Sohalia
Soh felt bad for interrupting her friends' snack, but if there was a creature loose in the house, she certainly wanted to make sure that it found its way home. And if it didn't have a home, the least she could do was feed it and send it on its way. With Tal wandering back outside (with some reluctance) and Jude checking downstairs (much more eagerly), Soh was left to her own devices upstairs. She checked in the corners, beneath furniture, and everywhere else she could think of with a small frown on her face. Every once in a while, she would hear that tiny mewling sound, but she could never seem to get any closer.
Finally, she gave up and went downstairs, where Jude was walking quietly around, tapping and clicking his tongue. She called Tal in from outside. "Thank you for looking. I just don't -"
She turned around just as a tiny kitten tottered out from beneath a couch, following the sound of Jude's clicking. It was orange and black and white, a little calico creature, and Soh made a noise somewhere between a squeal and an "aww." The kitten made its way over to Jude and mewled up at him pleadingly. "I think you've made a friend," Soh said with a smile, walking over to the young man. She crouched in front of the kitten, offering her hand for it to sniff. It rubbed against her fingers, purring loudly, and she scooped it up easily.
She looked around at her friends. "Do either of you know where I can take this little one? I can't keep her - I won't be able to take her with me when I travel."

I think that makes four rounds, friends! Thank you so much for participating in this PQ <3 I'd love to wrap this up after each of you post one more time.
