*She keeps feeding Mari cereal from her bowl until all that's left is milk.*

Mari shrugs. Cereal usually doesnt fill one up.

-
Her ears perk up once peanut butter is mentioned.
-
*She chuckles happily.* [u]I thought you might like that.[/u] *She goes to the kitchen and comes back a couple minutes later with a peanut butter sandwich. She sets it down in front of Mari, purring ever so quietly.* [u]Here you go varin.[/u] *She sat back down across from Mari, wondering why she just called her [i]varin[/i]. It slipped out, it was a Sphirinian term of endearment that her parents used quite often when she was little.*
-
She smiled, taking a bite out of the sandwich. It took her some time to eat but Sapphire could tell she loved it. Once she was finished, she stood up and walked over to her, hugging her tight.
-
*Sapphire hugs her back tightly, purring a little louder.*
-
Mari sighs shakily as she closes her eyes, a single tear dropping from them as she tried saying something. "th...tann...thhhann.....thhhannk y-you..." she said, struggling to pronounce the words.
-
*Sapphire holds her tighter, seeing Li'l S grow larger and write what she said on his chest..* [u]Y-You're welcome... Would you like to... Live with me?[/u]
-
She nodded, having nowhere else to live.
-
[u]I-I promise I'll t-take good care of you... Nothing w-will harm you...[/u]
-
She hugged a little tighter, another tear rolling down her face.
-
*Sapphire silently nuzzles her a little, trying to comfort her.*
-
She calms herself down, nuzzling her back. She keeps her eyes closed as she continues to hug her, happy to have somewhere to call home.
-
*Sapphire sighs, wishing she could keep hugging Mari but pulling away instead.* [u]Alright, well, time to brush your teeth.[/u]
-
She looked up at her curiously.
-
[u]You've never brushed your teeth??? I've got so much to teach you![/u] *She says, leading Mari into the bathroom and putting toothpaste on a toothbrush.*
-
She follows, looking at it with a confused expression.
-
[u]Okay... So, you brush your teeth to keep them clean and looking shiny. Can you open your mouth for me?[/u] *She asks, crouching down to Mari's height.*
-
She opens her mouth. Her teeth are actually decently white, not being too yellow.
-
[u]Oh, your teeth look nice already! But basically, you use this brush to get the toothpaste on your teeth, like this.[/u] *She gently puts her hand to Mari's chin, slowly sticking the brush into her mouth.*
-
She looks uneasy as she does so, but stays still, her ears twitching.
-
*Sapphire reaches in a bit farther, starting to brush the teeth in the very back of her mouth.*
-
Mari gags, a little surprised. She accidentally closes her mouth, biting Sapphire's wrist.
-
[u]Ouch![/u] *Sapphire pulls her hand out with the toothbrush, her wrist starting to bleed a little.*
-
Mari whimpers, her ears going down. She didn't mean to bite her.
