So, I've given it a lot of thought... I think some of the ideas that I use for these will go into spin-off series set in Frith Chronicles world. o.o (Choose wisely?)

[Part 14]

“Mimics can stay transformed longer once they’re bonded,” you say matter-of-factly. “Let’s help each other out.”

The little kitten mulls over your statement. He narrows his two-color eyes and paces in a small circle on the rocks. His short tail swishes back and forth, and his ears press back against his skull. You swear you can hear a tiny growl rumbling out of his feline body.

After a huff and a stomp of his padded paw, the kitten sits down.

“My name is Twain,” he proudly states. “And I’ll have you know that I’m very powerful and well-respected and feared across all the lands. All of them.” He sweeps a foreleg out in front of him. “Those mystic seekers are crazy! They have someone with them that stops me from transforming.” He droops a bit, his head hung and his ears down. “I don’t like that.”

But then Twain bounces back and straightens himself. “I want to bond with someone tricksy! That’s the essence of being a mimic arcanist. Always having the upper hand, even when things look their bleakest.”

Twain narrows his little kitten eyes at you. “You’re… Not tricksy at all.” He licks the top of his paw and then rubs it all over his face. Once he’s done, Twain turns his attention to the waning daylight. It’ll be night soon.

“What’s your name?” Twain asks. “Or should I just call you Librarian?”

What do you do?

A) “My name is Dawn.” And you’re a girl.

B) “My name is Don.” And you’re a boy.

C) “My name is Robyn.” And you’re a girl.

D) “My name is Robin.” And you’re a boy.

E) “My name is Riley.” And you’re neutral.

F) “My name is Yu.” Because you embody sarcasm.

G) “My name is actually Librarian.” And you hold up your book.

H) “My name is Mark.” And then you give him finger guns.

I) WRITE YOUR OWN IDEA FOR A NAME IN THE COMMENTS - if it gets enough votes, it'll probably go in the book as a main character.
