"I'll just stay here and wait for you all to come back." Ander stated, still sitting under the tree. Dremmick eyed him suspiciously before nodding and moving on.

While on the way in he whispered to Tara, who was quite crestfallen that the cat turned out to be a human. "Is something wrong with your brother? He seems a little...off, per say."

"Well, he did mention that he was glad to finally be able to take a breather for the first time in years." Tara replied, with her head tilted.

"Hmm....and... you think he's fine?"

"I would assume so," she replied quickly, "He's never lied to me before."

"Alrgiht," Dremmick said, ending the questions

When they got in the house Dremmick and Tara picked up talk about a crystal, "[i]Great, more magic crystal problems.[/i]" he thought. He looked over to Tara, who was watching the cat shapeshifted intently. "[i]wonder what she's thinking...[/i]"

"[i]So... is it a cat that can transform into a person, or a person who can transform into a cat? If she was a person, it would be wrong to pet her as a cat, right? But if she was a cat would it be wrong to pet her if she can transform into a human? If she were a bad guy, would she be her own evil pet? I wonder if she can become different types of cats. OH! Or maybe different types of humans!-[/i]"

"Tara," Dremmick whispered to her, breaking her thought process, "She's not an actual cat."

Tara jumping a little when her concentration was broken, and sheepishly grinned at Dremmick, "I- I knew that!" she stammered, blushing.
