"You did?" His eyes lit up. "It's been ages since there's been a cat around here."
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
"Perhaps you should sign the petition for more cats to be added; the twins have already started a campaign," she said with a little smile.

"I really should. All there are here are dogs and horses, and Luka. The dogs are for hunting anyway, so they don't count. And we don't keep pigs here anymore."

Ky cringed at that and looked away. No. Pigs didn’t belong in this Keep. Not after what Michael had done with them. Though she wasn’t supposed to know that. And she wouldn’t, if she weren’t such a monster. “… Petrir has been helpful to have around… I got him from Tarr’s apothecary. So… he’s been with me through it all… a nice bit of continuity.”

“The kids adore him,” Ky said. “I’m surprised none of them have mentioned him to you.”

"I haven't hung out with them properly in awhile. I had to watch Pratik for awhile after her got here, and then I sort of switched over to Rickard for a bit. He seemed like he needed a friend."

Ky nodded. “I mean… I brought him with me so he wasn’t here during all that, either. But… I’ve kept him in my room lately, so maybe they’ve forgotten? But, yeah. Rickard seems like he could use friends.”

"He spends a lot of time with Sera, but nobody else, really. Oh, and he got along with Pratik and Ada but they're both gone now. Poor guy."

Ky nodded in agreement. “…I think he and Sera get on well, at least.”

“Oh?” Ky looked at him curiously. Sera seemed far better adjusted than the rest of them. Wasn’t she friends with everyone here?

He nodded. "I mean, people are friendly with her, and the Ashes are basically her family. But she doesn't really have anyone she goes to lunch with or chats with regularly. She's kind of a loner."

“…that’s sad,” Ky said thoughtfully. “She’s so nice, too.”

"Right?? She's a great person, works so hard to keep this Keep going alongside Gaius and Sara, and she's basically isolated in the infirmary. She needs to get out more."
