[Horse reveal aside, the commute is pleasant and surprise-free. Rindo finds himself wishing they could play FanGO on the way, but it'll happen soon enough.
After they sit, it's not long before Rindo spots one of the cats making her way over to him, tail raised high. He raises a hand in Swallow's direction.]
Hang on, look…!
[The approaching feline has short black fur, with white markings on her chest and face. As soon as she reaches Rindo, she starts to rub her face against his ankles. He lowers his hand to her level, slow and steady, first to allow her to sniff it, then to gently pet her around the ears. It seems to be a hit.
Meanwhile, an orange and white tom is padding over to them. His slow, cautious approach is a lot less overt, slinking around chair legs and dodging other customers, but he's undoubtedly headed toward Swallow. Rindo doesn't notice him, distracted as he is by the cat that took a shine to him.]
Didn't even need treats…
[Rindo speaks quietly, his words more of a mutter and not directed at Swallow in particular. There's a little hint of smug pride in his voice.]
