[Cezar stands on Hector's lap and bumps his flat nose into the doll, sniffs it, then pops up on his hind legs so he can reach over it to lick Hakuno's hand.]

Hello. Come, sit. I haven't ordered yet.

[Hector gestures to the other seat. He smiles at the miniature Cezar doll. The resemblance really is striking.]

We've been well. Cezar's found many friends here...and I've not done so bad myself.

[Well, he's had some rough times during the last full moon, but there's no reason to bring up hardships over a friendly cup of tea. Better to focus on the lighter aspects of life.]

How about you?
