The Snakette wondered if it was worth the shot to even ask.
Speaking of which... where was her kneazle bby? Claudine peered about, looking for him. She murmured hellos to the ones that weren't napping. But where was President? Was he hiding somewhere?
Hanging out with the creatures were another thing he had come to enjoy this term, now that he was pushing his comfort zones and had been spending more of the term outside of his own common room. The creatures didn't ask questions when he talked to them. They didn't judge him or think he was a bad person. They didn't have any drama.
Actually, he kind of wished he was one of them.
Today though he intended to do more than just talk to them. He wanted a better coping mechanism for things that swarmed in his mind. So he was trying to take a page out of Ash's book and attempt drawing. He had zero talent, but she'd encouraged before that he'd never get better until he practiced. He was sitting among a group of kneazles, sketching them out the best he could. He could vaguely hear someone also saying hello to some of the other creatures, so he spun his head to see Claudine.
"Hello." He had to call it a little loud as he wasn't sure she could hear from where she stood.
