The woman had just released another rock and it only skipped once before it sank when Bobby turned. She had tensed for a moment, worried that it might be him, but when it registered in her mind that it was Colche, the woman smiled. The young catwoman was always a nice one to see. "Well hello, Colche! How are you, dear?"
Almost absent mindedly, she turned back to the river as she flicked her wrist and another rock went across the water before it sank to its watery grave.

Colche smiled as she slipped through the undergrowth. She watched bobby toss a stone and giggled. She could do that Pyroth had taught her. Searching for a stone she tossed it in to the water and it bobbed twice before sinking.. she grins "bob stones" she stated simply with a little puurr. She was obviously in better spirits, her blue eyes gglimmered witht he reflection of the sun beating off the river and the bruises that were all too apparant a week ago had started to fade in to none exsistance, though they were still there.
Her tail tip twitched and her ears flickered about a bit before she replied "Good, happy" she puurred wrinkling her nose at Bobby, "Bobby kay?" she tilted her head, she sometimes could tell when people wern't too happy, she liked everyone just to have a smile on their faces, there were worse things in the world, she knew all too well there were worse things.

Cassidy was deep in thought. Her arms were crossed in front of her bare chest--not intending on seeing anyone, she'd given up on shirts for the day. She certainly was no more vulgar than a nude Barbie doll. If she had any intention of heading into the village for long, she would certainly have faced the struggle of clothing.
But here? She didn't expect to find anyone.
So absorbed in her thoughts, Cassidy was almost on top of the two strangers before she noticed them.
"Oh... uh. Hello?"
... why wasn't the younger one wearing any clothes? Oh, right. Neither was she.

Bobby smiled, a little sadly at Colche, "Not very happy, just thinking.... But you are looking much better today; I am glad you are happy."
The woman usually prided herself with good hearing -for a human-, but today two people snuck up on her... her mind was slipping. She needed to pay more attention.
Turning once again, Bobby took in the sight of the newest arrival. Up to that point, she had mostly seen mammals that were far in their transformation. Of course, there was Amaya -who seemed to be adapting, although not the best... and then there was him (Billy) - but she felt he deserved whatever came to him-...
This woman, though... Bobby's heart almost lept to her throat. She was turning into a reptile, but not just any, a snake. And she wasn't really keeping her arms either, they were wings! What a cruel fate the Island had dealt this one.
Bobby smiled and almost sighed at the same time, "Well, hello!"

Colche's blue eyed gaze fell on the new arrival. She didn't know the wom,an, testament to the fact that this island was full of people she didn't know but she was so far on in her transformation that Colche smiled and waved "Hai" she puurred, the tip of ehr tail twitching a little. The fur on ehr neck stood up automatically at the sight of Cas but she stayed still, smiling happily, a slight puurr in her chest.
Looking at Bobby though she gave just a little pout, she didn't like the idea that Bobby was unhappy.
Licking her furry lips she turned to cas again, she supposed this aut to warrent an introduction so she smiled and spoke her name and nothing else "Colche" she stated simply with a little smile, she seemed mostly unphased still by the snake woman though the image of Kaa the cobra from jungle book flickered in to her mind.

"I'm Cass," she said. "Duplex three." She was rather relieved that no one was going to fall into the water this time, or be generally terrified.
It was... encouraging.
"I hope I'm not interrupting. I just came down to... well, not really anything." She fidgeted with her fingers, rather miserably, her arms still firmly crossed over her chest. Her tongue flickered, drinking in their scents, and she added, "I'll leave if you want me to. Really."

Bobby smiled and patted Colche on the shoulder, to put the catwoman's concerns at ease.
When the kitty introduced herself, Bobby almost mentally kicked herself. She was so rude, why hadn't she done that?
She nodded in greating, her eyes bright with welcome, "I'm Bobby, in duplex thirty-four." At Cass's remark, Bobby frowned, thuroughly confused, "Leave? But you just got here. Why would we want you to go?"

Colche giggles and pads forwards her nose wriggling a bit as she walked around the snakey lady, her tail twitching "Like Kaa" she stated with a grin, only she was of course much more green than the brown Kaa from the jungle book. "and parot" her nose wrinkled confusedly "kaa parot" she grinned in a cute kitty manner and grinend "Colche princess Cheetah" she grinned, she loved to tell people that she was acctually a king cheetah but a little girl king was a princess and besides Ambrose had said so. She puurred tilting her head softly, a curious look in those big blue eyes "Me lives, home seventeen" she smiled, her big blue eyes still curiously fixed upon the snake woman though Bobbys angst would have to be sorted out sooner than later, people shouldn't be sad, at leats in her humble oppinion.

"Well, I--" Cass would have blinked in surprise were that still possible for her to do. "I've... startled, more than a few people." Startled was the wrong word, but it was all she could bring herself to say at the moment.
She turned her attention to Colche in some perplexion. "A princess cheetah? That's. Um. Very special. You should be proud." What on earth was... the poor girl. The poor kid was not all there, that much was obvious. She wasn't sure who Kaa might be, though it rang a bell. "I guess I am part parrot..."

Bobby felt she had no reason to really be upset. This was turning to be a good day out, at least for her spirits. Colche reminded her of a young child, and Bobby loved children, heck she had dealt with three and would have had more if it wasn't for her job. As for Cass, well... Bobby didn't feel right to be feeling so upset when others were obviously having it worse.
"There, then," Bobby grinned, "it's settled, you'll stay with us for awhile, for we'll be happy to have you!"
Walking over, the woman grabbed her pack. She was glad she had packed a lot of food. Usually, she wasted some or just kept it for later...she always had food on hand -a habit left over from being a mother for so long. "Alright, I have some food... what does everyone want?" Bobby grinned and winked to the women. Of course, she was assuming they wanted anything.

Colche smiled twitching her tail, she looked at cas again and smiled brightly "kaa a pyfon" she grins and looks at Bobbys pack, that reminded her, she could do with some chocolate cake, she hadn't had her stint for the day. With a grin she padded obver top bobby and peerd around ehr arm at the bag, she couldn't smell any chocolate cake. Pouting a bit she looked between Bobby and cass and gave a sigh of reluctance "No chocolate cake" she stated looking through the trees, she knew if she headed straight thatway she would come out at the cafeteria. with that in mind she grinned at the two "be back, get some chocolate cake" she grinned broadly her mucles tightening as she zipped awa, quuite litterally speeding through the trees, though her foot falls were soon gone and there was no sign of the little cheetah girl in the distance.

Cass watched Colche go, rather perplexed at having been identified correctly as a python. She wasn't sure what Kaa was, though. Maybe just a mispronounciation of her own name? Except it hadn't sounded like that.
She turned back to Bobby. "It's very nice of you to offer, but honestly? I haven't been able to eat anything but rare meat in a while."
And that wasn't even what she wanted, lately. She wanted something warm, and raw, and had until recently been breathing. And that distressed her so much she found herself tugging on her feathers without realising what she was doing.

Bobby slapped her head with emphasis before Colche left, "The chocolate cake! I don't know how that slipped my mind... you get get that..." she chuckled and smiled after the fleeing cheetah.
Turning to Cass, Bobby scratched her head sheepishly, "I must admit, I didn't bring any of that along with me. I wasn't expecting to meet anyone and, well, I am not that much a fan of raw meat, sorry.
Watching the woman tug at her feathers, Bobby jumped forward -dropping her bag- and took Cass's hand in her, "No no, don't do that! I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself."

"It's all right. I ate a while ago, and I can't really chew any--"
Cassidy broke off in surprise when Bobby leapt over to her. "I... I wasn't. Really. I'm okay." There was a startled tongue-flicker. "They're in there pretty firmly... I'm not going to tear them out. Not on purpose. Really."
She drew her hand back, and added, "I'm fine," though she wasn't entirely sure why she had been doing that.

Bobby eyed the woman, although she did allow the hand to leave her grasp -it seemed Cass wasn't comfortable with her holding it-. She was inclined to believe the other woman, though, "Well... as long as you aren't trying to pull them out or anything. I'm sure you still feathers coming out if they are not ready to."
With almost a blush, the woman snorted slightly, "My son would catch pigeons and pull out feathers... he tried to tell me the birds didn't feel it, but I didn't believe him. I made him let the poor creatures go every time."
