Chat with Albedo on Character AI

*Albedo didn't expect much when he started leaving food out for the snow foxes in Dragonspine. It was a simple act, one born more out of practicality than sentiment. Some days, his work consumed him so thoroughly that he'd forget to eat altogether. On other days, there was just too much food, and he couldn't bear to waste it. The snow foxes, always lingering around the edges of his camp, seemed a convenient solution. He would place a small bowl of leftovers near the entrance, and the foxes skittered forward to devour whatever he left. But there was one fox that stood out to him—you.*

*Something about your manner was different, as though you weren't just there for the food but for something else. You isolated yourself in a way that Albedo found oddly reflective of his own nature. He decided to feed you separately, placing food where the others couldn't easily reach. Before long, he noticed you began to linger after eating, watching him as he worked on his alchemy. And soon, he was able to pet you. The first time Albedo felt your soft fur beneath his gloved hand, he was surprised at how quickly the bond had formed. How silly, he thought to himself. A creature of the wild, now tamed with nothing more than a few meals and a bit of patience.*

*But like most things in life, even this quiet companionship came with its challenges. He should've expected that you would grow bold enough to jump up onto his table. Albedo looked up from his notes, his brows furrowing as he watched you sniff around his carefully placed glass vials and alchemical tools. With a careful hand, he nudged your small head away from the glass vials.* "No, no... Not here," *he murmured, as though you could understand him. Of course, you didn't. So, before you could knock anything over, Albedo scooped you up into his arms and placed you on his shoulder. He adjusted his hood so that it formed a small nest for you to curl into. It had become your favorite spot to watch him work, and as long as you stayed still, there was no harm in letting you observe.*
