There’s a low groan from the yellow soul, kicking her feet out of boredom while sitting on a low ‘flying’ island, glittering with various flowers and plants and ‘stars’ on the ceiling.  She just got finished calming down the purple soul enough so that she could make sure the cyan soul did her end of the bargain between the six of them.  She just wants to go over to Snowdin and make sure things are okay there too, but her partner won’t let her go anywhere outside of Waterfall without her, or without her armor properly fixed up.

Earlier was a bit of a fluke, because the blue soul was still disoriented enough to agree to let them go.  She was not happy about that, if that wasn’t clear.

“Integrity! Can we get going already?! We have to make sure the runes are still up before we can settle and relax! Then we need to find that prick who killed me!”

“Justice, would you be still? I can and will bind you so I can fix your gear since you won’t take it off for a few moments. You never know who will show up...well, we don’t. And I told you, you’re not allowed to hunt anyone or anything in this frame of mind. Perseverance agrees with me, so... overruled.”

She chuckles at the second groan, refocusing on her work.

"Uj fii, ak fii, rui fii, bol fii--"

"Fiita."

"Huh?"

"It's fiita. Fish is fiita, fii isn't a word."

"Ohh...uj fiita, ak fiita--"

There's a certain pair of Souls occupying the kitchen as they are wont to do.  Bravery is perhaps reciting a very familiar children's book, now that the word "fish" is known and what spacing it provided with the chimes of their voice.  Kindness on the other hand is completely content with trying to make himself and Bravery something smaller to munch on while he fashions up something for the others.

Do they know completely who watches from the shadows?  No not really.  That was always more of the Hunters' gig.

Erm--  are they going to try and hide from a pirate?  Yes indeed!  Get the others to stay put and YEET!!  BYE FRIENDS THEY'RE GONE!

Now, see, humans can't purr.  They can make sounds similar to it, but ultimately, they can't purr.  They don't have the necessary "equipment" for it like felines do.

And that's precisely why the partial-lie of a certain kiddo madman being human is so amusing.

But that's not the point.  Not right now anyways.

Fleur's busying himself on his phone, chatting with his best friend, Leys, and his girlfriend, Katie.  In hindsight, doing either of these things around his darling uncle, wasn't a great idea.

"Oooo is that Katie? Hiii Katie!"

Mmrrrr.

"Too bad, kiddo, I reserved the annoying uncle rights a long time ago! I have to embarrass you, it would physically hurt me not to."

Mmrrraow.  Rrrrm.

"Well, you decided it was a good idea to video chat with your bestie and your girlfriend while you're with me! Deal with it <3"

"...prick."

Leys finally speaks up through their laughter.  "He speaks! You're a miracle worker."

"He knows I'm right~" Is Emrys having way too much fun embarrassing Fleur?  Oh you bet he is.

"do you want to get yeeted? you will get yoten."  Grumble-huff.

"You know you love me, kiddo!"

"yeah sure whatever."

Katie is giggling quietly on her end, enjoying seeing her boyfriend in high spirits despite his appearance.  It's a nice change in pace from what she noticed last time.

"Dude, flower boy, we gotta get you and Katie to go out with me and Bits again- there's a great arcade place up the street, just opened. You can geek out all you want and you'd be surrounded by birds of your feather. Plus, you look like you could use a proper gaming-vay-cay."

"now hold on- i wouldn't geek out."

"He so would geek out, he does it all the time here~"

"emrys shut up!"

"Never!"
