In which I show that Koa is doing Just Fine
-Ever since the battle at the Worldcore and recovering in the infirmary, he's been avoiding everyone. Particularly Brisa. He's skipped out on their training sessions, and has made a point to not be around her much
-He's also been mysteriously absent from his house with Owen, Dave and Brisa. Either he's always busy when people are there, or he comes home late or goes straight to bed. He tends to leave early and not make much conversation.
Despite this, he does give off vibes of just being busy, not quite avoiding people.Although between Owen's perceive and Brisa's vision he can't hide it from them well at all.
-Sometimes he can be spotted at the library, doing more research, or sitting in comfortable silence with Icetales.
-A lot of his time is also spent sightseeing, in the companionship of his new familiar, Echo. Maybe too much time.
-Speaking of, he seems to spend more time with Echo than anyone else now.
-Sometimes, at strange hours or in deserted places, you might hear something that sounds like a mon training. It couldn't be Koa though, training in private so he doesn't have to be around anyone. Because Koa's doing fine.
Echo's going ons:
-Echo can be found with Koa mostly, but when he's not with Koa he's probably making his best attempt to find honey or eat something sweet.
-Echo is not stupid. He's quite aware that Koa is hanging with him abnormally much to get away from everyone else. He worries for his trainer.
-Sometimes he talks to the other familiars.
-Depending where you are, if you look up, you might see him clinging to a ceiling fan and going for a spin.
-He wants to help Koa, since he can sense how distressed Koa is but he's not sure how. For now he just tries to keep him company.
