[kabari]

[ yeah. this business isn't hers to spread. she can barely hold a decent conversation with her piddly charisma score as it is. ]

It's nice when it's quiet, I'll give you that.

[dropoffs]

[ takes a long draw off cigarette and letting the silence hang comfortably a moment. ] Good place to think too much, good place to not think at all. Sometimes I don't know which I'd prefer.

[kabari]

[ she definitely brought her pipe. she brings that thing everwhere. never know when you need to do a taunt animation.

she's in no hurry to break the silence. ]

Thinkin' too much doesn't do any good.

[dropoffs]

[ they hold out their lighter for her if she needs a light. as they do so, the cat just kind of lifts its head to sleepily look at baiken and hops off the couch on the other side to go and just strut right across hers. unafraid. what's up? ] Son, don't be too nosy...

[kabari]

[ she accepts the offer - boy does that make things easier - and reclines back onto the couch as she inhales. she watches idly as son does son things. ]

What're you, a bakeneko?

[ probably just a cat, but, you never know. ]

[dropoffs]

[ it is really just a cat prowling in close. he is well-fed and sleek, and just kind of leans in the way cats do to sniff sniff sniff. probably leaning back then because smoky. ] He's my cat. From home.

[kabari]

[ sorry kitto, but baiken isn't going to stop just because you're curious. she eyes him idly, as she doesn't get much time up close and personal with animals. ]

And you named him Son? Or is that a callsign too.

[dropoffs]

[ that's ok, thebe smokes, he clearly gets the gist. instead, he makes his home on the end of the couch again. stinky. ] Yeah. ... His real name's Fore.

[kabari]

Fore, huh? Interesting. [ if only because it's like "four" and she is very japanese, guilty gear cannot leave you alone with how japanese she is. ]

...You got a name, or is it some company secret?

[dropoffs]

[ thebe's gotten used to knowing that the fore golf joke is just totally lost on many people on board this ship. that's okay. they just ponder the next question a moment. ] Yeah, I've got one. But I have to go by just my callsign for a little longer...

[kabari]

Course you do. [ that's fine. they could have just said 'i don't want to tell' and baiken would have accepted it all the same. ]

Don't want to make the Company upset.
