[ They won't! They're just gonna stare at the locks curiously, too afraid to actually touch them. Lia meanwhile, tries to find a good position to relax in Rei's hold, eventually leaning in to her touch... albeit awkwardly. ]

...I see.

[ Mondo's not the sharpest tool in the shed, but he can sense that it's not a thing that Rei really wants to talk about. He's gonna keep it at that and won't prod further if she doesn't say anything else. ]

Well, sure am glad you're all good now! [ (ha ha) He beams at her, patting her head gently. ] Ya can play with 'em anytime ya want to!! 'm sure they'll love your company.

[ He hunkers down then, ushering them to move in front of Rei instead. They don't shy away from Rei, but they don't move any closer either. Staaareeee. ]
