..I've had major writers block. :(

It took a lot just to write this...booo

Rin smiled up widely at Arthur as they walked to the cafeteria. She really couldn't help liking him. He as nice and handsome and super polite. He was the epitome of a King in her opinion. There was just something about him that drew her to him. She couldn't really put her finger on it. She just had moments. Just moments where she could swear; it just felt...right? That they were almost in perfect harmony. She tried not to think too much about it. After all, her time was finite here. She would enjoy just as much as she could. As she giggled up at something Arthur said- Rin suddenly blinked rapidly as large yellow eyes suddenly took up her entire vision. Tilting her head back, she saw pink hair and then even further up, she saw large ears.

Upon further inspection- they were large fluffy ears.

Fox ears.

Fluffy tail.

Huh.

Rin blinked again as the pink haired fox lady rubbed up against her. Practically entwining herself in Rin's limbs. Atalanta had mentioned there were some other animal inclined heroes in Chaldea and while she had not met all of them. She had certainly not expected one to pop up and unexpectedly be extremely touchy with her. Not that it was unpleasant but definitely outside Rin's comfort zone. Arthur made no move to extract her so at the very least- he didn't seem to think she was in danger. Fighting the urge to slightly freak out at the proximity, Rin took a calming breath before speaking.

"..um, Hello?" Rin said as the tail wove itself through her hair. " I'm Rin."

The fox lady purred in happiness as she continued hugging Rin. Rin threw a look over at Arthur who was apparently talking to Bedivere who had came by sometime while she was distracted. Bedivere walked up cheerfully to her as he tilted his head in acknowledgement to the hero entwined with her.

"Hello Master!" Rin shot him a look as she sputtered to talk as a tail swept across her face. The fox lady turned her head and smiled cheerfully at Bedivere before turning back to Rin.

"I am one of the Tamamo Nine, the Wild Fox, Tamamo Cat! Nice to meet you, my Master!"

Rin for her part did her best to smile as she untangled herself from the hero. Running her hands through her mussed up hair, she smoothed down her uniform as she stepped back. However, as soon as she did, Tamamo slid up beside her again, arms encircling her as she rubbed her face against Rin's. Rin felt like throwing up her hands in defeat as both Bedivere and Arthur just shrugged and made a "go along with it" motion to her.

"It's very nice to meet you Tamamo..." Rin struggled to say. "would it be possible to ...ah let go..just a little?...I could hold your hand instead, perhaps?"

For her part, Tamamo held on for more than a few more moments before reluctantly doing as Rin asked but not before grabbing her hand.

" Time for food? LET's GO!" Tamamo said as she took off with Rin running behind her towards the cafeteria.

Rin called out to Arthur and Bedivere to follow who were apparently content just to stand by and let things unfold. They, being gentleman- of course listened to their master and followed albeit at a much a slower pace. Speaking of how their master was certainly bright today. Yes, indeed she was. Bright and warm like the gentle sun. What a wonderful sight it was to behold.
