"me?" prestige mumbled, brow furrowing in confusion. it'd become a bit more common, being recognized, but it still managed to catch him off guard every time. except, this time was different. he could feel the same bit of familiarity creeping at him the longer he looked at the other feline, and when she told her name, all sleep was gone from his body. suddenly he was a kid again; a young guard, dumb and in love, meeting sola for the first time.

the tuxedo's ears perked and he straightened up, blue eyes going wide. "sola?" he murmured, an undertone of disbelief in his voice. could it really be her? oh, it had been so long; he'd missed her so much, but people were cruel. for all he knew this woman could just be playing a trick on him, but... he knew, deep down, it was her. prestige let out a short breath before he rushed forward, shoving his cheek into her fur, unable to restrain a loud purr. "it's been so long," the tom said softly. "i didn't think i'd ever see you again." there was a hint of pain as he spoke, eyes squeezed shut, but he smiled into her fur and continued his rather loud purring.
