I have a question. by Astral Void on 2012-02-27 11:12:00 UTC Reply

Is there any reason why FicPsych could not use kittens as a way of relieving stress, tension and anger in suitable patients?

(Note that I said suitable- God knows I wouldn't give a kitten to Luxury.)

Well, that surely excludes any Dwarf Fortress dwarfs.

They're kidding, right? Kittens? How are we supposed to find the space, the time, the supplies...? We're stretched thin as it is. Can't they just go to the CAF Adoption Agency?

Suzine,

Hm, you're quite right. We are not currently equipped for such an undertaking. Perhaps if we cleared out room B-2. I shall have to give it some thought. I'll ask Frank to look into it, as well.

I don't know about the rest of us, but I can spare fifteen minutes for cats in my day. I like the idea. It would be nice for the agents, and what's more, it would be nice for us, too. Henry would love it.

I'm in. Though if you ask me, cats are all evil geniuses plotting to take over the world just as soon as they're done hawking up that hairball in your best pair of boots. Should come with a warning. "CAUTION: Kittens May Contain Evil."

Didn't someone have a mad scientist kitten?

What about Minis? by ShatteredSanity on 2012-02-27 22:06:00 UTC Reply

If kittens and puppies are allowed, then how about non-destructive minis? Agents would probably cheer up after seeing their friendly minis come and visit them!

Mini-Guardians from Card Captor Sakura aren't aggressive at all, for example. And they're quite cute too, being either plush-like or chibi-angel-like.

Yes, they get two different forms. Basically, since I made my spinoff before reading the other one in the same continuum (by Cygna Hime, who as far as I know isn't active anymore), I thought that "mini-Guardian" meant a chibi version of the angel-like ones (Yue and Nakuru). The other spinoff used the standby form of the beast-like ones (Keroberos and Spinel Sun).

Since aside from element affinity and shape they're the same thing, I then assumed that there was no reason why both forms couldn't be used.

Kittens yay! by Mister Shoebox on 2012-02-27 18:14:00 UTC Reply

It's a great idea! Kittens and puppies (For those agents who are allergic to cats)
Answer by Phobos on 2012-02-27 13:17:00 UTC Reply

I don't see any reason they wouldn't use kittens. It could be extremely useful, especially in cases of depression and angst.

On a side note, I don't see anything wrong with giving a kitten to Lux. Maybe not as a long term thing, but in the short term I don't see a problem.

Lux and the kitten. by Ellipsis Flood on 2012-02-27 16:49:00 UTC Reply

I wouldn't be surprised if kittens belonged to the few things to stop her from glompmolesting other agents.

Kittens are a force to be reckoned with.

Agreed wholeheartedly! I can see her enjoying a cuddly kitten a great deal, actually.

Kitten Therapy. This must be done some time! :D

Nurse: Doctor! It's Arwen! She's relapsing into memories from that Bad Slash she was involved in!

Doctor: We've no time to lose! I need a dozen kittens!
