Surprised you're not laughing. Me? Tagging around with a Piltie? Not sure if a younger me would be impressed that she's such a hottie or mad because she's one of the high families. But she's pretty okay, I guess. I'll keep her around.

[she throws her legs up towards the other chair on the other side so that she can have her legs up... but mostly so that she can try to kick Ekko under the table. after that, she tries to nudge at Caitlyn a little bit to make sure she knew she was just joking.]

She knows, or else she wouldn't be here.
