Sophia/Frederick Chin scratches were his favorite. Frederick purred loudly, though not loud enough that he could not hear her. He listened to the tale she told of the Colonel. She seemed to care deeply for this man, which made him both happy and sad, seeing as he was now gone.
Then she spoke of the dead Rising. That caused his eyes to peek just a little bit. What a terrifying world she must had been living in before arriving here. If the robotic cat could frown, he would have.
"He sounds like a great man, Sophia. One most others should aspire to be like. I have no doubt that he is missed, not only by you but by all whose lives he had touched. And I am so sorry for this loss." His voice was still rather soft, even if he was speaking through his own purring.
