So a cat does have claws... how fun. [ A smirk as she leans up against the wall behind her in this short, darkened little alleyway as she adjusted her cloak.

Viaan was never one to venture into town before dusk, it was easier to hide her very unnatural eyes in the low light of tavern candles and fireplaces. Easier still, to plague the dreams of man as the night dragged on. She just didn't expect to be stopped by a rather lovely lady with a beautiful dagger.

A reason why succubus' stay in the shadows and kept interactions with people to the barest minimum. Still, this might be fun. Perhaps one the of the men that recently died was due to her and her influence, its a tad bit hard to say. ]

Geez he is the king of having to repeat himself to people this week.

"I said I'm on my way to Knowhere. And I'm sure you're busy and headed somewhere important or you wouldn't have just rammed into my shuttle like that. ...And nobody who struts around in Kree armor is exactly known for laying down on the job, so I'm sure you're being paid well, but a quick lift and a drop-off before you head on your merry way is really the least you could do. I'll even compensate you. It's literally right over there."

This is an exaggeration.

Yes, as he says this, he points in the most remarkably correct direction toward the Collector's planet, but even for people that know how to get to it with ease, it's hardly near enough to be in view.
