For a moment you almost consider asking the girls why they suggested that <span class="mu-r">JHAIRO</span> <span class="mu-i">HUNK</span> of all people, but your finely-honed <span class="mu-b">COMMON SENSE</span> tells you you ain’t gonna like their answers! Stupid <span class="mu-i">hunks</span>...
Look, you reply with a half-chuckle, you get where they’re coming from! Really! But when it really comes down to it you just don’t really trust the people known for wiping out demons on-sight to not, well…
“... wipe you out on-sight?”
Precisely, TT, you nod, it just seems a little… dicey, is all. Besides, you add as you stretch your shoulders a bit, if you really wanna know more about demons you <span class="mu-i">do</span> have a lifeline you haven’t had the chance to tug on yet…
Sensing who you’re speaking of, Volka’s eyes narrow into a frown. “Oh… you’re talking about that Oti guy, aren’t you…”
Problem?
“No, not really…” She replies in a voice that does, in fact, suggest a problem, “Though I have my suspicions about how amicable he was to aiding in a slave hunt.”
Salty Suutz was running the show there, you argue with traces of ‘a-ha!’ in your tone, and she didn’t have any problems with <span class="mu-i">HIM!</span>
“... because I threw him in jail, Rook.” The Skog counters, “And now that I’m comin’ down from the runner’s high, I think we might have left him to a horrible death at the hands of a deranged Shyppa…”
“Hey, live by the crime, die by the crime, am I right?” Smirks TT as she nudges Volka’s impressive side!
Doesn’t <span class="mu-i">she</span> engage in petty crimes, like, all the time, though?
“<span class="mu-i">Alleged</span>.” Deflects the Durher as she flicks her gaze skyward, “A-anyways, I’m with Ant here: smelly and rude though he may be, it couldn’t hurt to hear the mage out, right?”
“Yea… ya’ ain’t wrong…” Volka says with a begrudging nod. “At any rate, thanks for letting us know, Rook.” The unease on her face gives way to a cocky grin! “Just means I’m gonna have ta’ keep an extra close eye on ya’ from now on! Watch out~”
“And speaking of watching out,” Adds TT as Volka rises to give your hair a playful tousle that nearly twists your head off, “Watch out for places you don’t understand from now on, yea? Especially <span class="mu-i">Swoos Lounges</span>...”
Yea, yea, you grumble, you get the picture!
“Great!” Chirps the Spinner as she strums a few notes, “Then let’s get the <span class="mu-i">MONEY</span> while we’re at it, hmmm? To the Rags?”
“To the Rags!” Roars Volka as her tail triumphantly slaps the ground!
“‘Kay, not <span class="mu-i">that</span> loud…” Mutters the music-maker, still wincing at the volume, “Don’t want anyone following us, do we?”
C’mon, you scoff as you lead the gang out of the alley, who’d wanna track you to a slum?
