i. salt and sand

[ There's rude awakenings, and then there's this. Doesn't anyone know not to drop a cat in the water? Not that he's a cat, of course.

Still, now that he's dragged himself out of the water and sand to the edge of the beach, he's parked himself down to clean. Seeing a cat by the beach having a tongue bath isn't anything extraordinary... if it weren't for the paper stubbornly stuck in his yellow collar. Paper that will look familiar to any other Chosen. ]

I can't believe it. This is the thanks I get...?

[And the fact that he's talking.]

ii. stop and smell the flowers

[Despite everything, it seems like he's gotta find a way to earn his keep in this world. No more freeloading as an undercover Phantom Thief, nope. And of course, this is another world designed for people with thumbs. Rude!

At least flower picking isn't too hard. His superior sense of smell can help him pick out some particularly choice specimens, too. Big bright things. He's picked a few and was bringing them back to town, but... he has to carry them with his mouth, and well...

There's a cat sprawled out on this walkway, surrounded by flowers.]

It's getting late, isn't it? We should be getting to bed... hmrrrrrrm....

[Someone got hit by sleepiness pollen. Did you get the same stuff, or something else?]

iii. a pile of junk

[What's the best way to begin your rehabilitation from a lifetime of crime? Why, more crime, of course! A certain someone has stolen a bag full of broken phones and tablets and run off with it. A thief to the end. Never mind that he could have just taken them for free if he asked, but the criminal mind never sleeps.

Somewhere in a nearby alleyway, he's laid out a bunch of them next to each other. Maybe you followed him, or maybe you caught sight of a cat poking and prodding at a bunch of electronics with very little success.]

C'mon, one of you has to have something useful on here...! The date, or a map. Or anything!!

iv. wildcard
