"Hi… Kamiko…" said Kat suddenly feeling really awkward about the question she'd just blurted out. Deciding to change the question and hopefully just forget about the whole thing, Kat continued with. "You seem awfully happy to be here for your punishment"
Kamiko stuck her tongue out at Kat. "Naw, I just don't see any reason to mope about. Besides, this is the kiddy punishment. We basically get the whole sales pitch… er… I mean, we should do… this looks like a lot more people than normal so maybe they will be splitting us up? Hmm… this is for your rank one debt right?"
Kat nodded "Yes. It is…"
"Great!" shouted Kamiko, latching back on to Kat. "We can be partners then. They normally make us pair up anyway and they like partners to be similar races so we should be fine" Kamiko made sure to wiggle her eyes at the end proving she hadn't forgotten about Kat's question, but she didn't seem upset.
