Aerith, having been showering when the boy came in, exited with her robe on and a towel currently hanging over her head. Drying her hair off with one hand, she peeked out to spot the boy sitting on the floor, adorable kitten prancing about the house curiously.
"Alphonse," She sounded ready to scold him, but was obviously teasing when she giggled softly. "Is that our new roommate?"
He freezes at the sound of his name. Oh no, had he misunderstood her? If he could sweat, he would totally be sweating buckets. Alphonse doesn't really want to bring home an unwanted cat, especially since Aerith has been so nice to him.
But when she giggles, he relaxes again. "Yes! It's okay, right?" He asks, just for good measure.
Alphonse shakes his head, still mesmerized by the cat. "No, our childhood friend has a dog. But I've never had a pet before. Edward would never let me."
He stops to rethink his words. That sounded a little mean... he could understand Ed's reasoning, even if he didn't actually like it. "I mean, we moved around a lot. A cat probably wouldn't have liked it."

"Of course. I said I didn't mind earlier, right? I never really had pets before--Did you take care of cats back home?"
