Trahearne could hear a thud from around the corner right before the string was pulled from his grip entirely. That was certainly alarming - what if he had just tripped someone with it? - so he rounded the corner in a hurry, only to stop short at the sight of a... cat-person.

While Trahearne did come from a world with a race of feline people, the man in front of him didn't resemble a charr in the slightest. The charr had features that were only vaguely reminiscent of wild cats, for one thing - but this person had triangle-shaped ears just like a housecat, and that was perhaps making Trahearne stare more than the tail was. Aside from the fact that he was also savaging a toy meant for Anani, of course.

"I seem to have made a mistake," Trahearne said in a near-mutter, sounding a little dazed.
