[ The cat knows only the expressions plastered in the face-screens of androids, but it might be just smart enough to draw a parallel.
Does it give a fuck? Of course not. And so it leaps down.
Its front paws land squarely at the center of the top of Clarke's head, while its back paws land on her forehead. No claws. It's actually not that much of a painful experience, because the cat is an expert in tumbling around, thank you very much. It is a weight on her head, but the cat is quick to slide to the floor, soundlessly and effortlessly.
And then it uses a paw to brush its whiskers for a moment, as if it had forgotten that there's a person next to it. Only after its face is in an acceptable state (it looks exactly the same) does the cat wraps around Clarke's legs, a far lower, more subdued meow coming out of it. Thanks, squishy, warm android-like being. You've been of great use. ]
