"Turned me down? I didn't ask yet... It's quite impolite to offer your service to a woman this late at night." With a shrug, Kai rolled the window up once more, pushing the gas pedal a bit stronger. The engine roared silently, speeding up, and he barred from the narrow, dimly lit street into a wider road, illuminated by the yellow glow of the streetlights. Turning the steering wheel with one hand as he switched gears with the other one, his eyes skidded over the landscape, opening before him. Empty. There was no one around... Even drunks and the homeless seemed to be missing at this time. No wonder, taking into account the current happenings.<br/><br/>Listening cautiously to what Asmodei had to say to him, Kai let a short chuckle escape him. "Witches are almost naive at times... And only then, when you are caught like a fly in a marmalade jar and they get what they want, they reveal the B under the W and fry you alive. Never trust a witch." he shrugged, tilting his head to the side softly just as he passed through one of the cones of light, for a moment coloring his white suit with a warm mustard color. "On the other hand, humanity's a different story. Sadly, the usefulness of ninety-nine per cent of it ends at being living bombs and short-time entertainment." he sighed. "And they're so numerous that they think they can order us around. Similarly sadly, to a point, they can..." The sentence trailed off to an indistinct silence as he took a turn for one of the more expensive city districts - aiming for his house.<br/><br/>He shot a short glance at Erlind, sitting beside him, as they drove underneath more flashing lights, quietly observing the man's form. Underneath the visage he wore, almost like a Hollow's Eve mask, was the true and revealed demonic self. So no mortal guises anymore... It was better to abolish that guise. It made one's blending in easier, but who was willing to sacrifice all their skills and abilities that they could take for granted in the wake of their unhinged power for something as concealment? Shoot a man when he notices the gun you carry, rather than walk unarmed. Kai sure as hell didn't want to get caught by one of those holy freaks trapped in a bag of flesh and blood, and unable to defend himself if they tried some of their dirty tricks.<br/>Even now, if one was blessed with an affinity to the supernatural, they could see the darkness, as if oozing from his form, following him on the place of the shadow that he lacked. Sure, it was a masterful guise that he crafted for himself, even though not perfect, but it was also a great pleasure to abolish human feelings and the complications that came in the package together with them.<br/>He understood humans enough to pass as one without sharing their stupid ambitions, dreams, hopes and fears.<br/><br/>Swiping a few strands of hair, now let loose and hanging by the sides of his face like a silken curtain, out of the way, he looked at Erlind once more. "You were drinking." he spoke plainly after a moment.<br/>It was an observation, nothing more. A plain exclamation.<br/>"You can stay at my house for the morning." he offered then, shrugging slightly. "And get back to work in the morning. I have to be at the court at ten, too, anyway."
