Chiyako

The boy was still trying to conceal the truth. It was fine. She did the same herself. Emi understood. Unless he meant about the uniform? Wait, that was probably it, huh? Although work uniform was confusing, confusing enough that her head tilted slightly. Alexandrine had said that they were a fan. At his question she nodded, face brightening further still at the compliment. She wasn't used to those. Heck, she doubted that she ever would be used to them. "Y-yes. I am." She glanced back towards Alexandrine, and then towards the boy again. The little bunny scooted closer, perhaps uncomfortably so, and whispered. "We know you are a boy, I mean. Um, we already knew the other thing. It's okay though. T-to be yourself, I mean." A hand pointed up towards her ears. She turned her body a bit, stuck out her rump to show off her tail which, in the moment, wiggled. Of course it wasn't so fluffy now that it was drenched, but it was a tail none the less! Then she straightened out again. It was all just to get her point across. Everyone had something they hid and things which they maybe didn't need to hide. This is what she meant, right? Is this the right thing to do? Oh. Wait. "My name is Emi."

I'm fine with it going as far as, well, anything really! Whatever comes natural is how I try to play it. Whether it just be curious groping, or the two getting fully into things, or a wacky threesome, or foursome if other people ended up interrupting, or even nothing at all. Same goes with just about any interaction, for future reference!

Had she been warming up to others? Maybe. Perhaps Alexandrine and Hikaru had opened up some path for her which before had seemed impossible. But she was also hoping to try new things. They had worked today thus far. It was a lucky day and she wished to take advantage of that. Also she had someone here to back her up, just in case things got bad. If she was alone? This would have never happened. There would be no consideration for such a bold plan. Wait. A boy?!? Emi peeked around the woman again towards the girl. Or, rather, towards the boy. That also would explain their physique. How had the woman even caught on to that? Perhaps Emi had a lot more to learn than she'd thought. A boy. I would be naked in front of a boy. He looks my age too. What hit her was a strange mix of feelings. Embarrassment, certainly. Confusion. Curiosity. But also something unexplained. A heat which seemed to spread across her body, albeit with some focus between her loins. It was similar to when she touched herself, or was touched by others. Of course Alexandrine's words helped to calm her somewhat. A boy who thought of themselves as a girl. Someone with a life more difficult than others, who desired their privacy. Maybe it would be rude to approach them. But it could also help if she approached them? Heck, she might make a friend, and friends were a rarity for her. She could maybe consider Alexandrine a friend. Maybe. At least a friendly stranger who had the possibility of being a friend. She had to start somewhere, right? With a quick nod of her head and filled with a renewed confidence the little bunny quietly stepped around the woman and made her way over. Fists clenched at her sides. Every step closer she took caused her face to brighten from pink to red. She didn't even really know what she was going to say! Perhaps this was a terrible idea. Her heart was racing fast and hard enough that she could barely hear anything else around her. What do I say? I should have thought about that first! When she neared the boy Emi softly cleared her throat, not so much to get his attention but more because she felt the need to do so. "U-um. Hello" she spoke, voice soft but also clearly nervous. "You don't have to h-hide. We know. It's okay." Words somewhat for him, perhaps, but also for her. Heck, she didn't even bother with covering herself. This was all for the sake of being more open, being more comfortable with other people. A big leap, sure, but she actually had support for once and she wasn't about to miss the opportunity that provided.

Cleaning herself really didn't take very long once she'd armed herself with soap. Rinsing only took a minute. Alexandrine seemed fine with sticking around until the other girl was finished. It was a good idea, and one which she agreed to with a single nod of her head. It meant she could spend more time under the water. Also more time looking at the other two. A thought occurred to her while she relaxed. Her gaze lifted to meet the woman's for a moment, and then she peeked around her again at the girl, whispering softly. "Do you think people would be less scared if they saw me like this?" That was, after all, the main issue with her. People being afraid of what she was, at least once they knew. But then if they saw her as she was before knowing what she was would it make things better? Or worse? They could think it deceit, I guess. Her face reddened again at the thought. "Do you think it is something to try? A single fan might be the best way to approach it, right?"

Hands trailed down along her naked form, fingers pressing to wipe away any grime which had settled in. The only thing she still wore was her collar pendant. That she only ever briefly removed to wash her neck. Her lifeline to her power. The last time she'd bathed without it had been a very close call. For a few moments it was removed here too, the skin beneath scrubbed, as was the pendant itself. It was then that she remembered that she'd left her soap in her bag. Eyes opened and ears lifted. Someone else had entered. She poked her head out from behind Alexandrine to look. It was the girl they'd seen earlier. Their figure was not exactly what she'd expected. It seemed less feminine. But perhaps they were just one of those athletic sorts? It made sense then why they would be here at the gym, even if they were dressed sort of weird for it. "I'll be right back" she whispered, one arm pressed across her chest while her other hand dipped between her legs. With face reddening she hurried back out into the locker room, shivering somewhat when she'd finally made it. It wasn't just the chilled air that got to her. No, making contact with her chest or her crotch always gave her strange feelings. Of course she assumed they were related to the sort of sexual things she'd witnessed and had been subject to herself, but she also felt that she was perhaps a bit more sensitive than she should have been. It's probably my Demon blood, right? Emi bit her lip, glancing towards the door to the shower. Her entire body trembled as a single finger danced across the curve of her slit, now a faint tinged with pink. This too was sometimes a danger of her showering: she just took too long at times indulging in this sort of thing. But here she had to remember that she was not alone. If she spent too much time Alexandrine would surely grow worried, if not at least curious. The other girl might finish too and see her. So, for now, she skipped that part. Decided that she could do it later eventually. Her soap was retrieved from her bag and, covering herself again, Emi darted back into the showers and over to the corner. With her cover restored she began to lather her body and her hair. When that was done she moved on to rinsing off. This part, being the most vulnerable for her besides the relief of her feelings, was handled swiftly. Of course the presence of the others slowed her, and she often found herself awkwardly stealing glances at both.

Without even noticing it Emi's tail had started to wiggle slightly. Alexandrine's form was the sort she hoped to have someday. Strong. A powerful figure. Pretty. And, of course, some proper curves. It took some willpower to look away, and as her attention was turned she felt one of the woman's hands take her own. In that instant her ears stuck straight up and her face brightened further still! She followed without any resistance, and by the time she had arrived her ears had already returned to their normally floppy state. Her attention was focused towards the shower's controls, hands fiddling with the knob. An initial blast of chilled water caused her to jump slightly, but it was also perhaps necessary to help calm her down. Once the hot water finally arrived she began the swift process of scrubbing away the day to day accumulation of sweat and dirt from her body. It was also a moment for her to relax. She actually loved the water, whether it be showering or bathing or swimming. Having someone to watch her back was also a luxury she never really got to enjoy. For once she could actually let her guard down, and so she did just that. Eyes closed and face lifted, allowing the soothing water to hit her, to drown out all other sounds. There were no thoughts. No worries. Sure, her face retained a permanent tinge of pink but in the moment she was far less bothered by her own embarrassment, or the strange feelings she received whenever she saw someone else naked. Heck, in this small slice of heaven, this peaceful state, she probably wouldn't even care if the other girl walked in and saw her. It was just her and the woman she had finally decided to trust fully.

The hood of her cloak twitched. What she caught was a warning. Alexandrine had the right idea. Perhaps they might even enjoy some privacy within the open showers? And, as she had suspected, the girl was just a fan. Clearly this woman could tell the difference better than she could. Perhaps if she'd gotten real close and sniffed the figure she might have been able to make that determination herself, but that was just a weird sort of thing to do to people. Pink covered her face by the time it was revealed again, hood pulled down while she nodded once in the woman's direction. This was it. She was really undressing in front of other people. A girl, perhaps even a second if the one outside decided to join, but still! The feelings she seemed to experience were the same she'd experienced in front of men. "Okay." With a tug her cloak was removed and tossed into one of the lockers. Beneath it she wore the one outfit she actually owned: a white dress with red trim, along with a red hat. Both were frayed in places, patched up, torn, and stained. She did her best to keep them clean and intact but, well, it was impossible with the conditions she lived in. The hat was removed and gently set within the locker atop her cloak. Fingers worked on the single button of her outfit, loosening the front and, more importantly, the opening for her head. After a moment of hesitation her dress was pulled up and over her head, neatly folded, and gingerly placed within the same locker. Beneath the white dress she wore very little. A pair of frilly black panties and the thigh holsters she wore on each leg, both packed with a couple of thin pistol magazines and a small handgun. These were unclipped from her thighs and set within the locker. Thumbs slipped into the waistband of her undergarments, and in one smooth motion she pushed them down and stepped out from the fabric, neatly folding them up to join the rest of her clothes in the locker. Her body was remarkably pale and smooth, and one might be surprised to find her completely unblemished. It wasn't that she hadn't sustained injuries in the past. She had. However her Demon blood had apparently done well to heal those wounds. Emi's breasts were quite small, as one might expect. Really they were only slight lumps of developing fat. Her nipples were a soft pink, nearly blending in with the rest of her porcelain form. All over her skin was smooth and apparently devoid of hair, including her crotch. Not only did she appear to have a pair of floppy bunny ears but she also had a large fluffy bunny tail set just above her rump. Overall her build was petite and slim, albeit with slightly wider hips and thighs which were a hint more fleshed out, resulting in a bit of a gap between said thighs. It's okay. We're all girls here. Just girls taking a shower. Nothing else. The thoughts didn't stop her face from reddening, or her blue orbs from stealing glances of the woman undressing beside her.

As she slid out from the vehicle Emi shoved her hood back up. Normal people might have mistaken the bunny ears as fake if she was lucky, but it was just better not to take that chance. As for Alexandrine, well, she had already figured that the woman wouldn't judge her. That wasn't the issue she had. No, the issue she had was something she just could not explain because it was something she didn't even fully understand herself. When they entered the gym her blue eyes darted about, taking in just who was present. A couple of men working out. Not a problem now, but if they used the men's room then they would surely enter. Heck, one time she had men entering the women's locker room. That had been because they'd spotted her entering, cloak and all, and had been expecting to indulge themselves without witnesses present. It hadn't ended pretty for them, but it had also left her feeling things she didn't quite understand. Much like the situation with Alexandrine. There was also a girl. A girl dressed in what appeared to be the outfit of a magical girl. Emi didn't really sense anything from them, but perhaps they were able to hide it? Regardless this too was a problem. She was already looking to enter the showers. Risk showering and men walking in, or risk showering and having a girl walk in. But she looks to be a fan of magical girls too. If she sees us maybe we can get her to leave us be. But if she actually is one then, well, that might end bad. Emi walked on past the girl and into the locker room. With her dark frayed cloak perhaps the girl would get spooked, and perhaps she wouldn't even join in the first place. Or she might simply grow more curious. It was hard to tell, but right now she just had to weigh the disadvantages of both scenarios. This one just seemed right to her. Better to risk running into a fan than to start something unintentional with a couple of men.

Alexandrine was probably the nicest person she'd met in years. Not only did she offer to keep an eye out for what was still mostly a stranger, but she even offered to shower with her to avoid anybody else interrupting! She truly was one of those classic magical girls, one of the ones who would do most anything to save a person's life. It was definitely good that she hadn't pulled her gun on the woman, not just because she'd risk taking out such a shining light in the world, but also because the woman most likely would have defeated her. Of course even despite that showering with someone else was, well, a lot. Try as she might to not show how nervous she might be Emi's face betrayed her none the less. While her expression was neutral and her head nodded once in approval pink covered her otherwise porcelain white face. Someone else was going to see her naked, and for some reason it didn't matter to her that they were a girl. On top of that she was going to see Alexandrine naked! It doesn't really help that she's pretty. Well, maybe this is for the best. I'm sure a proper magical girl needs to get used to this stuff, right? Even if she were a boy? What if we end up staying with a knight? Besides, it's just a shower.

With a single nod the bunny climbed up front within the van, settling into the same seat she'd used before. She was going to take her? It would mean sneaking in a different way. Keeping her disguise on. That should work. But then she wondered if that meant the girl would be in the showers with her. Pink rushed to her cheeks for a moment. Being seen was one thing. Seeing others was another. Both easily brought her to a flustered state, something she'd noticed happening more recently. But thankfully it passed quickly enough. "If the girl's side is occupied I try to use the boy's side. I usually only go very late." When she was settled in Emi again gripped upon the closest handle. At least today wasn't boring!

Emi's curiosity would have to be sated later. That and other things, like gathering more food or money. Especially money. If she stole money she could assist with purchasing proper living accommodations! Why leave it all up to Alexandrine, after all. And if she had a place to stay then the woman could stay there too if need be. No, there was the question of bathing. "Gym." It really was a very simple solution. "Late night. Even the ones open all night can get empty. I use those when I can." Of course they weren't always empty. Sometimes she had to use the men's showers when a woman was around. But it generally worked out fine. And then some gyms were actually closed when it got late enough, but those sometimes just didn't have showers. A bath would have been nice, of course, but gyms didn't really have those unless one counted the whirlpool baths.

I don't mind! Could be fun.

Could be if nobody else does, yeah.

Also if Emi does end up going to the gym to shower it could set up for something happening there for anyone. Depends on how that goes, whether or not she needs to do that or not.

As the van was mentioned Emi's attention turned towards it. Using it as a mobile base was smart, especially if they just shared a bed. Sure, it might be a little weird if a knight joined too but it wouldn't be too terrible either, right? It's not as if they were all going to be naked or having sex or anything crazy like that! Although I suppose it could have happened. Would mom have done that? What was proposed was not something she'd been expecting. An offer to live within the van for the short term! It actually wasn't a bad idea if she was planning on helping Alexandrine out. This way she could be right there if something came up. Also she could keep her original home as something of a backup base! And it wasn't like she needed much either. Really just the clothes on her back. "I would be grateful for that. I am used to living with very little. I don't need too much to be comfortable." Still a shower at the gym though.

Once again I'm not too picky! Also although I didn't mark tentacles since they aren't a favorite of mine, if it happens to Emi that's fine.

So it really was like the swordsman flicks she had seen. Arranged marriages. Few probably still practiced that, but then she thought that the arranged marriages were generally between nobles, not random girls found in the street. It only really meant that she was still far too ignorant about the world she'd been trying to operate within. Then again her mother generally only talked about the good parts whenever Emi had asked about them. Those memories that gave her comfort. Nostalgia. She couldn't really be blamed for it either given what their day to day was like. To her it felt like she'd wasted their time. It would have been easier to simply say 'no' from the start, but she had been unsure. Still, she wasn't going to argue it. That would have definitely been a waste of time. Her gaze lifted to the woman as she continued. She had a pretty good idea. If she fought alongside other magical girls and knights then perhaps she would eventually be treated like one. Maybe people would stop hunting her. There were at least two people she felt as though she'd be willing to trust, provided they actually operated together. She is lucky. Father didn't get to her like that. But someone else might have? A hand reached out, gently patting against the woman's arm. An offer of trust, in a way, but more so of comfort. She was too short to pat the woman's head and, well, she didn't really know that much about comforting others, only that physical contact was often the best method for it. "You are really kind. I think. . .maybe I can trust you. And maybe even Mister Hikaru." Maybe. "I think you have a good idea too." Moving would make it more difficult. She couldn't move then. It would be a lot more risky but perhaps this is what she needed to do all along. Just dig in and resist anyone who might come for her. Do the work. Help people. "I won't leave. If you want then I will help you fight." Oh how close she was to being broken. Still was, of course, but now she actually had at least one positive thing going for her! Well, actually, a few. It was more than she'd had in a very long time. Although she was still going to need to sneak in to the gym to take a shower. At least it was usually safe there.

The offer remained. Would she take it up after some thought? Probably not. But it was a kindness none the less. She wouldn't forget about it. Perhaps the two of them really could be trusted? When Hikaru stood she sat up, nodding once in the man's direction. I hope he finds someone capable of giving him what he wants. Only once he had departed did she finally stand to her feet and turn, following Alexandrine out. He and his family were tied to their traditions. It was understandable. She didn't hate them for it, but it didn't mean that she was ready to give herself over to it either. Of course she had to agree that it certainly was an easy solution to her problem. Well, easy in certain ways, not so much in others. "Thank you. I'm sorry for wasting your time too." She had to decide whether she was skipping town or relocating to a new area within it. Steal something to bring her data with her. But then did she even really need most of it now? Her father was dead, after all. There was no need to hunt for him. Other monsters, sure, but she could start over fresh again on that if need be. Then again it might be good to have something like that regardless. Also a shower would be nice. I wonder what it might have been like here.

For Hikaru she was clear to leave. No, none of this had been set up. Probably. He hadn't known about her, he was simply a kind older gentleman searching for a wife. It didn't even have to be her. A chance meeting set up by Alexandrine in her attempt to assist them both. That was probably all it was, and that at least allowed her to relax somewhat. He hoped to know what could be done to make the offer more appealing. The question made her feel weird, as though it were some negotiation for her giving herself over to him, even though she knew it wasn't like that. But then everyone she'd ever really met before who wasn't her mother had been sort of like that. Could she be blamed for feeling that here too? The least she could do here was consider his offer. His question. When she took the time to think about it Hikaru was already being very fair. Come and go as she pleased. Enjoy her life here with him and whoever else decided to live here. Would it be an open arrangement? Clearly he only really desired her for her ability to procreate. Fair and honest. But having children was a big issue for her, even bigger than offering her body, and that would be the main reason why they would be getting married. It wasn't simply a matter of protecting some future child from the life she had endured. No, there were selfish aspects to it as well. She hadn't had the chance to really live her life, to enjoy it, to be with people she loved. Having a child meant having to care for another, to give up a lot of things for another. It also meant being confident that she could in fact care for another creature like that. She could spend all day considering what things might make it work, but the truth of it was that she just didn't feel ready for that responsibility. Already she had wasted enough of the man's time by coming here. It didn't feel fair to him. "I'm sorry" the rabbit finally spoke, briefly in a whisper although raising quickly to at least be heard, head lowering like she'd seen in movies before, albeit with a pair of fluffy bunny ears to further conceal her face. "I just don't think that I am ready for that. For children. I don't know if I ever will be. It would be rude to waste your time any further. Thank you for seeing me. For offering me what you have offered. But I would not be able to provide what it is you would seek from me."

The little Luanari's head nodded slowly a couple of times. He had a fair point. Sort of. Sure, things which were fun were easier to do. Humans, who apparently did it a bunch, would find it therefore much easier to rapidly replenish their population if the act was, in fact, exciting to perform. But efficiency meant more could be produced over all, did it not? They could stand to be more efficient! But if it really was very enjoyable then, well, it couldn't really hurt to find out, right? It's not as though it were addicting or anything. Another nod in response to his question. She needed to learn! It was part of her assignment, after all. Learn whatever she could about them. Teach whatever wasn't secret knowledge, or at least as much as she needed to complete her mission. Nothing was really off limits for her collection of Human knowledge. "Evee learn eneetheeng. Eevreetheeng." Not all at once, of course. That certainly wasn't expected of her! But, well, as much as she could at any given time, provided she had the time to do so. It was a special assignment and she wasn't about to fail her people! It was then that, thanks to her horns, she detected a slight change in the man's temperature. More specifically a shift lower. Then there were the little movements he made. Was he growing ill? No. Whatever it was, something was happening. Maybe it was related to sex? Or maybe this was part of what a Human experienced when they became flustered. That was the most likely answer. Then came the offer. He could show her! Which part? Well who could say. A lot had been muddled together. But anything she could learn was good, even if she might need to reciprocate with something just as embarrassing! And, better still, she didn't even need to work up the courage to ask! Xyvee's smile widened and her head nodded, albeit more excitedly this time. Even her tail had started to emerge again, wagging softly behind her at the idea. "Eeve want learn."

Emi winced, tensed up as a question she hadn't asked was answered. Was this his power? Could have already transformed? Or was she just that obvious? It was hard to tell. She didn't have much experience around other people. In his eyes her mother had simply gone missing. He hadn't known about what had happened to her. It was something potentially common in their line of work. Would the same thing happen to her? It already almost had a few times. She had experienced a few things she should not have needed to. Perhaps not as far as her mother had, but close. Being a magical girl was a terrifying experience. Terrifying, but necessary. Maybe another girl or another boy was forcing her to be quiet? Or chased her off? Maybe it was Zorn. Or some other monster. He could be lying too. I don't know, but I don't have my father to hunt anymore either. Maybe I should look into that. Could the blood of a Demon already reside within this man's lineage? Certainly. But more wouldn't help if that were the case, right? Would her children not have to suffer through the same things she had? But then maybe the circumstances were different. Maybe he just had more influence, and money, and power. He had the second at the very least, and that went far even within their circles. It was hard to do this sort of thing without being paid for it, after all. A tinge of pink befell her otherwise pale face when the man mentioned sharing nights with him, causing her to shift uncomfortably in her seated position. Being by somebody else's side was fine. Helping others. Growing close to people. Fighting against monsters. She could do all of that easily enough. Being married to someone however was a huge commitment. And sleeping with someone? Well, that was a big ask. It wasn't as though she was completely new to sex. Some had tried to force it upon her. Others had forced it upon her mother. Her mother had sold herself willingly just to put food in their mouths on multiple occasions. But willingly sitting with someone and actually going completely through with it? Was she actually ready for that? And what would her mother think? She had sacrificed herself so many times just to keep Emi from having to do the same. Wasn't this just the same? Would it not be tarnishing her mother's sacrifice? Was it worth more than simply living as she was already? Her gaze briefly darted towards Alexandrine. When they had met and first spoken it had been made clear to her that she couldn't simply let Emi go. Not that Emi could blame her for it either. She stole, she got into fights with magical girls and knights who hunted her, she was a risk to some extent, and after all she still did carry the blood of a Demon. No, even Emi wouldn't trust herself being out there if she were in their shoes. Maybe this man wouldn't stop her from leaving, but would Alexandrine? She needed more time to consider her options. Might as well get it out of the way. "What happens if I say no?" A dream of fancy weddings and romance was something which had eluded Emi for as long as she could remember. It simply wasn't something she imagined ever being allowed for her. That wasn't an issue. The issue was being forced into doing this sort of thing, of being locked to someone she didn't know. Or perhaps that was the secret part of her that actually desired something with more romance? She didn't really know. All of this was just confusing. Trade freedom and a few nights of her body, her dignity, and everything her mother had tried to protect in exchange for comforts which had long eluded her, for pleasant experiences and peace, perhaps even for a chance to become a magical girl who wasn't simply hunted down. What would mom choose?

Emi's eyes widened and, for a moment, her ears lifted. He had known her mother. Fought alongside her against her father. She wondered if Alexandrine had done the same or if, perhaps, her mother was from a group prior. But he had known her mother. Fingers tightened against the fabric of her cloak. She was curious, of course. Curious about what it was like, about what her mother was like when she still had a life and a future. What her father was like. But more than the curiosity was the feeling of pain. Perhaps even anger. He had known her and yet he hadn't been there to help her? She bit her tongue, kept her words to herself in that moment. There had to be a good reason for it, right? Any number of reasons. She wondered if her mother was ever put into the same position she was in now. Was she also from an old family? Would it matter for her now? Indeed, he did seem much older than she was. Not old enough that he couldn't be with someone, but she felt like the difference was enough to be at the very least concerning. But then she also remembered seeing this sort of thing in some of the old samurai flicks she'd picked up through other people's windows. Something which was probably more common in the past. A tradition focused family would undoubtedly continue that sort of practice. "Why would you accept me as a bride? Any children we might bear would likely contain the blood of a monster." Shoulders slumped slightly, as did her ears. "We were chased from our home and we had nobody to help us. What would make this any different? Why put this life on the shoulders of another?" Emi tensed slightly, bit her tongue again. She had to behave here. No outbursts, not that she liked them anyways as they only drew attention to her, and she really did not care for that sort of thing.

Xyvee smiled, proud of not just herself for explaining things correctly but of her people as a whole! The fact that it was fascinating meant it was probably much different, right? Of course her face remained a healthy bright shade of pink as the entire subject they were on was, well, quite embarrassing to discuss. Still, it was important! And it was one she was maybe secretly a little excited about. Not that she wasn't excited about other things too! It wasn't just sex! Speaking of which, the next question was exactly about that! She raised a finger, much like a teacher might when they needed to catch the attention of a particularly absent minded student, and for a moment she wondered if Humans did the same thing. "Moost? No. Hoetha foor cheeld. Soom foor foon. Mooch foo. Fee? Few? Few." Indeed, very few of their people actually participated in such things for their amusement. They were the strange ones! Xyvee definitely wasn't one of those sorts. Nope! In fact she'd never done anything of the sort before! And sure, she was very curious about how Humans did it, and what it might even be like, but that was a totally different thing and not at all weird! It was for science! To explore! For the entirety of the Luanari species! Golden orbs followed the man's hand from his crotch, head tilting just a slight bit while she processed his next words within her mind. They were, in fact, similar! Except they moved a lot more. In fact they had different positions! Some were even believed to make breeding more likely! Now that alone was worth exploring! If she could bring back a new more efficient position then that could do a lot towards helping the Luanari people! But for whatever reason Humans also just did it to enjoy themselves. Were they a whole race of weirdos?!? For fun? To feel good? What? Her gaze dropped to the floor, to where she imagined the captain would be laying down. It was a weird visual. His head on a Luanari body. It wasn't as if she knew what the rest of him looked like. Her hips wiggled in little circles, body still having been sat up on her knees. Moving really was less efficient. More tiring. She wondered why they might need to do so. "Is foon? Feel good?" she questioned, her voice a soft mumble directed more towards herself. In fact, if she was understanding this correctly, Humans appeared to actually do stuff before they mated! They used hands and even their mouths. It was all very confusing and yet, also, somewhat enticing. Her gaze finally lifted to Draven again as she stood up, hands brushing against her knees before she straightened herself up. "How?" she decided to ask rather pointedly. "Wee? Is uneefeesheent." Anatomy. He didn't know the anatomy of her people and she didn't really know the anatomy of a Human. She shook her head. Of course a thought came to mind. There was a very easy way to learn. But it was far too embarrassing for her to ever suggest, as her face would make crystal clear in the moment. "Ees theeng Evee need learn." And maybe teach!

So far all matchings with Emi seem fun to me! And all the matchings between everyone else! Three and more way options weren't present so. . .

The bunny tensed slightly as a hand settled upon the hood of her cloak. Then she relaxed. Much of it was blocked by the hood and her hat, and even partially by her ears, but it still brought back feelings she hadn't experienced in a very long time. Feelings of comfort, and peace, and love. Their sudden appearance made her feel even more on edge, for they had been used against her before. Still, she could not help but to relax from it either, at least not once the initial shock wore off. Perhaps this woman didn't know. Didn't know that she had killed someone. She wasn't herself when she did, and she certainly hadn't started things, but she had the capacity to do so within her never the less. A true monster, just as her father had been. Would she be acting differently had she known? Entering the next room had Emi stopping for a moment, pausing to take in the enormity of the space. There were pillars. Paintings. It looked more like what she saw in a museum. And then sat the man they had come here to meet. He was gowned in attire befitting someone of noble birth, and yet he sat without a chair. That was a little strange to her. She followed Alexandrine forward, more cautious now that they were in the presence of another. Emi came to a stop when the woman did, remained quiet as she was addressed. Then the man's attention focused upon her. An introduction. A request to sit, to speak, to decide upon whether or not they were going to be married. It was all a bit quick for her liking, but she had come here to at least hear him out. Both were taking a chance on her just as much as she was on them. Perhaps it was only fair then that she be a little more open with them both, especially given their past with her family. Emi settled down, seated upon her knees. Sitting with legs crossed made it more difficult to flee at a moment's notice. From her knees she could actually get an explosive start, should it be needed. Just like with a rabbit her legs were far stronger than her arms. But then their arms were just front legs, were they not? Focusing away from her wandering thoughts Emi reached up to grip at her hood, tugging it down to finally and fully reveal her face, and her red hat, and most importantly the long white fluffy bunny ears. Certainly not a serious revelation for anyone who didn't know about the existence of Demons, and even generally not too off-putting for many of their kind. Too cute really for most to take seriously. It had been to her advantage more than once, but also occasionally a disadvantage, and especially so for anyone who actually knew how dangerous Demons were. Not that she was one of those sorts. At least she tried not to be. "Hello." Her voice was quiet and, for a moment, tinged with some anxiety. There was so much going on here, so many ways it could go. Also she just generally didn't get the chance to interact with people. All of this was so very foreign to her. "I am Emi Ueno" she started, pausing to glance towards Alexandrine. It was only right that he knew. That is, if he didn't already. This wasn't just her decision to make, after all, if it was even that much to begin with. Blue orbs returned to gaze into the eyes of the man sat before her. "My father was the Demon Zorn."
