Would Walnut like some too? Was this man daft? First, he should be addressed as your highness and no, he did not want any tea. Walnut continued to swish his tail back and forth, golden eyes flicking towards the THING being held by Burnt-Tire Princess. Yellow people...Walnut always thought they were weird. Just like Peppermint Boy.

"I really hope I am not interrupting," Kurumi said, looking apologetically at Arya. Although, now that Kurumi was here, hearing about sanctuaries didn't seem like such a terrible thing. Kurumi was considering a career in magical creatures as well, so any information was good for her.

Accepting the man's cup of tea, Kurumi shook her head. "Afraid he only drinks filtered water and the occasional small bowl of slightly over room temperature milk." Specia blend of milk to be honest since serving a cat real milk wasn't healthy for them...but Walnut didn't need to know that. Her eyes then widened when he...REACHED out for the cat. Was he really sure that he wanted to do that? Walnut had never taken very well to strangers, especially those of the non-female variety.

"He isn't a kneazle," Kurumi said as she sloooooooooowly pushed the stubby-legged cat towards the professor. Funny how many people thought that he was though. Walnut was just a regular old house cat as far as she knew.

Paws dangling in the air, Walnut's ears went DOWN as he was held in the air. The man's hands BETTER be warm...
