[The little scrabble of claws alerts her, but Kaede looks up too late to catch a glimpse of movement. Hm. She'd have to be faster about this. She stood, leaning on the counter--and the air around her hummed as her vectors manifested out of emptiness. They passed through the walls of the remaining cabinets; at this low frequency and power they didn't do much besides act as whiskers. And they didn't find anything fox-shaped.

Usually, Kaede avoided using her vectors around animals too much; some seemed to find them unsettling. But then, this wasn't just any animal, was it?

Like what? [She asked the empty air before quietly making her way to where she'd heard the click of claws last; tile again, maybe the bathroom? Unless it'd circled back to the kitchen the moment she'd left. But--no, no changing boats in the middle of the river. The horned girl didn't flick on the bathroom lights, though her vectors immediately reached for the bundle under the towels.

Meanwhile the bedroom, while not a mess, still very much looked lived in; the bed unmade, a chair half pulled out from the desk with a sweater draped over the back, a laundry basket partly filled with crudely folded clothes that she'd put away at some point later. The outfit Eren gave her was even in there, albeit jumbled with other inexpensive skirts and a few oddly long shirts.
