Of Monsters and Others

"I'm glad you made it out of there." Ivy sighs before finally speaking. She isn't going the route of apologizing for something that already happened, especially when she had nothing to do with it; such words would be pointless. "The world's a lot better having your smile to brighten the scene."

"As the world is all the brighter for your kindness." Yuki gave one of his said bright smiles as he talked. "Anyone can wield a sword but not many can remain kind in the face of the adversity you have to on a near daily basis." He counted himself as one of them who couldn't. Even as he acted kindly right now.

"Come on, you know that's not what I'm referring too." This is Ivy, who loves so many different kinds of people, regardless of race, gender, & everything else in-between. "It's okay if you don't wanna talk about it, but it's not gonna change how I view you. You're beautiful as you are, Yuki."

"I was made and born in a lab. For the first eight years of my life, I was experimented on alongside my siblings innorder to create soliders embued with an artificial devil power. I was rescued by one of the doctors at the cost of her life." He looked down for a moment. "Ironically the guy that ordered the experiment is my adoptive Dad's father. But Dad was disowned for not being a peice of shit. "

A few minutes later she’d hear the honk of a horn coming from the outside. It was Yusuke, on schedule within his car. (sadly had to get rid of the food truck) “I’m here..and wow yer lookin’ good. I can see why that girl of yours pretty much worships the ground ya walk on. Oh, but thanks again for helpin’ me out with this.” Now at the very least with a cute girl at his table he’d practically be invisible within the cafe.

"Hey Yusuke and pfft. I'm the one who worships at her feet." Ai chuckled before getting into the car. "But no problem at all. Especially when I'm getting dessert out of helping you. So what's the liw down on the guy?" Ai couldn't deny her curiosity for much longer.

He sets his last reply as he puts on his jacket and makes the drive toward her place. Considering where they're going..no sense he doesn't get himself a little treat while staking out.

It didn't take Ai Jian too long to get dressed. putting on one of her simpler skirts, a pair of flats and a pink t shirt she had around. Then a brown wig so she didn't have to fight with her spiky hair today. She was ready and just waited for Yusuke. While thinking of what she wanted already. Who doesn't like helping a friend and getting a sweet treat out of it?

"Very pretty~" He proceeds to dot kisses all over said face.

Hissing, fingers tap his busted lip and return blood, "Putain..." he says under his breath, tilting his head up to spot the woman a few floors above, "Nice shot, chère. Gonna have ta work fuh ya book now."

Though she'd still prepare to jump diwn after him regardless.

"At least this cult isn't some kinda doomsday one."

"Ah, a welcome change. It'd be better if there were zero cults. But a hero's luck is never that good."
