[Sussy as hell... But despite his appearances, he seems to be having the time of his life harassing this poor cat under duress of capture, at least until Gojo sweeps it back up into his arms. Is that a pout Gojo saw, just for a moment there? Surely not.]

Ah, I could only wish. [Matoba folds his hands back into the sleeves of his kimono. (He is not answering the question about being taken or not.)] Although I wouldn't mind feeding it a little while. Taking it to dinner, hm...

[Y-you meant taking the cat out to dinner, right. Right.]

But, while I'm here, there's no shame in having a little fun as well. [His smile, which has relaxed into something more calm and collected, curls into a smirk.] I had heard that there was a lot of trouble being caused by the cats around here lately, so I thought I might as well pitch in and help... It seems that what you have there is nothing more than a hungry stray.

Shall we find the true culprits?
