He was having some luck today, it seemed, because not a few moments after emerging onto the sixth floor corridor, Toby spotted himself another cat. No big surprise, really. Toby had some sort of animal radar; if there was an animal in the vicinity he was almost guaranteed to spot it. And usually pet it.

This one was another sleeper. It was just laying there, on a bench, curled up and snoozing. Toby stood there watching the tabby cat sleep for a little while before it occurred to him that that might be considered a little bit creepy. But, in his defence, he was just CHECKING it wasn't about to do anything else. When he was sure it was simply a sleeping cat, Toby took a seat next to it on the bench and unfolded his parchment to add the new interpretation. The cat's ears twitched and Toby saw it lazily open up one eye to see what was going on, but soon closed it again and otherwise ignored him. Using the bench as a desk, and referring back to his other copied out parchment, Toby wrote out the new stuff.

This could mean something to do with the storm that the last cat predicted, or something else. Maybe something more personal. I constantly feel like something is coming that I need to be ready for, but not necessarily that things are calm now. This might just be a weather thing, yeah.

Was that too personal? Nah, this was Divination. Sort of like... anything could be relevant, so it was best not to skip things. Though... Toby was unlikely to get TOO personal with these predictions. He founded up his parchments and gave the cat a little pet, just like the one downstairs. Once he was satisfied he had shared the love sufficiently, Toby stood once more and headed off down the corridor, intending to keep ascending through the castle if he didn't find another cat on this floor.
