What was that dream? Sel looked over towards Sly, only feeling some anger ... and perhaps a little fear, as well? It was rather apparent that it had been Sly ... no, Mie's dream. The mage gave her familiar an unusually inquisitive look, gauging her and the entire situation. She supposed it wasn't impossible that they would share a dream, would it be? [color=gray]"M-"[/color] For a couple of seconds the mage considered calling Sly her real name, but hesitated and decided against it as she stood up, turning the M sound into something that hopefully passed off as a sort of tired grunt. That was her previous life, a seemingly depressing one. It didn't matter. This was her new life, and in this new life she was Sly, familiar of Lady Selvina de Zaberbuch. [color=gray]"Yes, good Sly, always making sure Master is up on time."[/color] Sel raised an eyebrow at the small fox. [color=gray]"You just need my company that badly, don't you?"[/color] Sel looked towards Lady Gwynn, who hadn't commented because she was either asleep or silent. [color=gray]"Hey there, Gwynn. Ready to go?"[/color] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/KDNoPCb.jpg[/img][/center] [color=darkslateblue]"Yes! Boarman big!"[/color] Maoin exclaimed with false enthusiasm as they walked out of the door, the cat pretending to ignore Lady Luna's large eyeroll. What was a boarman anyways? Did they even exist? Avaline was probably just talking about something she'd imagined - she was practically a child, after all. After double checking to make sure the lizard was following her, the cat began to jog away from the house - partially to get away from the currently insufferable Lady Lightsword, but mostly so that if the knightess was watching she'd have seen them run for at least a short while and wouldn't be able to demand another lap. As soon as they were securely out of sight though, Maoin slowed down to a casual walk and began to look towards the sky, hoping to spot her mistress. If she spotted a Lady Sorcha shaped speck in the sky, the cat would wave. It was rather obvious what the knightess wanted after all, and the sooner they all pretended to be a happy family the sooner this would be over with. Maoin let out a sigh as the dragon didn't materialize, continuing to walk along their path and generally looking away from the lizard - she would be able to hear if Avaline decided to run away in her stupidity, but luckily she seemed intent on following the 'Small, Black, Furry Mammal' for now. The cat really hoped the lizard didn't decide to start a conversation due to her body language, though the blasted creature probably would anyways - if she didn't, after all, she might realize how empty her mind was without the sound of her own voice and stop functioning. And given the problems Avaline was causing around the house, that'd be a blessing.
