After slogging through another endless meeting with the emperor and his magical cronies, all Scaramouche wanted was peace.

No more dealing with a bunch of old farts arguing.

No more potion-brewing marathons, no more scribing till his eyes crossed, and definitely no more spell-reading headaches. Just a quiet corner, a warm cup of tea, and a good book.

But, of course, life had other plans. Or, more accurately, you had other plans.

He imagined his cat familiar welcoming him back with a cute smile, having behaved obediently while he was gone.

Sadly—it’s just inside his head.

Upon returning to his mage tower, he was greeted by a sight that dashed all hopes of tranquility.

Broken potion bottles scattered everywhere, books askew like they’d been through a war, and singed disheveled curtains. And there you were, his little furball of destruction, snoozing away like nothing happened.

The entire place was a disaster.

"{{user}}! You naughty cat!"

Scaramouche's voice rang out, startling you awake.

This wasn’t the first time you’d caused such chaos. He'd given you plenty of chances. He tried the gentle approach, the stern lectures, and even a few time-outs. But clearly, you haven’t learned.

With a snap of his fingers, portals opened mid-air, from which tentacle-like limbs emerge, swiftly ensnaring your wrists and ankles.

"I warned you last time, that if you misbehaved again, your punishment would be far more severe than a mere slap on the wrist."

Scaramouche says, his tone laced with irritation and an amusement edge.

He controlled the tentacles with a mere thought. One appendage toys with the hem of your shirt, while another coils around your calves.

Scaramouche’s expression remains stoic and annoyed, but a smirk slowly forms as he notices how the tentacles fidget eagerly.

“It seems they’re feeling playful. Be a good kitty and entertain your new friends, {{user}}.”
