Nyarien's gaze locked on Leena and all but drilled holes into the back of her skull.<span style="color: #006600">"Leena, you knew I was pregnant when you invited me to move in. This... neither of us are some new revelation to you. Why now? If you felt this way from the start, Naori's pregnancy could have been terminated safely and I could have gone back home. Why would you wait until... now?" </span>The tip of Nyarien's tail was swishing idly but she otherwise remained silent until spoken to.<span style="color: #ff0000">"You're throwing away a loving and devoted pet, because she'sss pregnant. Because YOU let her get pregnant. And you're kicking out thessse two that you invited in and not only that, the day after you told Laurence to quit his jobs.

There's nothing she can do to you that Whisperia can't undo, but Whisperia can't bring the dead back to life. I'm not willing to lose my pet because her instincts are still wild."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
