If Asha had cat ears, they would have flattened onto her head with all of the yelling and fighting that was going on. She hated hearing people fight and argue over things, she was definitely not trained or well versed in the art of verbal warfare. She waited silently, wanting to let everyone make their decisions on their own. She nodded in understanding when she heard Katsu tell her that you don't exactly trust many people in his line of work. There was honor among some thieves, but not all. Through out all the fighting, she started to hear Siku choke a bit on her words, as if she was trying desperately to hold back tears; she was really quite good at this, as Asha seen that no tears had fallen from her eyes. Her heart fell when she heard Siku tell them that she didn't have many friends, so she was hurt when Katsu didn't care to tell her things. It was sweet that Siku thought of Katsu as a friend, even if they didn't really know each other all that well. The brunette perked up a bit when Katsu seemed to finally give in to them being a little group for the time being and smiled warmly at Siku when she told her she was glad she was okay. Out of impulse, she went up to Siku and gave her a big hug. "I am glad to have you as a friend, Siku. I think I can safely say you are one of my closest." Asha wasn't just saying that, either. Even though she spent most of her time watching Siku's sister, she felt a close bond with the water bender, feeling as if friendship for them was something that was meant to happen. "I am fine with tagging along, no worries," Asha said, reassuring her friend that all would be well.
