[Kagami is escorted into the recreation space hissing. This proves to do little other than result in his captors transcribe their observations in a language he doesn’t understand, and he doesn't even feel better after the fact! But he can be stupid stubborn when he puts his mind to something. More importantly, he runs on spite and being petty.]
I hope all your data gets corrupted~!
[He waves at them in what would usually be a cheerful gesture, and ego bruised and no closer to escaping, he turns his attention to the most interesting person here. To be fair, they're the only other person here. Surprisingly humanoid, at that, but ephemeral and frail.They’re pretty, and in another life and in a better mood maybe he’d flirt with them. It takes one look for Kagami to conclude that they won't be of much physical help in an escape. He fears they'd collapse if he nudged them too hard.
But they’re someone other than their shared captors, and he’s not one to turn down the opportunity to needle at people he dislikes— usually those who abuse their power and boy do the researchers who abducted him fit the bill. Their translators informed him of the goal of the study. Not that he has any reason to trust they’ll keep their word!
He’ll start by moving close to Nen. Get in their personal bubble and ooh and ahh like he’s never seen a person before. His eyes sweep up and down, appraising. He bats his lashes and plasters on his sweetest, most infuriating smile.]
Goodness, I have no idea what made them think this was wise. But I have an idea. Instead of becoming best friends, why don’t we speedrun their little experiment into the ground?

[ They don't sound so sure about this, but the air of confidence Kagami puts off is convincing enough for someone who was isolated from other people for so long. The moment of hesitation if brief and fleeting; Nenonen reaches out towards the panel. ]

[Weird! His hand and head feel kind of fuzzy. Kagami slumps and flops to the floor and next to him is a weird cat.]
no subject
And also turned into a cat. ]
Kagami...!

Up...at Nen.
Nen is taller than him, but not by that much...!]
Mrow? [He opens his mouth to speak, looks mortified by what comes out. Panicking, he floats and trying to climb Nen's arm, his tail twitching in agitation. Oh no!?! Did this have something to do with the temporal anomaly?!]
MROWWW MROW MR

Kagami is a cat and that's never happened before with their temporal anomalies and Nen doesn't know what to do with this. For a brief moment they're stuck, frozen with panic--and then he's floating and clinging to their arm and they're doing their best to keep him balanced. ]
I am sorry, I do not know what happened--no one has ever turned into a cat before! Are you okay??
no subject
He can't think like this when he's clinging onto Nen's arm and panicking. He slowly unlatches, drops down on his feet, and like the composed and rational person he is, he darts through the doorway in embarrassment.]
no subject
Kagami??? Wait for me...!
[ They can't chase after him as a human so there's no way they'll be able to keep up with a cat, but as it turns out? That doesn't matter. All the doors and halls ahead are closed. And staffed. Facility guards are waiting for him and not too much longer after that a pair of researchers approach Nenonen and tell them it's time to return to their room for a check-up and not to worry; they'll look after Kagami. ]
