[It's been a few days since Sophie was returned by the Malnosso and there's hardly any change in her condition. It's left Cheria feeling even more restless than she'd been during Sophie's kidnapping and she'd once again taken to wandering the village. Today, however, she ran into an unexpected little surprise and decided to take it home with her,

[Asbel comes into the kitchen around the time Cheria began playing with the cat. And now he's confused. When did they get a cat...?]

...A cat?

[asterism_angel]

[Cheria pauses the wiggling of the piece of string, giving the kitten ample time to jump it, as she glances up at Asbel.]

... Yes. I found it outside. [And then she turns her attention back to the kitten, looking a bit scornful. She still has not gotten over the wedding thing, no.] ... The poor thing was starving.

[raizanshou]

[Asbel walks over next to Cheria, crouching down to get a better look at it.

...Poor thing.]

Mmm... ...Any idea who it might belong to?

[asterism_angel]

[She's still keeping her eyes on the kitten, twirling and wiggling the string around.]

Not yet. I've asked on the journal system. If it belongs to someone, they may reply soon enough.

[raizanshou]

[He holds out a finger to the small creature.]

What will you do if no one comes forward?

[asterism_angel]

[Don't think Cheria hasn't considered that option. Who wouldn't, when faced with such a cute little animal?]

Keep it, of course. ... If it's all right with everyone else.

[raizanshou]

[Of course, Asbel has no issue with such an idea.]

I wonder what we could name it...

[asterism_angel]

[She's silent for a moment, throwing the end of the string closer to the kitten and then slowly drawing it away again.]

Yes, if no one steps forward I suppose we would have to name it ourselves... [It's a girl... What would she name a girl kitten? Perhaps Barona, Richard would surely like that as well.]

[raizanshou]

[Asbel already knows what he'll name it.]

...

[asterism_angel]

Well, we'll decide on that once it's certain. If we name it now, we'll only get more attached to it.

[raizanshou]

...Ah, yeah. You're right. We should probably hold off for now... [You will be his, Tiger Festival.]
