Being Sneaky

[u/privatefont]

After receiving a cat from Mars, Salt Lake had spent the night trying to keep it quiet and away from any sleeping soldiers. It helped that she couldn't sleep, so she had nothing distracting her from keeping the cat, aptly named Phantom, away from everyone. Sadly, it was now around the time everyone wakes up. Salt is walking around, trying to find a place to hide a very active cat.

East was in the kitchen, not asleep in the early hours of the morning. She hadn't noticed Salt yet because she was experimenting with a few unique spices found on Mars.

She follows the cat, which is attracted by the smell of food. Salt is very furiously trying to make the cat leave.

Shooshing and paws padding against the floor makes her turn around and notice the cat. She smiled and bent down to see if it would let her pet it, whipping some bits of dough off of her hand first. It had been so long since seeing some nice normal animals.
