Echo's gaze immediately corrected itself once the other molly began speaking, locking onto a more accurate location, though perhaps not perfect. It sounded like a young she-cat, maybe a bit younger than twelve moons. The blind molly stayed tense as the other she-cat spoke, though kept her claws sheathed. She was not in search of a fight - though she certainly did not doubt her ability to hold up in one - however, she did not want to be completely off-guard.

It sounded like this other she-cat - deemed 'nobody' by her on statement - wasn't looking for a fight either. The grey molly snorted at the prattling prelude about nobodies, but supposed the stranger wasn't necessarily wrong. "Simply exchanging pleasentries, Nobody." Echo's tail twitched, somewhere between irritated and amused. Young cats thought they were so profound with their little speeches, huh? A nobody among nobodies.

"Anyways, I suppose you took my question a bit literally, hmm? It was a bit surprising stumbling across another cat - especially one so young - out in this wasteland. I don't suppose you have family around here?" The question was partially to make conversation, but more so assessing what threats she may need to look out for. The more cats that lived in this desperate place, the quicker she would need to make her way out. She would not spend her time sparring over scraps of prey.

"In regards to your question, I want nothing from you. Perhaps one of those mice, but I will not steal them. I'm not anymore a thief than you, presuming you are of good nature?" Considering Nobody had yet to attack her, Echo presumed that she did, in fact, have a decent moral compass. Those who were cold-hearted were quick to chase away others, unless they could be found useful; despite her own assuredness in her ability, she was very aware that she would not appear to be valuable to most.
