NO I DO NOT GO AWAY

Awww, come now, handsome. No need to be hostile. Was a simple question~

Really she doesn’t know what exactly came over her. Whether this had been to somewhat annoy, or a playful gesture, she couldn’t say, but she had done it, and now was her favorite part of really doing anything... the reaction.

The corners of her lips curled up as he spun to face her, the red that crept onto his cheeks standing out rather nicely against his pale complexion. Oh, that was amazing, and the demoness couldn’t help the chuckle that slipped past her lips, tail curling happily behind her. His stutter question had her step up beside him, hand resting on his arm as she slightly tugged him closer.

The tapping was what had her glance towards the door, ears twitching ever so slightly as the tip of her tail curled and then relaxed. Curiosity had been piqued, but was soon met with a knowing purse of her lips at the sound of the voice on the other side. She was quiet, before moving to get up from her seat, the sound of her hooves the only sound he would have heard before she opened the door, looking at him with a raised eyebrow.

Coming to the surface was always a bit disorientating, but Lucifer himself had asked them to head on up and collect a few souls that were lingering in the mortal realm. As hey hadn’t been picked up by the Angels, it appeared Heaven wasn’t all that interested in them. Yet, anyway. They needed some place to go to though, and the demoness had a feeling that as soon as the animals up there caught on that Hell was trying to claim these lost souls, that they would send someone to try and obtain them. They would have to work quickly and as quiet as they could.

Seems they were near some seaside town, if the light of the lighthouse slowly spinning up on the cliff was anything. The smell of saltwater and the fog that hung in the air was all she could smell at the moment, a shiver passing down her back. This place was a lot cooler than Hell, but the cold wasn’t what had her shaking. Something was off about this place, about this fog. Almost as if it was against them being there. Probably best to get moving.

Her tail curled close as she started along the shore, looking for just where the kid had popped up. It wasn’t like this had really been planned in the sense of sitting down and talking about it. She’d been giving a slip of paper from the Ticket Keeper, and then found herself here. There had been a small comment that she would be working with the Scorpion just before she’d been staring out at the water. So now she had to find him.

Thankfully, it seemed they hadn’t been all that far from each other, her pace speeding up a bit, hooves leaving imprints in the damp sand.
