"...Eh?" Yukina was dumbfounded by what Aderyn said to her about Raven. When she heard such question, it became clear to her that the female fae didn't look highly at the vampire, even regarded her as an object. It was peculiar for her to hear someone who is not considered human look at another entity not considered human with disdain or antipathy. For Yukina, it wasn't right for anyone, regardless of humanity, to look at another personality as inferior. Thus, she said to Aderyn, "Regardless of what Neo wants, I do not think that should mean that Ere-san should be treated that way." She was sincere and hopeful with her tone of speaking. The way she called Raven came from her last name.<br/><br/>"Aw boy, 'ere come tha' ol' retarded Jap moment 'gain." Neo shook his head, chuckling with an amused disappointment at his companion's personal view.<br/><br/>"After all, if I understood what they said, they say you are a dark fairy," Yukina kept answering to her. "To some humans who will not understand or not try to do so, you will be called a 'thing'. I do not think of you as a thing but a person and it would be rude to not do so, so I think Ere-san should be the same way too." The woman in kimono was smiling.<br/><br/>"An' if I keep fuckin' wit' 'er, ya' ain't gon' do nuffin," Neo snarked back at Yukina. "She's fuck me, an'way. You'll see. Addy 'ere is righ' on da dough. She wants mah dick, but not jus' now."<br/><br/>"But Neo-san, I just told you that you should not rape her," Yukina replied. "But I believe that you do not want to do so. After all, if you wanted to, you would have done so long ago. But you just have to get her permission."<br/><br/>"Indeed." Raven interjected. "And there's nothing he could do that will make me, a higher creature, throw myself willingly at a vulgar lowborn like him." She clutched her pride tightly, and it showed on her tone.<br/><br/>But Yukina suddenly said to her, "And please do not judge him as someone who is of lowly of character. We humans might be fragile and less able than other kinds, but that should not mean we are also low of character and dignity. After all, you are more able than us, so you should not mind him at all. Despite of his way of talking, he is not a threat at all to you."<br/><br/>Raven was caught off-guard by what Yukina said to him. She can't believe that she was hearing a human trust another human who she knew as vulgar, rude or even sadistic. Neo humiliated her earlier, so she really wasn't ready to see him in a greater light. She, therefore, saw her as naive. "Oh?" Raven was slightly indignant. "Did you not know that he made me beg to spare my life before him, kneeling on the ground? And kept harassing me verbally? Do you really not think that he will not, at any moment, take advantage of me? He wants my body, he admits so, and anyone knows that!"<br/><br/>"You said that he made you beg for your life. That means already had a chance to take advantage of you." Yukina kept herself calm. "If he really wants to rape you, he would have done so immediately. But he did not, did he? I have been with him for long now, alongside Rattus-san. If he wanted to, eh, violate me, he would have. But he never did so far, so I trust that he will not do so with you."<br/><br/>"If you give that same advice to any other woman on my situation, she will be insulted, quite honestly," Raven said to her. "You are treading a dangerous water with your words. You have too much hopes for this putrid personality you call as a friend. But, since you do have a point about me being able than you are, then a noble creature like me will have to endure his words, to show him I am better than that."<br/><br/>"Well," Neo began to speak up again. "Yeah, I hafta admit I like fuckin' wit' people's minds. But if t'ere wun thang, 'nd wun thang, I learned 'bout shit lik' dis, izzat they can't say ya' raped 'em if ya' had their consent. Sure, fuck tha police, so das why I dun want them watchin' mah ass all tha' damn time. But ya' do rape? Now e'erybody's gon' watch yo' ass. Shit, das worse, mang."<br/><br/>"Are you, then, admitting that everything you said was simply, shall I say, banter?" Raven asked him. "Because it didn't sound like one."<br/><br/>"'Cause you a bitch." Neo replied quickly. "An' w'en I say 'bitch' her', ya' whine a lot 'bout ya' ain't getting respect an' sheeit. Bitch, ya' earn respect!"<br/><br/>"I did, by being a greater creature." Raven boasted.<br/><br/>"It wuz given ta' you!" He pointed his finger at her, making her recoil slightly out of being surprised by the gesture. "I had ta' work to make mahself an alchemist, an' I also 'came immortal too. Even muh immortality juz' came from a crapshoot mixan' o' shit! But see, mah alchemy fished ya' into tha penthouse... so look wha' happened to ya'! Ya' got owned, bitch!"<br/><br/>Rattus overheard and observed the conversation between Neo and Raven, prompting him to say, "Neo, Miss Aelenei, your discussion is now certainly leading into a heated argument. Such can lead to infighting, and we cannot afford infighting with our associates in this case. Thus, I command that you cease all discussion immediately, and continue later on, in order to re-evaluate your positions and arguments. Now."<br/><br/>"Rattus-san is right, Neo-san," Yukina said. "We all have said our sides, right? I think that is good enough already."<br/><br/>"Fine," Neo sighed.<br/><br/>"As you wish," Raven said at the same time, feeling a sense of relief. She didn't want anymore confrontation with the blonde man.<br/><br/>Rattus, after he saw that all parties have settled down, immediately went back to continue his own talk with Islwyn. "As for the distance and relation of nations between each other in regards to this case, anything I will say can easily prove to be short-sighted or uninformed, as I have yet to know more details about this incident. Furthermore, paranormal entities are out of my areas of expertise. Thus, I can only go by what you say so far. And my impression is that, it still does have a potential to affect places further than what we know, as such I want to gather more information immediately so we can decide on the best course of action to take in order to mitigate or eliminate this anomaly as soon as possible, even post-haste."
