Naminé stepped into the room tentatively, glancing the small turtle Raphael was holding. It was sort of an unusual choice for a pet, unless it was somehow a relative or friend of theirs. She supposed it wasn't her place to judge.

"That's what I was hoping to ask you." She held out the piece of paper she'd brought with her. "I seem to be assigned as the Big Sibling for someone named Raphael. I didn't think it was a very common name, but then, you've been here just as long as I have, haven't you?"
