Cataline Gale
Cataline was busy writing in her research report - about the emotions of the Complications. While she was alone in her room, much of her attention was focused on the work that she was doing. She loved the Complications - they were such an amusing subject of study. But then, her beloved, and blank room decided to interrupt. “Message from Ms.Bodair.” intoned the room in a deadly boring monotone. “Cataline, you have no direct orders for right now, you may do as you wish, but make yourself useful.” The message ended, and Cataline looked up at her room’s white-washed walls with a mocking smile.
“Hanging up already, Jessie?” she stated, then, with amusement in her voice. “I didn’t even have the chance to reply.” She sighed. Her director was always so serious - Cat wondered what it would take for the woman to loosen up and go have some fun. But the news was pretty good - it meant that she could probably duck out of Complications for a few hours, terrorize Vivi for quite some time, and maybe even go to a party. Or... it was the perfect time to do something about her room. Maybe some pink paint, and if she got bored, she might as well scrawl her name too over at Vivi’s office. She chuckled to herself when thinking about what the horror she could do to make her beloved, when making fun of him at the very least, Vivi miserable. “Oi, room!” she suddenly ordered.
“is there anything that you need, Miss Gale?”
Such a boring voice. She wished that somehow it would show emotion, but everyday, despite her best efforts at irritating the thing, it would only reply in the same way. Always that one sentence. ’is there anything that you need, Miss Gale’ It wouldn’t even listen to her when she asked it to call her Cat. She frowned before making her order. “Paint. Pink paint, and lots of it.” While her test subjects had quite a strict restriction on exactly what the hole in the wall would create, hers had no such limitation. “Brushes too.” If the room had any reaction to this request, it didn’t show as three cans of bright pink paint and a large brush appeared. She looked around at her room - there wasn’t much of anything really. There was a white bed to one side, and a desk on the other. Smiling at herself, she opened the can, and dunked the brush in. It had taken her far too much time to get to doing this.
But there was something that was missing. Digging around on the messy pile of paper on her desk, she picked up a half-melted piece of candy. Cat dropped the brush on the ground without a thought, and ate the candy. Mmmm. Cherry flavored. She looked down at the pink splotch on the previously spotless ground with a frown. But who cares, she’d just paint everything pink then!
Actually, she ought to go and fix Vivi’s room for him first - who knows what kind of expression he’d wear when he saw her new addition. Armed with the paint and brush, she was just about to make her way to his room, before…
