ALL I FOUND THE SPACE BETWEEN THE SPACES
STANDING IN THE NOTHING, AND TIME RECLAIMS YOU

When Vayne had been one of the first to approach Michael for one of Princess's babies, the dealer had been understandably pretty glad. He knew that Vayne was a surprisingly kind and gentle soul, especially considering her family. The bobcat trusted her to take care of Silv well, and knew he'd always be willing to help when she needed it. Plus, it wasn't exactly hard for him to find her, considering she had been taken in by his sister and her wife.

He had actually been heading for Diya's home to say hi when he saw Vayne, along with Silv. A cheerful smile came to his face as soon as he saw them, moving over and sitting beside Keona as he purred, "Hello there, Vayne. I'm glad that you and Silv seem to be getting along." He really was glad, considering how much he cared for his rats and their children. It was because of this that he ignored Morrison's comment, figuring the other was just being ignorant. Surely he had heard of pets before, right? If he hadn't, then he must've had quite a sad life – Michael couldn't imagine being half as happy without the companionship of his mischief of rats.

Looking towards Silv himself, the jet black bobcat smiled and said, chuckling, "Well, at least he seems to like the cheese. A couple of mine are more picky eaters, and they like more unusual little snacks." It was a bit of a pain, when he had to go scouring the territory for one thing in particular for one of his pets. Michael then mentioned, laughing and shaking his head a bit, "Just, uh... be sure not to overfeed him. If he starts shaking you down for treats, he could end up getting sick pretty easily." Thankfully, Vayne didn't seem like the type to overfeed him too much. She might've been quite the softy, but she also wouldn't want Silv to get sick.
