stoic is okay, i feel like tabby is the sort of person who could make a conversation with a wall OR just be quiet and enjoy the comfort of silence and hanging out. she saps her moods from other people cause she is extremely empathetic and sympathetic so he might rub off on her as much as she would try to rub off on him too. yuri and tabby are actually old school friends, they moved to new york together and stayed with his sister for a while before attempting to venture out on their own and claud is her ex co-worker and good friend so we can say they met through hem or we can say they met on their own and then later on figured out they were part of this big incestuous friendship group. i've been looking for a roommate for her but i might just have her in a really shitty studio/or 1br but if he needed to couch surf ever she would have lent it to him at some point if that was necessary!
