When the cat came over to sniff at her, Aves bent down and offered a hand for scratches, waiting for the cat to rub against her before she went ahead and pet it. Tia seemed like a really good kid. "I like him, too," Aves said. "Would you kids like to help take a few things to the table?" Sure, she could just send everything with figurines, but since there were already so many hands available, she saw no need to crowd the place further. After it carried a bowl of tomatoes to the table, Aves dissipated the figurine that had been chopping with her.
