It didn't take a lot of self-awareness to understand that she was not a charming individual, much less in the eyes of a child, and she did not doubt her ability to make an issue ten times worse by simply extending a more... brutal alternative to her clanmates' words. And yet, she strayed closer nevertheless, nothing but muted curiosity dancing in vivid golden eyes. Another stranded kitten looking for their mother? How many of these things were they going to take in? She was already on edge following Titan's sudden disappearance and loathed the idea of handling this clan alone. She was not fit to be here, but she could not leave.

So she merely fixated her attention upon Atticus, cold expression not once wavering. Agathe did not offer sympathy or compassion to anyone let alone a kitten in dire need of its mother. As much as she desired the respect of her people, the Astral Seraph was not willing to sacrifice that much of her personality. Not yet. Maybe not ever. "Can you take care of it?" She inquired bluntly, a single brow arching up, "Somebody is going to have to." The snow leopardess did not believe for one moment that Coriander's mother would return for him. Rodion's hadn't- why should she expect anything different? Heaving a sigh, the cloaked girl would turn a sharp gaze upon Cori, contemplating her next words very carefully. "I'm Agathe," She finally settled with, looking especially grim as she rolled her shoulders, "We'll take care of you."
