Speaking of fun, the ball the cat was playing with looked... fun.
Could he do that too?
What he wasn't expecting was the cat to go NEAR HIS CHESSBOARD NO. Flinging into the air, he hopped sideways towards the cat, unable to really control doing that BUT HE NEEDED TO DO IT. The young Gryffindor stopped on the other side of the chessboard, tail flicking randomly and all ready to POUNCE in case the cat felt like scratching his precious hand-me-down game. Though the cat's paw wasn't scratching. It was just sitting there. ON HIS GAME SET.
On the Queen position to be exact. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. That was Marsha's spot. TAKE IT OF-

Kitten!Lance dropped onto his belly, ears back, and eyes wide and apologetic.
Oh.
As she had thought, the fluffiness of his tail hadn’t gone down when she had gone near his chess set - but it had gotten his attention… Enough that he had leapt into action. Huh, sideways jumps were curious… Silently, she wondered if she could try doing one without being angry or upset… They looked fun… if a little funny.
She’d try it if she couldn’t get Lance to recognise her - and even if she did… she might do it just to test it - they looked bouncy and bouncy was normally fun. Hehehe.
Though, as she looked up again, Lance had one of his own paws on HIS side of the board. … Did that mean he realised SHE was HER and not some random first year’s over hyper kitten that wanted to play?
No… Still getting loo-.
Ah, there we go. She watched him fall to the floor, all but rubbing his nose in the carpet. She moved slowly to him, before lowering to the ground and “army crawling” forward to him like she had seen Duchess do before. Actually, it was much easier doing this as a cat - no carpet burn.
When she got close enough, she leant in to him and rubbed her check against his again. It was okay, she was just glad her bestie knew who she was NOW so they still had time to play. Nudging his face with her softly, she got back up and tried that pounce!jump style thing back to the ball.
Then she nudged it over to him with her head.
AKA. Play with me?
