"... Huh? Fighting?" With a sigh of disbelief, his head lowers, face in his hand. How is that the way Choso takes the question? How does he jump from hair pulling to fighting? It'd be funny if not for the fact that he has to clarify himself now. Still, he chuckles.

"Why not? There's nothing like a good fight. Especially if it gets a little dirty."

Gojo raises his head, hand falling away.

"But come on, that's not what I meant."

There wasn't much that could surprise the medicine seller anymore, but nature always had a way of doing so from time to time. Rain dripped off wavy hair and weighed fabric against skin as he walked easily through the downpour and up to stand beside the stranger as he settled below the impromptu shelter. His head turned towards the other slightly at the faint sound of a sigh while he idly rung the water from his sleeve. Yet curiosity had him pause a moment as he properly paid attention to this stranger.

Oh? This was no ordinary human. There was the familiar presence of humanity but it was joined by something other. Something human 'made' perhaps.

Yellow eyes turned to look at him as the flash of lightning lit the colorful features. A smile curved his lips as he glanced from the stranger towards the rain beyond their shelter as he considered the words.

" It's been over due, it'll take time before it finishes. " He replied easily, turning to wring out the water from his other sleeve away from the other. " As for some other shelter... The inn nearby has a cafe open to the public. It shouldn't be too busy this time of year. " And it happened to be where he was heading next. Gathering spots were always the best places to hear unusual rumors. Or perhaps learn about unusual strangers? Not that he had much room to talk. " Would you like me to show you the way? "

And just like that. What are the odds of a Cursed Womb hanging out with a Sorcerer Killer? Especially when both of the aforementioned individuals could be seen strolling down the local park with a paper bag of dinosaur nuggets in each of their hand.

"So... what the fuck are you supposed to be anyways?" Came the blunt question laced with uncensored profanity from Toji's parted lips, before a piece of nugget was popped into his mouth, which was subsequently devoured without a second thought. He made good of his promise to treat the smaller male to such a treat, even though Toji was notoriously known to be finicky with his money.

After all, Choso did help him slay a formidable Sorcerer. Better repay the favor with chicken nuggets rather than wads of cash.

She's, like, literally just a silly girl, okay?

The young man had been standing outside the bookshop admittedly not very long, but Lapen had noticed him through the window seeming lost in his thoughts. Or perhaps just lost? But when he'd stepped out of the door to check on him, he'd spoken without thinking when he caught the other's expression. Realization replaced what had been a curious but relaxed expression as his ears pinked and he quickly raised his hands to wave off his questions.

" Oh! I-! No no, I'm sorry. I just saw you outside the window- I meant to ask if you were alright, you seemed so deep in thought, I don't know why I said that I- " The string of words stopped as he took a moment with a hand on his chest to take a breath before his smile turned sheepish as he looked up at him. " S-Sorry.. That was very intrusive of me. My name's Lapen, I own this book shop. Um.. If you're waiting for someone, you're welcome to wait inside where it's cool. "

@eldestoften :// " and if I decided I wanted to keep my secrets? i'm sure you've got plenty of your own... "

“secrets? the gaps that divide your knowledge from mine are the byproducts of centuries.” the solitude of the nonpareil, no more a burden than is living. as much as. “ask anything you wish. i'm an open book.”

"Technically speaking .... you're like a goldmine to feed from. Are you able to generate more blood on a whim? Is there a refractory period? Does what you consume influence the taste of your blood? Do you even need to eat?" All very sensible and pragmatic questions for no other reason than pure curiosity. Promise.

"No...no, don't need anything. You just seem interesting~" The girl giggles, walking closer. "Himiko Toga."

She waves with both hands in greeting.
