rondo immediately leans down a little as if she is just talking to sweet pate and not to laudna doing the accent. very seriously: ] You have nothing to worry about, good Pâté! I would never. My path is one of protecting those in need.
I definitely mean it! So, if you're ever in need of assistance, I hope that you will allow me to come to you in a time of need, Pâté. And Miss Laudna, too!
[ he beams up at laudna as he says this, just oozing genuine from like every pore in his body, then straightens back up more properly. hehe. ]
So... you're looking for a friend for him? Do you think you'll find what you need in here?
Yes!! I agree, entirely. [ this is a wise and noble statement! about two dead rats. ] When we can bolster each other's strengths, and support each other's weaknesses...! And then, you can find out that you have things in common, after all, and you can bond over that!
[ you would think that this would weird him out but he is like, weirdly chill about it. it's fine. he frowns a little worriedly at her though, gaze drifting to pate as if he is not a dead rat with a skull on his head... ]
...Well, hopefully a friend will help. [ nods!! optimism. ] And there are people here who will surely like to keep him company, too...? I would!
It's alright to be lonely. [a small little smile.] I made Pâté to be my friend and have someone to talk to during a time when I was lonely. He's very good at that.
I - [ well, okay, listen, he's not lonely, he's fine, but also, maybe he's been through some stuff lately, and what laudna says does make his very, very empathetic heart squeeze, so he huffs a little and takes a different tack. ]
.... thank you. [ a good boy. ] ... You're not lonely anymore, though, Miss Laudna?

[she does believe he's genuine about it, she's just sort of uncertain about anyone who does have convictions that genuine.]
I was hoping to find another little rat to be Pâté's new girlfriend.

Oh...! Can I help you look? [ this is going to end poorly probably but by god he'll try ] Is there a certain quality you're looking for...?

Sort of like... opposites go together? That sort of thing. [ yeah... yeah! that makes sense... ] I see...

It's such a nice thought. I worry about Pâté sometimes. So many people find him offputting and he might get lonely.

[she seems so pleased by this.]
Look, Pâté! You made a friend.
no subject
[ it's not any weirder than literally anything he's seen in [redacted]. he's tight with pate now. we are BUDDIES. ]
And... if we can find what you need, then he'll have two new friends! That's a pretty good return, heh.

[she wags her finger at him.]
You press your luck. It's not nice, especially if it's someone lonely like he is.
[if he wants to be friends with pâté this badly, he must be very lonely.]
