[Mello's getting a little tired of making these announcements, truth be told. And sure, maybe they've technically got more pressing matters at the moment, but Chris was here a long time, and he had many friends - of which Mello was one, believe it or not.

[And there were no pets in the orphanages he ended up in after her death, and he was too busy surviving to deal with pets after he left the orphanage. A strange cat stayed with him for a while, but he disappeared some time ago.]

So when you call yourself a wolf lady, am I correct in inferring that you're not speaking metaphorically?

[It sounds strange, but Mello's seen enough strange things both in and out of Hadriel to believe in possibilities. There would be no point in lying about something like this, either.]

Then I guess you're in a unique position to understand Wolfie.
