Hana pulled a face and tilted her head. "Maybe it is the virginity I smell on you. It would be new, but not unheard of for someone like me." She seemed to be deep in thought as she looked away. "It's so strange, we're so much alike and so not alike at the same time. You don't like fighting and fighting is all I do for a living. Well not strictly fighting but it's part of the job description. And I mean I don't do it for a living but rather to uphold some bullshit philosophy my mentor left behind when she died. We both enjoy travelling. However I've slept with more men than I can.." She held her palms out in front of her, unable to count accurately without losing her spot. She'd slept with a lot of men. And women, although that was beside the point. "Strange.. so strange.." She looked back to him. "Can you make sense of anything that I'm saying right now?"
Evelyn looked to the woman with a scowl and was about to retort something rude before she had an idea. "Oh.. you don't actually know who I am.." She grinned down to Ruji before looking back to the woman. "I'm sorry, but the cat is trained, I can assure you. If you'd like I can show you." She then slowly started to shift into a cat also as she sat by Ruji's side, purple eyes shining. "See? Perfectly trained. Just like me."

*The women just razed a brow, "I guess I should have just saw that coming. There are a lot of shapeshifters these days. Well I ask you are more human-like in this store please." She grumbled to herself, "I'm going to put up a sign one of these days." She shook her head. Ruji gave her a kitty smile, "I think you handled that well. Thankyou." He nodded and looked up to the dresses again, "you know we could just go as cats. Less clothing needed that way. And way easyer to carry gear..." he tried. Oh how he tried.
Joch stared at her blankly then shrugged, "not the foggiest idea really. Sounds to me your confused over yourself." He shrugged and chuckled sitting down on the tableside and crossing his arms, "all I got out of it was, job, travling, and sleeping with men." He shrugged again, "I don't get your point really. But I guess its worth a shot." He smirked, "I assume however you were trying to get somewhere." He looked around, "just arrived in the town this morning. You live here right?" He stood up, "could... show me around... maybe I can get a view of this new castle I've heard about. Never seen a castle before, it's why I travled out this way actually. I figured it be a sight to see."

Evelyn laughed and shifted back into her human form. "You know as cats we would stick out even more. That's not going to happen." She picked him up and hugged him close to her as she looked towards the dresses again. "Seems to me like you're trying to get out of wearing a suit all together, you don't even know what it's like yet." She grinned. "Although you're not going to like it." She snickered. "Suits are like sweat traps. Trying to get Dante to go shopping for one once was like torture for him. He couldn't wait to get out of it." She tilted her head. "However because you're a man I suppose you're going to handle it better? Right Ruji?" She asked him patronisingly.
Hana sighed, giving up on trying to work it out as she nodded. "Yeah, I guess I can show you around. Wouldn't want you getting into trouble with all these racist Yokai anyway." She snickered and swept her hair aside. "The castle's not that amazing, but I guess it would be to someone who hasn't seen one before." She grinned to him. "And lucky for you you've got one of the princesses to give you a personal tour around the inside." She held a half smile. "What a lucky boy."

Joch chuckled as he got up, putting ghis arms behind his head, "cool. And being lucky all the time isn't that great let me tell ya." He started to follow her out, "so they made out of stone like the articals say? Or is all actually a plastic cheap look alike? I was inpressed with the parimads, not so much with the iffle tower though. Too simple, just a big bunch of steal beams." He shrugged. "Eh I don't want to stur up trouble, and more questions. I don't like gaining too much attneiton at once from people who talk too much or not enough. Questioning everything over and over again. Wanting to know everything, even though it doesn't matter to them at all." He shrugged again.
Ruji blinked, "... I certainly hope so. I surly can endure anything... if I hav eto live with waring a mask of all things." He lowered his head and gave a putting cat face again. He was just saying, he didn't like masks. He had his reasons. However he was a man, "I will endure however. Perhaps you can finally show me this feared... suit you speak of?"

Hana shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know, wanting to know things isn't necessarily bad. My brother used to have tantrums when he was younger because no one would tell him anything. Hilarious, it was. Although I'm a firm believer in the fact that if you want to know something then go experience it yourself." She nodded, putting her hands in her pockets as she led them out from the darker side of town and into the bright city. "And you'll be surprised to know that the castle is in fact made from stone. Enchanted stone, even. Made to keep all the bad things out. Even though half of the bad things resides in its very ******** walls."
Evelyn grinned. "Your wish is my command sir." She slowly walked away from the womens section and into the mens section. She didn't know much about mens clothing, but she'd learned enough when Dante, Cale and Shortstraw were sporting their suits at Kiera's ball. "Here we are." They first came across a variety of different coloured shirts piled next to hung up suit jackets of all sorts, even waistcoats where hung up next to them. "They're all pretty generic, at least with dresses you can get different kinds."

Joch chuckled, "kinda like that anywhere really I guess. I rest my point however on what I had said earlier." He shrugged it away though, "still such a building must be a good sight." As they got closer he noticed int he distance, "ahhhh there it is. A classic~" He stared in aww as they got closer and closer up the road leading to the large building. "It's certainly a sight worth seeing for travlers." He pulled a campra out from his pocket and took a picture, "that's going in my scrap book." He chuckled winding the camra. "Sure we wont get trouble entering inside? I bet the kitchen is so big it can house a hundred people."
Ruji blinked, "they are small wares and trenchcoats? That's all. I can handle this." He nodded and shifted to humanish form to check one out, "and this one is a dark blue... interesting." He looked to her, "I think this isn't going to be as hard as it sounded. Why do people hate these again?" He put the jacket on and shifted around in it, "kinda warm and heavy... but surly enough padding if I fell out of the building." He nodded.

Hana laughed. "Where did this uncaring attitude you led me to believe you had go? Surely you don't care what my family will think in there." She snickered and opened the front double doors to let them both in. They were greeted with a massive opening with two grand staircases leading up to the top floor at either sides of the room, and a balcony up at the top just where the hallway of the top floor started. To either side of them were numerous doors to rooms and Hana led Joch to the other side. "My brother designed it with the help of his advisers, Vergil and Lilly." She dragged him into the kitchen which was massive in itself, the countertops spanned across the room with multiple pans and pots hanging from the ceiling. This was mostly where Lilly resided. "Lilly does most if not all of the cooking for us, although it's hard to get everyone in the same place at the same time." She walked over to the giant fridge where she got out an energy drink and cracked it open. "Impressive isn't it?"
Evelyn giggled although quickly stopped because that didn't feel right of her at all to be giggling. "Well glad to know you're not like all the other weak men out there who hate wearing suits." She smiled and fixed the suit for him. "People hate wearing them because they're stuffy."

he shrugged over her comment while being led insidr, " its the one fact that dodging hostility would be harder here. Tourists like me attract too much attention when they have a camera in places like this..." He took a picture of the fridge of all things. " lilly like the flower? I once found a field of white lillys was a sight to see."
Ruji shrugged ," stuffy? What is that mean? Never mind, it doesn't matter. He grabbed some matching pants. So she used to call him a child now a man. He seemed to be moving up the latter.

Hana nodded. "Yeah, like the flower. Lilly tries to be a lot like a person who used to live here but died because of my brothers stupidity. Lilly is much better as her own person though, even if she does hate me." She shrugged. "Most people in this family hate me to be fair, so that's a pointless statement." She led him out of the kitchen and into the living room which was as large as the kitchen, with giant sofa's and a tv that spanned one of the walls. "I don't spend much time here." She sighed. "It's just a modernised castle, I don't see why you're so fascinated."
Evelyn smiled. "It means tight or crowded, you know?" She quickly got him a matching bow tie and put it on his pile. "I think this will look good on you." She however held a small blush as she said that. "I think.." She looked away.

Joch didn't bother taking a picture living rooms were all the same. "Sounds to me she perhaps envious." He smerked, " you really need to see the recent world. Most these days are small building with only one room. And yet people still admire past palace's. This is history I'm the making baby~ and when everything changes and I'm old and grey, I can say I've been here~" he nodded awaiting you go on with the tore.
Ruji gave a small smile, " well if we are sighted I must make sure not to make a butiful women next to me look bad now can I? I'll go put these on." And he headed to the dressing rooms like last time...

Hana rose an eyebrow to Joch, unconvinced. "Sure." She led him out of the living room and into the massive ballroom that opened up like a massive church with as high as the ceiling was. "And here we have the place in which all social events are held." She sighed. "Even though my family hate having people over." She looked back to him. "I'm aware what others lives are. From the time that I was born until I was around ten years old I travelled with my adoptive family and saw each ecosystem in its prime, and in its defeat. I, unlike every other person in this family, know what it feels to be not at a priviledge. Because these people take it for granted. I don't like to spend time here really. I'm not an honourous person, but I'm not ignorant either."
Evelyn smiled as she looked to the floor and slowly walked over to the entrance of the changing rooms where she waited eagerly for Ruji to come out.
"Some were opposed." "Understandable." Kyle sat in his void, in his own little created area which was a small green field where he played with Conor, pulling faces at him as he giggled. "That family has been through enough to recognise a threat when they see one." Nate grinned. "I think you like to leave yourself out of that family when you in fact are part of it too." Kyle sighed and brought Conor onto his lap with a small hug which Conor appreciated. "We're very different, them and I." He looked into a small bubble which monitored different members of the family at his will, showing what they were doing. "They're all so corrupt. And they deny their corruption." His green eyes flashed a moment. "However I know my own corruption, and use it to benefit me."

Joch nodded taking a picture, " sounds to me your more for the job then they are. For a princess, your not half bad." He pointed to the stairs, " that lead to bedrooms?" He seemed interested, " I would like to get a good tote before my cameras full. Only got a few shots left."

Hana nodded as she led him up the stairs. "Most people would disagree with you. I'm a disappointment to my family, but I like it that way. They stay out of my business, never know what's going on behind the scenes. Because they don't want to know, right?" She gave him a grin. "They're all so stupid." She walked past the rooms showing him Dante's and Shortstraw and Kiera's and both the twins rooms before coming up to her own. "And here we come to the end of the tour." She walked over to her large window and sat on the windowsill. Her room was bare, unusually bare. She was a very creative person with a very creative personality, but her room was dull and boring and her bed didn't even looked to have been used once. This was for a very special reason. "So now you got an insight into life at the Yokai castle, I bet you don't feel any more enlightened for it right?" She snickered over to him.
"Are you sure? I sometimes see some family members with potential." Kyle sighed and shook his head. "This does not count certain... less knowledgable members of the family." Nate snickered and looked into his bubble which showed Evelin and Theodore training. "The twins."

Joch took a picture of each room and even Hana's. " actually I quiet appresate the tore. Dispite the people its a pretty alright place. Hopefully will look great In the history books 100 years from now." The only mistake, you yap to much about the difference between them and you. Like then however your thriving to make a point." He looked to his watch, " gotta book my hotel before the rooms are gone." He tossed her the camera and turned to leave while shoving his hands in his pockets, " looks to me your more like the ones you claimed to hate. Later hana, was fun while it lasted."

Hana was in front of him suddenly and cracked a slap right across his face. "Don't you dare compare me to them." She looked incredibly angry, and rightfully so. She based her whole philosophy of being a person who was an odd one in the family, the princess who didn't quite fit, and a person who enjoyed being in the uncomfortable place she was. Being compared to people she disliked was probably one of the only things that would make her lose her calm temperament. In short, he'd struck a nerve. Which was something that no one had done in the past apart from Dante. "Don't you ******** dare." She shoved him back. "Being the person I am is not a weakness, and you're an imbecile for implying as much. I mean just look at you, you're a pointless existence. At least I'm trying to make something of myself." She swallowed her words as quickly as she'd said them, and she looked to the side slowly with some sort of internal acknowledgement, her anger quickly disappearing. She didn't look back to him as she then let out a small sigh. "Get lost. Good luck booking a hotel with all that no money you have." She walked back away from him and down the stairs where she exited the house to shift into her wolf form and gallop into the surrounding woods.
