James was actually going through his notes while keeping and eye on the infants. He was going to have to do some research on the...what to call it? Perhaps feline side was how to refer to it? It got triggered once and the man was slightly worried about it getting triggered again, though if he could figure out how it got triggered, he could take prevent measures. Though there was no way he could do it alone, for now though leave Charlie be. The man was in a big enough pickle as it was.

"okay!" Robert called back to her.

It took a little while but he finally got all the things for the puppy. Now they just had to get the puppy.

[gre-y]

Charlie did eventually find sleep, but he woke up as soon as the front door opened. He heard a barking dog? "Is there a dog? Wh- why do I hear a dog?" He asked, sitting up. He was concerned for the kittens.


Maisie paid for all of their items and creatures, and then they started on the drive home.
"Hey guys? We're home," Maisie said happily as they walked into the door. She had put the chickens in the coop, and they were bringing the dog inside.

[anibus3]

Ears perked to the sound of barking and they twitched. For a moment, James felt something slip in his mind to the sound of the dog barking. THough shaking his head rather hard, and trying to focus, the feeling slipped away and he sighed. There was another sound though, was that laughing?

Robert was indeed laughing, happy with the puppy and actually playing a game of tag with em. Chasing the silly canine around the living room and James came down slowly.

"A dog?" James asked a tad confused with a raised brow.

[gre-y]

Maisie smiled at James and Charlie. "He really needed a dog." She said happily. "So I got some chickens, and they are all pretty healthy." She explained.

Charlie couldn't even listen, he was too busy looking at the puppy. He wanted to play with the dog too, but his belly would make it hard for him.

[anibus3]

"IT's fine." James said. "Just make sure the dog doesn't go into the babies room."

Catching the dog, Robert went over to Charlie and held em up.

"Lookie!" Robert said happily, the puppy's tail wagged as it was held up to the adult.

[gre-y]

Maisie nodded. "Of course. We'll train him, too, so he'll be gentle with all of the kids."

Charlie reached out to pet the dog. "Oh he's a handsome boy! Hey buddy!" He said happily while petting the dog. "What are you gonna name him?"

[anibus3]

(Oh idea. What if James asks for Maisie's help in exploring the feline side of himself?)

"Alright." James said, adjusting his grip on his notes he headed into the kitchen area to take a seat.

"Um....Maxwell!" Robert answered.

[gre-y]

(Sure, fine by me)

Maisie decided to follow James into the kitchen. If she was going to stay here, she felt like she should get to know James better so it wouldn't be awkward. "Hey, watcha writing?"

"Maxwell is a fine name for a dog," Charlie said. "Are you gonna teach him any tricks?"

[anibus3]

(Should we have anything happen to her or just James ending up pregnant due to all the formula still in his system?)

"I'm reviewing my notes, I have something that concerns me about all the formula I got exposed to." James replied. "It seems that....i guess the only way to put it is, there's now a feral/feline side in my mind. It got triggered once but...I think it almost got triggered again and I am concerned."

"Tricks?" Robert asked.

[gre-y]

(We could have her get pregnant, too, but we don't have to if you don't want to)

"Hmm.. If you don't mind me asking, what triggered it before?" she asked curiously. She looked up at his ears. "If you don't mind.. I just.. They look so soft," she reached up to touch his soft cat ears, giggling a little.

"Yeah, tricks! Like how to shake hands, or jump through a hoop?" He reached out to pet the dog's head. "This is gonna be the best dog ever."

[anibus3]

(Sure she can get pregnant too.)

"Well, I was pregnant at the time and Charlie rubbing my belly had triggered it." James replied.

His ears twitched to being scratched and the man felt something tug at his mind. Course he closed his eyes and shook his head. Okay...this was getting to be a problem.

"If ya don't mind...maybe you can help?" James started. "I think I almost got pulled into that mindset again. Though let's not trigger it in the house."

"Oh. Well he has to learn how to sit and shake so...sure." Robert said.

[gre-y]

(Okay ^^)

Maisie nodded. "Hmm.." She nodded. "Sure I can help, should we go outside?" She suggested. "We could go into the barn if you'd like."

Charlie grinned. "He's gonna be a cool dog." He rubbed his big belly.

[anibus3]

"The barn is good, though we should take some precautionary measures." James said as he got up.

Heading to the barn was easy, though James didn't want the same thing to happen together. Charlie would probably kill him if he got his sister's pregnant. So taking a deep breathe, he looked around the place for some rope.

"Okay, I don't know if this'll work. But just tie my wrists behind my back around the wooden post okay? It's because of this new side that...well CHarlie got pregnant with his current batch." James said as he handed her the rope and he went over to the post. "Any questions?"

"Yeah!" Robert said in glee with a smile.

(The rope won't do shit to keep him in place lol.)

[gre-y]

(Lmao oh no)

Maisie smirked as she tied him up. "This is a little extreme. I'm not sure we have to go this far, but alright," she said, tightening the knot. Although it was loose enough that it wouldn't leave nasty red burn marks from the rope rubbing against his wrists. "Okay that's a good not. Now.. what do you want me to do, exactly?" She asked, standing across from him.

"Me and James are gonna get some sheep. Maybe we should train Maxwell to help herd the sheep?" He suggested. He'd been trying to get the boy more comfortable around him by talking to him.

[anibus3]

"I just don't want things to get out of control as they clearly did with Charlie." James explained. "WEll...we can try...scratching my ears again, I think I almost went into it due to that in the kitchen."

Robert just wasn't too comfortable around others yet. He was still used to being in a small space with just one or two people around and now he was just use to Maisie.

"Shibas can herd?" Robert asked.

[gre-y]

"Hmm. Okay, seems resonable," she shrugged, then took a step forward to scratch behind both ears. They were very soft. She giggled a bit while touching them.

"I'm not sure, but we can try," Charlie suggested. He yawned and stretched a little bit. He did't know James and his sister had gone into the barn.

[anibus3]

James could immedeatly feel the mind sets swap places and he shuddered, only to start purring as the feline side took over. His pupils slitted and there was a glow to his eyes. Course that wasn't enough for the feline, there was a instinct there. Something of a breeding instinct, even though their 'kittens' were a little older, they weren't satisfied with that. THe rope was easy to snap off and they pounced at Maisie, if succesful they would end up in one of the barn stalls on the hay there.

Robert set Maxwell down as they started to leave the house. A shiba inu being a herding dog? IT sounded neat, though the puppy wanted to see the farm and it ran off.

"Maxwell!!" Robert called chasing after it, though the dog went nowhere near the barn.

[gre-y]

Maisie was just petting him, noticing his eyes changing. Seems strange, but she wasn't frightened. Not yet at least.
The rope swiftly snapped and all of the sudden James was on top of her. "James," she growled, trying to push him away. "Get- get off me!" She tried to squirm away from him.

Charlie smiled, watching the two go outside to play. He settled back on the couch and decided to get a little rest. He gently rubbed his belly.

[anibus3]

Oh but it was useless. The feline side was clearly in control and the feline wasn't keen on letting her go. The issue being that neither of em would get out of this barn without some...new things.

Robert had gone after maxwell, calling after the dog. Though it had doubled back and went back into the house, attempting to jump onto the couch but failing. They fell down and started to whimper and Robert came over to the puppy.

"Aw Maxwell, it's okay." Robert said as he picked em up.

An hour had passed before James came too again and he groaned. Sitting up in the barn stall and rubbing his head. Okay....that wasn't good. Course he had yet to notice that he had more markings on his skin in the form of tabby stripes. Course there would be more than just that.

[gre-y]

Maisie tried to get away as soon as she could, and when she did, she hid in one of the bedrooms. She didn't want to talk about what had just happened.

"Aw is he okay? Poor pupper. Hey maybe you should feed him. He might be hungry," Charlie said, reaching out to stroke the small dog.
