bring me a dream // joining

[purgatory]

A small white ear twitched and angled itself in the direction of Jiyu as she spoke. Only when she finish did he turn his cranium to look at her. The way she spoke seemed very professional and although distant, reliable. He wondered if he was jumping to conclusions and assigning her traits he wants to see. He has a habit of doing thing like that, sometimes without realizing it. He also wasn't sure as to what she was talking about being a Vizer, so he was glad she explained it to him mere seconds later. A mind reader? Or was the look of confusion on his face enough? If she was the second in command, to the Pharaoh who is the leader, does that mean she's the adviser to the leader? Is that where they got it from? Interesting. Aside from that, he was glad he was allowed to stay with them- mainly with Talyn and Death. They were around, right? Maybe they were sleeping or something so they were unable to come and greet him? That was fine, of course. Koda would meet them soon enough, that much was inevitable. With a click of his pen, he wrote down a couple of words. "Thanks a bunch!" He couldn't promise he'd be useful but he could do small tasks asked of him. Probably. He wasn't the most proactive when it came to responsibilities, but he did want to impress his older siblings so he suppose he'll do his best. That'll change as he gets older.

Blue eyes abruptly shifted from Jiyu to Rizer as he joined them, the child's grin returning when he called him 'little brother.' This is Death, he thought to himself as his tail began to twitch excitedly. He forced himself to calm down as he gave the older creature a nod of his head. Just as Koda reached for his notebook to write something else down, he immediately stopped when he heard a hiss from beside him. Right! Snake friend! Returning his attention back to his companion, he was going to write an apology but stopped in his action when the snake shook the sand from it's body as it returned to the surface. It then slithered in between and around Koda's legs, it's movements careful leaving the child confused but happy nonetheless. Moments later, his smile disappeared as the snake slithered off leaving him behind without looking back. When he realized it was leaving him, Koda opened his mouth to call it back though no sound came out. Hurt flashed in his eyes as he watched it disappear, a pout on face. Fine. Whatever. He did say he didn't want to take up much of it's time and it did stay with him much longer than he anticipated. It must be a very busy snake. He was glad he didn't give it a name else he'd definitely be crying right now.

Mildly upset with every so slightly drooped ears and tail, Koda looked down at large paws with shrugged shoulders. It was alright. He lost a potential friend but made four in it's place. Five, counting the lion that soon joined them and introduced himself as the leader. The cub tilted his head to one side, then the other as he looked up at Sephiroth as if sizing him up. Moments later, he returned to his usual chirpy self as he dipped his head politely. Reaching for his book, he wrote down a reply before holding it up for him. "It's nice to meet you! Being in charge of everything can be stressful so make sure you get lots of rest so you don't get sick!" It was carefree advise from a young naive child, but it could also be considered a warning coming from Pestilence himself. Or a threat. But judging from the bright smile that parted his maw, it was very much the former.

"on an unrelated note, how do you spell all of your names?" this didn't apply to the other horsemen since he refers to them as what aspect they are, but they must have mortal names too right? koda figured he'd get this out of the way now while he still had all of them present.
