Well, you've lucked out this once. I'm no enemy of yours.

[ A soft growl rumbles from the dragon's maw as she pets away. His voice resonates warmly, full of approval.

In his own thoughts, Kaito can put the clues together. It's not a complete picture, but he can better understand how she's so forward with him in his 'monstrous' form.

After a few more moments of the pets (and they are damn good pets), Kaito shifts again, bumping his nose to the woman's chest before a long tongue slips past his teeth to gently lick her cheek. ]

Sounds like a lonely job, now that I think about it more.

[abnormalizes]

It is. Hard to get attached, when any of you could die the next day.

[She smooches the tip of his nose.]

I'd rather work for you, if I could leave.

[nightparades]

I can relate, in a different way. I used to force myself to be alone so I'd never have to worry about possibly losing a friend or partner to my job.

Past Kaito was very lonely. And not a cool dragon.

[ A snicker echoes across their telepathic link as he bunts her face a few times with his nose. More licks follow. What is he, a cat? ]

One of my specialties is negotiating between parties where there's a massive imbalance in power, y'know.

If you ever want to try getting out of your current job, I'd be happy to take you on as a client. I've freed men from the wrath of gods—and vice versa. I'd put in the same effort for you.

[abnormalizes]

If you can do it with gods, you can probably handle my manager. But if you got killed doing this for me I'd feel awful about it, so, you know. Don't feel like you can't back out.

[Gives him a nice scritch behind the ear.]

[ A soft, languid sigh resonates across the link. He shifts to lean the side of his head against Evangeline's body, mindful not to bonk her with his horns. ]

I'll be careful. I have a responsibility to those around me to come back alive from every job.

Does your boss have any obvious bribery openings? Are they fueled by money?

[abnormalizes]

I think they also don't want to get in trouble with their boss, and so on. At the very top it's probably money, though?

[It is not, but Evangeline doesn't know enough about L Corp's creators to know the actual end goal for them.]
