No need to fret. I’ve sharp senses, so I will keep an ear out.
[ As if to illustrate his point, he lifts his hat, revealing the feline ears beneath. As if his tail wasn’t enough of a giveaway to the fact that he isn’t human. ]
We miqo’te are natural-born hunters. I'll do my best to see to it that we aren't hunted instead.
[ Truth be told, she isn't the Sharpest Tool in the Shed, so the ears are the only thing that give her away to him being more than human. And only now do her eyes magically trail down towards his tail.
But she pulls her eyes back up to his face, near snapping to attention. ]
Miqo'te? [ It's much tinier than what she expects to come out. ] Do you all have those [ a pause. she wants to say cute... ] ears?
[ He knows that look— she’s far from the first one to find his feline features adorable. It’s no small wonder that she doesn’t reach out to try and pet him. ]
[ She knows talking cats, herself.. she (at least) knows better than to outright try and touch something she finds cute by now. It's why she contains her excitement, as obvious as it is, dialing it down some as they walk. ]
Juvia just didn't notice, before.. Sorry, you must get asked that a lot. You're the first person I've met with features like that here, is all.
Ah, no. I don’t mind. I am the only one of my kind who seems to have woken, so it is only natural for there to be questions. I’ll gladly answer any you have for me.
[ It's easy to keep her hands to herself when she thinks about manners, and how she definitely has them. ]
Alright. [ It's not often people would give her free reign of questions, or have the liberty to speak about it what with them having to be incognito. Juvia nods, wringing her hands out in thought before looking towards him. ] What was your home like?
[ Is, not was. Even after months, it's hard to talk about it in the past tense. ]
As for how it is... I suppose you could say it sits somewhere between Olympia and Wyver, though we've nothing like the communication devices and the like. There are large cities and smaller, more rustic settlements throughout.
Miqo'te are but one of many races who call it home.
[ Juvia understands, far too easily, how that feels. It's why she listens attentively, despite how much she should be paying attention to the trail they take. ] The name is pretty. Juvia likes it.
[ She takes in the description of his home with even more care, a tiny nod coming from her person. ]
