Though probably not entirely appropriate, Maki couldn't help but let out an impressed ooooh when they were both finally close enough to take in the sight of one another. Was it rude to think he looked cool? That she wished any of her character designs looked half as interesting as he did, all earthy with cool tones mixed in with warm. And gosh he had such a laid back way of speaking, all friendly but not too friendly, you know? If her rattie buddy was here she would have hastily told the rodent to take notes! Inspiration came from anywhere after all, she had to stay on her toes.
"It's cool innit?"She cheeped, tail wagging high. "Thought you were a ghost n'd all." And maybe she was a little disappointed that he wasn't, just a smidge. But she was quick to brush past that, she hadn't met too many strangers in her year on this spinning rock in space and she probably ought to do something about that, right?
