Welcome to Gaia! ::

If my encounter with Alexander went as well as it did, better than I hoped for, surely I can face Miss Danny. Yǐn Cáng was somewhat preoccupied, telling himself that it was all going to work out, though he did not truly believe his own pep talk.

It was with a certain reluctance that he reached up and knocked on the fire demon's door. The first rap was rather timid, and after waiting a moment he forced himself to knock louder. He had to face her sooner or later, and maybe the few days that had past since he had last seen her would have helped her to cool off. If fire demons ever cooled off.

Yin had spent the time after he knocked trying to think of what he would say when she opened the door.

When she did open the door he said something rather closely akin to a high-pitched croak as his face colored into a deep crimson, rather odd for his normally green pallor. He backed away, ignoring the obvious gesture for him to go inside.

"M-m-m-m-MISS!" he finally managed to get out, though his shock had all but paralyzed his brain.

Yin cringed back as she shouted, especially when she mentioned Christmas. She has not forgotten. Of course she had not forgotten, but he honestly had not expected her to yell at him publicly about it.

"M-my apologies Miss Danny," he stammered, looking pointedly past her left horn before flicking his eyes toward the ceiling. "There appears to be a light fixture on the ceiling." It was nice looking at the ceiling, he did not have to worry about seeing Miss Danny in a towel on the ceiling. "You are in a towel," he pointed out, rather unable to focus on the situation.

Tips of his ears burning merrily he looked down at what he was wearing. Perhaps Miss Danny wanted him to find some new clothing. He had nothing else to wear, but if she insisted perhaps he could work out another deal with a gnome. "Is my clothing unacceptable? he questioned, glancing back at her.

And immediately regretted it. "Perhaps I should give you a moment to change?" he asked in a slightly strangled voice. It was higher pitched the normal, and grated a bit on his own ears, but honestly it was hard to control at the moment.

The weremantis was pleasantly surprised to see Danny in a t-shirt. Of course it rode up and he could see her mid-rift, but that was actually progress for the ghoul. He felt significantly more comfortable, and visibly relaxed.

"I was merely stopping by to check on you Miss Danny. Is everything going okay?" He did not add "since the invasion," but the thought was heavy on his mind.

Having not been verbally offered a seat the mantodae stayed standing, arms drawn up in front of his chest, limp-wristed as always. Not bad? That is rather noncommittal.

And for the ghoul in question her actions seemed a bit...lethargic? He was unsure, but something was wrong. "Is there something I can do to help you?" he questioned, concern evident in his voice. "I hope you are not suffering from any long-lasting injuries."

Rikki sounded familiar...perhaps like the reaper boil. Yes, he was certain of it. Yin's blood ran cold, what had he done? Before he realized it his lips were pulled back, baring his teeth as he thought about the boil. If he had hurt Miss Danny in any way there would be blood to pay. Miss Danny was nice, no one should treat her how he had, whatever that was. He should have taken care of him when he had had the chance. And now? If Miss Danny was damaged that was on his shoulders as well.

"Where is he?" he demanded. "I shall make him pay twice over for whatever he has done to you." It was reckless, yes, but he had made it one of his duties to protect Miss Danny.
