What an odd fellow. The more she talked to him the more Sabine was convinced that she was dealing with a ah, unique creature. That wasn't necessarily a bad thing. It did, however, make it all the more interesting. ”Indeed,” she said before quipping, ”I've lost many a cousin that way.”
Judging by his reaction Sabine was certain he hadn't seen Aki. It was a shame, but not unexpected. She didn't know if he'd never wandered this far south. ”Mmhm,” she confirmed, ”Like a pig.” Aki would probably frown on being compared to a pig. If he tolerated the comparison at all he'd probably prefer something a little less demeaning like 'boar' but where was the fun in that?
Are you going to eat him???" Sabine was quick with a response, her voice rising in mock indignation. ”Of course not!” A beat, then wryly, ”He'd taste terrible, I'm sure.”
