[While it isn't odd at all for Kalika to be doing the rounds in the training hall, it IS odd that she's leaning against the wall closest to where you're practicing, and primarily fixing her attention on you.
She's not about to just step in and interrupt you, though. She'll wait until you've got a free moment to come around.]
[ Yulia and her current sparring partner both notice Kalika watching them--her, so they call it a draw. Her partner moves on to someone else while she makes her way to Kalika.
She nods to her in greeting. ]
Good morning, Magistrate. Is there anything I can help you with?
[ Yulia catches up and matches Kalika's pace, her hands clasped behind her back. She'll just be silent and wait. If there was anything that Kalika needed from her, it would come up. Eventually. ]
She did seem like the only one who could handle you.
[Half-teasing, but also with an undertone of understanding. It's almost like she totally gets what you mean because she might have BEEN that girl in the past.]
[ She tilts her head back a little. From what she can tell, Kalika might be a hardass, but compared to her, the Magistrate does better at socializing ]

She nods to her in greeting. ]
Good morning, Magistrate. Is there anything I can help you with?
no subject
[Straightening up now.]
I want some company on perimeter patrol. An'yu isn't available this time, and my husband's out again.
no subject
Alright. [ She leaves the unasked question hanging in the air: Why me? ]
no subject
[And she's already pushing herself off the wall and heading towards the exit. If you don't ask, she's not gonna explain~]
no subject
[ She'll... have to ask later, then. Subtly. She'll figure out why, one way or another.
It doesn't take too long for her to gear up and join Kalika at the gates. ]
no subject
We'll walk. Best to take this sort of thing slow anyway.

no subject
Walk beside me. I can hardly talk to you that way.

She did say she had to rescue the girl partnered with me. [ Well, not exactly, but yeah. Pretty much. ]
no subject
That does sound like a Cisco thing to say.
[Speaking with open fondness of the Reynardi now. Whodathunk, given the fact that Kalika is kind of really a jaguar.]
no subject
I like her. I did not think we would get along.
no subject
[She can guess, but it well. Conversation is always a Thing.]
no subject
I am not the type to get along with everyone, Magistrate.
no subject
Fair enough. I think that's something that you and I have in common, though.
[And giving you a smile of her own.]
no subject
I don't think I see that.
no subject
[Oh. Wait.]
Okay, so I'm STILL wild. But now I'm also old.
[Heh.]

[Chuckles.]
Anyway, being human takes practice for people like us. Cisco helped me a lot with that... she was one of my first friends outside of Zangyaku.
no subject
[ She's amused, smiling. She knows she probably does need a few more friends, and Cisco is definitely a friend to her as well. ]
no subject
[So very amused.]
It's hard to believe that I was so angry at her for a time. I had my reasons, though.
