Gale let his ears fall flat as he stood before her. He would not, and could not, sit while a higher ranking canine sat before him and did not give him permission to sit. Yvette seemed not to care much and sat herself down beside her uncle, staring at the cat that was perched besides the woman. He had not seen her, or the cat, before, so he assumed she was newer. But she smelled familiar, in a vague kind of way, as though the presence had been around a while but gone. Or he was entirely confused about it. It was such a muddled mess in Rome that he no longer bothered to care much on scent distinctions.
"Gale. You are a domina. Mistress," he said gently, chancing a glance from the woman to the slave child beside him. She hardly seemed to notice she was a slave whenever she was not around Siv; that woman demanded a high level of respect and it was terrifying to think of what she could do. Yvette understood her place there. "A lynx? A companion, I see," he said thoughtfully, wondering if the small cats the pack seemed to keep around were like that one, or like the cats that the Romans liked in their houses. Big cats were to fight, to kill for their pelts if they could be caught without tearing the hide to shreds. This seemed to be a pet. "A pet?"
