Yes. [surprisingly, cloud retainer was a decent mom? for a bird.] ... She and the other adepti raised me as well as they could. There was only so much they could do.
Hmm. [ yuzuriha has to think on it too, try to put words to a certain feeling. ]
I suppose it's because you don't say things to make people feel one way or another. You just speak what's on your mind, but you aren't cruel about it. And you listen, too.

no subject
I'm glad. I think you're easy to talk to. I'm sure the others must feel the same.
no subject
What makes me easy to talk to? [she's curious - she's never heard that before.]

You're also tall, and beautiful, and powerful.
[ naturally, she does not sound embarrassed at all to say it. ]
