I think that even if a person is not inherently nice, they are capable of kind things. What you've said to me today makes me happy, even if you don't consider them kind. I just wanted you to know that.
But you are correct. I will do my best to serve our relationship well. Please let me know if there is anything I can provide to you. I will consider what you've told me, and try to think about the matter more. I am just as eager for answers and reasoning as you are.
Is that so... Then I suppose we can simply be two supposedly frustrating people in good company. If anyone else has an issue, that shall be their problem.
Yes. I do not think we will be in the dark forever. Even if things may be confusing or surprising, we will be able to get to the bottom of them until all answers are satisfactory. I am not a person who is daunted easily.
But... yes, I understand then. Of course you're welcome in our Dorm, Catra. We'd love to have you. It's better to be close with those you care for. And as promised there will be no repercussions. Do let me know if there's anything I can do to make you more comfortable.
A party is like a celebration where people gather and have fun. And while I understand it's not exactly a time to celebrate - A stress relief party can serve the purpose of working off some steam. People often have a clearer mind if they're not immediately angry.
Winter Dorm has been very sweet so far - but they are a little bit of a loud group. I think it might be fun to break some things together. I'm sure that's bonding.
Hehe, is that so? You should tell me more about that. I don't have any childhood friends, so maybe I can live through you two a bit.
A party it is, then. Just to try to get everyone's heads a little clearer. I'll see if I can have items prepared for it tomorrow. And even if we don't advertise it, it can be my little celebration for you joining us.
not all of our childhood memories are nice. we grew up with the horde, after all.
but i remember running through the halls and playing hide and seek from sh
[that sends but it seems to be an accident, because she quickly sends another message afterwards]
sorry, from our commanding officer. and sometimes-- though not always-- she'd play hooky from training lessons with me and we'd go up to the rooftop to see who could throw scrap the farthest.
[. . . those are good memories, Catra thinks. the kind she carries close to her heart. the kind she never wants to let go]
oh? is me switching supposed to be a secret? i think winter'll notice if there's a new person in their dorm.
Oh, that's alright. Was the horde not a comfortable place? But that's very sweet. Then I'll take care to add footholds on the way up to the rooftop for you so you can throw things together again. And you'll just have a few more of us to join you!
Ah - not in that way! But I'll get a bit nervous if whispers of favoritism get out... Everyone in Winter is my favorite, you know?
Hehe, well maybe others can enjoy the rooftop as well. I can't make it a permanent fixture without Vouchers, but maybe just for the week. I see... Then - I take it you've left? I'm glad you've left the horde.
Do you think so? Perhaps I'm just soft for Winter Dorm, then. It's a good thing no one's done anything to make me feel sharp.
Hehe, that's what I've heard too. Though I haven't gotten to witness them for myself yet! But it's more fun that way, don't you think? When things are a little rowdy and busy.
Oh! That is very recent. And you left the horde to... join Adora?
Hehe, well rowdy people are fun. I don't know if I can always keep up, but I like watching what they get up to. It's always something new and exciting.
it's not like i follow her EVERYwhere. when you say it like that, with me swapping dorms to be with her, you make it sound like i always do what she does.
[which is NOT TURE in general!! although in both of the relevant circumstances it. . . is. . .]
it's funny that you like rowdy people when you don't seem very rowdy yourself.

well.
i'm glad you're not dead or whatever
no subject
You're very nice to me, Catra.
In a situation where it is not expected or even warranted.
I want to say thank you for that.
I've been told that the type of person I am can be frustrating...
But I will do my best for you. I swear it.
no subject
i'm not nice!!
it's just, whatever, you know!! you being alive benefits me!!
[she lies she has soft spots for Viola and Sally, despite having only known them for a week]

no subject
i know what it's like to be told the kind of person you are is frustrating.
so.
[. . .]
if we're all looking for answers we've got to find them eventually
right?
no subject

Yes.

no subject
i like the way you talk
but never mind that. like i said, there is something you can help me with
i want to join your team.
no subject
Please understand I'm overjoyed to hear this - we'd love to have you.
But hadn't you said you didn't wish to be the first?
no subject
don't get me wrong, i'd rather cautiously milk this rivalry you and sally seem to have for all it's worth. and sally'sā fine.
[catra speak for SHE LIKES SALLY]
but after what happened i can't wait. i have to be with adora
no subject
[SALLY WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN SAYING]
But... yes, I understand then.
Of course you're welcome in our Dorm, Catra. We'd love to have you.
It's better to be close with those you care for.
And as promised there will be no repercussions.
Do let me know if there's anything I can do to make you more comfortable.
no subject
[literally just that she wouldn't lose, the rivalry is catra's headcanon]
and don't think i've forgotten that you promised me breakable stuff
for stress relief
no subject
Then I will take this rivalry seriously.
[catra what have you done]
Oh, of course. I think we all need that after this weekend.
Maybe we can make a party of it.
no subject
what's a party?
no subject

adora and i bonded through breaking things as kids.
it's totally a group activity.
so sure, we can make it a. . . party
no subject
You should tell me more about that.
I don't have any childhood friends, so maybe I can live through you two a bit.

Ah - not in that way! But I'll get a bit nervous if whispers of favoritism get out...
Everyone in Winter is my favorite, you know?
no subject
i don't need footholds, but adora might appreciate them. and the horde was. . . well. it was the horde.
[as though that explains everything]
that's a really soft thing to say, you know?
no subject
I see... Then - I take it you've left? I'm glad you've left the horde.
Do you think so?
Perhaps I'm just soft for Winter Dorm, then. It's a good thing no one's done anything to make me feel sharp.
no subject
. . . it's a recent thing, but i'm not with them anymore.
[and now that she has perspective she honestly wonders why she stuck with them for so long. BUT ANYWAY!!!]
i heard the people in your dorm are SUPER loud, too. a lot of yellers. some impressive pipes on everyone.
no subject
Hehe, that's what I've heard too. Though I haven't gotten to witness them for myself yet!
But it's more fun that way, don't you think?
When things are a little rowdy and busy.
no subject
literally right before i was brought here.
[like. literally!! LITERALLY!!!]
and yeah, i guess so. adora's definitely the rowdy type, so i'm not surprised she's stuck with a lot of people who are like her.
no subject
And you left the horde to... join Adora?
Hehe, well rowdy people are fun. I don't know if I can always keep up, but I like watching what they get up to.
