Maoin blinked a couple of times.  [color=darkslateblue]"S-something wrong Lady Gwynn?"[/color]  The cat blinked a couple of times before frowning as she returned her look off in the distance.  [color=darkslateblue]"I-I heard from the headmistress that you worked as a maid in her manor for a while ... that's how you managed to buy the sword, isn't it?  That must have been really hard for you ..."[/color]  The kitten lifted up her sword a bit from her sheathe.  [color=darkslateblue]"I would have worked with you ... I know why you didn't just ask me for the money but did you think I was going to tease you about it?"[/color]  

The cat gave Lady Gwynn another hug and frowned, giving her enough time to respond briefly to that statement before drawing it out of her sheathe and holding the handle towards her former mistress.  Her eyes watered slightly.  [color=darkslateblue]"But I think you should take it back.  I've thought about this since we last talked and I realized you are right to have left me. You created me - and I failed as your pet, servant, and familiar.  I betrayed you.  I deserved to be abandoned by you and it was generous of you to have the headmistress check up on me.  I didn't deserve that.  Your next familiar should have it - I'm not sure when that will be, but I wish them the best of luck and hope they are able to serve you better than I was."[/color]

Maoin paused for a moment, thinking.  [color=darkslateblue]"B-by the way.  We talked after the library ... I stand by what I said then.  If you ever need someone let me know.  I know you don't trust me after that night and perhaps that's wise but ... but I'd hate to see anything bad happen to you.  Even if it's high risk pirate enterprise.  It shouldn't be hard to find my new mistress if you need me - and I think the two of you would make good friends anyways."[/color]
