Ollie seemed surprised, "Elliot let him mow you over? That's unusual." He actually laughed, "He's trained him really well, I mean. I guess he is still an adolescent." He went to lean against the shelf instead of eyeing the same book titles over and over and over. "Chai and Nosey are my cats though. They must've been holed up in my room, 'cause they love attention. Well, Chai does anyway, Nosey is a weirdo..."
He dug his phone out of his pocket. It was picture time, the time for pictures.
"They're really silly looking too," Chai being a calico munchkin and Nosey being an incredibly spindly almost-too-skinny black cat, her fur a void among the bright yellow eyes. Without them, there'd be little to no indication of where her face was, considering the picture featured her curled up in a small dumpling of a ball. "I mean, when you compare them to one another."

He snorted, "Well that's what I mean. He's usually better behaved than that." He was still scrolling through pictures, "Oh, oh, look at this one." It was obviously one that wasn't taken by Oliver himself, because he was laying on the couch with both of the cats attempting to fight for a place on top of his face. What a good nap place, they were so smart.
"Chai is the calico. Nosey is the other." He clarified after a moment, "She so funny, Nosey is. She startles so easily. Chai just doesn't give a <********> about anything." He flipped through some more pictures, these ones mostly generic pictures of the cats in various locations. He didn't seem worried about flipping to anything unorthodox. The truth was because it was literally all cats.
"I mean, you can come see them sometime if you want. I still kinda owe you for the lo mein and the ride." He winced, "And my wallet now, too." Ollie wasn't that friendly, but he repaid his debts.

Oliver was more than happy to ford questions about his precious cat children. "She totally does! Chai thinks she's such a clever cat, but she's not." He snorted, "She also sleeps under the blankets at night, usually. It's so weird, 'cause you'll wake up 'cause she's licking your feet or something." He seemed... proud of this fact, for some reason.
"I think they were rescues this time around." His choice of wording was odd, but he didn't notice the slip, "Well, we kinda... stole... Nosey. There was a haunted house attraction last Halloween and she was just wandering around. Pascal too. So uh, Elliot and I sort've... took them home. They were only babies! It was their owners fault, ignorant pricks."

He perked, "You know about—?" Oliver looked around, peeked over the aisle shelf, "You know about the void thing?" He looked so relieved, so relieved, "It's so weird dancing around it. I just have to pretend I know what's going on with everything? Like here, I never used to work here. I don't care about this stuff." He sighed. The dam had burst. He was raving on and on and on.
"Sorry, it's just most people think I'm ******** crazy." He was looking over his nails as he spoke, each of them well groomed. His hands were pristine in general. "A lot of us are in that boat, I hadn't realized you were too... unless you're not, but someone told you."

He nodded, "I guess there were versions of us already existing here? When I woke up it was like... like walking into someone else's life." Oliver looked... bothered, but resigned. "I guess it doesn't seem that big at first, but for us it's like the entire world changed."
"So it's... kind of our bad." He rubbed his hands together, only to belatedly notice the time on his phone, "Also, it looks like your shift started like ten minutes ago, which means... mine ended. Ten minutes ago." He looked a little apologetic, "I still have to do a count for my register though, but I'll be out of your hair in a second, my bad." He went to move up to the front.
