Yumi had been chasing the cat for some time now. It didn't look like it had been fed in a while, with a thin body to it and a dark brown pelt which gave the impression it had been sleeping in mud for weeks. To a normal person, it would look like a deranged woman chasing a stray cat down the street, but from her perspective it was an epic chase where she jumped over obstacles like boulders (tiny rocks), thorn bushes (piles of leaves) and dangerous dogs which were out to get the cat (who knows?).
The girl enjoyed chasing cats, she seemed to have a strange interest in them which most people didn't understand, or have. But they were cute and made noises similar to her so they had to have some sort of similarity. Her theory was that if she caught the cat she could get 100 years good luck, but it was a rumour she'd heard from somewhere, so who knew if it was true? As she ran along she began to lose balance a little, too much exercise never did her much good, but she kept her eyes on the kitty.
The cat began to run through crowds of people, which she happily followed, not really minding what people thought of her, or actually noticing the people in the first place. She generally wasn't a person who noticed people that didn't interest her in some way, with of course some exceptions. Smiling like a mad(wo)man, she attempted to follow the cat between someone's legs. Naturally being the one and only Yumi, she instead fell at the feet of the person, and lay there on her belly trying to reach out to the cat like some sort of beached sea creature, just with arms. Her groaning to try and reach the cat which kept moving away slowly got quieter before she pouted and just lay there.

Commander Pretty Blonde Boy had demanded that remain home, yet that was impossible to accomplish. First, she lived in an inn. That meant having to get her own meals on a daily basis, and the food the Dusty Drapes supplied was not quite cutting it for the noble.She needed something healthier. Not that she was being particularly stuck up that day, but everything was drowned in either fat, salt, or sugar. Not something Guinevere ever felt the need to eat, she needed fresh vegetables and fruit. That sustained her. Meat once in a while, but that was rare and reserved to white meats usually. Today was one of those rare days, and a day she had happened to grab a bit of particularly appetizing looking fish. Her own cooks would be handling the cooking of the fish. But they were excellent cooks. Guinevere was snapped from her thoughts in a unsettlingly familiar way. Someone was again at her feet. But to see a woman, white white hair beneath her was certainly different. Especially as they looked as if they were prepared to keep crawling under her skirts. A feline brushed across the other side of her foot, sniffing at the bag carrying the fish. " Uhh, Miss. Is there something you needed?" Mouth formed into a slight frown. She had nothing to hide under her skirts, but it was a little uncomfortable to have someone that close and up in her private space. Her knees crossed out of instinct. Adrian looked on with little more than passing amusement. There was not an obvious threat here, and the Lady had been well behaved on the previous grocery trip. This was only her second trip out of the inn in several days. A little distraction wasn't the worst thing that could happen. Tom was off gathering a few forgotten tomatoes from a previous vendor.

Yumi looked up, a grin on her face and a glint in her eye. She had no idea who this woman was, but on inspection she found her to be odd but also normal, it didn't make sense to her so she just continued to lay there smiling before eventually sitting up and thinking about everything. The cat seemed to be moving away so it was unlikely that she'd catch it now, which meant that talking to this woman might be a good idea. In a happy tone she said:
"I was chasing a cat. It seems to be gone now..."
Her air-headedness allowed her to bypass any feeling of right or wrong, meaning just being sat at this woman's feet didn't really phase her. To her, the real question was obvious though:
"Do you have any cats?"
Perhaps she did, then they could be really good friends and spend their time with cats. She still had no clue as to why she liked cats so much, but she wasn't complaining and continued to sit there smiling, one eye closed at the same time.

" I don't." A strange question to ask of someone, when you were sitting at their feet. Not a sorry? Excuse me? Anything like that at all? That was proper? Well, no. And that was stragnely alright with Guinevere, after the abrasiveness of the action had started to wear away. Adrian glanced a little more curiously at the girl more wary of the stranger than the mayor cared to act. His face set into a soft frown. Guinevere held out her hand to the woman sitting on the ground. " Here, let me help you up." That didn't mean the lady was not uncomfortable with the woman sitting so close to her legs. Hopefully this could fix the situation.

"Cats are cute. Perhaps you might like one. You could have one sat on your lap when having evil encounters with people, or sit one on your shoulder and look cool"
She smiled at her and then tilted her head:
"You look kind of cool already though"
She smiled again and giggled in the way only she could, and then noticed the hand aimed towards her and the offer to help her up. Unsure how long the hand had been there she quickly stuck her arm up and gripped the woman's hand carefully as to not hold her too tightly, but also not too loosely so she didn't fall over again. It appeared the cat that had run away wasn't hers but Yumi didn't mind now because it seemed like she'd made a new friend, because it wasn't every day she got to hold someone's hand.
"Thank you... Uh... Did you introduce yourself already? I can't remember"
She had a habit of forgetting, but that didn't matter because she doubted she would forget the lady before her. She was already liking her and a cat had run through her legs so that probably meant she was a good luck charm or something.

Guinevere gave a blush at the implications of having this feline creature simply for committing acts of evil. " I never fancied myself the evil sort. Do I really come off so?" The Lady Mayor was in quite in a titter, imagining such things. Dramatically turning as a patron was to be threatened for not quite following her plan, cat eyes glaring at the unwelcome intrusion to mother and me time. A thumb held coyly up to the corner her lips, well the thumb wasn't quite the right finger for this sort of action. This day dream was already going too far. The Lady had to brace herself pulling the other up, but that is what happened when one of the party was very long and thin. It didn't give her much ompf for physical related things. Adrian noticed Guinevere's change in stance as she pulled the other woman up, a little amazed that a stick like her could accomplish such a thing. " I did not introduce myself." Smiling at the oddity before her. " I am Guinevere Lyethe. Who might you be?" Now she had a chance to observe the woman a little more closely. It was with a little disgust that she found the female was wearing pants, with the combination of ribbons. She felt the person before her would be better suited to a nice dress, she could keep the checkered pattern....but lose the awful pants. It was an awful thing to be so judgmental, but Guinevere was one used to a luxurious life.

"No, you seem nice, but everyone has their secrets don't they?"
Yumi was saying it in jest, at least for the most part, and so smiled and placed her forefinger over her lips to hint she had her own. She didn't really though, unless you counted her amazing ability to wake up somewhere different to where she tried to sleep the night before and her parents being her polar opposite. She doubted they could be seen as secrets though, she was more of an open book and because of this said what she was thinking, although despite all this there was a filter to it, nothing too impolite.
"Thank you very much"
She smiled as she was helped up, trying to at least help a little bit with the process by using her feet, instead of just hanging off the woman's arm like she might have done to annoy people back in her youth. Nowadays that could injure someone though, especially someone with a thin frame like the lady before her. Size wasn't everything though, as she was fully aware. She'd seen some of those big creatures captured from the wilderness before, they seemed quick despite being twice the size of her.
"G-w-i-n-ee-v-ee-re. Hmm... Nice to meet you. And as for me, I'm Yumi Mirai, or Yumi for short!"
She had no idea how she would ever spell the name but it didn't matter for now. She still held the grin that she had before, but her eyes gleamed brighter somehow, as if she suddenly felt a lot more knowing and that knowledge made her glow. It didn't. However, she was happy to see a fellow blue eyes before her, just something she'd noticed.

" Aren't you charming!" Managing a half laugh, she didn't want to admit this girl's actions were so amusing that it turned her into a giggling girl. It was just a fresh perspective. Even more so know that the woman didn't seem to know who she was, even after giving her name. That was alright. " So what brings you to Viktoria, Yumi?" It was an honest question, she wondered how someone so clumsily was managing to survive in the world. Especially in a part of the world now taken over by a power that was in direct defiance to Julgrava. Curiosity also wanted to know more about this stranger that had so boldly attempted running right under her skirts. Or was this just a ploy to get at her? A spy? It seemed to off kilter to think so. But Viktoria was a major city in the South, and a rich one at that. She couldn't expect the King to just leave her alone either. Something would happen sooner or later against her.

"I am indeed, but don't tell anyone!"
A sneaky voice and a hushed tone as she said that to try and get her to join in. She was actually having a little bit of fun, although it did make her wonder who the man was stood next to her. He hadn't said anything so she presumed that he was just watching, or maybe he was some sort of mute or something? She hadn't ever met a mute before, but perhaps she had now. She didn't bother asking, she presumed if it was something needed to be known she'd get told.
"I'm not sure how I got here... I just kind of walked here from somewhere. I don't really remember."
It was true, she had no clue why or how she was here, but she was here now and wasn't complaining. It seemed a rather nice place around here, she wanted to explore it a little bit more but perhaps she could ask Guinevere about it a little more.
"But what are you doing around here?"
She didn't know anything about her so may as well learn a little.

The Lady's hand went to her mouth to stifle a giggle. This was becoming the oddest sort of conversation, but she was liking the spunk the girl had in her. She imagined traversing the country with her would bring about many strange and odd adventures. Though as Yumi stated she had no clue how she had arrived in Victoria, she was quite worried for the girl. That was not a good sign. Did she hit her head? Was she insane? Should she be worrying? With a glance over to Adrian he was seeming to lose interest and get a little bored from watching. Though he was just slightly concerned. " Do you need help?" What does she mean what am I doing here? Here in this spot? Here in the town?
" I am shopping, but if you mean what I do in Viktoria. I am the Mayor." Deciding that covering all bases was a fair thing to do. " So if you need help with anything, I can really help." Reaching out to touch the girl's arm.

"I should be fine thanks, I enjoy walking around and exploring!"
She was enjoying the conversation, and didn't even bad an eyelid at how quickly she could manage to get talking to people and learn interesting things about them. Although if someone could keep her attention for more than a few moments then she found everything about them interesting. Unbeknownst to her, people who didn't interest her tended to get annoyed at her for ignoring them, but she was usually blissfully unaware to them so she could continue her happy life.
"Mayor? Hmm... I'm impressed! Why aren't your friends shopping for you though? I think I remember something like that when I was younger"
By friends she meant servants, but she tended to make friends with them when she was younger. This was before she'd been booted out, or left... She wasn't sure which. It was odd to think the woman in front of her could be the leader of such a land around her.
"Well you own a really nice place, it's quite fun to explore here. I'm also thankful for your offer of help... Is there anywhere you'd suggest visiting then?"
She was on the hunt for fun again, and she was enjoying herself here but she was aware she couldn't take all of the mayors time away for she must have had very important things to do.

" I need to do something to keep me active!" Smiling at the girl, yes she could send her servants. But being stuck in the Inn was driving her mad. Besides she liked taking walks well enough, it was part of a healthy lifestyle anyways. But now had something to ask of Yumi, that statement alone made her mind fill with questions. " Are you a noble?" A simple question, and she hoped that the answer would be simple. Guinevere would wait for the girl to answer her, before continuing on with their conversation. This was opening up many doors, and things to talk about with this young woman. First was getting a baseline of what she enjoyed. " Within restriction of the city, I can think of things I find fun. Like shopping, we could find the perfect dress for you!" It was a girly statement, but looks were important.

"Exercise... That's a good reason then!"
She wasn't exactly a sporty person herself although she did tend to run around a lot so swings and roundabouts - whatever they were. It was odd to think the lady before her wanted to stay active, she would have happily sat on her behind all day pointing at people and telling them to do funny dances, although she probably would have wanted to join in when they danced anyway so it defeated the point of being lazy.
"Noble? Hmm... Well I rescued a cat from a tree once, and I try not to be rude to people, so I would say I have a good morality, so I am indeed noble!"
She'd misunderstood the question, and was now confused why Guinevere would wonder such a thing. Perhaps she suspected her to be a bad person in her town or something, which she wanted to prove wrong.
"I won't be making trouble in your town if that's what you mean!"
She laughed a bit before being a little bit surprised that she was being invited on a shopping trip. She hadn't been on one of those since she was younger and more reckless, and had ended up damaging quite a lot of things. To be fair that mannequin had looked suspiciously like a real person. To be invited on a trip like that though, it would indeed be fun! It really did feel like she'd made a good new friend, so with a grin she replied:
"A shopping trip? I'd love to! Although I don't think dresses look too good on me..."

Guinevere gave Yumi a half amused chuckle, perhaps she wasn't meant for a life among the common rabble anyway. They could certainly be frustrating, but in laugh it off she avoided being offensive by playing off the move as a joke. Simply enough done, and would hopefully keep the conversation in a positive direction. " I did mean of lineage, but I do not suppose you are wrong." The double meanings of the Eng-Cruic language. " No, I am not worried of your intentions in the city, I think it is tightly defended." Shooting a look to Adrian, that gave her a playful shrug in response. For a babysitter kind of relationship, Guinevere was sometimes too comfortable with the man. Even for her own liking. Though she still liked simple Tom more, he was a more fun kind of naive. Though in a much different way than her own. " Hush dear! I could find something very sitting, you could even keep that very unique checkered pattern! With your beautiful hair, and the right kind of dress you figure could be both enchanting and powerful!" Guinevere clucked.

Tilting her head at the weird word, she accepted the fact she had sort of got it correct and smiled a little bit. She didn't really know what was happening when it came to normal conversations, such as the one they were attempting to have, and so instead she hoped her smiling would improve the flow a little bit. Then again she would smile whether the conversation needed it or not, that was just her personality.
"Secured? Hmm... That's good then! Although how did I get in then... Oh well"
It was a curious thought to think that she had managed to bypass guards and the such, if it were that tightly secured surely they would have questioned her or something? Maybe they realised on looking at her she was a nice person and simply let her pass, or that she'd forgotten about them which was also a highly viable option in that sort of situation.
"You sure? My stomach is rather difficult to disguise, and my legs, although my arms are really muscular!"
She flexed her rather non-muscular arms and grinned.
"Hmm, well I trust your judgement then. I like the idea of looking like you say, or a little like you 'cause you look like you describe!"
