A shy girl (Umbreon and Almyra)

Almy's eyes widened a bit as Chloe said she loved animals. That seemed like something they could really get talking about. They could talk about their favorite ones, pets, least favorite ones, ones they're afraid of, cute ones. Lots of options to get to know this nice, but shy girl. "Really? What's your favorite kind of animal? Do you have any pets?" She hoped the girl had pets. It would be fun to meet them maybe. Especially if they could talk. Almy had met some talking animals before and it was really interesting. She leaned toward Chloe a bit as she was very interested in the conversation.

Chloe smiled and said, "Yeah, I have a...." Chloe was trying to say before she was interrupted by a flying pink cat which sat down next to her. "Where were you Chloe!" Gwen said as she looked at Chloe then to Almyra. "Oh, so you met a friend?" she said hoping Chloe actually talked to someone.

Almyra's eyes grew wide as Gwen the exceed flew down next to Chloe. She had never actually seen an exceed before. "A flying kitty that can talk!" Almrya squealed out in delight. It was so cute! She wanted to hug it. She smiled widely at Gwen. "Hi! I'm Almyra!" The kitty's question made her think a bit. She wondered if Chloe had any friends. She would be happy to be her friend. She hoped Chloe wanted to be friends with her. She was nice and would make a good friend.

Gwen smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Gwen, nice to meet you." Gwen said holding her paw out for Almrya to shake. "So did you introduce yourself Chloe?" Gwen asked hoping Chloe introduced herself well enough. "Yeah I did." Chloe said with red cheeks at her chatterbox cat.

Almyra happily shook Gwen's paw. "It's nice to meet you, Gwen, and it was nice meeting Chloe, too. You're both really nice and pretty!" Almyra said to the two. She wasn't exactly sure what to talk about, especially now that Gwen was here. Maybe she should ask her what kinds of things exceed liked to do.

"So Almrya, what brings you around here? You don't seem to be a in a guild?" Gwen said as she started sitting in Chloe's lap as she pet her. Meanwhile Chloe was sitting happily that her cat was now here to talk for her.

Almyra smiled and shrugged. "Exploring. I like to wander around and see pretty places and people. It's fun! Chloe and I bumped into each other so I followed her to talk to her, then took her back to the guildhall."

Gwen instantly looked at Chloe and put on a mixture of a disappointed and surprised face. "You forgot where the guild is already?" Gwen said as Chloe instantly became embarrassed and looked down ashamed. "Yeah, im sorry for bothering you Almyra." she said sadly.

Almy smiled at Chloe comfortingly and put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't be sorry, Chloe. It was fun meeting you and helping you get back." She turned Gwen. "Well, wouldn't it make sense for her to forget it quickly, since she had only been here once?" She asked, not defending Chloe or trying to argue with Gwen, but just saying what she thought made sense.

"That is true." Gwen said calmly as she jumped onto Almyra's head started looking around the local area. "Well if you want Almyra you can come visit me and Chloe's home?" Gwen said as she gave Chloe a go with it look.

Almyra giggled as Gwen landed on her head. "Really? That would be fun!" She smiled widely and reached up to pet the cat. She was tempted to just pick her up and hug her. She was just so cute! Almy hadn't really considered if Gwen would like it or not.

"Alright, Chloe, lead her to our place" Gwen said as she sat on Almyra's head. Chloe got up and smiled as she started walking. She lead her slowly and nervously down the street, eventually arriving at the small house and opened the locked door.

((Look at my house thread to see what it looks like))

Almyra happily followed Chloe. Giggling as Gwen rode along on her head. The cat was truly a great source of amusement to her. She was tempted to hop and bounce to see how well she could balance, but decided that would be kind of mean. Plus if she surprised Gwen, she may claw her head trying to hold on. They arrived at Chloe's house, though, and thoughts of the cat on her head vanished as she looked around, then smiled at the Dragon Slayer. "You have a pretty house! It's nice and small and cozy!"

"Thanks, but you should really thank Gwen. She's the one who picked it and cleans it all the time." Chloe said as she lead Almyra to the living room. "Well im not gonna let you keep it a pigsty!" Gwen instantly defensive as she flew off Almyra's head and closed and locked the door.

Almyra continued to look around the house with a smile. She was a bit surprised that she had one to be honest. She thought that most people lived in their guildhall. She giggled a bit at Chloe and Gwen. It was clear that the two were good friends. "Either way, it is a very nice home. So what sorts of things do you like to do at home?"

"Uh, I like to swim, and read, and cook." Chloe said quietly thinking about what she actually does all day. Most of her time is spent out and about with Gwen and she barely gets anytime to relax. And even if she is away from Gwen, her team would call her and tell her to get ready for a job.

"All of those things are fun. I don't get to do the other two very much. But I do write and draw a lot!" Almyra replied to Chloe. Well she sort of cooked, if one counted burning a few animals one had caught in the wilderness over a fire without any spices to be cooking. Books were fairly scarce when one was traveling as well. Luckily she had the book and pen her sister had given her. They were especially nice to have on the journeys in which she was alone with no one to talk to. She looked at Gwen. "What about you? What do you do for fun?"

Gwen smiled and started listing very repetitive things like eating fish, cooking fish, smelling fish and things of that nature. Eventually she stopped her babbling and went to get a fish from the fridge and started eating it, getting hungry from talking. Chloe smiled and said, "Sorry about her." she said blushing and looking down.

Almyra giggled as Gwen went on and on about fish. She listened patiently to all of it though, seeming to simply enjoy the sound of her voice. She smiled at Chloe when she tried to apologize. "It's fine. I like listening to people. You're both really nice. So have you been on any adventures before joining Fairy Tail?"

"Yeah, a few, but nothing to write home about." Chloe said as Gwen came back and flew onto Almyra's head and ate a fish. Chloe smiled and said, "What about you, want kinda adventures do you do on?" Chloe said wondering what it was like to not be in a guild.

"All adventures are fun, though." Almyra said with a smile. She had to think up a good response to Chloe's question. She had been on a lot of adventures. "Well, I'm sort of always on one, since I'm always wandering and exploring. Usually that's what my adventures are. Climbing a mountain I see or exploring a forest. Sometimes I even visit ancient ruins." Gwen landed on her head again and ate a fish. Almyra giggled and reached up to grab her, wanting to give her a hug.

Chloe smiled and said, "That sounds fun... I just live here." Chloe said smiling once she saw Gwen land on Almyra's head and then fly down into her lap and offer a piece of fish. "Want some?" Gwen said as she held a piece of fish up to Almyra.

"It's a nice place to live, though. And you can always leave to explore places." Almy said. She shook her head at Gwen's offer of fish. "No thank you." She hugged the cat though. She could no longer resist the temptation. Gwen was just too cute.
