not quite meet the parents

Spirit was surprised that Void was late to make his return but he trusted his brother with all of his heart. He wouldn't worry or fret over him being late for too long; he was more capable than Spirit himself was and he had no doubt he could fend for himself with little issue. Spirit worried often and plentifully but when it came to his siblings he felt safe, and found that those thoughts didn't plague him quite as often. But still he felt a familiar wave of relief, warm and comforting, wash over him as he heard Void's approach. His paws came first, then his voice - though he was not alone, a suspicion only confirmed when he stood and twisted around to face Void and... someone else.

He was here to help. Spirit couldn't help but feel uneasy in the company of a stranger but he'd accept Void's words as truth. He nodded, forcing a small smile as he shook out his coat and tried to properly face the stranger. "H-h-hello," he stammered, his voice even more unsteady than usual. His stutter never fully left, even around his siblings, but they certainly helped dampen it. Around a stranger, though? Speaking without it was hopeless. "N-nice to meet you. I'm Spirit," he nodded slightly, gaze averting to Void as he fell quiet and waited for Gloom to introduce herself.
