Dirk is falling asleep in the Captain's quarters on the Lady Millie. He's holding a white feather in his hand before he tucks it back into place in its box.
He's half drunk on wine and shifts into his cat form.

Footsteps near Dirk.
A soft and pleasant laugh. When he opens his eyes he sees a young lady familiar to him. From a meeting one day at the front garden of Lord Suhuy's mansion.
"You kept it. Thank you."
She stands up from her crouched position. Dirk can see a simple rough looking habit, where first a white dress was. Hair still white and long.
"How are you, my friend?"

Dirk purrs and says "of course I kept it. I wanted a token of you. Why are you dressed like a corpse?"
Dirk sounds very confused and concerned. "I missed you and I am worried. I don't even know your name sweetheart."

Dio smiles she kneels down straightening her habit. She lays a hand on the black fur head of Dirk.
"My name is Dionisia. But most call me Dio. And this."
She goes over the habit with her free hand.
"Is what i wear in the convent. Since last we spoke i am still there. The hope that my parents would come collect me is fading. Perhaps they just got rid of me like so many other girls in the convent."
A sad smile.
"But you should not worry about me. I am fed, i am clothed, i can sleep. It is not a glamorous life of adventure and excitement. But it is a life. "
She scratches with her fingers.
"Any new adventures in your life?"

"Lovely Dio, I am sailing out in shadow. Just moving cargo from place to place. You are just the girl of my dreams. I wish I could rescue you."
Dirk purrs deeply and rumbles "I hope we meet again. I think of you often."

Dio frowns. "Just the girl of your dreams? We have met, yes? At Lord Suhuy's."
She sits up straight and smiles her ever enthusiastic smile
"Just moving cargo? Ah, but still in a simple task. Or something seeming small, big things can happen.
My apologies if i occupy your mind to much. I wish you no trouble."

You are so far from a burden. Some of the cargo is moved with permission some without." A deep rumble purr floats through the dream. "I keep your feather and your flask in a special box."

Dio tries to laugh when she hears it was a joke. But its far from natural.
"Not used to jokes. My apologies, in the convent jokes between the girls are more along the line of lethal pranks "
By now she goes from kneeling to laying flat on her stomach to face the big black cat.
"Sometimes cargo needs to be liberated...and liberation doesn't always happen with permission. At least that is what i heard some traveling merchants say who traded with the sisters."
Dio closes her eyes feeling the rocking of the ship. Even if it is only a dream the sensation is soothing ..
"Thank you for keeping those safe. I just hope one day we meet again in the flesh. Though dreams are nice too."
She opens her eyes and looks at the black cat next to her.
"When i ever get out how can i find you?"

"Contact me through dreams and we can find each other in shadow. If you ever need liberation talk to me. I will help you gain your freedom. I promise you no lethal pranks." Dirk purrs and leans against you with a pair of half closed eyes. "You are a special person. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I cherish you."

Dio smiles a soft smile.
"Thank you. Hm liberation. How tempting. " She rolls from her stomach to her side and leans against the big black fur body. Her eyes closed she buries her face. "Thank you." She mutters soft. "I never feel special. But knowing others do find me that. It is a nice feeling." She breathes calmly along with the rumbling pur of Dirk. A moment she is laying with Dirk enjoying, until her muscles tense and she suddenly sits up. Her cheeks flushed red.
"I am so sorry. This is not appropriate. Such closeness i am sorry. "

"You can snuggle anytime. I won't tell a soul. I rather enjoy feeling snuggled. I promise that if we meet again you can have all the snuggles you want."
Dirk says "I still have your coconut waiting for you as well." He purrs and reaches out a paw towards you.

" Thank you, such a polar opposite of my life. If someone would go for a hug, you can expect something sharp between the ribs."
She nervously plays with her hair before pushing it back.
"Well, i won't tell the sisters either. They would surely lock me up again. Contact with a man."
A soft smile she lays down next to Dirk again. "What harm can come from a dream, right? If we both enjoy the contact. Just don't tell."

"The sisters never saw me as anything but a cat. Remember?" He adds "Rest and let me protect you in this dream."
Dirk snuggles and wraps his leg around you like a mom cat hugging a kitten.

Dio nods while snuggled back up. She chuckles soft. "Very true indeed. They have only seen you as a cat. And i have not spoken a word about talking to strange men. No reason to believe i am no longer pure."
Closing her eyes. She enjoys the safety and warmth.
"The rocking of the ship. It is like a cradle. So soothing. I understand why you like sailing. "

After a while of snuggling. Dio looks up.
"You seem more comfortable in this form than your human form... or am i wrong? Is this your natural shape?"
