The name teasing didn't get the sort of reaction he'd been hoping for so Anders drops it. At least she seems to be amused by tales of Pounce.
"Rats can put up quite the fight; I can imagine the cats were excellent hunters. I want another one. Another hunter. Not to replace Purrelden, I love her, but a cat I could take down to the Deep Roads. It's... dark down there."
It's a lame end to the sentence, but he can't put into words why he dislikes the dark so much even if he was willing to simply wander into telling someone about the fear starting while he was in solitary.
"I've never liked them, but a cat makes them bearable. Except if I brought Purrelden I'd worry about her constantly rather than focusing on what we were there to do, so that's not an option with her."
Other trips are still fair game, and he wonders if he should blather on about that next or if Teren would prefer to hear him chatter about something else.
