Although Tayui wished she had no reservations with meeting a new face, she had puppies now and it would be her duty to keep them safe. But the female's movements and the soft expression on her face put Tayui at ease. Tayui moved closer so she could sit beside the female and keep a better eye on the children as they frolicked near the visitor. Tayui nodded as the female spoke, chuckling quietly to herself. She winked at Noir, who burst out into a fit of giggles. Ocèane gave her sister a strange look, then stuck her tongue out. Noir's giggles intensified and Tayui ended up laughing along.
"It's always good to make new acquaintances," Tayui agreed, nodding once more. "It's a pleasure, Catherine. I'm Tayui Aston. The one giggling is Noir and the girl beside her is Ocèane. That's Claudius and his brother Attila, there," she said, nodding to each one of the puppies in turn. Ocèane nodded back to her and Claudius wiggled forward, curious to see who the visitor was. "Hi's Cat-er-inn!" one of the girls shouted. The two of them skipped back to meet Claudius and Noir nuzzled him in the cheek. He grinned sheepishly, glancing at Tayui and Catherine every so often, and Attila who was (still) grumbling quietly to himself.
