#JFJKJDK everytime she learns more about this damn household she is just: ' 😶 huh. '

"Am I aware that Kaito hung out with a bear recently? Of course I do! That's our buddy Ripper!" *taka laughs as he says this, not at all sounding even the tiniest bit concerned!*

"The two of them get along so well! Why, about a week ago while bro was asleep he grabbed onto one of his paws and Ripper laid there until he woke up! Not only that, but Ripper also helps me patrol the house for any prolonged or excessive mischief! He's such a gentle soul, you should meet him one day and see just how nice he is!"

"H-Huh?! He is?! He even has a name, too..." Kaede just stares in disbelief as she hears him go on. "I-Is that so...?" Just when she thought Kiyotaka's household could not sound anymore crazier, she learns this... she honestly doesn't even know if she should be more surprised that him and Kaito were able to become such good friends with a grizzly than not...

"W...Well I guess that's... good! Ripper sounds like a very nice and helpful bear... I guess it goes to show you that even scary looking animals can have big hearts, huh?" At the suggestion of meeting him, her smile does grow a bit more meek..."Uhh..." but ultimately nods.

"S-Sure! I guess that'll... be fine! Ahaha..." ("I'd feel bad to say no... I just hope Ripper is also nice to strangers, too...")
