[Oh.................. pup. Very unfortunate that Jason is a dog man. He regards the wolf-dog respectfully, but glances at Kaeya again.]

What, someone actually only had a two week? I'm shocked. I thought I was the only fuck here who hadn't been somewhere for about eight weeks of my life.

[Okay, well, he can't stand it. He nods at the wolf-dog with his chin.]

Friend? Can I pet?

Yes. Sylvain and the... skinny young gentleman that sticks close to him. The one with the funny last name? Debeste? They came from some sort of "group study" from what I was told.

[ glancing down at polaris, who meets him eye to eye in turn. he may not be able to speak and their tether may be gone, but some things never really change. ]

Yes, you may. It wasn't always the way... touching someone else's daemon was rather taboo in the last place we were. But things aren't quite the same as they were before. So.

Sebastian. [It isn't a correction, just a "yeah, I saw that guy" acknowledgment.] A study group, huh.

[It's not a question. Interesting.

Carefully, he squats down where he's at. If the wolf-dog wants to come to him, that's on the wolf-dog; he won't press forward, but he does hold out a hand in offering. Sniff? He doesn't know how daemon's work for people.]

A familiar? Makes sense if it's a part of you. Don't really want people touching all on your soul, do you?

[ well daemons now are literally just smart animals, no talkie, no brain sharing, so polaris pads forward. he was friendly in nature when traveling amongst the watchers, and that doesn't seem to have changed. kaeya does watch, taking a sip off his flask before responding. ]

A perfect word for it. By the end, we'd all grown so close, it didn't matter anymore.

[ sniff check passing, polaris huffs and nudges his hand gently. ]

It seems that Pol doesn't mind strangers around here petting him though. Likely something to do with what this place has done to our abilities.

[A cute pup. When he passes the sniff check, he reaches up to scritch both sides of the wolf-dog's neck with two hands. Like a kind of affectionate ruffle.]

Someone's a good boy.

[He glances pointedly at Kaeya. Hehe.

He gives the dog a ruffling pat on the noggin, but doesn't annoying it by over petting.]

You know anyone else here?

[ he's never advertised himself as being a good boy, so he just chuckles a little at that. polaris is content, letting out a series of soft little grumbles of happiness, tail wagging. ]

Five others, yes.

You?

[A good puppers! Jason likes this doggo actually. It sucks being a dog man. He eases back up into a stand.]

Not a soul. [Ha ha.] Five people, but you won't name them?
