[Open] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
WHO: Luisa and YOU
WHERE: Around the city
WHEN: March 28-31, with some closed prompts later
WHAT: Luisa eats a lot and is followed around by cats. These two things may or may not be related.
WARNINGS: Maybe possession? Nothing else I can think of, but will update if that changes
A (I keep it caged but I can't control it)
[ Luisa feels like she just can't stop eating.
She isn't entirely sure why, but one morning she'd woken up completely famished, and it seems like no matter how much she eats she just can't get enough. She's grateful that Julieta still cooks large meals at home, but as much as she tries to control herself she knows that her family is going to notice (or probably already has) that she ends up eating all the leftovers afterwards. She's always had a healthy appetite, needing fuel to help use her strength throughout the day, but she doesn't usually eat this much.
Maybe it was because she was working out more? That's never been a problem before, but she doesn't entirely rule out that possibility.
But even when she isn't really doing anything, the hunger still seems to burn a hole in her stomach. She can sometimes stave it off with a snack, but it only makes the hunger more manageable and never ever really goes away. Fortunately there are enough places that sell food throughout the city, so when she feels the hunger creeping back she can slip inside the closest shop or eatery to purchase something to eat. It's not ideal, though; the little bit of money from odd jobs here and there that she's earned for her family is starting to trickle away because she can't seem to stop being hungry.
It's also a problem when she's out and there are no places to get food immediately. She finds that if she goes for more than a few hours without eating anything she starts to get a headache, and the hunger becomes too intense to focus. Occasionally when the feeling is at its worse, she stumbles to find a place to sit down, and just hopes she doesn't just collapse right then and there while waiting for it to pass, before hurrying to find something to eat again. ]
B (It's hiding in the dark, it's teeth are razor sharp)
[ Luisa's appetite isn't the only strange thing that's happening.
Those that are out and about the city might catch sight of Luisa down the street, or coming in or out of a shop. They might also notice that it seems that she's being followed...
By cats.
Sometimes it's just one or two cats. Sometimes there are quite a few of them. And sometimes it almost seems like there's a long line of them following her down the sidewalk, or cutting between buildings or on rooftops just to trail after her.
And it's possible that it might be because Luisa seems to have food pretty often. Once in a while someone might catch Luisa sitting somewhere, feeding the group of cats that happen to be around her at the time. But there are also moments when she enters a store that the cats just seem to...wait there? No amount of shooing gets them to leave, and any threat of violence has them scattering only temporarily before they return, waiting outside the store until Luisa reappears, and they move to follow her once again.
It's...definitely odd. ]

[ She had really hoped to have found a job by now, even a part-time one, but it's mostly just been a couple of odd jobs here and there. So with less work to do, she had more time for extra workouts.
And sure, it's easy for her to say that she's not pushing herself, despite the fact that she has in the past. But she genuinely feels like she's done far less than she'd done back in the Encanto. ]
no subject
Maybe you should just rest today? Could just be an off day.
no subject
[ Normally she would try to put up a bit more of a fight, insisting that she was okay and do more. But right now...she's just hungry, and a little tired. ]
no subject
[She's not really sure what to do about the cats, though.]
no subject
[ Luisa winces suddenly, placing a hand to her head. ]
I think I just really need something to eat right now.
[ She probably did need help getting home too, but if she didn't eat something soon she might not be able to even make it there. ]
no subject
[She starts to move, glancing back at Luisa to make sure her sister wasn't going to pass out on her while she was. But she eventually dips into a nearby convenience store and grabs a few snacks. And one sandwich, which she hope will help. She pays for the stuff and heads back to where Luisa is sitting.]
no subject
When Mirabel returns, she at least manages a weak smile. ]
Gracias.
no subject
Of course, I'm not gonna let my sister just pass out in the middle of the city. We should probably get you home after this?
[She offers a smile, but there's worry under it.]
no subject
Which...they both knew was not the case, and it's really bothering her. ]
Yeah, that's probably a good idea.
[ She'd tried to avoid home for a bit, because she didn't want to eat all the food that had been there. But she's starting to worry about being out too long, for fear she might just pass out in the street. ]
