SARAAAA SARAAAAA HELLOOOOOO! Do you like cats??

"Oh, hello!!" Sara grins, waving her hand. She seems pretty excited by the question, as shown by the way he taps his foot on the ground. "Cats, huh? Yeah, I really like them! They're really cute, and..."

The ginger shakes her head, laughing a little. "Oh, I'm really underselling it a bit. I love cats, I've always wanted one as a pet. They're so adorable! I would love to have a little fluffball just... walking around the house. My mom's allergic to cat hair, though, so I won't be getting one until I inevitably move out, unfortunately."

Sara leans back in the seat a little, letting themself relax a bit as they rambled. "She did let me keep this one cat temporarily, though! Just until we could find his owner. His name was Kuro... Really adorable guy, mostly hung out in my room. Sometimes he'd sneak out and go into my parents room, and no one would know until we heard my mother sneezing, haha... She's really sweet for letting me shelter the cat until we found his owners. Of course, my dad had to give me permission too, which was significantly harder to get, but...! That's not the point," xe laughs, rubbing her hands together.

"I will say, I did feel a little sad when one of my classmates showed up, looking for their cat. I think Kuro and I really bonded, but he seemed happy to go back home... I guess that's fair. It's back to no pets until I can afford to take care of one myself, though! In the meantime, this cat keychain Joe got for me will do." He smiles, fishing the soft, grey item out of her pocket. She holds it between her two fingers for a moment, staring at it as if they're once again only seeing it for the first time. Eventually, they look back up.

"Cute, right? Apparently, he won it at the arcade in our town... the same one Ryoko got the dog keychain! I guess that explains the similarities, huh?" She giggles, a warm smile on her face. "I've gotta find some bunny keychain for her at some point... She really likes them, haha."

"Oh! I'm talking too much now, aren't I?" Sara notes, pulling the keychain away from his face. She quickly stuffs it back into their breast pocket, tucking it neatly so it stuck out in a similar fashion to the brunet's. "Sorry, I just... get like that when it comes to cats. They're really cool, what can I say? Hmm... Do you have a cat? I'd love to hear about them!!"
