Sin smirked at her, tail flicking. Why had he chased it to her? He knew she probably wouldn't like it if he just killed it and tossed it at her. He smirked at her, shaking his head. He had eaten one of them before, but he didn't see it as much as a pain, more like a little trial to see how much you wanted to eat the particular prey. He hesitated, unsure wether to test it and see if he could join her eating, or just let her be. Was he even on that level, yet, perhaps?

Lamia just snorted. It was starting to be hammered home in her head that Sin was a law unto himself; perhaps she was spoiled with having dealt solely with sheep-like predictable foxes.
Despite her complaint about the fur her teeth sunk through it and into flesh easily enough. With a violent jerk of her head she tore off a slab that had once been a shoulder, and stepping backwards a couple paces with it to eat it away from the main body.
Lamia didn't say anything, but her posture was relaxed enough.

He eyed her, tail flicking to the side and curling under him, pausing in both thought and breath when he watched her. She was a interesting vixen, no, special in a way. He was at the point where he was realizing that if she suddenly left, if she suddenly chose to be with someone then he would probably be angry. Angry? Or..... hell, like he wanted to realize this. Maybe he did. Maybe it was okay to feel like this...
"May I?" He asked, jerking his head at the meat, smirking at her, wary and yet waiting for her response. Before she probably would have snapped at him. Now? Lets see.

Lamia eyed Sin. To be honest, sharing was a new concept. Back when she'd been part of a clan she'd been dominant, so when big kills were made she got first choice. After the clan her kills had been small, one and two meals worth that didn't give her cause for lingering. And she'd never hunted with another before.
Finally she shrugged. "I guess so," she replied, and wrapped her tail around herself and her section of the kill that she'd ripped off. She wasn't quite sure how she'd feel if she had to eat from the same carcass as him, but hopefully by sectioning out the meat she wouldn't have to guess.

Sin watched her body movements, approaching the kill quietly and with nothing more than a faint, lingering smirk that seemed to stay on his lips ever since he had learned how to smile. Oh, those had been the awkward days. Trying to smile for Yuki or Ixen, failing terribly. It only happened when he saw their kits. Hm, oh cliche. He was embarrassed at times of his cliche behavior. The heart of a murderer, brought back by a kits love. Ew.
He ripped off a small section to prevent any future tension. He could tell Lamia was not sure what to make of this, and was not risking either having her back off and thus him not seeing her anymore, or her becoming angry. His tail flicked as he ate, humming lightly.

Lamia went back to the carcass once she had finished her piece. This time she tore into the more blood and nutrient rich organs, such as the heart and liver. Heart was a filling meat too, and combined with the piece she'd consumed earlier she doubt she'd need to each much more. The goal was to feel satisfied, not full.
She backed off a few more steps with her organs, and watched Sin out of the corner of her eyes. He seemed relaxed enough, though anyone worth the title of warrior knew it didn't take but an instant to go from relaxed to ready to rip out a throat.
The organs were half gone, and Lamia's body language relaxed a little more. 'What next,' she wondered. Sin had offered to meet up again to hunt. We they'd hunted, successfully, and had bellies rumbling to break up badger meat. So did this mean it was time for her to slip off?

When Sin was done, which he was in short time, he turned to her, tongue brushing against his bloodied teeth. He smirked once more, moving to her side once he was sure she was done. He knew what this meant. The conditions were that she stay for a hunt. He was not ready for this little date to end, or even ever end. No, he had decided. She was his kind of girl. Strong, clever, and someone he found enjoyable.
What a selfish man he was.
Quietly, he yawned, resting his head on her shoulder, tail wrapping around the two. "Lamia," He mused lightly, ears flicking to the side once more. "I think I enjoy your company."

Lamia's eyebrow arched up gracefully. She had been about to make another comment on how touchy-feely Sin was, for someone who considered himself a killer, when he spoke.
Now Lamia would be the first to admit she had no personal experience in relationships, though she did know a lot about them in theory. There had been no one in her clan she'd been interested in, though there had been rumors of an arranged marriage; of course she'd killed her clan before that could be put into action, so she'd never got to meet the male. And as a wanderer there had never been anyone who caught her interest.
Lamia was pretty sure she got the implications of what Sin was saying though. "Oh," she quipped, tilting her head to the side a bit, towards her vacant shoulder. "I was under the impression that you might dislike my company, what with my overly inquisitive nature."
((XD I just had a horrible idea! Shame Virtue's probably taken.))

He chuckled, shaking his head at her, amused slightly. Was she joking? Perhaps. Well, she was being silly then. He didn't move his head off her shoulder, tail flicking idly. So, she hadn't flipped out, she was still here, though not looking at him. He wondered absently if he was stepping over boundaries, than again, he wasn't going to just wait forever to say how he felt.
"No, I find your presence more enjoyable than....being alone." When had he become this man? When had he accepted his feelings so easily? When? When he had realized he had a tiny, almost redundant crush on Nex he had snapped and snarled, bitterly called her a witch and trickster, a harpy he wanted to vanish.
So, why was he being so kind to Lamia?
Ha...Kind. "Unless these feelings are disgusting to you?"
(( Why? Whats this plotting- ))

"More like foreign," Lamia said. "Perhaps I didn't mention it directly, but relationships aren't something I have much personal experience in." She shrugged lightly, quite conscious of the weight and feel of Sin's head against her shoulder. "Relationships of any kind, for that matter. I've always tended to keep to myself."
Lamia kept her pitch-colored gaze trained off to the side, trying to decipher the feelings in her that were quite foreign indeed. She'd always had a thing about being touched and kept a personal bubble around her, but Sin's touch didn't bother her. Now why was that? It wasn't like she'd known him for a long time.

He raised an eyebrow at Lamia, nodding at the words. His tail flicked at the thoughts he had through his head. She was not used to this? He smirked at her, ears flicking back and deciding to go further, once more. Seriously, how much was he pushing it? He licked her cheek, a action strange for him. Oh, she must think he was the touchy type, but, only with her.
"If its so foreign," He mused, head raising for a second to look at the now pitch dark sky. "Then perhaps, Lamia, would you like to stay near me?" He questioned, looking over at her. "Travel together?" He could help this seem less foreign, if she would. Was he, yes, he was.
"As my mate?"

Lamia turned to look at Sin then. Black eyes, normally so empty, now glinted with an almost piericing intensity. "Why are you asking this? All of this?"
She turned her body out of his touch and backed up a couple of steps. Her eyes never lost their intense light, but a touch of confusion was added to her face. "Why? Why invite me to return to hunt? Why take me to some place that's precious to you? Why let me ask personal questions when we both tend to keep outsiders at arm's length."
The strangest sensation came over Lamia. It felt like a spot in her chest was squeezing and contracting, a sensation that almost felt like a physcial pain. It had been so long since she'd felt anything in that area.... She shook her head to clear her mind, then looked back at Sin.
"Why are you asking me to give you everything I am, and offering up everything you are in return?" After all that's what it was to be mates, wasn't it? To no longer walk a separate path, but find it joined with another and changed, with someone else to walk beside you. She felt that spot in her chest squeeze again.

His eyes watched her, leaning away when she began to leave him. He recognized her reaction, it had been his once. Except he had snarled and attacked the speaker, and called them a witch. Oh, how he confused himself sometimes. He let her speak, black eyes watching her every movement, and when she shook her head he didn't move to her, giving her space.
"Isn't it obvious?" He said once she calmed down. "Because you aren't like the others." He added, wondering if this was what she wanted to hear, or if truly she did not see. His tail flicked idly, eyes watching her, almost out of curiosity. "I find you enjoyable to be around, and do you know how long I've been traveling, how many people I've met? How rare it is for me to actually enjoy their company?"
He watched her face as he spoke, waiting for any reaction she had. However, he cut in the silence he had given, and decided to continue. "I may not look it, or seem it to you, but I hate touching people unless they are family I care for, yet I enjoy the brief seconds you allow me to rest my head on your shoulder and such. Also, your the only vixen, or even fox I've ever met that's convinced me to spill my emotions, such as now. I get lonely sometimes, wether or not I like to admit it, which I don't. Thing is, I'm to picky and usually bitter to accept others company."
"But I enjoy yours, as stated before. And, if someone else took you as their mate I'd probably want to kill them. Possessive, yes, but I've stated this before. I am a selfish man. If I care for something, I want it to care for only me. And I care for you." He mused, tail flicking side to side, offering her a cheshire cat grin before waiting for her response.

"You always make decisions that affect the path of a life in such short periods of time?" Lamia tilted her head a little to the side, tail flicking idley behind her. She truly was baffled by what Sin was saying, but the simple explanation for that was that she wasn't Sin; it had already been proved to her that his feelings and hers went through different processes. So what were her feelings?
Since she was waiting for an answer from Sin, Lamia took the moment to do a bit of introspection. Did she feel anything for this male? The answer to that was an obvious yes.
So what was it she felt for him? Not rage, anger, or bloodlust, or she'd have already run off or the two would have been involved in a death match by now. So a positive emotion, then. Er, what were the positive ones? Lamia blinked and had to spend a moment thinking before the answers came up. Friendship, family, love, that was it.
So, which one was it? Family was a quick rule-out, since family ties for her tended to be viewed in a negative cast besides the fact that she and Sin weren't family. So that meant she thought of him as....either a friend or a love?
She wasn't quite sure which was which, and perhaps it didn't matter in her brain, for to have love you had to have friendship as well. And maybe all of this was so confusing because it was the concept she couldn't quite wrap her mind around, not the actual feelings themselves. All she did know was that her dark, violent side accepted this male as an equal rather than a subordinate, so that had to mean something?
All these thoughts raced through her mind in the span of three seconds, and a blink brought her back to the situation. Another short thought, that perhaps she was just overthinking, crossed her mind and she banished it as well.
Lamia didn't quite know what to say to Sin just yet, so perhaps these next moments would be the critical deciding factor to her answer. She was sure he was expecting on soon, for no one who liked to walk on the dark side of life ever wanted to find themselves in such a vulernable position if it was avoidable.

He chuckled at her response, shrugging. "Life is short, isn't it?" This was not truly a question, but he doubted that Lamia did not know this. He turned to view her, standing finally. "Such a short life calls for short decisions. If one sits there and waits for a long time to decide, well, half your life is gone. Then you can not truly enjoy what you could have had while you wasted time."
He eyed her, shaking his head. "I do not choose random vixens to ask this question. I thought carefully during our separation." He eyed her, circling her slowly, tail still flicking, like a clock. "We will not know how well we work until it happens. If we just sit here wondering we will never see, and waste our life away."
