Warning

A nano katana sounds cool, though. Or a pocket katana because yes, this is possible in the future. "This is a knife...!" But yeah, this was the idea that I had.

I am not meaning to make this OP or anything. She's without real mods. But yes, the katana being itself a pocket item would... make sense and be less complicated.

Yes. So that girl, if she had a sort of katana weapon, it would be hidden in that kind of nanopocket. I just don't know how it works since I've only seen it once.

Not what I meant. In Ghost of the shell or can't remember what. (Ultraviolet maybe?), there was a kind of virtual thing on her arm where guns and ammo were hidden.

Well, I still have my fox girl hostess? (Maid) Then I had a normal girl otherwise. I figure she probably has a weapon hidden but I wonder if cyberpunk has like... virtually hidden weapons with nanotech or the likes. Not that she'd kill anyone. It's purely out of design. And then there was Bastet which is still left in suspension for the time being. Three. Still, when I mean offers, I mean the whole idea about hedonism. it's not the kind of place you just go to drink. Unless the name is purely out of fun fashion name in the cyperpunk times, which would not be surprising. I know a lot is allowed but I figure this is cyberpunk life in general. Less laws, more freedom. More chaos with dark times of the future.

The character development part is the issue. She's not just a pretty face. I also want to make sure she wants to be there for reasons the bar offer. Or something.

I was close to think of a character but the word "hedonism" slowed me down. I don't think my idea fit the "Who would go to a bar made for the pursuit of pleasure?" I am thinking a little too hard on things like Val-halla and this doesn't seem exactly close to what I was thinking about. So I am back to the scrap board. Not sure if I'll find something.

Nall certainly was not trying to compare Jumi to Althena. His experience and relationship elsewhere were different. In fact, being used to one person only did make being together like this more special. He was not the kind to socialize often. Learning to do so was as good as an experience as any. Washing him would probably feel like washing a pet cat, wings aside. He also didn't fight it back, whether he liked the water or not. Just really enjoying some attention, at the very least, with Shinigami getting the most of it all the time these days. Meanwhile, Jumi still made an interesting comment that reminded him of something. "Althena thinks humans rely too much on gods... But even she is concerned about Lenneth.", he explained. Mitsuko was finishing Shinigami's other leg as she listened, wondering how much gods really helped if at all. Lenneth was indeed a concern and it seemed like Althena indirectly gave her the mean to save her from whatever this enemy planned to do. There were other gods, though. How many of them shared their magic with humans? Magical girls didn't all seem to rely on heavenly powers, either. There was a lot she didn't know about the secrets of magical girls or whoever stood and watched behind the scenes. How powerful demons down there probably were, fighting their wars against humans as well. "We will take care of Lenneth in time... We haven't seen her in a while and I hope it's a good thing.", the valkyrie told them. Once Mitsuko was finally done with Shinigami, she released her grasp from her body and moved closer to her to give her a kiss before she sat near her while the fairy washed Nall, "What about you, Jumi? I feel like we've been caught in so many things lately that we had not the time to talk about you... I-I mean, if you don't mind. What was your life like, before we met? Or what is your home like? I've only seen so much about you yet... Did you have your own team?", she queried with a few questions. Having joined her team, she was sure that Jumi had other friends as well, or at least at one time. Compared to her, Mitsuko was only a normal student until now, thrown in this world with a blast. Not that she could blame Nall for that.

Nall eyed Jumi then toward Mitsuko a bit. "Not the first time I get washed, if this is what you're asking. Althena used to do it all the time but here, Mitsuko did it once. Be careful with the wings.", he kindly warned her as he moved closer. Mitsuko looked toward him as she was treating Shinigami's legs still. "She is careful with her hands... You don't need to worry. I didn't think there were baths in... um... where you come from, though. This Althena, she bathes with you and washes you?", she asked curiously, making Nall proudly turns to her. "We do and she does... I see her the same way I see you.", he replied with no hesitation. Mitsuko blanked for a second. Nall probably did spend a lot of time at her side before he was sent away. "How does she look like...? Is she...", Mitsuko finally asked but soon swallowed her words, figuring that it was a dumb question. Her curiosity still made Nall proudly turn to her, staying within Jumi's range. "She IS the goddess of Love and Beauty. She is also known as a goddess of light. Being with her everyday is a blessing. Odin frightened her, though...", he said the last part with his ears down. "She guessed that he may be after her power so she sent me and the sword to you.", he explained while Shinigami listened quietly. "Can't say she chose wrong, though. You're beautiful and I'm sure Althena would like to meet you in person.", he said with a smile. The fox though smirked. "Not trying to flirt with her, are you?", she teased him. Nall flushed a bit and pouted, "I would never. I'm happy to be her guardian but nothing else.", he said to his defense, turning quiet while Mitsuko smiled a bit in embarrassment, soon focusing on the fox's paws, making sure to rub them clean properly, not without enjoying it a little as well. "Well... Thank you for saying it, Nall. If Lenneth is part of that, we'll find a way to defeat her... I'd like to meet Althena but I don't think that would be possible. I'm glad that she gave me her power, though...", she said softly, having a good time thanks to it. Her gaze also turned to Jumi, equally giving her a tender smile before she focused fully on her task, humming softly. Shinigami, otherwise, sat back and relaxed from the pleasant bath time.

Nall gasped as Jumi was answering him. Shinigami didn't help either. "I certainly don't need to know what you mean. I don't really mind either way.", he said, feeling like being there among them was still a fun experience. Surrounded by naked girls was a nice thing but if they started to be playful, he might just leave them be. Besides, he did not expect anything weird between himself and them. Being washed was natural and he was used to seeing another woman naked anyway. Still, Jumi did make it a little teasing anyway. "Fine...", he let out with a small pout as he moved closer, "Do you mind helping me wash my body and my wings? Please?", he asked the fairy as he floated around her, needing help as he couldn't do it alone. Mitsuko could only smile at the sight but focused on making sure that Shinigami's long tail was well taken care of. After she was done, was time for something a little more embarrassing as she went to the front of the fox to start on her legs, starting from the hip and thigh of one to go down. This was a part she liked to touch and her legs, while being different from a human's, was still fun to feel down, much to the pleasure of Shinigami would seemingly enjoyed it so far. "After we're done, Jumi and I will need to be washed as well... You did not need to wash yourself now and I know you like it so would you like to wash one of us?", Mitsuko asked to the vixen who looked at them, "I might. She is not getting a lot of attention..." Shinigami was referring to Jumi, who was being pestered by Nall more than anything. She could have decided to wash Mitsuko back but neglecting the fairy was not in the plans. Besides, Mitsuko had felt her more than twice already, sexually or not. This valkyrie had enjoyed plenty of the fox as it was. For now, she would let her take the time to wash every inches of her. This alone was a reward on its own or so she thought. Mitsuko seemed to agree agree. "Right. You two can have a good moment... When we're done, I'll wash myself and wait that you're done.", she said, eyeing toward where they came from, wondering if Umi really was just waiting for them. What would she think if she saw them like this? Or if she joined them.

Whether they knew or not, both could hear the other two talk but Mitsuko was busy enjoying the moment as she felt the fox calmly sitting there. The fur made it feel special, like washing a pet but almost bigger than she was herself. Since the last time she had done this, a few things had happened between them that made Mitsuko a little more daring and confident with her touching. Less hesitant to touch at places she normally would not. Her yuri dream had come true at least two or three times now... There were no reasons for her to hesitate as long as Shinigami enjoyed it. Hugging the fox form behind, Mitsuko's hands moved to her breasts to squeeze them and wash them gently, blushing but enjoying that feeling. Shinigami didn't seem bothered, letting her do her thing but Nall stared for a second, clearing fazed by the show that was more than simple nudity. "T-that's what you call worth the show? Of course, you'll like this kind of things. You girls are always so frisky...". He said, making Mitsuko smile and she hugged Shinigami. "She feels good and I'm only washing her... But yes, I like it. Jumi showed me to not be too shy between us. Only... You're the only boy. Sorry, Nall.", the valkyrie replied, a little embarrassed but that didn't stop her from continuing down the fox's body to wash her fur thoroughly. Nall was indeed the only boy and he had to deal with all of that sexual energy emanating around himself. He wasn't used to it. Jumi added to it by playfully teasing him, especially after such exchange. "F-felling dirty? I'll remind you that I'm the guardian of Althena, again. I take offense to such implications.", he replied while pouting but the reaction made Mitsuko giggle lightly, "She meant to wash your body, Nall... But you know what she meant, didn't you?", she asked while eyeing Shinigami and blushing a bit again as she was going to touch a little lower still, going softly at first and taking a moment to feel the spot. Shinigami only showed a slight reaction but what was happening might have been evident to Jumi. Nall, for himself, was focused on what he was told and he only pouted harder. "O-of course she only meant washing my body." Mitsuko took a moment to enjoy something she normally wouldn't dare. She was not seeking to pleasure but to wash. Still... she spent a bit at it before she moved away to behind the fox, switching to her back and tail, not speaking a word of what had happened. Nall was already affected by the tension going on and she didn't want to make it too awkward for him. Shinigami may still do something but if it did happen, she would just let it happen, being sure that the fox wouldn't mean harm. The washing of her tail seemed to do well to relax her, though. She kept at it while Shinigami opened her eyes to see how the two others fared. "Let her hands handle you, already. You're so small yet so loud.", she said teasingly.

Shinigami first moved to the spring, seeing it like nothing but a bath still but differently. An amazing alternative for a tub that could prove to be a good source of comfort and relaxation. With Umi seeming to stay behind, she was joined by Mitsuko, Nall and Jumi, all now practically naked, not counting the flying cat who didn't wear anything anyway. Mitsuko herself looked to be familiar with the kind of bath but so was Jumi, both slowly stepping in. Nall himself just followed and landed in the water to float in it. The vixen joined last, letting her paw feel the water first then stepped in as well. "Well, well... This is better than I thought. And I thought those humans baths were good already...", she said to the three others with a smirk. Mitsuko made sure to out the bottles on the edge of the spring, where they'd be easy to reach to. "Yes... It really is. It can get better, though. Remember what we did, at your home...?", she said, without any tease in her voice. Clearly, she was not meaning the lewdest part of what they had done and this was made evident by the valkyrie grabbing one of the shampoo bottles. "Already wanting to make this fox feels good...?", Shinigami teased a little, trying not to make it sound too awkward yet she could hardly resist. The water felt good but some hands washing her would definitely add to the unusual situation she found herself in. Humans taking care of her was not something she was really used to, considering who she was... Mitsuko still blushed and eyed Jumi but quietly moved to Shinigami, "Hush... Let's enjoy this properly...", she told the fox, as they were not at the manor this time. Just a natural spring bath where she could get another feel of her, still wondering if this was not a dream she'd wake up from. Using her shampoo, she took enough to cover a good part and started to work on Shinigami who behaved and closed her eyes, allowing the girl to wash her if she wanted to this much. Nall was only watching for a time, feeling a certain familiarity or nostalgia with the sight and softness of Mitsuko. He would soon look away to get near Jumi instead, just floating close by. "These two are going to be at it for a while...", he whined a bit, sighing.

Yeah, not pushing for it either. He's the comedic relief if anything but still. One boy surrounded by girls. (Mitsuko probably already remind him of Althena). He won't have it easy. Otherwise, I never really planned to have him do anything nsfw. He's there for Mitsuko's plotline and sfw scenes. At least, that's what I had planned for him when I brought him.

Shinigami and the others followed, heading outside together. The fox found curious that the baths were outside but did not outright questioned it. An outdoor bath, maybe? It appeared that it was found in another building dedicated to it. The room inside was a little more familiar for what she was used to. The bath could not be fully seen yet but the towels and soaps laying around gave away that it was the right place. Nice and warm, she said. It looked like the kind of thing that she was looking for. That she needed, so her body could feel good. Mitsuko didn't hesitate before she found a spot where she could undress, regardless of others being there including Nall who had seen her naked for long enough already. Shinigami then followed the example by making her clothes vanish and freeing her body from it. At the moment, she at least was not showing her extra but still didn't hide much else from their eyes. Nall could only sit around and watch for the time being but he feigned not to stare while they were undressing. If Jumi wondered what he had in mind, Shinigami found a certain amusement in it, knowing that Nall was the only boy of the group. Males were easy to charm and the fox felt like there was no doubt that he was not bothered. But he was still nothing but a winged cat to her so other than his attitude, she didn't really pay attention to him more than she had to. She was curious about the spring or rather the bath. Going to the opening, the dark vixen went to get a closer look. This sure was not anything like the bath at her home or the one at the convention, both being tubs in their kind. This one was natural and yet, gave away a nice warmth. Mitsuko, on her side, tried not to blush openly while she shyly picked a few soaps and shampoos that she thought she could use for the fox, looking at Umi. "T-thank you, I hope Shinigami will like her bath...", she said before she looked at Jumi while holding the bottles. Nall stayed close to the fairy for now but could not avoid a look to Mitsuko, seeing more than he should. He then looked away again, more or less used to see Mitsuko this closely. "Let's go to the bath." He said, taking off.

By the way, I doubt Nall would ever do anything. I believe the rules apply to animals. As in... Any forms of bestiality? (I think so, anyway.) Although that's only for images... I don't think there would be issues but I am not currently fishing for anything with him. Now, if someone provoked anything with him though, well... Whatever happens will happen.

Mitsuko felt a little teased to follow but the affection from Jumi felt lovely and inviting to simply relax. Her mind didn't really think about anything dirty but the sight of both Shinigami and Jumi were still a sight to admire, to her. "R-right, we did walk a lot. We would not want to be dirty to go in the library. Alright, then...", she concluded then slowly got up, carefully to not hurt her girlfriend then offered her hand to her so they could follow. Shinigami seemed content enough to see them come along. "Hurry up then... We have a bath to take. What about the cat?", she asked, bringing Nall to raise his head from the fish he was eating. If bathing between them was going to to go the way he was thinking, he wasn't sure if... Mitsuko herself didn't how how that would go. Would Shinigami behave if he was there? Nall was more of a pet than she was but was still alive and needed to be made clean. But whatever may happen was not important. "Right, if Nall wants to come along... He needs to be clean, too.", the valkyrie said but still looked at Nall to see if he was interested. He had eaten pretty well during the time they talked and he was ready to move on. Even if the girls did anything, he could just look away or leave. "Fine... If you wash me, you mind the wings. I am a guardian of Althena, after all.", he stated before he took off. It did not hurt to enjoy some female attention, being washed by naked girls just like a dream. He kept that quiet.

Shinigami gave one of her usual grins when Hikaru mentioned that the girls could follow her, seeming to take a pleasure in the idea of assuming that they may follow her but she was also fine with being alone. The fox didn't really think that these particular humans would be a threat to her. Umi seemed to be the one to show her the way, though. "That sounds good to me...", the fox replied as she eyed and followed Umi, looking forward to see what their bathing means were like. The manor and the convention were the only places where she really had enjoyed a bath and the latter was only because she was brought there after her mother punished her, resulting in her body being an absolute mess. The water had felt great. Mitsuko watched the fox then shifted her gaze to Jumi then back to the fox again. "W-well... We could begin the research, of course. But... Shinigami may need help. She needs a good shampoo for her fur, too.", the valkyrie said, wanting their friend to have a good bath but also, she was slightly concerned about leaving her alone, if alone she would even be. Her eyes went to Jumi, as she was still sitting there on her laps. Maybe she worried for nothing but the few days had made her fond of the fox while growing closer to the fairy as well. Shinigami was a strong girl and she would be fine and back soon. "Jumi... What do you feel like doing?", Mitsuko asked her partner, figuring she might as well ask her opinion on the matter.

Hellhound nodded to the first question but then to the next, she tried to think hard about it, almost to the point of giving herself a headache, "I don't know... But he was with bunnyman. I think they were going to spy on the convention.", she said, referring to the rabbit demon she had met in hell. Her memory was a bit foggy from back then but it was not like she cared at that moment. Whatever demons or humans did was not her problem. "Lot of enemies there, then... Okay, I'll stay away.", she said, concluding that if she could take on a village, a main base of magic humans might not be the best place to try anything funny. If they were so powerful anyway, they probably could handle that one demon... Probably...? After Akemi finally parked and explained to her the way she could choose to behave, Hellhound paused, thinking about how she could be a good girl. Being dangerous to human was not it but an "attack dog the whole community can love", sounded like a nice party of headpats and food. The thought made her tail wag a bit again. "Okay, Hellhound will be a good girl.", she promised, hoping the humans would also behave. Once finally outside the car, the smell made her instantly curious, "Ooh, food... I am hungry, now. Whatever this is, it smells good.", she said in reaction to the scent. Not even thinking of where she was or people looking at her, all she could think about was new kind of food that she might taste.

As Hellhound felt like she had done good, even getting a rewarding headpat for it, her tail started wagging gently. Perhaps she was a bit too naive or innocent on that one side of things but she was still a happy puppy. "Hellhound is Prac... teecal? Oh but I know what cute means. Cute is good. I like being cute.", she replied to Akemi. The rubbing was the best and it very noticeably calmed her. Once they were ready to leave. Just like before, the hound would sit in a way to look outside but at least her butt was not left for all to see this time. Still, very pettable if one desired to do so. Her tail slowly calmed down to become more relaxed as they continued the path to the big city. Hellhound's gaze was entirely focused on outside. In the city itself, the citizen looked like normal humans but dressed a little more modern than what she had seen in most village. The city was more active as well. Many more cars were on the streets as well, those one carrying other humans around. As they finally stopped at a stop light, having no idea why they had done so, she simply didn't question it and looked around instead, only to be surprised by that other car stopping near theirs. Being told that she looked good made her smile but the word that made her ears perk up was 'convention'. At first, she looked up in thought then tilted her head before she looked back to Akemi. "Convention! Someone talked about it... A demon said they'd go there.", she told to Akemi. Whether it was betraying a demon or not, she didn't care. Her memory was suddenly remembering the word and the place she wanted to go but was told to back off from. Magical girls including the one who had first defeated her were to be found there, at least at the time the demon left for it. She couldn't really tell how long that was ago, though. "It's the place where Hellhound wanted to go to but they told me that I can't because humans would not like me...", she said with her ears dropping, even though she knew fully well why she wanted to go. With Akemi, though, things had changed a bit. "Should we tell humans...?", she asked, if only to mess with demons, ignoring the men in the cars who talked to her, for now.

Hellhound felt some happiness to hear some appreciation from a human. It certain changed from humans being afraid of her, even though she did treat those humans like prey. Looking back outside, she did not try to hide or anything when she saw someone noticing her. A big smile back is all she offered while looking at the surrounding nature. With Akemi being with her, she trusted that it would be fine if she was with her. How humans would react to her soon or later may be different but perhaps it was going to be fine anyway. As buildings came into view, her attention was soon focused on the city part of the world. The hound had not been in a city very often, especially on peaceful terms. All of this was going to be new. After they stopped and Akemi told her to stay put, Hellhound finally sat on the seat more or less properly and nodded. It was likely best to obey and not cause her human friend troubles. Still, while she was waiting, she was able to take a look around. Not a good place to be seen, which might have been a good thing. The hound didn't want to be noticed by everyone right away, remembering what usually happened when she was noticed. Still, there wasn't much space to move in this car. All she needed to do was to be patient for a little and surely she would be rewarded in due time. A few minutes later, she spotted Akemi coming back out with what appeared to be a bunch of different clothes, all made for human shapes. "I can take anything?", she asked before she looked at the clothes, not seeing much in the larger pieces that would obstruct her movements. Still, she found some clothes that were similar to what she wore before, unfortunately not being quite the same. Those panties might fit her but they were not designed for a tail in mind. Still, would try them on, picking one of the darker ones before picking a shirt that seemingly was made for the body. The difference was that it was not torn up and after sliding inside, it even covered her breasts and a part of her stomach. Clothes that covered her legs were not needed but she had found some shorts to cover her butt, having seen humans do this before. "Hellhound is ready.", she said.

Mitsuko nodded to the temple master, "Of course... I did not plan to leave just yet but I thought I'd confirm. We have walked quite a long way to come here already.", she complained a little, feeling like her legs had walked more than she usually did, even with her unusual strength. After they were done eating, they could probably try and search the library. Shinigami's mother may appear somewhere but this was not the priority of their research. Shinigami herself may not appear anywhere but the key was to find a way to convince people of what she was or rather what she was not. Hikaru may have seen that for himself but not everyone would behave reasonably or rationally. There might be something else to find down there... Shinigami did not know what the van was exactly but otherwise, finding something that might help sounded good. After eating her final piece, the dark fox finally raised up and gave herself a last good stretch. "Alright, then... If you don't mind, I can't sit around much longer. I would guess that you must have a place where I can take a bath, do you?", she asked, figuring that she could leave them to whatever business they wanted to do, to do her own thing. After having walked for this long on her paws, a good clean up to heal and be ready for what was next felt like a good idea. Mitsuko eyed her before she looked toward Hikaru to explain, "Shinigami really likes baths...", she said briefly, not having a better explanation to offer.

Shinigami seemed to understand what this meant and she didn't intend to leave Mitsuko nor Jumi. As response for now, she only nodded considering that they were going to be safe in this place. She could relax and restore her energy further for the moment. Before she could think anything else, Nall suddenly looked excited. "Fish! Now you're talking.", he shortly spoke out before he reached for a fish for himself. Mitsuko paused but looked toward Hikaru. "Thank you for this... But also for giving a chance to Shinigami. If she really is willing to help, I promised to keep her safe and I hold on to that promise. With everything that is going on, I feel like it is what's best to do.", the valkyrie said, wanting to become stronger. The fox in question eyed everyone but otherwise didn't respond to it. She still had a certain pride not to get too excited. The food however did well to keep her busy while feeling good to her stomach. She was almost restored from Lenneth's battle, with the help of Nymphia, Mitsuko, Jumi and that Alexandrine woman. Now with these humans as well, perhaps there were more than what her mother thought, who would actually help her rather than harm her. Like humans toward demons however, she was not going to believe that all humans were going to be like this. That was something she would have to be ready for. As much as possible, perhaps it was best not to kill any foolish humans who would try and come after her. Jumi then spoke about her mother, pretty much summing up the encounters but also telling the fox about more or less what had happened between them in that 'dream'. No doubts that she wanted her soul but probably tried to play with her, knowing her. The rest summed up what punishment her mother had condemned her to for wanting to help humans out rather than kill them. "She will not come for us... She can't. I am on my own, now. Or rather, I am with them...", Shinigami said, speaking of the girls. "I think you have enemies to worry about...", she remarked, making Mitsuko nod a bit before she turned to Hikaru. "I think Jumi mentioned that you may be able to help us head back home...", the valkyrie then said.

Shinigami listened to his opinions or observations on the matter of her questions, feeling like he was figuring her out pretty easily. He saw through her hypothetical questions, stating his analysis of what she could or not have done to Mitsuko or Jumi. A part of it certainly impressed her, not that she had any intentions to deceive him or anyone there. The only power that she had offered to Jumi once left no trace behind as it was nothing but a borrowed power. Demons sounded like irritating annoyances but they would find that she is not easy to corrupt. Still, she started to understand what kind of threat the girls really were against. Different means but similar dangers of being violated or raped by manipulative enemies... After taking another bite of her food and swallowing it, she drew a smile, "I'm glad you see things for what they are, then. It will make things easier... I guess mistaking me for a demon is what made them believe that I wanted to force them under my control but I was merely enjoying myself. My mother would have preferred that I take their souls but I did not feel like it... In fact, I am here because these two were there. My mother might have taken a liking to making me her pet. Besides, I have no reasons to lie now. I am still alive thanks to them...", Shinigami said but also admitted. A demon might find shame to admit such things but the fox believed that there was a connection to these two. There was nothing to lie about. If Hikaru's power could see so much, it did make things easier. Shinigami would nod to the last part, acknowledging that she was at least trusted for the time being. Slowly, she sat a little more properly and lowered her paws back to the ground. "Put me against a demon and I will prove myself. I do not intend to stop fighting but I will not fight humans if they leave me alone. Jumi and Mitsuko have enemies to deal with and I do not intend to sit back and watch.", she told Hikari and Umi. Human cultures and beliefs aside, Shinigami still enjoyed putting up a fight. She only needed to direct her energy in the right direction. If being tested would help toward that goal then she didn't see anything wrong in speaking out about it.

Shinigami figured that the language would not ring any bells for humans. She had gone far enough that she would not back out. "It's the name for Death. The one who reaps souls. In the same way, my name is ነⶴጎክጎፏልጮጎ or, in a way you can understand, Shinigami. I believe that this name has a similar meaning to you humans...", she said, feeling that Mitsuko and possibly Jumi knew. Whether it was or not intended, she was the signed fox of death, daughter of Death itself, or so she claimed. Created by Death, in its irony of giving life to a bringer of death. She didn't know if she could trust Hikaru but what could she lose now except the life that animated her? Her mother was not a being of high relevance to them, anyway... Keeping her position and paws raised in comfort, Shinigami ate what food she had before she leaned in to grab another piece. "But back to what I am, isn't it? As alive as you are, I presume. I can fight with magic but so can you. Our differences of powers, though, you will have to find out on your own. Otherwise, how different I am from you is what you see in front of you.", the fox said while moving her toes, her ears and her tail, being oddly cute to Mitsuko for a short moment. Playful, certainly, but such was the nature of Shinigami anyway. "So the question really is... Can you trust me not to kill you all? Am I a threat?", she asked with a certain amusement, imagining that this was the outstanding question on everyone's mind. Eating her food, Shinigami behaved in a way that was mostly calm and not threatening, even stretching herself slowly. The racial difference still proved to be an issue, if she took what Jumi had said at face value. Everyone feared her because she was different. The fox certainly had her history with being a threat of sort but she had put that behind her. Being among humans as a friend was a new concept to her but it was not one that sounded impossible. Mitsuko, Jumi, Nymphia and even this Alexandrine... All had treated her rather well or had helped her somehow. This approach of enjoying things with them was something that she could get used to. Maybe even fighting demons and common enemies would sound good.

Nall looked pleased with the answer, looking forward to having some of his favorite food. Best was not to eat too much before getting that so he would wait for now. At least Mitsuko calmed down, as the situation looked friendly so far. They were well received as guessed and nobody batted an eye over Shinigami making herself comfortable. Perhaps she worried for nothing. The conversation seemed to turn around Shinigami for the most now and, like Jumi, she trusted her to not be hostile toward them. It was best for her to eat and not say anything for the moment. Surely, the vixen was more than capable of answering questions on her own, without their help. Unless, of course, she needed it. Hopefully, she would ask then. Shinigami, for now, still looked surprised to see Hikaru figure or try to figure her out. He did not say anything vague to the possibility of her being a demon; He could see that she was not one. This alone drew a gentle grin on her face, simply feeling amused over trying to trick anyone about what she may be. "So you see... Good, then. We will be saving time.", she replied, finally taking a piece of food while staying in this position for now. Whoever this man was, something about him picked her curiosity. He was not like the rest of humans but she could not really guess what was not normal about him. Maybe that could help toward a mutual understanding, if at least between her and him. It was not all but it was something. Not being labelled a monster or a guardian, whatever that was, pleased her as well. She was a beast for sure but she didn't see herself as a monster which, to Shinigami, was more like demon creatures or whatever tentacle beast like the one that had raped her. The next question however was pretty interesting but made her show a certain hesitation for a couple of seconds. If she didn't reveal who she was now, could she be trusted? But if she did, would they be afraid of her? Something about him, though... Her gaze had drifted away but soon returned to him, "I'm the daughter of ጋቹልፕⶴ, or her creation if you will. But right now? A mortal fox left to die among humans for being too friendly with them.", she said honestly. Shinigami was born to serve but her interest in enjoying some good time and not make use of the relics more pushed her mother to not be pleased with her. What she was exactly, she did not know but a fox was the word that defined her best. She could bleed, she could die and she also suffered the same weaknesses as any other mortals, including the possibility of being raped. Being a futa was both a gift and a curse for pleasure and sexual assault, though. On a more basic side of her existence, she also proved that she needed to feed as she was eating a piece of the food that was offered to them. She also required sleep, like any other living creature. Born to be a goddess but she had chosen to do things a bit differently.
