If that time comes you are more than welcome to sail with me. I hope your time at the convent finds you well enough. And that I will meet you again.

Dio looks surprised.
"You are not leaving yet.. are you? I mean. I would love to hear more of your adventures sir."
She looks a bit worried to the mansion then to the gate.
"I could use some good stories to keep me company in the convent."
She leans in a bit closer. "It isn't the most fun or pleasant place to stay."

"No, I am not leaving. I thought you were. Want to see something interesting. I can show you something I learned in shadow." If you say yes Dirk shifts into his cat form and leans against you softly. He purrs for you.

Dio says indeed yes and when Dirk shifts and leans against her purring she smiles nuzzling her face into Dirk's fur. Her slender arms on his fur.
She fights back tears but when she pulls her head back its clear that a few tears had escaped.
She smiles though.
"If you promise not to hunt me i'll show you one as well."
Dio shifts slowly in a great white heron. Fluttering her wings and shaking her head she does a few graceful steps before shifting back.
Before she is fully shifted back Dio plucks a white feather which was still between her hairs and holds it before Dirk.
She sits next to him leaning against his warm fur.
"A young girl showed me those beautiful white birds in a dream. I studied them and after some trying i can shift into a big version. She showed me a sense of freedom i often enjoy revisiting. Knowing i might never be free."
Turning the feather between her fingers she smiles.
"If you take this feather of me. Perhaps in that way i can travel in a way with you. Would you do that for me?"

Dirk nods and stays in cat form for as long as you wish. He snuggles and purrs soaking up your hugs. His eyes close slowly as he gives you a blink of affection.
When he returns to his human form he says "I will cherish your feather. You are more than welcome to travel with me any time you desire."
He places the feather in a safe place and offers you a hug if you want.

Dio enjoys the cathugs and purrs.
Her slender fingers softly scratching behond the ears
When the cat hugs are done and Dirk takes the feather she nods.
"Thank you. At least part of me will be traveling with you."
She holds her arms.out for a hug. Enjoying wvery bit of pleasant physical interaction before having to return to the convent.
""Perhaps one day when i might be allowed to leave i can travel really with you. I would so then try to meet friends i had seen in my dreams."
She gestures tk where Dirk now keeps the feather

"You will always be welcome in my life or my dreams." He hugs you softly but close.
"If you ever want to run away let me know I will be there for you in a heart beat."
You get all the hugs you need or want.

Dio releases the hugs after a bit. She smiles and lets out a soft sigh.
"You know, i have thought of running away alot. It is not pleasant jn the convent and i had hoped now i am trained by Lord Suhuy that i was finally free.
But MotherSuperior said. That when the time is right and when i am ready my parent or parents will come collect me. That i have to be patient that that time will come soon."
She looks at Dirk.
"So untill then i wait. Until i can wait no longer. "

Don't be patient. What has that gotten you but a lot of loneliness and isolation.
Dirk lets you hug. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

A soft sigh.
"It is not my time yet. Not yet. But ny patience is running out yes. Perhaps one day i stop waiting. "
Dio looks at Dirk a warm smile.
"Just don't forget me i guess. As long as some remember me i won't be in the convent for my whole life. Or at least not forgotten."
She shakes her head "Sounds silly i know."

Dio smiles relieved, and happy that Dirk seems to understand.
"Ah thank you, why not. Soon i won't be able to enjoy a sense of taste either anymore." She chuckles but its hinted with a painful realization

Dirk hands you a flask made out of coconut shell. It has very strong rum in it. "Keep it in memory of me."

Dio admires the strange material its made of. She also takes a sip. But when he says to keep it. She shakes her head "In the convent i am not allowed to have possessions. They'll take it from me. And i lose it the moment the nuns make me.change. "
Her fingers play with the hem of her dress.
"Even this dress is not allowed. Lord Suhuy said the potato sack, as he called it did not fit me. So he gave me.this. but when the nuns are here i have to.change again and no possessions i can bring."
She holds it out back to Dirk.
"Keep it safe for me please. I will find you if i can when i am free."

"I will be waiting for you. I promise to do my best to keep your coconut and feather safe. "
Dirk shifts back into his feline form and leans up to purr in your ear.
