Stay in the box. [...] No. Stay in the bo- Stay-

[And that's when Sigmund realizes the journal already started recording while he was distracted.]

[...What a way to start her day, an order from one of the redheads least in her favor.]

...Are you asking to talk to me, or telling me to be someplace.

I am telling you that if you wish to talk, I will be available. This is a private matter. I will not discuss it just anywhere.

[It takes her a moment to translate what on earth he could be on about. It's early, and this whole conversation started off on the wrong foot.]

Oh. All right, I'll meet you. Seven o'clock?

[And so, round about seven o'clock and in her new, Catherine-given parka, Katara heads out to meet Sigmund past the Southern edge of town.]

[He will be waiting just past the last houses, with a little white ball of light floating just above his head, and a heavy blue cloak bundled over his shoulders. While he waits, he appears to be... quietly scolding a bundle of cloak balled up in the crook of one arm.]

[All serious business aside, Katara's momentarily fascinated with that ball of light and hardly notices that Sigmund has seemed to move on to scolding himself.]

Woah. What's that?

[Sigmund blinks at her and tucks his bundle of cloak closer - is it... squirming? - before pointing at his light. This?] It is a sunstone.

Oh. It's beautiful. [Well, that answers that, she guesses. Some kind of stone from his world? She'd ask further, but then... she can't help but notice the squirming.]

And what's that?

[It is at this point that an overexcited ball of reddish-brown fluff frees itself from his grasp and tumbles into the snow. The puppy toddles on over to sniff around her feet, and greets her with an aggressive little urf.

...]

Bad Dog.

[Katara's eyes widen in surprise and then she kneels down, holding out a hand so the dog can get a better sniff.]

You brought a... beardog?

[The puppy sniffs her hand once, like it's doing it to be polite. Then it turns around in a circle and half-sits, half-flops, whining. Sigmund sighs, and scoops it back up again.]

It gave me little choice.

[...

And Katara indulges in a little mental snicker at watching Sigmund cater to the puppy.]

Since when did you have a puppy?

[Sigmund is not amused by Dog's antics, but he bundles him back up in his cloak with only minor grumbling, so that now he has a ball of cloak with a puppy head sticking out.]

Since two days ago.

But where did you get him? I haven't seen any animals like this around.

[...yes, she is completely distracted for the next moment or two.]

[Sigmund looks back at the town, and then decides to move just a little farther away. He gestures for Katara to walk with him.]

From the statue.
