Khione@Rin (lanternrite): Got dragged here against your will too, huh? Least you didn't get asked to play dress up in the process. *chuckle* Hey, since you're here, can you do me a favour and let me stick close by for a bit so I actually feel like I know someone here and don't look completely fish-out-of-watery? And for that matter... who dragged you here? Was it that hyperactive little cloud that I swear broke the sound barrier about a half-hour ago?
Rin perked up slightly. Oh! She knew this one! It was sure helpful to see someone she recognised here. It would go a ways in feeling less like she stuck out.
Then Rin noticed that Khione was dressed in a decidedly different outfit today.
Oh no. Were they supposed to dress up? Would it be a problem if they weren't? Many questions raced through Rin's head at that moment. She tried to reassure herself by noting that neither her nor Perseus had gotten any comments on their lack of finery so far.
"Not really unwillingly," Rin said, looking directly at Khione with a shrug. "I offered to take them. It's not so bad, I'm just not used to these sort of things."
She held out her paw for a handshake. "I'm not sure if I told you my name before. It's Rin. It is nice to see you here, Khione." she offered a small smile.
Hyperactive cloud? That certainly seemed like an apt description Perseus. "That sounds like them. Blue and purple, with yellow eyes? That would be Perseus.
Ah, but, of course I would happy to tag along," she said. "I could use the company, especially since I seem to have been abandoned by my charge," she tapped her chin and made a frown, pretending to be offended by this. She hoped an attempt at humour would break the ice a little.
< Rin decided to go with Khione! >
