S-She... She slept beside my corpse... all this time...? Oh Clare... She probably noticed my tail...
Cassy giggled and licked Setcho's nose. "But you gave it to me, so it is," she said, snuggling him gently.
Clare opened her mouth to say something, then looked to the side, thinking hard. She was silent for a moment; during this time, she slowly started to blush.
