Welwetes chirps, as he uncurls, his armoured tail lifting from his reptilian face. "Rar!" He chirps --

"Rah," Welwetes shakes his whole body, from that lion ruff around his long neck to that curly armoured tail, and begins tromping out of Tyrrha's room.
"Oh, hello, Welwetes!" Eiko says, turning to find him, folded linen in her arms. "Are you looking for the young mistress? She and her mother have gone down to the park."

"Rah!" Welwetes wags his tail, his jaws yawning open in a big grin.
"I'll play with you when I'm done with this," Eiko assures him, her poise unshaken by such a strange pet.

"Rah," Welwetes bobs his head, as he ambles to the loungeroom.
But there, on the lounge, is a massive, orange beast, which shifts from loafing to looming as wicked green eyes sight the unit below. "Hsssss...."

Welwetes chirps, "rar?", as his little back legs bend, and he leaps upon the lounge to investigate Tiger a little more closely; lined up on the couch, it becomes clear that Tiger is much larger than the chicken-sized robot beside him. Welwetes stretches his little dino-nose out, as if to sniff, and --
"HSSSSSS," Tiger's massive paw smacks Welwetes right across the nose!

"Ra???" Welwetes chirps, as if more confused, only for that massive Norwegian Forest cat to leap upon him. With a mighty hiss, he kicks his back legs into the underside of Welwetes' chassis, biting into the feathery fabrication at his neck in search of a jugular he'll never find.

"Ararararararar!" Welwetes yelps, as he scrambles away from Tiger's wrath, fleeing down the hall to go and cower behind Tyrrha's recharging station. "Arauuuuuuuuuuuuu!"
Eiko, hearing the commotion, leans in with her basket of dirty laundry, and sighs, smiling to him.
"I could have warned you that would happen... you'd better not jump onto Tiger's couch while he's sleeping, hmm?"

"Raaaauuuuu," Welwetes whines, and somehow, it seems like he even gets the hint.
