...*watching her, doesn't want to bother her while she's reading*

*will look up and smile, awkwardly*

I...er...your cat's beautiful.

*for some reason, this amuses her, and she grins* You think? She's getting on in years, a bit.

She's lovely. My Cinderella's three. She's my everything. *small smile*

Aw. Faithie would be glad to meet her, I'm sure. *she nods towards the cat* She always loves a playdate.

Brilliant! Cinderella gets a little lonely, sometimes. There is only one other cat that hangs around the common room, but I bet I could bring her out here. She's not used to a lot of people, though. She hides when the common room gets too rowdy...which it often does.

*she grins* Faithie likes people. Crowds, even. She relishes the attention.

*likes attention...* Maybe opposites will attract, then!

Maybe!

*the cat in her arms starts meowing noisily, and she reaches down to pet her*

*bites his lip as he watches the two of them* Well, definitely. Next time I see you around, I'll be sure to bring Cinderella by!

That'd be lovely. *she smiles*

*sits next to her, sorting through letters*
Anyone vanish today?

*she shrugs, trying to smile* No news is good news... right?

Suppose so. *folds over one letter, picking up another*
Though I'm starting to wonder if they're just not reporting things for that reason.

*biting her lip* Well, they sure don't want to scare us.

But eventually, it'll have to come out, yeah?

Suppose they'll have to if like... the minister goes missing.

They can't keep stuff secret forever. It'll get out somehow.

Bet you some of Anne's best Christmas Candies they wont admit to anything until after Haloween and elections.

It's a deal. *she puts her paper down* I hate not knowing.

*holds her hand to shake on it*
I don't think we're being given much of a choice on it.

*shakes*

Doesn't seem like it.
