"Wow, that’s really cool of them." Eyebrows raised, Norah gingerly picks up the bag and peeks inside. “Oh wow, these are so soft!” she breathes, grabbing the pair of pyjama pants first and throwing them over one shoulder to change into later. She crouches down, resting the bag on the ground to...

It takes a second for the quip about more pets to sink in, but Norah snorts loudly once she gets it. "Good point, Kev!" she nods with smiling mock solemnity, although a thought then occurs to her: "hey, do you suppose Management owns this place or do we have to get renter's insurance?" This is...

“Ohh yeah. Extremely, extremely… spooky,” Norah agrees. She’s frowning at a bookcase where one of the shelves is tightly packed with her favorite books (and a couple on her “to be read” list which don’t look like they’ve been touched yet), almost none of which she’d previously had the space to...

Calling out a coffee order does the trick: Norah’s ears perk up and draw her attention back to Cathal. He holds Sue triumphantly aloft, now condensed down to a fat, grumpy chicken. “Heyyyyy!” She throws her hands up in celebration, still not having let go of Harper’s hand. “Success!”

"Ah, Harper!" Norah's eyes go wide and she reaches out, turning Harper's wave into a high-five. "I'm certain he does remember, so maybe we don't want him to notice we're here? And that's why we sent Cathal over there by himself?" She keeps Harper's hand in hers and turns them toward the windows...

Norah and the others are within eavesdropping distance, trying (perhaps not very well) to blend in with the tourists between a popcorn vendor and a copse of trees. Much as she would like to listen in, Kevin seemed extremely overstimulated the whole walk over and perhaps even more so now as they...

“Oh! That could work.” Norah looks to the flying saucer-shaped tower several blocks away, only just visible beyond the skyscrapers in between it and the hill they now stand on. After a pause she continues, “I want to make a Wizard of Oz joke but I think I’ll hate myself if I do, so we should...

“True. But then what will we do with it?” She considers. “I suppose we could apologize for yesterday’s kerfuffle, but…” Norah glances in the direction of where Kevin tossed aside the pillow and is reminded of the emotional honesty of some of the cats in their crew. “I don’t know that we could...

She watches Kevin’s dismount with light concern which increases to significant when he starts screaming into the pillow. “Should we like… do something about that?” Norah murmurs to Vidar before being pulled into the conversation about a new smoothie. “I think that sounds absolutely delicious,”...

At this comment Norah makes an unintentional choking noise that is somewhere between incredulous laugh and utter disbelief.

It is a surprise when Kevin overtakes her, babbling something Norah doesn’t quite catch. It’s an even bigger surprise, then, when he flings something at the T. rex that, on second glance, appears to be the velvet ropes from the queue at the museum. When the makeshift lasso actually hooks its...

I wonder if anybody's filming this, Norah thinks as she completes her punch by sticking a perfect three-point landing. Because that was definitely the coolest thing I have ever done. She whips her head up, checking eagerly to see if she might have actually knocked the dino off its feet. A huge...

Watching her brilliant teammates use their incredible powers on this beast and getting absolutely nowhere with it, Norah has the distinct impression that it's sure turning out to be One Of Those Days™. All other thoughts go out of her head, though, when the Tyrannosaurus rex starts charging...

It doesn’t take long at all for them to catch up with the others. Norah stops behind Vidar, the electricity in the storm filling her with a buzzing, nervous energy. She looks at the phantasmagoric dinosaur with eyes the size of dinner plates, her tail swishing in excitement. Hands on hips as...

"Little water never hurt anybody, Vidar, you'll live," she teases. Norah is grateful becoming a catgirl didn't make her hate getting wet, as she's always loved the rain. But she doesn't want to get in a fight in her work clothes either, so she runs back and does a quick change, pulling on a...
