[Len shook his head, then. Nanbei, Hachibei...Or was it Seven and Eight? An image of something cream colored and mussy came to him, and he shook his head.]

...OK, we can try that next.

[And then, he leaned against the back of the couch with a sigh.]

- Rin? Look, it's about Allen, but - I think he must have been really dependent on Rillanne, and not just rank-wise, mentally too, I mean. And he...probably wanted her to be dependent on him as much as he was dependent on her, I think?

[Rin sighed, and patted his head.]

...Sort of textbook co-dependency, yeah. But -

[Aand that was when there was a shuffle, and two critters that looked like bunnycats suddenly thrust their snots out from the sofa the twins were sitting on!]

[Rin eep'd as Eight rolled out from under the sofa, covered with dust.]

...Hullo, Rin - You did call us, right?

[The cream colored critter said with a grin, while the mussy haired one rolled over too, trying to get the dust out of his muzzle. The mussy haired one sighed a bit, then.]

- She'd better have been talkin' bout us - I was plannin' to keep this spare body in storage for the next couple of centuries, after all!
