If we're not supposed to dance
Then why all the music?
Names. Weird things. For as long as they could remember, it was a right they did not have privy too.
Wanderer went by many things. Titles, mostly, like Wanderer. Sometimes descriptions like 'dragon' and 'long one' were also used a while ago when they didn't care too much and they could lie easily. Say their parents - they must have parents right?- were eccentric, a bit too much if you asked them, and had named them something brain emptying stupid for a kick. In reality, that memory was long lost. They had no family, no memories, no name to call their own. To give themselves a name felt cheap. Unearned. And so did the grief of these things that were never theirs.
And so, when Alexandre asked her, Wanderer simply lied.
They had simply lifted an eyebrow and watched the tom sniff their drink and push it back towards them, already awaiting the question. They were nearly done with their drink, and it was spicy enough to burn anyhow so they didn't really mind someone sniffing it. Gear turned in her head, trying to think of a funny name while the tom sniffed the cup. However, it was interesting that a random cat came up and sniffed it to begin with. Her head tilted to the side. Odd.
They blinked, jostled from their thoughts when Alexandre asked a question she wasn't sure she had been paying attention too.
"Mika."They replied off handedly.
"What's strange, sweetheart?" She lightly joked, glancing at the cup. "Something in the water?"
Oh no
Hope nothing intresting happens to me
