[ this is so funny because jiaoqiu is absolutely not good with dogs in the least, so when the puppy throws itself at chrono, jiaoqiu just deftly steps to the side and lets him be bowled over.
if it were emotionshare there might be some mischief there, but mostly, he's just like (: ]
[ for some reason he doesn't seem to be upset or tense at all. there's just something cheerful and sunny about his disposition. it maybe it a little weird considering... everything. ]
Of course. But you and I share that. Dogs very much do not like me, or at least they find me fun to chase.
[ it is... unsettling, that non-reaction. the casual, bright air that feels completely out of place. chrono studies him with a tilt to his head, a vague frown on his brow, but blinks it away a moment later. ]
...oh. That's gotta be frustrating. [ he looks around them, then, and back to jiaoqiu confusedly. ] Then what're you doin' here? Just passing through?
She and her friends showed up on a sister ship of ours for the Wardance. They helped us solve the borisin problem we were having, so I owe her quite a lot.
Oh - yes. My apologies. The Wardance is a competition where our most talented soldiers duel in front of a crowd. It isn't to the death, to be clear, they're friendly duels.
She - Stelle, her name is - helped fight against the wolf men who aimed to disrupt it.

[ wah. thankyou jq his poor spiral :(

...makes sense. These ones are really big.

Well, yeah. It's bizarre, but in a different way we're used to.

[ someone trying to ruin friendly competition with their own garbage? sounds familiar. ]
Sounds like a good friend to have on side. She bring that train around to visit often, after?
