Demitri was very firm about setting milk out for the brownies.  He wasn't sure his mother beleived him, but he believed Tomo so that ended that.  Plus, he did not was to get on the bad side of the brownies.  He even put a gloop of honey in the milk. Better safe than sorry.

"Ok Tomo, this milk is for brownies, not Tomos"

Tomo ignored that remark.  As if he would descend to the level of stealing milk from fairy kin.  So he changed the subject.

*i'm worried. too many unnatural things around.  smell funny*

"I think my mother is worried to.  Her smile isn't as big as normal and her forehead is crinkled."

*need to go out.  something big happening*

"I'm not allowed to let you out by yourself.  And I'm not allowed out after dark."

*i won't be alone.  Cee will be with me*

"That's ok."

Dimitri let his kitten out, then carefully relocked the door.
