"Something new?" the black haired lass perked up, she really did enjoy learning new things. It as kind of frightening how much she was into doing new things just because they were new, but this was a matter to be discussed later. It seemed that both Kanda and Tomoko took issue with the animal designation Chiyo had let slip from her head while explaining the position that someone like Tomoko would be in if she really wanted to join. "Fuck! I didn't mean to say that outside of my head. Anyways... I think you're a swan. Makes total since to me long necked bird thing, not particularly fast, territorial, loyal... it's what I think of when I look at you. Archaic reference for a female swan, is swanmane. And before anything is said about it, I named myself Chiyo... obviously somewhere in my head, I'm just a bit old... fuck you." she said seeming not to care about anything that could or would be said in reply to her rant about animals. "I don't know what to think about that..." Tomoko said. Beyond this point, Kanda seemed to be thinking a bit, and she wasn't much sure what it was in relation to, though she thought to ask, she didn't do so presently. "Yes, I know, totally goes against what I said a bit ago... but... I am not known for sticking with any sort of line of thought anyways. Plus, she was quite right, I do respect when people and things know what they are and where they stand. She isn't trying to be anything she's not... she's prey and she runs from things that are bigger and better than her. But... she also needs to understand that I have no intention of carrying her while she has such an attitude. If she's gonna want to hang around but run or stop to think about things that scare her, she should at least be able to do so without compromising anyone else. So the middle ground, if she really wants in she has to work for it... my sense of fairness will allow this only if that condition is met, because it is what was required of everyone else." Chiyo finished. Such a conversation was really an odd one to have while a person was standing here. "Kanda-nii, if you're thinking something else... I'd like to know. Mind reading isn't on my list of skills and you were thinking way longer than was necessary for what you said."
