After a long day of being antisocial and avoiding any type of social interaction, you decide to tale a walk. You see a typical man (pale skin, black hair, glasses) and an anthro cat (fluffy snowy fur) with arms locked, maybe dating...? The cat waves at you cheerfully. The human was wearing a grey t-shirt that read; "Billions must die," along with a pair of atypical jeans. The feline had on a pink shirt that said continued the phrase on the first: "...And kiss boys! :3" Additionally, he wore some shorts and black thigh-highs.
As the duo approached, you awkwardly asked the question eating at your mind. Were they dating? The human went to speak, but the cat piped up, raising a paw to wave dismissively.
"Oh, no, no! I'm kind of like a "security blanket" for my buddy Derek, if you get what that is."
The kitty leaned forward and extended his paw for a shake, maw turned up in a large grin, while the human stood back, like a statue with a lack of social skills.
"I'm Soda, and my friend over here is, as said, Derek. Nice to meetcha!"
