*Whistles*

Wow, I forgot how energetic puppies could be. :D; I've been running around all morning chasing after Inari. Shiro, I think, is miffed that I haven't been spending a lot of time with him lately, so he's on strike and won't help me with the puppy. ^^; I'll have to remind him what a handful he was as a pup...And Inari is his offspring...the obligation will get to him eventually. *Smiles wearily*

On the subject of puppies, there's still one left in the barn with Connie. I hope someone adopts it. It must be lonely down there, all your brothers and sisters adopted already...I know that Master Ridley expressed an interest, and Miss Taki mentioned something about Seed wanting it... *Snickers* Seeing Seed with a puppy would be too amusing for words. And quite cute, an ex-Highland general taking care of a little animal...

Training with Seed has been going very well. Every day I grasp the moves better, and it's starting to feel much more natural to have a sword in hand. *Smiles* Soon I hope to be strong enough to challenge Master McDohl to a spar...it's really important to me that he knows I can take care of Ted. If Seed doesn't tell me soon what he'd like as payment for such a huge favor, I may just have to pick him up something I think he'd like and he'd have to deal with it. :3

Ted said he had the day off today...we're going to go swimming, I think. *Smiles softly* I gave him the ring I bought in Greenhill all that time ago...and he gave me one, too. I was almost expecting him to refuse me. He makes me so happy... *Glowing* ^_^
