Mid-day

[It has been a week. Well, eight days. Carol drew up a little calendar that she keeps hanging her kitchen. No months, no year. After talking to some others, she realized it might not be relevent. So she just marks the days. Maybe it's pointless, maybe she'll tire of it after a while, but for now it helps.

Today, Carol can be found in the museum, smiling fondly, sometimes stupidly, sometimes laughing, at cats wearing clothes.]

...and then...

[Inspired, Carol finds herself at the Pet Cafe, staring down a huddle of kittens and wondering how she can leave with just one.]

	Me, either. I usually left that sort of thing to my daughter. Did you have any pets back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When I was little, Alone had adopted a dog. Everyone at the orphanage took care of it. [But it ended up becoming Cerberus, but Tenma won't mention that.] You have a daughter? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I did. Her name was Sophia. [She keeps her eyes on the kitten, smiling fondly down on it, even if it is a little sad.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Tenma smile falters a little.] Oh. I'm sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She shakes her head and turns her (somewhat sad) smile on him.] It's alright. It happened a long time ago. [It felt like a long time ago. Ages. Sophia is part of why she reaches out to other children. She wants to see them survive.] How about Snowball? It's not very inventive, is it? But it's very white-cat.

	It might, but losing people is always painful, even if it was a long time ago. I think Snowball is a good name for him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is painful. But the pain is remainder that I am alive, and I can still help others. [She hikes the little kitten up against her shoulder and holds him steady with one hand as she stands.] I suppose to bring this little one home. How about you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pegasus_tenma 2014-09-18 12:14 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... Those are wise words. [At the question, Tenma shrugs.] I don't know. I was never much of a pet person. That was Alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Would you like to help me get this one settled then? I'm going to have to make a run to the store for supplies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pegasus_tenma 2014-09-18 06:22 pm UTC (link)
	Sure, that sounds good. I could help you pick stuff too if you want. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wanna tie this one up? carol_peletier 2014-09-18 07:55 pm UTC (link)
	I would like that. Thank you, Tenma. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sure! pegasus_tenma 2014-09-18 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	You're welcome, Carol. (Reply to this) (Parent)
