Kanaya had never really been a hugging kind of troll, but right now it was rather nice. She had initiated it for Nepeta's benefit, but in the end she found herself comforted just as well. Her tears were half bitter, and half forged in joy.
"It's... It's alright. I'm fine. I really am happy to be able to see you all again!" She said, as she pulled back to show Nep that she was smiling. "I'm sorry for scaring you, I'm not sad about this opportunity. but overjoyed." Kanaya wiped her eyes with her hands, then looked at Nepeta pointedly. "Now, no sneaking out of it with distractions and tears. Who is it that you're thinking about that you would conciser wearing something special for?"

"I'm really happy we have you here with us too now," Nepeta assured her, reluctantly allowing Kanaya to pull back from the hug. She wasn't quite sure if she really meant it, if they were just happy tears or if she was only trying to make her feel better. But her friend's smile seemed genuine, enough for the kitty-like troll to grin back at her and pat gently at her cheek once it had been wiped clean of tears,

"Oh! Heehee, that's right, I furgot to answer you about that!" She looked bashful yet happy and definitely rather excited, still in the giddy first rush of her first ever matespritship. "It's Tavros! He told me just a few days ago that he pities me and I realized I felt the same way about him too and we're matesprits now!"

[sylphauxiliatrix]

"Oh, that's wonderful! I'm happy for you both. When did he get here? does he have his robot legs or wheelchair?" Tavros and Vriska are both here... That's not something Kanaya wanted to have to worry about but after the events in Sgrub she couldn't help it. They seemed distant in the veil though, so maybe it wouldn't be anything to worry about. "If I'm going to make you a dress maybe I could make him something nice to match."

"A while befur me, I don't know how long befur exactly! And he has his robot legs! So he can walk and everything and he's really really happy about it! We play together all the time, even running and chasing, and sometime he picks me up and carries me too!" She beamed as she thought of how much more confident Tavros seemed now that he could walk again and wasn't reliant on anyone. If anything, for a while she'd very much been the one relying on him, after the double shock that was waking up here after her own death and Equius breaking up with her.

...and don't even start her on the subject of Vriska, Kanaya. "I think he'd like that! The top part will have to fasten up especially fur him though, beclaws of his horns. Unless it's a shirt!"

[sylphauxiliatrix]

She won't start Nepeta on that subject if Nepeta won't start Kanaya on that subject! Though in the coming weeks Kanaya might find that she has quite a bit more to say about it than most, for no she has no problem keeping quiet about Vriska. "Don't worry, I've designed around awkward horns before. The practicalities of an outfit can be just as important as making sure the clothing complements the shape of the person and their horns."

[bestestfurrend]

Nepeta is completely happy for the subject not to be started by either of them! And therefore the subject of their least favourite spider troll was avoided for a while at least. "Yes, yes, you're right of course, and you know all about clothes so I'm sure you'll make it purrfectly! Ohhh, what are you going to make him? Something dashing??"

[sylphauxiliatrix]

"I haven't really given it much thought yet." Kanaya said. Raising an eyebrow and shooting the cat-obsessed troll a sly grin, she continued, "Dashing, huh? Is that the sort of thing you would like to see him in?"

[bestestfurrend]

"I think Tavros looks good in anything!" she says, laughing. And she means it too - when they're in their hive they spend half their time in Pupa Pan and Tiger Beetle costumes, or lounging around in comfy pyjamas as they build themselves gigantic piles for snuggling in. And Tavros always looks like the cutest thing ever to Nepeta. "But I know that something dashing would make him happy to wear it!"

[sylphauxiliatrix]

"Alright, I'll trust your judgement on that. Once I get a workspace ready so I can start, I'll have to have the two of you come in for measurements. It'll be fun!" Kanaya was still getting used to the fact that her friends had been here for so long. It sounds like Tavros has grown a bit out of his old self. She could only hope that Vriska has experience a similar maturation. At the very least she'll give Eridan the benefit of the doubt. He's been here for a while, and so has Karkat. She can't just expect everybody to be the same as they were.

[bestestfurrend]

"It will be! Oh, Kanaya, I can't wait!" She sounded suspiciously excited, given that being dressed up was hardly the kitty troll's idea of a fun time, but all she could think about was spending time with her friend and her matesprit; anything could be made fun when she was with the people she liked, right?
