Lion Head Mesa Black and orange stray cat sittin' on a fence

The woman's voice wasn't all too inviting but Conquest couldn't really complain about it, it seemed rather normal to her despite it not drawing a smile to her face now that she was given a little time to drink. She was just about to do, dip her tongue into the water, maybe even splash around a bit if given enough time until - well, she saw that look in Stryx's eyes.

Connie's own rubies scanned where her guardian's were looking at, she couldn't see whatever was upsetting her, but Connie's fur bristled in response regardless of not being able to spot the trouble. Being pushed forward, she was cautious but quick to shove her face into the water and drink up as much as possible, bobbing up and down every now and then to try and keep an eye on whatever it was Stryx was looking at, but thirsty enough to let her attention be split in half.

The hurried actions were enough for her to nearly choke on the water, the final gasp for air forcing a few uncontrolled coughs as she tried to clear her lungs from the liquid that shouldn't be there, shaking her head while awkwardly backing away from the water to go back to her guardian's side.
