... That's really it?

[ He doesn't need anything from her? Answers to some great mystery that her father probably had something to do with? The weird power her Horologium possessed? A sense of entertainment??? ]

[petnadjanka]

Is there's supposed to be somethin' else?

[he's confused.]

[discardia]

... I forgot you don't usually need a reason.

[ it's been a while. ]

[petnadjanka]

Ehehe, damn right I don't!

[why is he so proud of this?]

[discardia]

[ why... is he so proud of this? ]

Ah... for now... on the way back, do you want to try holding Sisi?

[ Well, he's got to start somewhere-- why not before he tries to feed him? ]

[petnadjanka]

You think he'll let me?

[he wants to, of course. he does want to get along with sisi... it's just that sisi never actually gives him the opportunity to do so.

the worst.]

[discardia]

I think it should be fine... probably... if I'm close. Then he knows you're not a threat.

[ Well, he should know this by now, but first impressions apparently die hard. ]

[petnadjanka]

Aw, c'mon Sisi! Don't ya know that I'm not any kinda threat by now? I'm not hurtin' anyone!

[tytree crowe has done nothing wrong!]

[discardia]

I'm sure he knows. He just needs reminding.

[ So she's solemnly holding out her armful o'corgi. Who is staring at Tytree like UNSURE. ]

[petnadjanka]

C'mere, Sisi! Ya got nothin' to worry about, I promise!

[stop looking so unsure! he'll reach out (though he's pretty much expecting to get bitten, honestly).]

[discardia]

[ He's certainly growling-- but Cardia shhes him. ]

It's all right. He's fine.

[ And she'll just be handing him over, keeping one hand on Tytree's arm so Sisi doesn't immediately try to bite him. ]

[petnadjanka]

[well, it's not like this is something to complain about. the growling aside, everything else is pretty good.]

See, Sisi? I ain't gonna hurt either one of ya, it's fine! [yeah, he'll sure keep talking to the dog in the same way he talks to a person. this is all fine and okay.]

[discardia]

[ There's silence, before Sisi barks-- and then Cardia smiles, slightly. ]

I think he's willing to give you a chance. [ because Cardia's there, but at least it's a start. ]

[petnadjanka]

I'll take it... it's a start!

[it's not like tytree's going to complain about this.]

Just keep watchin', Sisi! I'll show ya!

[he'll be a good dog uncle. or something, whatever he is.]

[discardia]

[ That's promising, and she'll take her arm away--

Except then Sisi immediately starts growling, so she puts it back. ]

... I'm sorry.

[petnadjanka]

...Guess this is gonna be as tough as we first thought after all, huh.

[sighs!!!!

of course, tytree will get by, but it's still a bit of a shame that sisi is so cold to him.]

[discardia]

He wouldn't even let Impey pick him up, so you're actually doing fairly well!

[ Comparatively. ]

[petnadjanka]

[well, it's a start.]

So you're sayin' I'm still pretty luck here, huh?

[discardia]

I wouldn't say lucky... maybe you're just not as questionable.

[ IT'S A COMPLIMENT. ]

[petnadjanka]

...Eh? How questionable's this Impey guy?

[probably not the takeaway tytree should be getting from this..]

[discardia]

[ probably not. ]

He's a good person, but he says a lot of things I can't really understand... about things he'd like to do to me?

1/2

[petnadjanka]

[what.

what!?]

[petnadjanka]

Wh... what.. .what do you mean, things he wanted to do to ya!?

[discardia]

... I don't believe I'm allowed to mention them. Lupin said it was improper.

[petnadjanka]

Whaaaaaaaat!? That's—

[who is this guy, and what is he trying to do to cardia!?]
