Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Happy birthday.
Today is your birthday? Well then, you ought to come back to my room for a spell.
Lord Rivera in particular would like to wish you a happy birthday. You wouldn't want to disappoint him, would you?
And Lord Mukuta says he'll let you play with his paws. You've left quite an impression on those guys, you know.

2

Your birthday has rolled around once again... Well then, let's head to my room at once. Lord Rivera and the others are waiting.
Heh heh heh! You should be pleased! This year, Lord Vapaus has given you permission to play with his paw pads!
As far as I know, Lord Vapaus has never let anyone touch his paw pads before...
Congratulations. You have been rewarded for a full year of hard work!

3

The time has come! It is your birthday and we shall celebrate!
Please follow me to my quarters where Lord Rivera and the others await...
Hm? Oh, my apologies. I suppose I was getting a little ahead of myself. I was surprised to learn this, you see.
It would seem that for this year's birthday gift, you shall get to play with Lady Aselia's paw pads and tummy!
It's wonderful! It truly is... We've been watching you this past year and your effort has not gone unnoticed.
Please keep it up!

4

Happy birthday. What do you say we head to my quarters?
Hahaha, I'd like to ask for your careful attention. Lady Rivera and the others would like you to act as their pillow today.
There's no need to be nervous. All that you need to do is lie on your side and delight in your time together.
You'll be filled with true satisfaction, a feeling to reward all your efforts and dispel your frustrations.
That's excellent, (Captain). May this serve to help you through the next year.

5

Happy birthday.
Once again, Lord Rivera and the others have prepared a gift for you. I pray that its contents do not shock you!
Seeing the lengths you go to for every mission and how well you take care of all of us...
The cats have decided to combine all their might into giving you a massive backrub.
When I learned of their intent, I stood there dazed in utter shock.
The mere thought of those soft and fluffy paw pads tending to your fatigued body must be so endearing.
(Captain), please come to my room as soon as you've finished changing into appropriate attire!

Happy New Year Cutscenes

1

Happy New Year.
Have you seen a... hand warmer? They're a mystical object from a distant country, I've heard.
According to rumors, it warms up right in your palm with just a gentle squeeze. And in any weather!
Heh... I'd love to lay eyes on one. That kind of magic is fascinating indeed.

2

Happy New Year, (Captain). I've done it! I've obtained a heating pad!
Its warmth will penetrate even the coldest of hearts... Heh! I can't wait to experience it!
Hm? Why haven't I used it yet, you ask?
Because Lord Rivera is curled up on it right now, of course! I wouldn't dream of letting my legs intrude on his space!

3

Hm... Yet another challenge to overcome in my training...
Oh, (Captain)! Happy New Year. May the upcoming year together be full of blessings.
I know! Why don't you join us for a game? Lord Rivera and the others are playing Pin the Tail on the Donkey with me. But as you can see...
(Captain) looks over to find Lord Rivera and the other cats rubbing against the drawing on the wall, occasionally pawing at the picture.
How can one properly attach an appendage in such a state as this? Perhaps that answer is the key to discovering inner freedom!
Without a doubt... I, Dante, shall show you how to master this metaphorical game!

4

Dante is curled up on top of his bed.
Oh, if it isn't (Captain). You have a puzzled expression on your face.
Are you familiar with how cats sometimes curl up into balls?
Lord Rivera and the others expertly make their bodies round and then sleep in that position.
I'm attempting it myself now... It puts one's heart at ease and brings a feeling of peace quite unlike anything else.
It seems that Lord Rivera and the others particularly enjoy curling up into balls when there's a heater around.
Perfect timing. Would you like to try it out together, (Captain)?

5

My goodness, what a divine sight I behold...
Lady Aselia picked up a ball of yarn that rolled out of the basket and onto the ground. She now unwinds atop the bookshelf with the yarn on her forehead.
The consummate juxtaposition of white and orange, the exquisite form of her slender waist and its ivory texture...
Is indeed quite a sight for any feline-loving eyes!
But why... Why does it tickle my fancy so?
I must understand why! (Captain), won't you observe Lady Aselia by my side so that we can uncover this mystery together?

Valentine's Day Cutscenes

1

So Valentine's Day is here...
Hm? You've brought chocolate? Indeed, I thank you for your kindness.
However... I'm afraid this is bad for the health of Lord Rivera and the others. Which means I shall have to consume it alone...
Oh, what shall I do?
Is this conflict in my heart yet another trial I must overcome?

2

Chocolate, you say? Hrm... It is that time of year again... The annual challenge...
I'd like to give some to Lord Rivera and the others, but I cannot. It's bad for their health... But I cannot eat it by myself, either!
Nonetheless, I must not let your kindness go to waste!
What should I do? What in the skies should I do?
Ngaaah!

3

The time has come again... To face the trial known as chocolat, where the flavors of sweet gratitude and bitter conflict clash!
Chocolate!
Looking back, it has plagued me every year... To indulge in the snack all alone, as Lord Rivera and the others are unable to consume it.
But I have finally found a solution! I won't shy away anymore. Bring the chocolate to me...
What? Not chocolate, but a chocolate-flavored snack? Made of ingredients that even Lord Rivera and the others can partake?
...
How liberating!

4

Ooh! More chocolate-flavored snacks this year...
I wouldn't expect any less from you, (Captain). Your fearless thinking has paved you a path through this trial by chocolate.
I'll make it my duty to pass this on to Lord Rivera and the others.
Hm? Me? Of course I'll have some. After Lord Rivera and the others are through, that is.
I plan to savor them while reading. I really must thank you.

5

Dante: You have treats for my feline friends this year as well, (Captain)?
Words alone cannot express my gratitude.
You're free to dine ahead of us, Lord Rivera.
Rivera: Meow.
Rivera dips his head into the bowl Dante places before him and begins chewing.
Merow.
Dante: My goodness! Lord Rivera is absolutely overcome with gratitude!
His joy is my joy! Aaah, a truly mirthful day has come upon us!
Thank you so, so, so very much, (Captain)!

1

Heheh... In return for your steadfast dedication, I have chosen a most appropriate gift.
Hairballs. Bequeathed by Lord Rivera and company.
Is it not a most exquisite honor? I once crafted a scarf from these. May you too find some use in them.

2

Hehehe... You should be happy, (Captain). Lord Mukuta chose your gift this year.
Now then, please accept this mouse as a reward for your hard work lately. Heh! Even I'm a little jealous.
Honored, aren't you? You're free to use it however you like. I hope it helps you in your travels!

3

Ha-ha... I've been waiting for you, (Captain). I have a gift for you again this year.
But to think Lord Vapaus would be so generous... In anticipation of this day, he prepared an item that even I have not had the privilege of using.
So please accept this cardboard box. The large hole on the side is a window that you are free to use.
You must feel so honored! I know there is danger waiting on our journey ahead, but I know this box will help lift your spirits.

4

Ah, it's you, (Captain). I have this year's gift for you here in my hands.
Hmm... I'm actually a bit nervous. But in fact, the elegant Lady Aselia unfailingly gives this as a present every year.
Please take this bag, and handle it with care. Inside is...
Matatabby.
Hah, it seems that even you, (Captain), are speechless before it. I suppose that should come as no surprise.
This is the ultimate honor, isn't it? The path ahead of you is long. So when you're feeling down, don't hesitate to have a pinch of matatabby.

5

(Captain), the lords and ladies have something for you this year as well.
I have every faith that you'll love it. You're the only person to receive this gift other than me.
It goes to show how much respect they have for you. Of course, it is no different for me.
Ah, sorry. I don't mean to preface the act with such a long spiel.
Without further ado, I present you with Lord Rivera's whiskers. As he has grown new ones, these old whiskers have fulfilled their role.
Perhaps you will find a use for them.

Today is Halloween? So that's why my friends are wearing costumes.
But I live by my own rules. I have no interest in following everyone else.
A wet blanket? No, I just do things my way, that's all!

2

Dante: Ah, Halloween... Last year I was called a killjoy, but regardless, I feel no desire to wear a disguise.
It goes against my code. Sorry, but let me live freely.
Rivera: Meooow!
Dante: What? I... I suppose that's true... I am indeed free to change the rules as I see fit...
Very well, Lord Rivera! I shall don a disguise next year! One that embodies the very spirit of freedom!

3

Agh... A costume... What do I do?
I cannot figure this out on my own...
But I promised Lord Rivera last year I'd stretch my creativity for a costume of true self expression!
I need to think. Think!
But one who is not free cannot fully unleash themselves...
An evil spirit. Or an animal. Or a famous person. Or perhaps... Oh, it's no use! If only I could think of something you don't see every year...

4

Dante: At last I've found it! A truly unconventional costume in which all of my abilities are manifest.
Do I appear the same as normal? I suppose I do, and that's the very point.
Costumes are meant to disguise one person as another. So the most real and innovative costume of all is surely one in which a person looks indistinguishable from his uncostumed state.
This is the best answer that I've devised—a masterful and original costume unbound by vulgar custom.
Rivera: Mrrrow.
Dante: Hm? What's most important about the holiday is to enjoy oneself and amuse others?
T-that may be true... I've been so focused on my costume that the festivities have all but escaped my mind!
My efforts are still sorely lacking... Next year will be the one in which I show you a truly impressive costume!

5

Dante: That's not it, (Captain)! I was most certainly prepared for today!
But when I went to change, my costume was nowhere to be seen.
I fail to see why anyone would want to upset my Halloween.
Rivera: Meow.
Dante: Ah! That's my costume... Where did you come upon that, Lord Rivera?
Rivera: Merow.
Dante: You hid it as a way of pranking me?
A prank, you say? What a profound notion!
So I see Halloween is about more than just costumes...
I could not foresee such freedom present on this day. I have much to learn.

1

What is the meaning of this! What kind of person would do such a thing?
We prepared a holiday feast for Lord Rivera and the others, but it's all been eaten! We must apprehend the monster responsible!
Ah... Pardon me, Lord Rivera, but you have a little cream on your mouth. Let me get that for you.

2

Nrgh... What an outrage! What a folly!
Last year, someone ate the feast I prepared for Lord Rivera...
And I've been foiled this year as well! The gifts have all been stolen!
(Captain), we must apprehend the culprit!
Hm? Lord Rivera? What's that cushion in your mouth?
Oh my! You retrieved it from the thief already? You work quickly! I should take notes!

3

(Captain)... What should I do?
A few moments ago, one of the younger members of our crew gave me a special homemade cake...
But I cannot eat it! How could I possibly devour a cake shaped exactly like Lord Rivera's exquisite face?
But I can't allow my fellow crew member's efforts and good intentions go to waste! I couldn't bear seeing a frown on that precious face! What must I do to pass this torturous trial?
Aghhh!

4

Agh! How terrible!
I went to decorate the tree to make the younger crew members happy...
But look under the tree. Someone's pulled down all my ornaments!
(Captain), help me search for the parties responsible! I'm sure that they're somewhere around here...
The scent of tree is coming from... If it isn't Lord Rivera and the others!
I can't believe... They're volunteering to serve as replacement ornaments? Aah, how merciful they are!

5

Okay, every window is shut. I also made sure to patrol the perimeter of the room as an additional safety measure.
That should just about do it. Now the youngsters in the crew can be assured of a safe holiday.
Hm? Lord Rivera? Why do you seat yourself before the fireplace?
You're watching guard to make sure no intruders come in from the chimney?
How gracious you are, Lord Rivera! Ah, your foresight never fails to impress!
Hm? You wish to take your rest now?
Worry not, for I will be here to stand guard in your place. Please enjoy your nap.

Getting Ready for Halloween

Rivera inspires Dante to put on a festival where people can appreciate cats for Halloween. As the day approaches, the cats note Dante's enthusiasm and peculiar getup. Freiheit shows up looking for his children, warming the hearts of his fellow felines.



As Halloween approaches, the crew of the Grandcypher prepares for the festivities.

Rivera: Meow.

Dante: Ah, Lord Rivera, I was just about to call on you.

Rivera: Meooow.

Dante: Indeed, I was able to think of a project to undertake for Halloween, all thanks to your advice.

Dante: Hmm... What in the skies should I do for Halloween?

Dante: I decided to participate in the festivities this year, but i have squandered many a day pondering my precise course of action...

Rivera crawls into Dante's lap and begins grooming himself

Rivera: ...

Dante: Oh? Did i wake you, Lord Rivera? You have my deepest apologies.

Rivera: Merow.

Dante: What! The most important aspect of a celebration is to enjoy oneself... while simultaneously creating a pleasurable experience for others?

Rivera: Merow...

Dante: Oh? And it would be most preferable if you and the others cats were present?

Dante: Yes, I understand. Let us conceive an event that can be enjoyed be cats and people alike!

Dante: I've decided to hold a festival that we can enjoy together. It will serve as an opportunity for you to be shown the gratitude you have earned.

Dante: I was hoping that you and the others would __

Dante: Ah, Lord Mukuta and Lady Aselia.

Dante: Lady Afaka, Lord Vapaus, and Lady Mewmew as well!

Dante: I'm honored that you would all go out of your way to spare me the effort of gathering you.

Vapaus: Meow...

Dante: Yes indeed. I was hoping to ask if you would attend the festival that I've planned for Halloween.

Aselia: Ryeow.

Dante: Oh no, I would never ask you to do something so taxing it would involve you taking the stage, but nothing more.

Dante: Once the event begins, I would only ask that you be your esteemed selves.

Dante: Just by doing that, you will provide guidance to those of us who still lack your understanding of freedoom.

Dante: Needless to say, you will be compensated for your trouble.

Afaka: Meyaow.

Mewmew: Mew, mew!

Dante: Haha, I'm glad to hear that you look forward to it.

Dante: Halloween is yet some days away, so I will be sure to have everything prepared perfectly.

Mukuta: Myeow.

Dante: Oh? You're curious about my attire?

Dante: Since we'll be conducting a festival in your honor, I thought to bring my appearance as close to yours as I could.

Dante: As this is a rare occasion, it seemed like a good idea to do something special.

Rivera: Meow.

Dante: Quite right. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

With that, Dante bows deeply to the cats.

Dante: Now then, my mentors, I must take my leave to begin the preparations.

Dante: I thank you again for gracing me with your presence.

Dante walks away, leaving only the cats on the deck.

Rivera: Hm, a festival, huh?

Afaka: I wonder what that compensation will be? I hope it's nice.

Mukuta: Never mind the festival, though I'm sure that will be entertaining too.

Mukuta: More importantly, that was quite the getup that Dante's walking around in.

Aselia: He seemed to like it though.

Afaka: He had paint all over his face!

Mukuta: I think that was supposed to make it look like one of ours.

Afaka: I think growing fur would have been a better idea.

Afaka: After all, all of us have different faces, don't we?

Afaka: Fur is much more important.

Vapaus: I thought it made him look even more stuffy than usual!

Vapaus: That hat more than anything else really.

Mukuta: I think it's called a "top hat."

Mewmew: I don't like it!

Mewmew: I can't climb on his head!

Rivera: I believe that the top hat is generally considered to be a gentleman's attire.

Rivera: Therefore, Dante's likely wearing one to show respect for us.

Vapaus: Huh... I see.

Mewmew: I don't care about gentlemen! Dante's head is for me to climb on!

Aselia: Oh, but didn't that fluffy stuff by his collar seem nice too?

Aselia: I bet it would be quite pleasant to curl up in there.

Afaka: Agreed! It seemed so fluffy and soft!

Mewmew: Fluffy?

Aselia: Yes, I'm sure of it. Why don't you try climbing up there next time?

Mewmew: Okay! I'll climb on Dante's fluff!

Mukuta: For goodness' sake... I sure hope nobody's tired of doting on Mew, cause she sure isn't tired of it yet.

Freiheit: Damn! Where in the skies are they?

Vapaus: What's up Freiheit!

Vapaus: Hey, have you seen Dante's new getup yet?

Freiheit: Dante?

Freiheit: Oh yeah. I know he's doing something, but I haven't seen him yet.

Freiheit: I've got more important things to worry about right now.

Freiheit: Have you guys seen them? Have they been here at some point?

Afaka: What are you talking about? Are you playing hide and seek?

Freiheit: No, I'm...

Freiheit: I'm looking for my runts! Have you seen them?

Mukuta: Oh, your kids.

Aselia: I haven't seen them, so I don't think they're up here.

Freiheit: I see... Sorry to bother you.

Freiheit: For goodness' sake... I take my eyes off the brats for one second...

Vapaus: There he goes.

Aselia: He seems pretty busy.

Mukuta: You know, seeing Freiheit being driven up the wall by the difficulty of child-rearing is...

Vapaus: Kind of funny!

Afaka: He's such a good dad.

Aselia: I agree. He always seems harried, but I think he enjoys it too.

Rivera: Indeed. That is the form of happiness that he reached after many tribulations.

The cats find their hearts warmed by Freiheit's new lifestyle as they watch him dash around in search of his kids.
