Fifth Song ★ Dictated

[catsong]

Is this another castle thing? We just got home from that terrible mirror place, and now something else happens?

Is it always like this?




....so... um... who is staying in this Apollo cabin? There seems to be a lot of us.

I usually have a special saddle that I can strap myself into so I do not fall.

[catsong]

Oh, that's so smart!

[He smiles a little.]

That way, you could probably travel all over in no time...

[peacockherald]

True. I would have to be out on circuit for several months at time, so it was an easy way to travel if I needed to get somewhere in a hurry.

[catsong]

Really? Wow...

[He looks at Yfandes again, leaning a bit so he can see her legs move. Four legs must be so much better. Just like the Goddess.]

[peacockherald]

Part of our job.

_{[He held tighter as the other leaned, not wanting him to fall.]}

[catsong]

You must not see your home a lot, then.

[He loses his balance a little bit, so he quickly leans up again and holds on to Yfandes.]

[peacockherald]

_{[Yfandes snorted and broke, dropping down to a walk again, head bobbing, but otherwise not seeming to winded.]}

Not to much, but... I am all right with that.

[catsong]

[He gently pats Yfandes neck with a soft smile as the horse slows down, and then he turns a bit to look at Vanyel.]

It's a good thing she's with you.

[Or he'd be lonely, wouldn't he? Empath cat worries.]

[peacockherald]

Yes, it is. I am never alone, thanks to her.

_{[He offered him a soft smile in reassurance.]}

[catsong]

...it's nice to have friends like that.

[peacockherald]

It is. And you know, Yfandes and I are your friends too here, should you need us - or just want company.

[catsong]

[His ears perk at that, the tips twitching just slightly.]

Truly? You're... that's so nice of you both.

[peacockherald]

We all need each other here, so it's no problem.

_{[For some reason, seeing those ears perk makes him feel good and he can only smile more.]}

[catsong]

So many cats do not care about other cats, so it feels really good to meet nice people in this place.

[He gently pets Yfandes.]

I feel like being here has taught me more than I've learned in my whole life.

[peacockherald]

That is good, and I hope you continue to learn more.

[catsong]

As do I!

[Newfound confidence, go!]
