Kamui's going to just... stay quiet and watch the conversation happen.

Bursts through the door,

Niles !

[O-OH, BOY-- Kamui is definitely preparing themself for this running reptile--]

[TUMBLES OVER] x.com/and_niles/stat…

W-Was I gone for too long...?

W-Wha-- (Ten years? What...) ...Aah. [Alright, now they're just petting Niles. What a big ol' wagging tail!]

O-Oh, thank goodness... I was so sure that I didn't sleep for that long! [Continues to pet!! So many pets!]

W-Well... Sometimes, things just kind of... happen? I guess... [sweating emoji]

...Ah, well! It doesn't matter anymore... I'm here! And, even better-- You're also here, too!

I love you. x.com/and_niles/stat…

I LOVE MY DAUGHTER.

"Kana! How are you? Whー What have you been doing? Anything new? Tell me anything!"

"Awh... W-Well, that's alright! I believe you. How big was it?" Small chuckling.

"W...ー Wow, that's pretty big! I bet the lizard was easy for you to catch, huh?" Kamui's definitely being an enabler to her.

"Exactly! The lizard was lucky to have been able to escape, huh?"

"Yeah... I guess it was only but fair! It might have a family to take care ofー Just like how I have you and Nina to take care of!" Here comes a big ol' embrace! x.com/OutlawedDragon…
