I'll take the floating girl then.

[ He has his eyes on you, Coyote. ]

[ Don't be such a stick in the mud, Panther.

But he'll wait his turn, then, for this Echo chatting. ]

[ the floating girl jerks at the mention of her appearance ]

U-u-uhm... I-I have a name.....

[ Oops... ]

Oh, sorry. What is your name then?

C-Cecilia. It's nice to meet you. W-would you like some tea?

[ He already has some coffee but it wouldn't be very polite for him to turn it down, would it? ]

I wouldn't mind some. It might be better than this coffee that I'm having.

[ Sorry Coyote. ]

[ she gets you a cup and then proceeds to pour you some tea ]

H-here you are. It's really nice, getting to meet m-more wisps. I didn't ever really have the chance to, before.

Thank you.

[ Taking the tea and blowing on it before taking a small sip. ]

Is that right? Did you have something preventing you from seeing us?

N-not exactly. But... I was never in v-very good health, and I was always looking after the other members of Takshaka w-who came to live with me, in my realm.

[ Do taking in members put a strain on Echoes?? This is news to him. ]

I see.

[ .... What would be a good way to resolve this situation? Not be gloomy, right? ]

Well, now you get to see two new people here. I'm Panther from Cats and the other with me is named Coyote.

[ He'll give her a small nod in greeting to her. ]

Y-yes! I'm so happy!

[ and you can feel it ]

T-Tell me, how did you meet Roc?

[ Well this isn't a story that is going to be nice but— ]

I really met her after a "game" that Nyssa held. It was one where Nyssa took control over us Cats and forced us to do terrible things to the other teams. It's also the game that took place before she overthrew Estelle. [ It seems so long ago and yet it really hasn't been too long. ]

After the game and the changes, I told Roc that should anything happen to the Cats ever again like that, that she should make sure we are stopped. Killed, if we had to be since none of us want to be used to hurt anyone ever again.

Of course, Roc agreed and went to tell the rest of Takshaka about it. [ There'll be a pause as he laughs. He honestly doubts something like that can happen now. ]

She's a really good girl.

She is a good kid. [ He can certainly agree to that statement. ]

First time I was aware of her, she had shown up at my.. trial. After the same game Panther's referring to. I didn't actually talk to her until a week and a half after. She was out on a quest asking for some help.

[ But he'll jerk his head in Panther's direction. ] But I know about her before then because of this guy.

O-Oh? Are you two v-very close teammates, then?

[ WHY......................................................... ]

Something like that.

[ Okay, this is the point that he'll lean over and drape an arm around Panther's shoulder with a grin. ]

Hit the nail on the head.

O-oh!!

[ her cheeks go very pink ]

S-so it's... l-l-like that then....

[ I'm so sorry naru it wasn't even on purpose ]

[ Does he even have the energy to rebuff this? DOES HE? He'll just.....sit here and suck it up.

The things he does for Hiyori. ]

Not exactly, but we are close.

Don't be modest, Panther.

[ Yeah, he's awful. ]

Honestly, though. We're really just good friends. Panther's helped me through some hell and I owe him a lot.

O-oh! So then... you're like... nakama, then.

[ IF THIS WAS CANON HIM... ]

I guess. Yeah, something like that.

[ Hey, at least he can get this much out of him and his tail is showing he's content as it moves back and forth casually. ]

Sometimes it's hard to say.

[ You know, just putting that out there. Mr. Never Honest With Feelings. ]

But yeah. Not a bad word from my end, at least.

E-e-even the best of friends... fight... sometimes. As long as... there's forgiveness at the end of the day... that's what's i-important.

--T-tell me, what do you like to do? In your free time?
