King Elk Forest here: a gift for all of your troubles

tweety gave permission to skip queenie for now! :3

the strange looking girl introduces herself as kratha and confirms delight's suspicion that queenie picked her up. hearing her called his girl feels weird, and he almost awkwardly corrects it before he realises she probably means it in a pack sense and not in a.. romantic sense. delight doesn't have girls. at some point during the introduction jomyo's slipped in too and delight gives her a nod in greeting, recovering from the flare of embarrassment he feels.

but anyway. "probably," he says, not flippantly, "is she gonna train you?" normally he asks what skills she can provide etc etc but if queenie's chosen her as an apprentice that's pretty much spoken for. besides, he's never been particularly picky -- between their issues with losing members and their more non-traditional approach to hierarchy (though maybe he should be more picky given the former).
