[@Avanhelsing]. Excellent!

[@Tsar Gatto]  "Friendly as can be", eh?  Yeah, Alys isn't going to like her much.  Tamiko is it.  Possibly even Miss Tamiko, just to add that extra degree of formality.  Pretty sure I get what you mean about wanting to be liked for the wrong reasons.  Tami admires Alys's independence.  Unfortunately her manipulative nature means that she sees Alyssana as the useful resource the young lady might be, and not as a potential friend.  It's funny, because original Alys would do precuisely the same.  ^.^  There's probably a bit of tension, but it's coming gfrom Alys, it seems.

*grin*  glad you like her.  She's currently my favorite character base, and I think tyhis is gonna be great fun.  <3
