The corners of Crime's dark lips softened a bit as Poe was complemented.
"Craa, that is very nice of you" she said, running her hand down the smooth feathers once more before turning her beaked mask towards Licorice. head tilting to the side sharply in thought, before she reached her hand out with Poe on it,
"would you like to craaa hold him?" she asked as Poe gave Licorice a sharp look, still unfamiliar with her, and not used to his master being so comfortable around others.

Licorice squeaked in surprise at the offer, blue eyes growing wide. "A-Are you sure?" she asked nervously even as she reached out with both of her hands to take the strange creature. "I'm afraid I might hurt him..!" Poe was so small and seemed so delicate, Licorice was terrified she would touch him the wrong way and bend a feather or bruise one of his fragile bones.

Reaching an inky paw out to take one of Licorices' and silently show her how to properly hold her arm out. there was no need for two hands.
"Craa, he's tougher then he looks" she explained though a low croaky voice.
she didn't know how awkward it could be holding a bird, she was so used to it, knowing what to do and when. they were unpredictable creatures, especially to other who didn't spend all there time with a bird.
the Raven gave a sharp caw as he was moved forward and coaxed onto Licorice's arm. flapping his wings a couple of times before looking back up at Licorice, staring curiously at her, with his head jerking to either side "CAW!"

Licorice squeaked and giggled when the raven flapped his wings and made himself comfortable on her arm. She tried to mimic his noises, squawking softly at him before she reached up with her free hand to touch his head if he let her. "He's so pretty," the black and white numa repeated herself. "I never thought black could be so pretty before tonight." She had always seen herself as bland and boring just being black and white, but then she saw Crime and now Poe.

Crime wasn't really sure how to respond to a comment like that, she had never really thought much about having an opinion on the beauty of a color or anything, she shifted and moved her paw over her keyboard again, putting her Laptop into shutdown. Having showed her enough of her haunting, She had to prepare for this evening’s investigation anyway.
Glancing back over at Licorice, and Poe, who was bowing his head in an attempt to stubbornly avoid her petting him. Before cawing out loudly at Licorice, ruffling his feathers.
”He looks best in the light Craa” she admitted, knowing that his feathers were very eye catching even to her. “you Craa did not like Black before?”

Licorice looked down at the grass and meekly shook her head. "B-Black always seemed...boring before..." she reluctantly admitted. "There are so many brightly colored numas - they're all so gorgeous...and then there's me. I'm drab and boring..." She shook her head vigorously and carefully passed Poe back to Crime, stammering, "S-Sorry...didn't mean to complain..."

Crime shooks her head, almost distractedly as she continued to shut down her laptop and put her equipment away,
"I don't see the appeal to there bright colors Craa" she replied casually, head jerking to the side as she snapped the locks on her case shut, and shifted to look up at Licorice again.
"or the functionality" jerking her head to the other side and holding her hand back out, letting Poe hop back onto her hand, hopping again to face Licorice and continue to give her a long uncertain stare.
"craa. I prefer colors like that" she said gesturing to Licorice's coat "its, Craaa much more appealing"

"R-Really?" Licorice stammered. She found that hard to believe, but then again, she did not really think Crime was the type to humor another numa. Still, serious or not, it made the black and white numa giddy inside that one as beautiful as Crime thought her drab colors were appealing, and her wings quivered with glee.

Softly crowed in acknowledgement, she did indeed agree, and if she were more socially adept she might have gone into a more reissuing explanation. But she had already voiced what she thought, and therefore assumed that Licorice understood.
Snapping her case shut Crime pushed herself to her feet, head bowed as she lifted her case with her.
”craa. I have to return to my home… it’s a good idea to rest before an investigation…”

Licorice nodded and stood as well, cradling the remains of her chocolate bunny to finish it on the way to the tree she called her home. "Okay. Um...d-do you still want to meet at the rainbow tomorrow night?" she asked nervously, hoping Crime had not changed her mind. She really wanted to see Crime again.

she started to be surprised that Licorice had remembered, straiting up and turning her head to stare to her black and white friend for a moment, but then she realized... that she should not have doubted that Licorice wanted to go, at lest she seemed to show interest in this line of study. or just by being with Crime... something she was not used to.
"yes, Craa. before sundown, so I- Crr... we can have time to set everything up." she reached her other hand down to make sure she had a secure grip on the case, her wings beginning to fan out.
"I'll show you how"
Poe spread his own wings and took off into the air, to wait for Crime to join him.

Licorice nodded and beamed happily at Crime, her tail quivering with excitement. She could hardly wait. "I'll b-be there!" She watched in awe for a brief moment when Crime opened her wings, amazed at their beauty. What she would not give to have wings like that - or even wings that just worked...
With a final wave, Licorice turned and walked away, hoping her excitement would simmer down at least a little so she could rest up for the following night.
