His hand,which she had expected to be very cold and slimy,was warm and comforting even in its degree of roughness. A slight blush spread across her face from both the touch and the words,both of which she was unused to. As he spoke about her loyalty she thought about what she had done,basically nothing in her eyes,but he said he valued it and that made her feel more confident about her self. For the first time she actually felt important.

"You're welcome to take some time off. Spend some time with your comrades in arms, if you like. I'll be looking for more slaves in the days to come. I doubt I shall find one that is your equal ever again, but I may find someone useful that can keep you company. "Meanwhile," he asked, "What are your charms, again? Or perhaps more simply, what are your skills, most specifically?"

She blushed again at his words.When he asked about her abilities she bit her lip nervously,ears twitching and tail wrapped around her ankle,"Although I have six charms,only two of them is an actual skill,in my opinion,and that would be the shield because of my powers of healing and barrier-making,and the paw print because I can turn into a cat. My other charms are the white pearl,heart,pencil,and the two hands holding one another."All in all she wasn't a very fantastic slave.She thought perhaps she had once known how to cook and clean well,but her amnesia prevented her from fully knowing.

"Alright, then," he said. "I'll keep those in mind." Honestly, he didn't intend to give her much. Just a little, mostly for the sake of having her feel useful. She was worth more at this point than any common slave, but he wouldn't release her. Not because he thought she'd leave; quite the contrary. It was because it seemed to him that she enjoyed being enthralled to him. "You're dismissed," he said. Rethinking this, he said "You're free to go, if you like." He was only watching, passively, after all. To be dismissed was more of an order to go away. She could stay or go as she pleased.

She thought for a minute and she simply styed where she was,simply wishing to be in the company of her Master.Her tail swung freely,and her ears were still as she smiled,just taking in the glory of being home where she had an easier time making sure her Master was safe from harms way,"If it is permitted i would like to stay with you."she smiled,fiddling with the charms on her collar.

Still looking at the sunset, he pat his thigh, calling her over the way one might a pet, quietly bidding her to sit next to where he stood.

Her ears twitched and she hastily sat beside him on her knees with her hands on her thighs,tail tapping the ground slowly.

He placed a hand lightly on her head and ran his fingers gently through her hair, taking care not to let his claws graze her scalp, at least not with enough pressure to cause any pain. He closed his eyes then, breathing deeply in and out, enjoying the serenity that the moment afforded him.

She smiled,closing her eyes.her tail swung it self into her lap and laid there still..She tried her best to overide her feline instincts so as not to purr and break the serene silence of the moment.

Matasoga let his tail slide around her hips, hardly aware that he was even doing it as he willed the rest of the muscles in his body to relax. Wasn't there a spell that would allow him to soften his scales and temporarily gain the benefits of a soothing massage? He'd have to look into that, later. His mind endlessly searched, wandered, plotted, and schemed, even when he was at his most at ease.

She blushed as his tail encircled her and she looked at him from the corner of her eye.She saw that he was thinking over things and decided that he wasn't concious of his tail at that moment so she just relaxed,the tail becoming more comforting to her then anything else.

"What do you think of all of this?" he muttered, at length, leaving the question deliberately open-ended.

She looked at him confused,"What do you mean?The war?"she looked back to the sky,tail tapping her thigh as she thought about his question,eagerly awaiting the answer.

"All of it," he began simply. "Everything that's happened since you joined us. What do you want to happen? What is it that you hope for?" All his life he had schemed, plotted, planned, and manipulated. As he saw it, he always would. He was, by his very nature a schemer, cautious and devious to the extreme. To be on top, to better his situation, to find first comfort, then affluence, then power were often central in his plans. But what about someone that had and desired none of these things. Someone comfortable to be chaotically swept from one place to another, to live at the will of someone else? That someone else being whoever finds and will take you? Having been something of a ladies man, he knew well that some people desired cruel treatment. He was no stranger to the emotional distance, the cold, imperious, aloof, and silently belittling nature that made so many of the small town girls melt in his hands, nor how sick it made him to see. That's how he was able to guiltlessly conduct his social experiments on them and learn the human nature without any loss of real importance if they were estranged from him or when he left. Then there was the sort of woman that wanted no apparent power. This was hardly exclusive to their gender, as Matasoga could well see the appeal of being the power behind the throne, as it were. Behind the throne, be it metaphorical or physical was always a safer place from which to rule than seated upon it, though he preferred the legitimacy and regal bearing allowed by real leadership. He was fairly sure that Lulu was neither. What did she desire? What made her tick? Asking these questions would allow him to learn these things. Inwardly he smiled. He was aware that for most people, this would be considered intense mental exercise. Many would consider it a stress to deal with, and an unpleasant action that they were forced to undertake. After those close to them were broken down, in their minds to their simplest parts, some might even consider it dehumanizing. For Matasoga, it was none of these. People were many things to him. Some were useful puppets, some were enjoyable company, some were compliant subjects, some were inconvenient obstacles, but all were delightful riddles to be solved, figured out, and unraveled.

He waited for some time. The pause was long, so he gave up on waiting and decided to give her some time. "You think on it, then," he said, giving her head a final affectionate pet and said, "I'll be back in a bit." He went in and took the elevator down. He told Sergius that he'd be back later. He was going to see about picking up an additional slave.
