"What were you even doing in the area that Gold Ship felt she had to extract you? - don't worry about why she shares a name with a johtohan Rapidash, by the way. Do we need to be concerned?"

" Truthfully, I was buying some perfume- it's cheaper to buy it in person than have it imported. " Geeta admitted, her posture fixed now so she was sat upright. " It's my own fault, really. I underestimated how desperate the wolves are so to speak. "

This was... admittedly, actually a good place to hide a whole woman - although not permanently. There's very few people brave enough to mess with her in her own home, let alone societally.

" I wasn't expecting to find myself here in your home, " She finally admitted, finding the nearest place to seat herself so she could lean forward- face in hands. " Yes. Coffee. That would be great. Thank you. "

As the elevator reached the bottom, he was already stepping off as if he could smell where they were going, only to abruptly stop and stare out at the desert. Were his back not to Geeta, she would see Kats' pupils narrowing in manner similar the a dragon's or felines. It was brief, but he caught the scent of something dangerous out there...

" The restaurant is just down this road. That particular dish is fettucini alfredo with mushrooms, " She finally spoke up once more, trailing off in the direction she had mentioned. If this was handled quickly, then she could return to work sooner. " Come now, let's get you a meal- on me, of course. "

“Togedemaru!” They exclaim, snapping their fingers. “They’re these, uh, round little fu — things, ma’am.” Ree gestures with their hand, “pointy but cuddly. Mo has one, he named it Orange Juice.”

Thinly veiled excitement laced her tone as she went on to ask another question, " Where might I find one? "

" It is entirely up to you to speak or not. Do you trust yourself to do so? " Geeta came to a halt on the elevator, waiting for Katsuya to join her. She went on to pause for a second before she pressed the button to go down. " I can vouch for the food here. It's wonderful. "

"But mushroom pasta sounds good right now~"

" There is no need to explain this to a stranger such as myself, " She said, pushing onward toward the nearest elevator so she might continue to guide him in the right direction. " After all, your health comes first. It seems as if that teleportation takes a toll on you. Let's get food, then figure out where to go from there. "

"You smell a lot like Iris!"

" I see, " The initial response came in a curt tone. It was a side effect of how she felt about the situation at hand. Even if he had said something so bizarre about a peer she knew, Geeta had to push it forward. Guide him to somewhere else- possibly away from her before it got any weirder. " I'm certain you could get something with mushroom in it in the city. There should be a restaurant that serves alfredo and mushrooms. "
