“Age has not stopped anyone of coming here.” A soft chuckle escapes her lips. This world worked on money alone, with less restrictions it would only go worse as time went by. “A young boy your age has urges, no need to hide it…” Tilting her head, she slowly lifts the sleeve of her kimono to cover her mouth while only her eyes peered at him – as if looking for something.
Teasing aside, she does hear for his explanation and opts to believe it for both of their sakes. Initially, she had no interest in this boy and would’ve merely tried to eat him if nothing else came up for the night. However, this was far more interesting. He wasn’t human but couldn’t pinpoint what else he could be. Not till he mentioned his two-tailed cat. No regular human owned a nekomata.
“You and your cat… are like me?” No, it was unlikely. His features were so different to her own, she had no means of pointing out if they had some sort of resemblance to her kind.
“There are plenty of cat here, I wouldn’t be surprised if he is with them.”
“Let’s find him, I’m tired of looking at people. He might be hiding in the alleyways.”
‘ u-urges ? ’ how could she say something like that so calmly ? without even a hint of embarassment ? rin and could already feel the heat spreading from his neck to the tips of his ears, face turning a dark red and tail shooting upwards in surprise. his gaze quickly darts away from the woman to the ground, to the nearby storefronts. anywhere else would do fine so long as he didn’t have to maintain eye contact. ‘ no, no, no thank you. we ain’t gonna talk about anything like urges ! especially not with someone i just met ! ’
her change in tone makes him pause, however, and allows him a moment to regain some semblance of his composure ( though it wasn’t as if he had much to begin with ). ‘ like you ? you mean a demon ? ‘cause that’s what i am, anyway. or well, partially. ’ even in his current state of mind, flustered to the core, he wouldn’t come right out and say ‘you smell like a demon too’ - that could only be taken the wrong way, especially given what part of town they were in.
still, he allows himself to look up, cheeks still stained a light pink. ‘ kuro is too, but he’s more like a cat than anythin’ else. probably why he ran off to go say hi to some of the cats ‘round here. he did that a lot back home. still wish he’d tell me before he darts off though. ’
‘... alright, you lead the way then. thanks. ’ it wasn’t as if he had any knowledge of this area and given his track record, he’d likely end up in more trouble than he’d bargained for if he dared to travel alone.
