The gold queen froze, stopping right in her tracks. She... saw him get killed? That was... that just terrible! She didn't dare ask how it happened. Well... Kit's answer hadn't been exactly what she expected. She pictured a more.... romantic moment filled with sappy sentiments. Noticing that Kitrina kept right on going, Demeter shook off the thought and trotted to catch up. She wanted to change the subject to a.... slightly brighter one. "Um... so, nice night huh?"

"I didn't notice," she said bitterly, looking to the sky then, trying to soften her tone while keeping the brisk walk. Maybe it wasn't as fair to Demeter in heels, but Kit didn't have sympathy while still in her ratty jeans and sneakers.

"Kitrina...?" Demeter spoke softly. Her heels clicked as she ran up beside the grey queen. She hesitated before speaking. She wasn't sure how the stray would take what she was about to say, but she had to try. "Do you need a friend?"

Kit paused, as if she might speak, then looked down, and away. "I don't know what I need," she said quietly. "Bomb's sometimes fine to be with, but--" She fidgeted, then looked away. "I thought Munkustrap would be a friend, but..." Another thing for discomfort.
A laugh. "That Quaxo guy was kind... so kind... but just... I couldn't... fuck." She shook her head and walked a little. Then stopped once more. "I don't do friends. I don't know how to do friends."

The gold queen frowned. "I used to think the same way you know," she commented. She sighed heavily. "You remind me a lot of myself when I first came here. I don't exactly remember how or why I came to the Jellicles, but... All I know is that I was just as afraid and alone."

"Why'd you change?" she asked, curiously. Really, it was a bad idea to talk with Demeter. She was certain of that. But she couldn't help but be intrigued, just a bit. Someone similar to her? She couldn't see it.

"I changed because I realized acting like a sorry sop wasn't helping me any. I tried to just put myself out there, try my best to associate with the others... and well, eventually I made friends and became a member of the tribe." she smiled. It was a tough topic for her to talk about, but she felt Kitrina needed to hear it.

She listened and nodded, though there was no indication on her face that she'd change, that she'd consider changing herself. There was too much beneath the surface. Though, she had to hand it to Demeter--chick was a lot deeper than she'd thought.
"It's good you belong."
