the spider sort of dances in rondo's hand before springing to rondo's shoulder. he lands there not as a spider, but as a brown spotted and striped cat. it rubs up against rondo's head, putting the tail in rondo's face. ]
oh!!! listen, he already loves battle very much but the cat is super charming. sometimes you canonly are a cat person despite being a giant dog, and rondo laughs, lifting his hand up to offer it for sniffs and trying not to sneeze at the tail. ]
Maybe. You can be a little mischievous too, though. [ mr sneaking up on people ] Something of a salve, after a very, very long weekend.
[ yeah... yeah. some of the warmth and joy like, falls off his face, and he looks far, far less thrilled, smile softening into something sadder as he offers his hands for kitty rubs and lets them do as they like. ]
He's very astute. [ to say the least. rondo's gaze flicks downwards, and after a moment, he lets his worries free. ] Yesterday, I... I'm glad I didn't kill Miss Erin. We needed someone to complete the ritual, I just... I wish it could have been someone who wasn't a combatant. Miss Asa... I'm glad she's alright, but it must have been terrifying.
[ HEY. not that. cut it out. the mysterious feline familiar rubs back and forth a little more furtively. ]
I doubt you would have felt very accomplished having her blood on your sword even if she was afflicted. [ weenie hut jr (kidding) ] So it's best it went the way it did.
There is still time before the ritual is finished, so you may even have other opportunities to perform an act like Vin.
he rubs his fingers into the mysterious cat's face, taking solace in the very soft and fluffy fur. war is right - he wouldn't have felt accomplished at all, but at least asa might not have gotten hurt. rondo's quiet for a long moment. ]
It's not so much that... If I must, I will, of course. I just would rather it be me, or Mr. Kanda, or Lavi, or... someone who's more used to doing this kind of thing. It's not easy to have blood on your hands.
Plus...if... we find whoever the last monster was, then... [ that scares him a little too, honestly. what if they were wrong? that's the scariest part. he thinks about his conversation with vin and swallows. ] ... well. If we find them.

the cat sniffs and then butts its head into the offered hand. it enjoys walking across rondo's shoulders back and forth, rubbing. ]
Far from it.
[ they will deny this. ]
From what I'm aware, I think that he is fond of offering comfort to others who are in need of it.
