[color=ec008c][h3][center]~Odette Billeaud~[/center][/h3][/color] [@Melpaws][@Spriggs27] Odette simply listened silently, glad to no longer be the center of attention. Ash, the ant person seemed like a pleasant enough person to be around. She didn't seem to take her stumbling over her words as anything mean, at least. She listened quietly to Ash start talking about her and her people. Aside from living beneath the surface of the earth, there was also a group of lizard people they were at war with. She'd love to know more - about their culture, history...everything. Maybe there were books she could read since asking directly would probably be a bit...difficult. Then she asked Kyoko a rather odd question. Kyoko was human wasn't she? She had said so much herself, didn't she? Or at least, she mistook her for one when they first met, so she assumed at any rate. Not that Odette particularly minded if she wasn't. She was a ghost - she didn't have much room for talking in that department. The ghost turned her head to Kyoko, giving her a slightly expectant seeming look. [h3][color=7ea7d8][center]~Ustha-Kth, Bea~[/center][/color][/h3] [@Blu] Friends? With...this little human child? She would greatly love to have a friend, but so far most humans tended to...well, if they weren't wary of her they tended to behave in the same manner as Edward. Seeing this small child behave in such an enthusiastic manner towards her was both refreshing and welcome. After that confrontation with him, she could have used a good laugh, and this was definitely the sort of laugh she needed. Plus, he had called her name pretty. She smiled, stifling a small laugh. Well, if he heard her actual name it'd probably be a [i]lot[/i] less pretty since he probably wouldn't even be able to say it. Ah, maybe she should tell him and watch him try to anyways? He looked like he might. It'd be funny watching him bumble about trying to pronounce something humans would have a hard time vocalizing. [color=7ea7d8]"Ah, the little cub is Tsuki? This little birdie would enjoy being-Friends?"[/color] She had been wholly unprepared for the hug. Not that she found it unpleasant. Humans were oddly fun to embrace. The...ahem, touching, though, was not something she had been prepared for at all. Not that she minded a little...touching. In fact, she greatly enjoyed any sort of physical contact with humans. Granted...they [i]generally[/i] didn't like...appendages covered in questionable slimy fluid doing the touching or rather, [i]where[/i] the touching happened, but details. That was half the fun of it. This precious little human child though, was just too adorable. At being called big sis, Bea just laughed brightly. [color=7ea7d8]"Hehe, ah cute little cub...You're an innocent one, aren't you?"[/color] As she spoke, she gave him a bright smile as her arms gently wrapped around Tsuki and gave him a surprisingly firm hug and holding him closer. He was so small and adorable, she didn't want to let go. [color=7ea7d8]"This one would not mind being called 'Big Sis' at all."[/color] Being the youngest out of her siblings, this would be a refreshing change of pace, heh. As Bea hugged him, he'd feel her affectionately rub the top of his head before sliding down the back of his head, resting a moment on his neck before withdrawing. Except, both of her arms were still holding him in a hug, and the appendage was somewhat damp and...slimy? [color=7ea7d8]"Let this little birdie lead the lost little cub, then."[/color] She said, quickly releasing him from the hug and taking a step back. Ah, where had this adorable, precious, human child been all her life? She wanted to take him home and keep him...keeping humans as pets though, would likely not really get her on friendly terms with them. well, she could at least have her fun with him. Just one thing before she left. She may have been terrified of what he [i]might[/i] do to her. but She could at least have her fun with him. She couldn't help it. Messing with these funny little humans were just too amusing, and it'd be so much fun watching him squirm, if even a little. A small victory over him, at least. With a giggle, she turned on the spot and walked towards the exit of the auditorium making a noticeable point to walk close to Edward. As she passed, Edward would feel something slimy, damp, and cold touch the back of his neck and slither around to the front...and slowly slither down his shirt. It was mostly to get his attention and before he could do anything though, it was quickly retracted. If he looked, the only thing he'd find on Bea is a small smile, seemingly ignoring him and motioning for Tsuki to hurry up. [color=7ea7d8]"Come on, little Cub. This place is full of silly little lizards and ignorant little buzzards."[/color] She giggled, making sure both Edward, Lily, and Ascot could hear her. [color=7ea7d8]"The cute little fox is friendly though, but we can't stay for a chat."[/color] Before any of them could possibly say anything as a rebuttal, she quickly exited the auditorium, only making sure to wait long enough to make sure Tsuki saw where she went. Assuming he did in fact follow her, now she could play with him a little. [color=7ea7d8]"Hmm~ I believe the dorms were...this way."[/color] At least, that's what she said. She wasn't going to head straight there. Leading him in the opposite direction of the dorms, the pair would eventually ending up in the sports building and the swimming pool. No, she wasn't lost. She simply was taking the 'scenic' route. A tour of the campus! That would definitely help him not get lost again! She knew what she was doing, yep. She always knew what she was doing. [color=7ea7d8]"Ah...this is...water?"[/color] She tilted her head to the side. [color=7ea7d8]"Not the ocean, too small."[/color]
