 Kazuo Kinshen
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
Where Am I: SLAVE MARKET
Who Am I with: SARAH // AILEEN
What Is My Mood: SURPRISED
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
White Weretiger  ❝ Please, call me Koko ❞
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Sarah huffed as the human hit the floor, eyes open and waiting to make sure she was alright. The tiger deemed her fine when she put the sketchpad down and pet her head again. Licking Aileen's palm, Sarah stood up with a grumble, getting off of her. Durable or not, something was bound to go wrong when she had approximately 300 extra pounds of weight just sitting on top of her. The tiger jumped onto the loveseat next to them after that, setting down and closing her eyes again. Kazuo, for his part, was almost completely incoherent. He had curled himself around her torso, only half on top of her. When she asked if she should apologize all that came out was a quiet nonsensical mumbling. It wasn't his fault he wasn't use to someone messing with his ears; they were very sensitive! Of course the other cats wouldn't melt into putty like this, they were use to it. Everyone pet them after they got over the fear of being eaten.
Realizing that this was happening practically in public, and Riley was waiting impatiently at home and this could be happening with all of them, Sarah jumped off of the couch again and walked over to Koko, nosing at the hand that was petting him. When Aileen stopped, the tiger nudged Kazuo with her nose, taking the back of his shirt collar and throttling him by it when he didn't respond, dragging him into a sitting position. He blinked at her as she conveyed they should leave, tossing her head towards the door and making a quiet cat-roar thing that big cats did. Shaking the fuzziness away, the weretiger stood up, swaying slightly on his feet before turning to Aileen and offering her a hand up. "Uh, right. We should go home so you can meet the rest of the family," he said, smiling slightly. Well, there went the formal impression of respecting personal space. After helping her up, Sarah snuffled at his pocket until he pulled out his wallet. Taking it from him with her teeth, the tiger pawed the door open before darting away down the hall. Peering after her, he said, "I guess she went to go pay. Shall we?" he said, holding the door open for Aileen. He wasn't quite sure how Sarah or Ms. Pallas would handle that one. He supposed he would also have to come back here another day; it was only a matter of time before Aileen became Riley's accidental scratch post.

 x"Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt..."
It was a relief when Sarah got up off of her and gave her a bit of a break. Aileen let out a breath as the weight was lifted and she was able to actually take a deep breath without having her ribs crushed. Kazuo was heavy, but not as much as the tiger, at least in this form anyway. Not really sure what he was doing and having to assume he was cuddling with her, Aileen just kept petting his ear and trying to figure out how she was going to get up with him pinning her to the floor like this. It was sort of uncomfortable, being on the floor, and a little embarrassing for her as well. What was she even supposed to do now? She was still surprised at how strong his reaction had been and Aileen was left guessing that maybe no one really did that because he was human. Her eyes went wide as Sarah came back over and throttled Koko, dragging him upright, but she had to giggle softly at the expression on his face. He looked more than a little bit surprised, but not really embarrassed as he got to his feet, she realized.
Letting him pull her to her feet, Aileen, straightened out her clothing and couldn't help but smile when he said they should get going. So she could 'meet the rest' of the family. That meant they were taking her home. It was funny how he was swaying for a moment before catching himself, as if he were drunk, and looked a bit dazed. Aileen watched in confusion at the exchange between the two, her gaze following the white tiger as she took the wallet and padded out of the room. To go pay for her? How was that going to work? Gathering up her sketchpad, the only thing that was hers, Aileen looked at him in confusion. "Didn't you say you were getting someone else?" she asked hesitantly, walking over and looking up at the man. In truth, she was a little relieved it was just her, not sure how she'd get along with another slave and a little possessive. But it wasn't as if it were her place to say anything, she knew. "And I'm more than ready to go home," the young woman added, giving him a small smile.

 Pyotr eventually gave up on the thought of anyone coming by to pick him up. He wanted out of this mansion but he couldn't fathom how he would get out if no one came. If anything, he thought that maybe he'd go insane waiting for liberation. Maybe he should try being a bit more patient... Surely someone would come. He got up from his chair and went to the bookshelves. His hands skipped along several bindings and golden titles. The only things that called out to him from the several books were the ones about magic. He missed being able to summon enchantments and feel the currents of power surge through him... He missed being his own person and knowing what the next day would bring. Would he just rot away in this room smelling of roses and countless perfumes?

There is nothing to fear... ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ Ѧяȼɐєϕ ӄɐʠɪӎ Well, that was easier than he expected. But he was getting free food and clothing and a house to live in. Not a bad deal to him. Arcaeo willingly followed the Hallow's eve demon out of the door, passed the woman who owned the place. He was half listening to the woman now, his ears tuned into the grumbling in his stomach. He looked up at her once more, raising an eyebrow at her clothing comments.
What was she saying about 1002? Her husband...no she hadn't been married. It was her father she'd been talking about. Whatever she'd been humming was now fluttering around his head like an irritating bug. He decided to tune in at the end of the sentence. "How old are you?Dead people clothing? Nah, not really my thing. C'mon let's get outta here. You have trees, right? Lots of them?" He suddenly didn't care about clothes or food. He never really cared about the former, but the sudden desire to be out in nature once again. He'd been confined for so long, he was suddenly anxious to get back out to where he was supposed to be. He wanted this damn collar off so he could run and shift as he pleased.
"Can we go now? I'm getting impatient now. Food, clothes, home. Let's do this. Now. Do you have a car or something, or are we walking there? Can you take this collar off me or something?" Arcaeo was bouncing on his heels now, huffing out of his nostrils. He was unconsciously tapping his hands on his thighs to the beat of 'This is Halloween'. How did this song get into his head so quickly? He balled his fists and scratched at the leather collar. It suddenly felt too tight, constricting him. He looked her up and down, then went through the exit door towards the outside world. A guard eyeballed him suspiciously, but the shape-shifter gestured towards the demon right behind the door. The guard nodded, and turned back to his position.

 Drew Barlett Kohii's energy level was dizzying. Drew withdrew a little bit, blinking rapidly. He glanced up at the older woman when she commented and he couldn't help but laugh a little. He straightened his posture a little, crossing his legs beneath himself.
"I'm a milk elf...I didn't know coffee pots had spirits. Is that why your name is Kohii? That's Japanese for 'coffee', right?" He smiled at remembering the language his mother taught him. She'd told him that their people were from Japan, so it was only natural that he learned Japanese. He looked at the smaller, dark haired girl, then at the taller woman. Something she'd rather keep to herself. He understood. Some things weren't the sharing kinda things.
"I can tell, but I've been around much perkier people. And you don't seem dull, just a lot more reserved than the coffee pot." He laughed to himself, certain that the tsukumogami would give him hell for not calling her a spirit. "So, Theana...should I call you Theana? Is there a reason you chose me over everyone else? There are so many others, I'm not that important over them, even though this says differently." He stroked his velvet collar, fingering the star that dangled from his throat. To their standards, he was some exotic creature, and technically it was true. But he didn't feel very special. He just felt...tired. Slightly excited. He felt like the coffee pot spirit would get along with the milk elf. Screaming, crying, hurting, dying, suffering, wishing

The spirit nodded when he guessed at her name, pleased he had. Not many people thought about it, or her, at all. They saw her as something that served the homunculus and that was it, giving her no more thought than they would a pet. And while that didn't actually bother Kohii much at all, it was pleasant to have someone to talk to. Theana smiled as she watched them interact, a slight twisting of her lips some might mistake for a grimace if they didn't know her better. She had learned many emotions and facial expressions over the years and could pass for human, save for her coloring, but smiling was not something she was very good at in the least. Kohii was the only one able to make her do so at all, let alone laugh out loud. It was as if there was still something weighing her down heavily that kept her soul from being able to properly express any sort of happiness.
At his questions, she tipped her head a bit, a hand resting on Kohii's head as the spirit happily bounced back over to her side. "You can call me whatever you want, Drew," she assured him in a soft tone. "Kohii calls me 'Thea', you may as well if you want. I'm not very picky about such things. As for why I am here instead of another room..." She trailed off, thinking. There wasn't really any reason in particular, his collar indicated he was gentle, neat, polite...but there were many other things like that as well. Frowning a bit as she thought, Thea lapsed into silence, an unnerving trait that usually had people growing anxious at the sudden stop in conversation.
"You're like Thea," Kohii supplied cheerfully, startling her mistress. "You're both special. So you'll get along well! And I like you too - so can he come home with us, then?" the spirit asked, getting right down to business. The homunuclus looked a bit off-balance at the sudden decision, but wasn't going to say 'no'. She could never say that to her darling little spirit, which resulted in some horrible spoiling. Not that Kohii was ever ruined, she was too goodnatured to be by it.
Looking back to Drew, there was the twitch at the corner of her lips again. "Well, I'll pretend you have a choice, since Kohii always seems to get her way," the female remarked in obvious amusement. "Would you like to go home with us, Drew? There isn't much of anything for you to do, you can have your own room and bath, do what you want...it would just be nice to have someone around to talk to," Theana admitted. Despite Kohii, she was lonely, wanting companionship, and Drew seemed gentle enough to be able to deal with both Kohii and her own odd moods. Some other would get angry, or bored, or frustrated. So far he had taken it all in good grace.

シンチア もつ Drew Barlett What, no 'mistress'? Not a 'm'am' or even a 'sir'? She didn't seem like any of the masters that he'd, unfortunately, grown up around and gotten used to. Sleazy men between the ages of twenty and eighty who just want a sex doll to mess with. And the mistresses were usually sadistic dominatrices who want to make their slaves grovel and kiss their feet for a day's meal. But this woman, who was making a face that looked to be half indecision and half pleased, was completely different. The closest thing he'd had to someone like her was his last master.
He looked at Kohii with a little pity in his eyes. He wasn't really that special. However, he couldn't say anything about Thea. He didn't know much about her. And the tsukumogami was just absolutely perky. If he had been a normal person and he'd met her, they'd probably in a coffee shop sharing past experie-- nevermind that thought, how about books? He liked books. He let his mind wander a while, listening to Kohii almost tangible energy ebb and flow and she bounced around.
Then Thea spoke up again. Drew nodded quietly at her words, absorbing every syllable individually. It was true; he was a slave, and they had zero choices in matters like this. It was up to the most interested person, the highest bidder, whether he was to go home with them. But they seemed pretty nice, so who was he to argue? Even if he did argue, it wouldn't get him very far. He'd still be going home with the strange woman and her spirit friend.
Drew took a breath and let it out, wrapping his arms around himself, generating the heat that his worn blue hoodie lacked. "Of course, I'd love to join you. And my own room sounds nice, can't say I've ever had one. Always shared with someone." A flash of the redhead vampire who he used to room with came before his eyes. He sighed nostalgically. The person who'd kept the milk elf's strand of sanity wrapped around his fingers. But back to reality, the present, the two people in his chamber here and now. He stood up and brushed his pants for invisible dirt. A small twitch of a smile began to twist his lips up as he looked at the two. "Please don't find me rude, but I must ask; are you two sisters?" Screaming, crying, hurting, dying, suffering, wishing

The little spirit cheered happily when he said he'd go with them, ignoring the rest of his words as she hopped around. Thea noted that he said he'd never had his own room and wondered if he would prefer to share with someone - she had simply assumed a slave would want their own room, but perhaps she was mistaken? This was all very strange for her and guessing seemed to be getting her nowhere. At his next question, she chuckled a bit, making Kohii pause and look at her with wide brown eyes the color of toffee. Shaking her head, the female brushed some hair from her ruby eyes and gave him a gentle look, to show she wasn't angry or upset. "No, not at all. I found Kohii in an antique shop about three hundred years ago when I was traveling," she old him, as the years meant nothing to her.
As Kohii took her wallet and went skidding down the hall to go pay, Theana shook her head patiently. "She's very excited to have a new friend to talk to. I'm afraid I get a bit dull at times...you can only talk to someone for so long before your ideas get stale, after all," she remarked with a slight shrug, as if it didn't bother her in the least. Thinking on his previous words, the woman went over and took a seat, Crossing her legs, one knee over the other, she sat back and appeared to make herself comfortable, even though her back was straight as a rod. It seemed impossible for her to really relax, even at home there was something about her that suggested she was always doing her utmost to create a favorable impression.
"You mentioned you never had your own room before," Theana began gently. "It's still yours as you want it. If you decide you'd rather share a room with Kohii, or even myself, that is fine as well. It took her quite a long time to get used to having her own room, I still leave my door open at night in case she decides to come bother me in the middle of the night. You may feel free to do so as well if you need me for anything," she continued, without any implication that she meant anything behind those words. That was easy for her, as she didn't, and she rested her hands on her raised knee while she thought. "I don't expect you to do much. Be a companion for Kohii, that's really it. You can do as you wish, go where you like - " She waved her hand, as if dismissing a thought.

Drew Barlett It took great amounts of effort to not laugh as Kohii ran excitedly out of his room to alert the woman who owned the manor that Drew was leaving with them. He listened to Theana's brief story and nodded. They didn't seem like sisters, but they were rather close. I guess finding someone and giving them a home was something that strengthened bonds.
As she spoke again, he furrowed his brow. She looked like a very interesting person....then again he'd never been around people that he could describe with the adjective interesting, so who was he to talk? "I wouldn't say that. Sometimes talking to the same person is the exact thing you need. It just depends on what you want and who you are." He smiled and crossed his arms over his flat chest. He didn't want to talk anymore, he wasn't for talking back and forth forever. Instead of responding again, he just nodded absently, leaning back against the wall, staring at the floor.
Talking always lead to bad places. Talking leads to stories, which meant she'd tell one, and expect him to tell one in response. That wasn't happening. Stories fro the past weren't fun to him. 'How's your mom?' Hasn't seen her in years. 'What about dad?' Never met him, and he wanted me dead. 'Any good memories?' No. He reached over to the bed and grabbed his stuffed rabbit, clutching it in his arms tightly. He buried his face in its old, slightly rigid fur. "Not to ignore what you've said, but are we going soon?" Drew ran his hands over Patches' ears, feeling the fur tickle his palm with each passing. "But...back to what you wanted... I guess I'd be a good companion...I kinda was one before, for a prince, no real companion experience before that..." His voice grew quieter after that, and his hand seemed to move faster over the rabbit's ear. Screaming, crying, hurting, dying, suffering, wishing

Theana wished the spirit was here to help her as she realized Drew was growing anxious about something. Had she said something wrong, frightened him somehow? She hadn't meant to. Frowning a bit to herself, her expression smoothed out and she rose to her feet with a nod. She wanted to make sure he was all right going home with them and he seemed he was. Nervous, perhaps, but she could hardly blame him. They were strangers. Well, hopefully he would warm up to Kohii at least. Although the homunculus was really the one that needed a companion, she put her spirit first as always, doting on her and trying to make sure she wasn't doing anything to accidentally cause her harm somehow.
"Of course, if you're ready. I'm sure Kohii has settled everything with the mistress," Theana said with another twitch of her lips, her own version of a smile. "Don't worry about impressing me or what I require, Drew. Just do as you please and be patient with Kohii, she's quite energetic. That's all I ask of you, anything else is whatever you wish to do, I promise." If anyone was aware of how little a promise meant, it was the woman, but she truly did mean it. She didn't wish to cause him undue distress and smoothed out her jacket as she headed towards the door, watching him carefully. His charms, the colors, indicated he had mental problems. What they were, she didn't know and didn't really care - she could handle them.
He needed a safe place to be. And Kohii was good for anyone's spirit, she should know. Opening the door, Thea looked down as said spirit sprinted back towards them, beaming. "Everything is taken care of!" she said happily, bouncing on her heels before running over to where Drew stood. Rather than grabbing his hand like she might have otherwise, Kohii offered her small hand up to him with a happy smile. "Come on, Drew, you get to come home with us!" she told him excitedly.

xHelp me find who I used to be... Anistasia Whyte ... And save me from what I have become
Anistasia made her way through the downstairs halls of the market, getting tugged and pulled along. The only sound other than her limping paws and the footsteps of the two men in front of her was a low growling that came from behind a muzzle tied over her face. Her eyes looked straight forward and it seemed Anistasia had given up on fighting them. She's fought them enough when they're been dragging her from her home and she was too tired and wounded to continue. Anistasia had been sold by her old master into slaver and it had been quite a shock to the girl after all that they'd been though.
It wasn't until they got to a door near the end of the dark hallway. Anistasia was let into a dusty and dim room. As son as the men were gone and no longer able to watch her, she collapsed onto the floor and panted softly, whining and trying to lick her wounds before she realized the muzzle was still in the way. She transformed and pushed the stupid muzzle off her face as she panted softly, looking down at her bare skin. There were spots were it was bruised and spots where the skin was broken and bleeding, making the girl wince just at the look of it. She would heal on her own but with the exhaustion weighing heavily on her, she was sure they wouldn't heal too quickly. She hardly had enough energy to stand back up. She had the sudden urge to cry but when no tears came to her eyes, Anistasia just let out dry sobs, not sure what to do. She hadn't thought she would be separated from her master any time soon and had been completely satisfied with being his pet, which was unusual since Anistasia hated all humans.
She laid there for a while longer before she finally pulled herself to her feet, having to grip at the wall and objects on her way to keep from collapsing again. She made her way into the bathroom and let herself sit down in the bath tub, turning the water on and shivering slightly until it turned cold. Anistasia took a look at herself in the mirror and sighed. She was a mess. Her wounds was hardly closing up and her hair was matted with blood. The sight of herself like this wasn't much of a surprise to the girl. She'd been worse off so she turned away from her reflection and began to wash herself, hissing as water ran over her wounds. Once her hair and skin were clean of dirty and blood, she drained the water, murky and pink from her skin, and filled it again to lay back in the hot water and relax. "This sucks," she muttered to herself, numbing herself to her surroundings. Had she really been so close to crying earlier? Pathetic. Despite thinking that, as soon as Anistasia got out of the tub and dried herself, she crawled into bed and curled up under the sheets, starting to sob once again. She felt too betrayed to keep her feelings in check.

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
Where Am I: SLAVE MARKET
Who Am I with: POCHI // AILEEN
What Is My Mood: SURPRISED
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
White Weretiger ❝ Please, call me Koko ❞
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
At her inquiry, Kazuo simply shrugged as he led the human out into the hallway. "Sarah seems a little impatient now. We might not find another person today," he responded, leading her in the opposite direction that Sarah had taken off in. He returned the small smile she'd offered him, though it was much wider; good, at least she wasn't too reluctant to come with him. Of course, the way he made it sound, it probably was a better option to anyone staying here. Though as he led her further down the corridors, his ears picked up on a quiet sound, probably too quiet for Aileen's human ears to detect yet. It was a very depressing sound, a broken noise that he'd already begun to track without him realizing it. Who was making such a sound? Surely he hadn't heard it on his way in here; at least, he didn't recall hearing it. The closer he got, he realized it was the sound of someone crying. Letting his ears lead him to the source, the sound was now more evident as they approached the door, the source of the crying behind it.
Holding up one finger to his lips for Aileen, he gently knocked on the door, opening it after a moment. Peering inside, it took a moment for his eyes to find the small form under the bedsheets. It was a small female, and--scenting the air--not a human one. The air was damp, like she had taken a bath or a shower. But he did not smell any salt. Slowly, he walked further into the room, head slightly ducked as he approached the foot of the bed. The further into the room he got, he realized there were faint traces of blood and dirt, grime, in the air. "Miss, are you alright?" Stupid, stupid question, really. It was a slave market, she probably just recently brought in here. She was crying, for Christ sakes! And who wouldn't be, in a place like this? The slaves that did not cry he thought of as strong, brave even. Aileen had certainly not been in such a broken state when he encountered her, though he did not know if she had been doing it previously, before he had stepped foot onto the estate. Glancing back at Aileen in the doorway, Kazuo prepared himself for any kind of reaction from the shifter under the covers.

Drew Barlett He caught the smallest wisp of a frown before she stood. Had she been worried about him? Look at him, causing problems for everyone he comes in contact with. He sighed, but his hand dropped from the rabbit's ear, his eyes following her cautiously. He huffed softly, looking down at Patches lovingly. He looked at Thea, then at Patches. She almost reminded him of his mother, but her eyes were green. That was an aspect he'd remember clearly. Her calming eyes hovering over him as she laid him in his bed when he was younger, petting his head and singing him a lullaby. The rabbit would lay in bed next to him, usually wrapped in his small arms while his mother would sing, waiting until he was sound asleep before stopping and leaving.
It took a moment before Drew realized that he'd slipped into the quiet, pleasant place in his mind that he escaped to in distress, tuning out the world. But he wasn’t upset now, he was just nostalgic of the way things had been. He'd begun humming a song that his mother had taught him long ago. The elf blushed profusely with embarrassment filling him, gripping his stuffed bunny and bringing to his chest protectively. Thea's lips were moving, but it took a few shakes of his head before he could tune into her voice once again, and even then he only caught the end of it. "Be Kohii's companion, got it." He nodded reassuringly, hoping that she hadn't noticed his blank out. He wasn’t one to tune people out randomly like that, and he was remorseful. She’d probably been saying something of importance, and he was there ignoring her.
He followed behind Thea quietly, eyes trained on the floor instead of on her, when the coffee pot spirit burst through the door with her unlimited supply of energy. He looked down at her and gave a half smile, accepting her smaller hand in his. "Alright, that sounds good. Lead the way." He looked back at Thea and gave her the same face, adding a slight nod in her direction as he did. He almost felt some worry towards him. She was caring more about this creature than herself. It could be plain old selflessness, or perhaps she felt...worthless? Unimportant? Like she didn’t deserve the attention that he or the tsukumogami were granting him. Drew’s shoulders’ sagged a bit with a sigh that escaped him nearly silently. Screaming, crying, hurting, dying, suffering, wishing
じしょ なく しょう しぬ くる ねがう
I could just rewind it
それ を まいけ
Backwards, backwards, backwards, backwards, backwards, backwards
こほ こほ こほ こほ こほ こほ
Now that it's rewinded

Will this nightmare ever end? Will I be set free?

Welcome to my Paradise, that's slowly crumbling away

Will you go away?

 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx⋙ Annabel Olivia Naitngale ✗ Ͻ.O.O
.яwɒЯ A CONSTELLATION OF TEARS ON YOUR ______________________↘↘ ℓαsɦℯsBURN EVERYTHING YOU LOVE THEN BURN THE _________________________↘↘ αsɦℯsI JUST GOT TO GET YOU OUT THE CAGE ON MY OWN LOVER'S ____________________________↘↘ ɾαℊℯAnnabel tried to get some sort of understandable reply out as a blush began to spread across her face and let out a sigh and gave a small nod when the raven haired male on the bed finished her statement. “I suppose that is one way to put it.” She replied softly looking around the room and actually looking at the man for the first time. Not only was the man tall, he was also very handsome. Which only made the female’s blush begin to rival her crimson orbs in color. The neko offered only another bob of the head in response to his assumption as she tried to calm herself down enough to talk to the male properly. Annabel’s shy nature had almost always been an issue when she and Kaoru were growing up and sometimes even when they had been living with the family that had taken them in.
”I was dragged here by my sister.” she added, looking around the room and noticing that it seemed as though the male hadn’t been here for long. ”You came here recently?” the ebony haired woman asked as she turned her attention back to the man after getting her blush under control. The room didn't look like its occupant had been there very long, or perhaps the male just didn't bother with the things in the room. "Oh! I'm Annabel by the way. What's your name?" Sure he was in an unfortunate situation, but that was no good reason to be rude to him now was it?
The crimson eyed woman took a moment while he decided to answer her or not to look at the collar tried not to seem too shocked by the chain that around his neck. She knew Kaoru would be far from pleased with her if Annabel somehow ended up bringing the male with her when she went in search of her sister. The colors on the other hand Annabel knew she could deal with, she wasn’t too sure about Kaoru. Annabel wouldn’t be bothered by the silence that she was sure came with the man based on the colors around his neck. Kaoru had a thing for making a nuisance of herself when she was bored which usually worked better when she had someone to do it with her, Annabel more often than not being the target. Shifting from the collar itself to the charms hanging from it Annabel wasn’t entirely surprised by the sword and shield charms, she had a feeling that if anything the sword, and crescent moon, had something to do with why he had that chain. “Garnet, he’s a vampire then…or something close to that.” Over all Annabel had a feeling that her sibling wouldn’t be overly fond of the man that the younger neko seemed to have taken an interest in. He didn’t seem all that horrible in her eyes though, she decided that she would talk with him for a while and see if it would work out with him.

x"Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt..."
Nodding at his words, Aileen quietly followed him down the hall. It was a relief to know she was leaving this place and stuck close to his side. She might have worried about invading his personal space if he was anyone else, but considering he'd laid practically on top of her while she rubbed his ear, the young woman didn't think that he would really have a problem with her staying close to his side for now. The last thing she wanted was for someone to think she was trying to run away - just the idea of what they might do to her made her shudder. Not wanting to dwell on it for much longer, the young woman just padded quietly with him down the hall, looking for Sarah to see if the tiger was coming back or just going to wait for them in the main room, or lobby, whatever it was called. She'd heard the place referred to as a 'manor' and wondered if that was just to sound nice, or if it was some sort of renovated house or something. Well, it didn't matter to her anyway now, since she was going to get to go home and hopefully get her freedom soon.
When he suddenly went down another hallway, looking as if he heard something, Aileen blinked in confusion. Well, she hadn't heard anything, but she had little choice but to follow him anyway. As they reached a door and he motioned for her to be quiet, she nodded and stayed a bit away, not sure who or what could end up being on the other side of the door. There were plenty of dangerous beings here, she knew, biting her lip. But she was still curious about who it was. Hearing him ask if the girl was all right, Aileen peered in a bit, standing just outside the doorway. She had been like that when she was first brought here, only she'd hid in the bathroom and cried for what felt like hours on end. Then she'd realized it just made her feel worse and wasn't going to get anyone to help her, so she'd forced herself to stop and try to act somewhat normal. Feeling a nudge, Aileen looked down curiously to see Sarah prodding at her hand impatiently. She gave the tiger a small smile and returned her attention back to the room, her hand going to the tiger's fur and scratching her head companionably.
