A few short things.

My cat is having kittens, apparently. And apparently she came to me this way, which explains why she looks about the size of an American football down the middle.

A nice girl at the club made an interesting mistake of referring to me as Ota as a nickname instead of Otabek. In Kazakh it means something she likely didn't intend. So - I am sharing so no one else makes the similar mistake. Otabek is fine. No nicknames or whatever needed. Please.

Also, this place is feeling quiet. Especially at the rink. So if anyone wants to come skate with me... I'm there almost every afternoon. I'm not sure if others would enjoy it, but the offer is there. If you can't skate...I can show you. I'm not a teacher, but...getting comfortable on the ice is something I know.

I wouldn't mind trying skating. It was something Yuuri had mentioned to me before he.. went back or went somewhere else.

What are you going to do with the kittens? Cats have multiple babies, don't they?

[bringbackgold]

Ah. I know Yuuri. We're both...originally from the same place.

Hopefully give them away to trusted people.

[realimperfect]

Oh, really? There seems to be a good many of you, including Viktor.

I don't think I've ever sen kittens other than, I don't know, science books.

[bringbackgold]

Yeah. And Yuri, as well.

Then maybe you can see one once my cat has hers.

[realimperfect]

I wouldn't mind that, if you'll keep me in mind.

The same if you ever decide to give skating lessons, I think. If only so that someone might catch a laugh if I can't keep my balance.

[bringbackgold]

Alright.

I'm not much of a teacher. Not like Viktor or Yuuri would have been, at least. ...But I don't mind showing things here and there.

[realimperfect]

I wouldn't have known the difference if you hadn't said that. Either way it seems to be a more interesting way to get a little exercise that doesn't involve running routes over and over.

[bringbackgold]

You would definitely notice if I tried. It is certainly more fun than running laps. That is for sure.

[realimperfect]

Now I will, I think. If that ever becomes something you do.

Though, honestly, I've never even seen people figure skate. I've heard of it, but I guess it was something of a lost sport, in my version of Earth.

[bringbackgold]

Hm. I guess if your Earth didn't need it.

You can always stop by and see.

[realimperfect]

Not a lot of time to think about figure skating when there's nuclear winter outside. I think that's a given.

When are you typically around? Provided my shift times work out I would be able to stop by.

[bringbackgold]

I'm there every afternoon. From just before 1 until 4.

[realimperfect]

That I can make work. Does Wednesday work?

[bringbackgold]

Yes.
