I’m happy that you like the idea! If you can’t get Albion to agree at coming, I will do my best to make him come. You can’t let him think that he has the chance to refuse, because if he gets that chance he will take that and sulk somewhere while getting drunk. The place…” Nera hummed and her eyes wandered to look outside a window. There was a little sad, nostalgic smile on her lips and she was quiet for a moment before continuing. “My place should be big enough for three to spend an evening, but it’s on sale so it’s rather empty. I live at SOPHE now, but I do have another place. It’s not in Tokyo so we would have to drive there… but if you like it we can go there too. Or rent a place. I should have some pictures of it… It’s just a simple hunting cabin, but there is a jacuzzi at the backyard. I like it. If you two are feeling shy you can go there together and I will go later alone. And pets are allowed there. Do you hunt Toshi? There is a lake not far from the cabin, but it’s probably frozen by then.” Nera browsed her massive amount of photos until she found one of the cabin and showed it to Toshiro. The fox demon clearly had no idea what a simple hunting cabin was so she believed this (https://cdn-fastly.hometalk.com/media/9z4548rj7qopx0nbu4f951c08daf4181c.jpg?size=720x845&nocrop=1) was it because it was presented as one to her.<br/><br/>“You are absolutely right! It makes me feel so insecure when someone is all quiet. Makes me wonder am I doing everything wrong or am I boring him. Are you loud one yourself Toshiro? I have heard that I’m too loud a couple of times. And I haven’t even broken anyone’s eardrums! Isn’t it painful when that happens? I think that I have been told that I’m too loud mostly because of a location…” It was important to be quiet on a public place, or generally at any place where someone, not involved, might walk on to. She usually did terrible job at staying quiet. The fox demon had a big smile on her face. Usually humans didn’t like to talk about these things so openly. Especially with someone they knew as shallowly as Toshiro knew her, and she knew him. But Toshiro was an odd bird.<br/><br/>“Hmm… Kanabo… Like that weapon?” The fox demon looked at the picture and then peeked at Toshiro, searching for similarities in their appearance, while she listened to the song. It wasn’t the kind of music she would listen to normally, but she did appreciate that Toshiro let her know all this and it was always great to hear, in this case literally, someone doing something with a passion. “I like her voice. It’s beautiful. Does she miss playing or performing? I have heard that performing to a crowd gives one special kind of rush.”<br/><br/>Nera believed that Toshiro was right. Unless Albion’s tastes would become wider and more accepting, the researcher would be out of count. Which made her feel bad, because it was so obvious that Toshiro really wanted them to be together… to what extent exactly, that she didn’t know. “I believe you could still rock a skirt and thigh highs” The fox demon smiled in an encouraging way. “You have long, slender legs, so they are destined to look great on you. Toshiro, you aren’t exactly trying to keep it as a secret, so I know that you buy company. Is it because you are…” horny “...in need of physical affection? I wonder is that what you want or is it something you are settling for? Do you want a real relationship, should you find someone suitable to be with?” Maybe it wasn’t her business, but she was curious to know if Toshiro just liked fucking around and he choose the easy way instead of trying to hit someone for one night company. Or was it that he wanted more, but this was everything he could get.<br/><br/>“Well… Papayos are squishy. I don’t know if the field can overload. I have to admit that I haven’t dealt much with papayos personally. The field is a spell, so he has to cast it and maintain it. Papayos are relatively slow with their movements and their bodies can be destroyed easily. I haven’t heard of them using more than one field at a time, so it’s possible that they can uphold only one field at the time. So as long as we don’t get both stuck in it, it should be fine. Wait… you are trusting I will talk around whoever is working for the shop owner? You can’t think that as a plan? I’m not nearly as persuasive for that!” The best solution was if they could somehow avoid it all. Meeting the papayo and his assumed helper. “I hope he leaves the statue in the shop, so then we just need to steal it without hurting anyone.”<br/><br/>“More guys should be like you” Nerissa said with a nod as she marked his answer on the page. Not the D, but C. She marked Toshiro’s answer with a circle and her own with a cross, over option A in this case. “Well… “ She pursed her lips and used a moment to find the right words in picking up another chocostick from the box, remembering to offer Toshiro too. “I think that guys like that are the worst. Why play such games? I want to know how things are… and in my experience, if I have to wait for an answer it’s likely I will never have it. Doesn’t matter if it is a good or a bad guy, when there is no quick response, I know I will never hear from them again. I guess that usually it just tells that we wanted different things… and once one of us got what he wanted, there is no need to stay in contact anymore.” That was pretty much how her dating worked. Nera didn’t want to fret about it.<br/><br/>“Next one. After the third date, you are still not sure you want to sleep with him. When he makes a move you, you A<em>tell him you don’t see any need to rush things when you are already having such a great time with him.</em>B<em>Say “Whoa, I really like you, but we are moving a little too fast here.”</em>C<em>Think Screw it and go for it. might as well figure out if you have chemistry.</em>Oh my… I’m supposed to wait that long…?” If there was chemistry she didn’t understand why she should wait so long. It was obvious that she would cross over option C for herself.<br/>
