With permission granted, Alayna's eyes lighten and she gives Bast a big grin as the cat saunters over to her, rubbing her head against her legs in approval.  The witch, letting go of her suitcase, bends over to pet her, a small giggle escaping her mouth before she can stop it. It can't be helped though. Cats were always so adorable and it was obvious Bast was trying to make her feel more at ease. They were supposed to be good at picking up on emotional gestures, after all. "[color=ed1c24]Thanks for that[/color]," she whispers, scratching said cat under her head, earning another soft purr. 

Her attention is only diverted once Caleb moves to lean against the wall, a curious frown playing on her lips. How long had she zoned out for? What favor was he referring to?  Alayna looks from him to Calypso before silently cursing herself. If she wanted to make friends with her peers, she had to focus on them a little more, no? But once again she finds herself feeling like the outsider, being the outsider, and she only has herself to blame this time. 

[color=ed1c24][i]Ah well, can't be helped I guess[/i][/color], she thinks to herself, getting up and grabbing her suitcase handle. 

"[color=ed1c24]Uhh...what are we talking about here, exactly?[/color]" she whispers to Dakota,  "[color=ed1c24]I got a little...distracted[/color]."
