Quaxo watched the groups leave the train station, a million thoughts and emotions running through his mind. He sighed, and without another word took himself away from the group a little. He didn't go far, just far enough to be able to think.
He sat down on the cold platform and watched the activity in the station, although he wasn't really focusing. His mind was going over everything, why he'd left, why he came back, whether he should have come back at all.

Of course, a certain young kit didn't know when another cat was deep in thought or not. For now, what Leathik was concerned about was his own well-being... fun-wise, anyway. The little space inbetween Quaxo and the rest of the tribe gave him the perfect distance to sneak up on the tom and try pouncing on his tail.
Crouched low a few feet behind the tuxedo cat, the little striped tabby flicked his tail from left to right. Eying the similar black appendage coming from Quaxo, the kitten soon leapt forward and clasped his little paws around his tailtip.

Quaxo yelped and jumped to his feet when something grabbed his tail, startling him out of his reverie. Or he tried to, but because his tail was caught on something, he half-fell back to the ground. He turned around to see a small striped kitten clinging to his tail.

The kitten mewled with wide eyes at the sudden jump. Slowly letting go of the tail, he backed up while holding his tail back behind him. Hoping that the black and white tom didn't try grabbing at his tail, Leathik sat down and looked at him. His coal-black eyes looked at him. What will happen next?
"Mew?"

"What was that for?" Quaxo asked the kitten, a little annoyed that he'd been interrupted from his thoughts, although perhaps a distraction was what he needed right now.
He hesitated, not wanting to frighten the kitten any further.

The annoyance in the cat's voice made him back up a little bit. Lowering his ears with a little shame, Leathik padded up to sit beside Quaxo. He purred a little bit, then looked at the tom. Were things alright?

Quaxo sighed, and looked down at the kitten, offering him a small apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry, you just startled me," he finally said, "I'm just not feeling myself today."

The sigh and gentle speech made the tomkit feel more comfortable. Gently nuzzling Quaxo's arm, Leathik flicked his tail from side to side.

Quaxo smiled softly and ruffled Leathik's headfur. He wasn't sure what to say to the kitten, he wondered why Leathik had bothered to come over to him.

Another moment barely passed before he let out a little meow. His right ear twitched as his headfur fell back into place, and Leathik leaned his chin on the tom's shoulder. "Meew?"
Wasn't there anything else Quaxo could do, aside from be sad and kinda' half-happy?

Quaxo turned to look at Leathik.
"Are you bored?" he asked the tomkit, feeling that way himself. It had been anti-climactic, his return to the Jellicles, despite not knowing what he was going to find never mind what welcome to expect.

Nodding, Leathik let his chin playfully hit the tom's shoulder repeatedly. Quaxo's point-of-chin-landing was licked before the tomkit stepped back. Crouched down like a kitten would be, he grinned. His tail was already twitching in anticipation as he waited to see what the tuxedo cat would do.
