Alyssa's lip twitched as she fought to keep from laughing. Normally she'd let it ring out for all she was worth, but these were new cats--er, that is, she was new, and she wanted them to like her. And Miss Lady-snob probably wouldn't like her if she (Alyssa) laughed at her (Cassandra). "W-well, I'm--" A snort escaped. "I'm Alyssa!" she cried, though mixed with her pent-up laughter it came out more like "Ayeawrmissuh". She cleared her throat, ready to try again, but couldn't contain herself. Her loud laughter rang out all around the junkyard.

Pixie joined in. Oh, did she love annoying Cassandra. She was glad someone had found her funny. "Nice ta meet ya, Aly!"- she said, bouncing over to the other queen. Pixie glanced back at Cassandra, a cheeky grin on her brown and white face.

Alyssa now giggled harder than ever, giving up all pretense of holding it in. She held out a paw to Cassandra, trying to greet her between snorts of laughter. "N-nice to meet you, Cassandra!" Except it came out more "Nice to eat you, cowsalmon!" which made Aly laugh even harder.

((Sorry...I'll make it so you don't constantly have to wait for me.))
Cassandra's ears kept flicking backwards, as a faint smile kept tugging at her lips. That's fine, She thought, Just fine. She gave the two queens her best smile,"Well it's nice to meet you too, Alyssa. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm a tad hungry. Good day to you gals." She lightly trodded passed the queens and sought a place where she could be alone. She needed the solitude, and quite frankly, she needed a place where she could clean the mud off of her fur.

((It's okay))
Pixie's eyes gleamed with happiness. "Adieu, Cassie!" - she called over, a large grin across her face. "Well. Now that witch is gone, what were you wanting to know before?" The tabby grabbed her tail and held it tight. It was starting to get irritating. "Hmm?"

((Oh that's fine X2 *huggles*)) Alyssa watched for a moment as Cassandra left. "Oh, dear, hope she's not too mad," she said. But that thought fled her mind as she turned back to the other queen. "Ah, yes, well I just met this other queen--do you know her? A butter-cream queen, a real grouch? Well anyway, she said something about 'Jellicles', and I was just wondering what in catnip is a Jellicle? And..." She looked around. "How many cats live here, anyway?"

Pixie shrugged. "I've never really bothered to count, actually. I guess you met Safa?" The tabby looked over at Cassandra with a smirk. "She'll be fine. She just thinks she's better than everyone else." Pixie went back to the question about the Jellicles.
"It's a tribe of Cats that live here in the junkyard" - she explained.

"Oh," said Alyssa, beginning to understand. "Hmph, well Safa--that's the butter cream queen?--she could've told me that herself, but nooo, it was 'go ask someone else and leave me alone, you pest!' I hope...erm...I'm sure most of the cats here are more...well, friendly than her?"

Pixie nodded. "Of course they are better than her. You'll find the occasional - like Safa - grump but most of the time you're fine." She tried a back flip but landed on her back. She got herself up and dusted off. "I was supposed to do that, y'know."

"Hm? Oh--er, of course," said Alyssa, assuming Pixie was talking about the...interesting dance move she'd just done. "So..." Alyssa shuffled her feet awkwardly. This was weird! Since when did she feel awkward? Just the fact that she felt awkward was awkward! She shook her head. Come on, just ask. You love talking. "Is there...um...I mean... so can I stay here?" she blurted out. Well that was one way of doing it.

She shrugged. "I guess. I have no problem with you staying. I think it's up to Old D. to decide permanently." Pixie sighed. She remembered when she became part of the tribe.

"Sweet!" Alyssa tried not to laugh. "Old who?" Man, she felt sorry for any cat stuck with a name like 'D.'! "Is he, like, the leader, or..something?"

"Old Deuteronomy" - Pixie replied, grinning slightly. "Yeah, he's the Jellicle Leader." The tabby fixed her headfur and tweaked her ear.

"Ohh, so Old D. was an abbreviation," Alyssa nodded, understanding. "He actually lets you call him Old D.?!"

"Yeah, I guess. He's a real nice guy." Pixie shrugged and tried a forward flip.
