looking up. If what he saw was any indication that was definitely not a cat.

"No... Well--sometimes. I warned him that he was supposed to stay a cat while we're in the hotel... little twerp,"she explained, still frowning distastefully up at the now-bird. She nearly growled as it stretched to its full wingspan and crooned at a few of the startled spectators below. "Showoff."

Shaking her head, she raised a hand into the air, flames leaping into her palm as her soul gem slowly brightened. "Era," she called her tone stern.

The bird immediately shied and tucked his wings back in, before turning to the woman. A few seconds more and he had swooped down, his feathers falling away in flames and disappearing as he became a tiny kitten once more.

Dove caught him effortlessly in her arms. Clearly, it had become routine.

Era only mewled up at her and Yuri innocently, and purred.

Yuri blinked and placed a hand on his hip with an amused look as the bird turned into a kitten again and dropped into Dove's arms.

"He's got some spunk."

He could come to like this kitten, bird, whatever it was.

"He thinks he's cute," she replied in a sigh, despite the fact that she was visibly softening as the kitten rubbed its head against her wrist. She shook her head and turns her attention up to Yuri instead. "I'm surprised he hasn't tried to eat the rest of your cake..." A slight grin. "The frosting was good, at least."

Because, well... That was all she had tasted so far. She wasn't sure if it had been the flavor of the icing or the satisfaction of how distracted he had become because of her, though, that had been so appealing.

Twisting in her arms, the kitten peeped up at Yuri as well, demanding his attention once again.
