Kris resisted the urge to facepaw, and keeping his tone light he replied, "Didn't you say something about Angelo walking your dog, back when you nearly fell on me in the cafeteria? Unless you were making that up, but I suppose that's the least of trust issues between us. You should give yourself some credit though, sly as you are." He purred in the only the feline way of laughter.
"Ah, well...I do have to apologize for how I've communicated myself to you recently," Kris began his shift in attitude, tail twitching nervously, "I do regret following Angelo and you around just to exploit your Duel Avatars for BP; I swear blackmail was the least of my concern, and I would never ruin someone's life on purpose except in self-defense, not even revenge. The hacker changed everything, and ironically without it I wouldn't have had a chance to hold conversation with you, and well - uh...you, I mean I really...like how you portray yourself...ah, sorry it's been a while since I've talked with girls on a personal level." He was so glad that his orange fur easily hid his reddening face.
"Anyways...if you don't mind, I want to talk to you about something else that's personal. This maybe a subject I have no say in, but it's about Angelo. I know how dismissive I was this morning (again I'm sorry), and Angelo may have followed my suit, but...I didn't tell him I was going to talk with you tonight. Just a gut feeling, but I feel something else is going on between the two of you, especially from a Guardian/Protoge perspective...if nothing's the matter then I won't pry anymore than I already have."
