The milk bar stands tall and proud before the Lazy Lake shore, surprisingly well put together considering the strained resources of Cat Town- it's hardly crooked at all! Unfortunately, despite its impressive stature, the building is as bare as can be, presently colored the drab brown of the wooden planks it's composed of. A small group of felines in plastic toy hardhats and denim overalls are busily hauling about paint buckets and brushes of varying size, the Mayor herself, Cookies, overseeing the construction team nearby. She doesn't seem to be actively participating. How lazy!
Due to having absolutely nothing to do today, no Zephyr jobs currently assigned to her, Illera just walks on up to the Milk Bar. Looks over the drab building, tail swaying about behind her, the vixen smirks. Speaks to the mayor. While having no idea it's the mayor. "So. Painting a building. Can't be that hard, right?"
Soon after the vixen a pale looking human appears, wearing a bare-shouldered crimson blouse and gray capris trousers. Felictus arrives near the group of cats, giving the structure in front of them a glance before looking back at the cats. "So, too lazy to do anything artistic I see? I hope I can help you with that. Any certain themes you want us to adhere too?" the vampire said with their melodic voice with an obvious cheeky tone in it.
shi smiles as shi approaches the little cat people the arachne speaking gently to them before approaching the building, looking it over not noticing the others till she reaches down for a bucket almost bumping into the vixen "oh sorry i didn't see you down there" offering a hand "I hope we can work well together" bending hir knees slightly though almost taking out one of the other volunteers in the process
Skade saunters in from the south. Clad in her usual short black leather jacket with a white bikini-top underneath and a pair of low-slung red denims. And of course, a pair of heels on her feet. Seems she's taken on a decidedly more feline form today to go with her outfit. Almost a necessity when dealing with cat town. Though even so, the girl can't help but stay mostly human due to her peculiar nanites. "Well well, Cooks! Hard at work, I see! I guess you can't steal artistic talent though. Still, place has potential!" the redhead says as she places a hand on her hip and looks around. "Now, who do I have to kill to get a glass of milk first?" she finally says, licking her red-painted lips.
Cookies offers Illera a sideways glance, smirking. "I'd paint, but the boys here decided they wanted to run a contest for the PR, and it would hardly be fair of me to join it- I'd win," she purrrs out bemusedly. The construction-cats set the supplies up in convenient spots next to the building, then promptly join their Mayor in lazing about. They all retrieve small sandwiches from under their hats and munch away. Cookies glances about at the agents arriving, offering them each a broad smile. "Welcome, one 'n all, to CAT TOWN!"
%tShe gestures towards the bare bar. "Unfortunately, we spent all our creative energy on interior design, and have a case of the lazies. We would /prefer/ you stick to feline related themes," she explains, rolling a hand in gesture, "but I mean, if you wanna make something unrelated that's too awesome to deny, by all means!" She shoots Skade a playful glare, though she can't help but smile wryly. "Me. I am that person. You do the work, you earn the milk. Our cooks are already hard at work, so your culinary reward will be brought about SWIFTLY, and JUSTLY. Now, get to work, people! I ain't payin' you to stand around and look pretty! In fact, I ain't payin' you at all!"
%tThe supplies themselves seem to be brushes made for mutants of varying size and shape, along with big buckets of just about any color one could ask for- even a couple cans of spraypaint. It's a perfect pile of creative tools for all-purpose painting, one's only limit being their imagination!
Illera isn't being payed and doesn't need to be paid. Sets about gathering up supplies. For painting. Gives only a small nod to the large Deamona who nearly bumped into her. Isn't concerned. Looks over the assortment of stuff she aquired. Starts plotting. Evilly. Or not evilly. Depends on the others. "WEll, I've no ideas..." Not creative. WAits for others to do stuff.
Felictus shrugs and flashes a smirk to the cats, "Translation: We just want to laze about and do nothing. Eh?" the vampire says teasingly, before moving towards building, grabbing a number of brushes and setting a some of the assorted paint buckets near them. Felictus holds a hand with a brush up, sizing the side they chose, before looking back and saying, "So feline themes, yes? Do you want me to stick to cats or add lions nad tigers and other felines?"
Deamona nods as shi picks up hir stuff, "hmmm cat stuff sure i can work with that" the arachne nodding to hir self before getting to work giving the cats another glance, the arachne licking hir lips before turning away mummbeling to hir self under hir breath "help ...not eat" as shi starts to paint
Skade is a great many things, but an artist isn't reaaaally among them. Still, she'd be damned if she wouldn't give it a go! Stepping forwards, she grabs herself a brush and a mixing board. "Alright.." she says to herself as she gazes at the piece of wall she's chosen for her masterpiece. She stares at it for awhile before finally she decides to simply dip the tips of her fingers into some of the black paint. Extending her small claws, she draws four lines, like cat scratchmarks across part of the wall. "A start.. definetly catlike. Now, let's see here.."
The Mayor nods towards Felictus. "Lions, tigers- but not bears, oh my- really, anything feline. Doesn't even have to explicitly be cats. We like pictures of fish and milk and things, too." The sandwich-chewing cats watch the painters intently. A couple of them smile and point at Skade's scratchmarks as they chatter amongst themselves, Deamona getting a couple odd glances from cats who almost hear what she's mumbling! "Finger painting is encouraged, if you feel like it! In particular, I'd personally like to see all of you put your handprints in paint next to your murals when you're finished," Cookies explains.
Illera glances at the Mayor, noting the 'anything feline' bit... she gets a plan. Starts painting. A very small barbed cat dong on the wall. Extremely simple. And not exactly easy to see. Would need to squint to make out what it is. Given how small it is, be very easy to cover. Which she doesn't do. Instead, moves on to painting an actual cat. Not a pussy. A cat. With the paint. Black paint. Because, lack of creativity.
Deamona stands back as shi finishes the bottom of hir art, nodding at the slight 3d effect of hir grass, the arachne having spun some of hir webbing into hir paint mix as she went the silky strands adding some texture to it, "heh if old mikey could see me now, and he said I wouldn't do anything as nice as that church roof thing he did" the arachne oblivous to the odd looks shi was getting as shi added the next layer to hir work this time adding some slivery strands to it, curling them out of the grass to look like a furry tail
