Kitty Cat Kill Sat - Chapter 49
🕑 Added 2022-05-06 18:24:08 +0000 UTCThis one is short, different, and mostly just me messing with formatting in a way that I suspect will read better as part of the story and not on its own. So I apologize for that, but also there will be another chapter soon and I'm writing faster than normal anyway, so I counterbalance that apology.
