[CLEO R. C.]

CLEO ROUX-CIPHER

[color=#445544]"Frogs?" Scoffed Cleo upon arrival, [color=#445544]"Toads? Why them of all creatures?"

The little Roux, though an aspiring lady of sorts, was still blunt and to the point, not even hesitating to emulate her mild disgust. She knew she was being slightly hypocritical, the black mamba wrapped tightly around her form a good indicator of that, but still! Frogs and snakes were two totally different entities and... oh my, don't get her started on toads. She thrust her nose into the air as she took a seat, so opposed to frogs and toads yet making no move to carry on with her day and forget that Junji had offered a class on the pair to begin with. Obviously a part of her was intrigued, though she'd never admit it. [color=#445544]"Make sure you speak up when you're talking," Cleo continued lazily, [color=#445544]"I'm half-deaf." Her own voice, wispy and high- so faraway it was often hard to hear - didn't count in her mind. As much as she'd like to, she didn't need to hear herself speak.
