[He moves his attention away from her paws once they are withdrawn, a fond smile on his face as he goes back to doling out more under-the-chin rubs. She's really sweet and affectionate in a way that makes him miss Kuro, a dull sad ache somewhere in his chest that throbs just enough to be felt. He hopes the Cat Sídhe is okay wherever he is, as Rin was sure that the last time he'd seen Kuro was well before his Mephisto Brand Reality Check Field Trip.]

I'm a lot better now, don't worry! [He replies to her mew as if they are holding a full on conversation, and he's sure after a moment's thought that Yukio would probably think he was insane if any of this was stumbled upon] I found a family of my own, so I got lucky. Pretty much all I'm trying to say is I'm here for both of you and all, okay? We can just sort of hang out like this whenever, and if you're ever hungry and can't find food anywhere else, just come and get me and I'll make you as much as you can stomach!
