Jaisyn noticed her mother's new companion, sure, but the offer of a hug was too much to pass up. She moved to Leia quickly, hugging her tightly in turn, critters and all. "Thanks, Mom. I... things have happened, I heard." She was referring to Diagad, which was still the talk of the train, especially because a version of her had been there.

Then she pulled back and glanced down at the Espeon excitedly. "May I?" she asked, first to her mother then to the creature. Because once she had permission, she was going to launch a full-on snuggle assault. Critters and all.
