Honestly, Gordon... didn't really want to do the task she had been given by Suiteheart, mostly because being around people made her nervous and she didn't want to look at anybody in fear of being judged. People were kind of forced to look down at her, considering her size, but she just couldn't help but feel a piercing, judging gaze whenever she looked up at somebody. She knew nobody was really judging her, but she couldn't help but feel that nagging feeling that they were.
But a Weekly Task was a Weekly Task and Gordon did need to come out of her shell. She didn't realize that's what Suiteheart was trying to do, she honestly thought the Ecliptic Admiral was targeting her almost. Especially considering the way she called everybody to gather for the Tasks in such a rough tone. "Ah, I-I've got ice cream!" Gordon called out, wincing a bit slightly at the sound of her own voice. She hated it, she hated how vulnerable she sounded. The little she-cat had a cart of ice cream with her, having received help from a kind NPC to carry it towards the center of camp, where she assumed it'd be easier to attract everybody's attention. "But, um, be-before you, um, get one, could you, um, s-state your name and three facts about you?" That would require some people to speak about themselves, right?
Gordon wrapped her tail around her paws, and used one of her forepaws to nervously stroke her tail to try and calm her beating heart. "Um, my-my name's Gordon Cipher and-and, um..." God, what could she say? "My-my brother is Billiam -" He recently joined, she knew that, but she wasn't sure if anybody had met him yet. "- and-and um... We have a mental bond, like... we can sense each others' feelings and emotions." That was two facts, so what could she do for a third? Gordon shuffled a bit, getting a little uncomfortable with the silence she caused by mistake. "Um... my-my favorite color is green." There, she was done for the most part... Now she just had to meet the others and listen to their facts and give them ice cream. Which, by the way, were both normal cones and a couple bars and sandwiches, in case nobody wanted a cone. Gordon went ahead and got a chocolate ice cream cone herself, giving it a lick as she waited.
