^{❝ And to think, that a HUNTRESS-IN-TRAINING is assigned to the same task as I am. Seems that this Village is more DESPERATE than I thought. ❞}

^{A gentle sigh slips through the Mercenary’s lips quietly, hand resting on her hip as she shakes her head in annoyance. Just her luck, she’d have to deal with some brat getting in her way while she worked. Oh well, she was getting paid, regardless.}

Evelyn / Lovxbites

^{Eve wanted to push her away, but she had no strength, the urge came stronger now, years of punishment pour out in wet tears as she fought against the want, the need to feed. “I-I’ll k-kill you…” she whispered as her mouth opened wide, and she took a bite into Velvet with two sharp fangs, breaking the skin effortlessly.}

^{There was silence…as she drank, the warm iron taste of blood poured down her throat, her senses tickled, like a reward from her body for doing as it asked for once. The tears continued as she drank more and more, not seeming to stop or care.}

^{With the other having bitten down and begun to drink, Velvet only gives a slight flinch at the sudden sharpness of her fangs piercing her skin. The younger had been holding back for so long, and seemed worried she could actually KILL her. That was another sign…that this girl could NEVER become a monster. A hand moves to stroke through her hair, her other rubbing the girl’s back as she leans her head against the other’s calmly.}

^{❝ I won’t allow that, because then my promise would be BROKEN at that point. And I won’t allow you to be alone anymore, Evelyn. Just fill yourself as much as you can; if I begin to feel weak, I’ll stop you. ❞}

^{She knows her AURA will heal over the bite mark effortlessly, and knows she has PLENTY of blood to spare; she hasn’t been INJURED in over a week in any of her assignments. As such, she allows the girl to drink to her heart’s content, all the while holding and keeping her close.}

“Aw, that reference doesn’t work here! 
EXCUSE you? It’s not ridiculous, I’m
Spider-Man! At least on my world, don’t
think I have a counterpart here, so olden
times. Not as advanced as home it seems.” 

^{❝ …I don’t follow.}

          ^{Are you TRYING to say that you’re from another world all together? Because if that’s what you are trying to say, then you’re CRAZIER than you look. A Daemon Spider would have been more easier to believe than some nutjob in a SUIT who poses as a human. ❞}

^{Arms cross over chest quietly as her golden eyes narrow onto him, tapping bandaged digits of left against her forearm calmly. An arch of brow is given as she just examines him over, unable to catch even the FAINTEST WHIFF of the Daemonblight upon him, so her OWN thoughts were disregarded almost immediately. Whatever he was, it wasn’t something she has ever run into before.}

toko did not like how composed this woman was despite wearing pretty much literally nothing. she must have been a nudist, some freak who got off on people seeing her gross cleavage. the author was blushing, grinning, yet her eyes were filled with malice.

she was the sort that liked to bring women to their knees, to shame them and make them feel worthless. this made her feel like she had power over them when in reality, it was they who had power over her simply for being the superior beauty, the superior charmer, the superior woman, the superior.

“i-it does matter. y-y-you m-make an i-impression w-with that s-stuff you wear.”

^{This one was beginning to annoy her, boots clicking upon the floor as she approached her calmly; gaze lingering over her as she got right up to her. The other acted as if she CHOSE to acquire this get up, but in truth, she had no CHOICE to use this attire. It was all she could GET at the time, stringing together some Prisoner’s things to create an at least SLIGHTLY SUITABLE attire.}

^{❝ …When you’re an escaped PRISONER from a DAEMON prison, you take what you can get, Girl. This style mixes with how I fight and doesn’t restrict me in anyway, as well as if it gets ruined in a fight, oh well, it’s already ruined as is, and I won’t need to WORRY about repairing it as much. ❞}

^{Tone is cold, leaning closer to the other as a hand reaches up, moving to gently brush he bandaged claws to the other’s cheek, a MOCKING TONE taking to her words now as her eyes narrow.}

^{❝ My VISAGE shouldn’t matter to someone who isn’t me. I care little for how others see me, because I take what I can get. Got it? ❞}

Jaune Arc / Blondandclumsyleader

“Oh yea, sorry, Im not a beggar at all” He was just so happy to find some where to eat “So Uh… You have a name at all?” It wouldn’t be too bad to share a drink with someone new, even though he couldn’t drink, it was nice to meet new people “My names Jaune, Jaune Arc.”

^{❝ Velvet. ❞}

^{Never been one for proper introductions, hence she never gives her last name less it is asked for, she just offers it calmly over her shoulder as she turned from him and walks off, expecting him to follow. He didn’t seem much younger than she — she wagered he was probably a student of some HUNTSMAN ACADEMY out there. As such, she may as well see what information she can get from him as they walk — make a bit of small talk or so.}

^{❝ …So, which Academy are you apart of, Jaune? ❞}

anarchiia:

_{“Ooh, got a mouth on you, don’t ya?” she chuckled, her shoulders relaxed and gaze soft.} 

_{But she wasn’t totally passive - no her fingers twitched noncommittally at her sides, just waiting for the stranger to make a single wrong move. Then again, Gwyn liked to give people the benefit of the doubt, even if they were strangers wandering around in the middle of the night.} 

_{“If I didn’t know better, I’d say that was a threat.”}

^{This one…was beginning to get on the Daemon Hunter’s nerves. Eyes narrow coldly as her left hand begins to curl into a fist, both dropping to her sides though right is placed on her hip. She’s ready for anything; it’d only take but an instant for her Wrist-Blade to unsheathe and be ready for a fight. Not to mention…that SINGLE advantage she always had in any fight — but it’s a LAST resort, only to be used if it’s life or death.}

          ^{I doubt it’s that right now…probably just her testing me.}

^{❝ More along the lines of a PROMISE if you raise even a FINGER in hostility against me, girl. ❞}

^{She wasn’t one to make EMPTY THREATS like others did — no, she was WELL KNOWN for her expertise in combat, as well as her BRUTALITY in her assignments. No target escaped her, and they always fell, be it from a blade, or their skulls crushed as if stuck in a massive vice. This one gets in her way, and she’ll become just another CORPSE at the Merc’s feet.}

^{❝ Otherwise, I don’t have a reason to attack. You’re not a target of mine. ❞}

Evelyn / Lovxbites

^{Evelyn was shaking in a state of shock, she did hear Velvet, but the words feel dull on her ears as her nose twitched. “N-No…” her pupils dilated, goosebumps tickled down her back and her breath became heavy. The smell of blood had hit the air, and the months of holding back were catching up to her now.}

^{Her shaking started to become harder, as she was forcefully holding herself back by this point. “V-V-vel…p-please…r-r-run….I-I…i-i can’t…” her voice was cracked and weak as tears began to fall down her cheeks.}

^{she was so hungry…}

^{At first, she is confused, but then she understands almost immediately. It was one of the first things she had figured out about this sweet little angel of a girl; she was a VAMPIRE BAT FAUNUS in the end, and had killed a PET by sucking it dry. Eyes turn to her damaged, bleeding hand, then she gently reaches towards her, to pull her close and with a soft, soothing whisper.}

^{❝ …I understand; you’re HUNGRY, right? But not for food, but blood…I don’t know if mine will taste good — it’s TAINTED with GRIMM ESSENCE after all. But…I promised you that I’d make sure you were fed, and safe. The last is…harder than you may think…but I CAN make sure you are fed.}

             ^{Go ahead and drink…if you want to, I won’t stop you. I’m a big girl, you know, and I can STOP YOU if you begin to take too much that it begins to effect me. Alright? ❞}

^{In truth, she is WORRIED that the other COULD perhaps kill her by mistake…but in the end, she’s already DEAD as is. Would her DEATH really matter, in the long run? But as this thought crosses her mind, she rejects it instantly; she COULDN’T die until she ripped that WITCH’S head clean the fuck off! She would KILL that cur, SALEM, at all costs. Her resolve wouldn’t let her die, so she’s already readying her left arm — she’d form her claw and pin the other down if she felt the other was taking too much.} 

             ^{…But could I keep IN CONTROL if I did that…?}

                           ^{…Hopefully it won’t GO THAT FAR…}

Evelyn / lovxbites

^{She did something wrong…}

^{Evelyn had tears pouring down her face and she didn’t even know it, it happened in an instant, yet the seconds felt like days as she slumped down on her bed. Her voice now quiet, She messed up, the world wasn’t so different from what she’d been exposed too, even the one who took her in was like this.}

^{Eve balled up, holding her knees close to her chest, a fetal position she had developed for self-protection, as little as that meant. Her head was sore, maybe it was on the point of bleeding, but she didn’t utter a sound, she only closed her eyes and wait if anything else were to happen.}

          ^{Damn it…this kid really IS going to be a handful.}

                    ^{She deserves better than someone like me taking care of her.}

^{Thoughts spread through her mind as she just looked away, hand smashing into the wall so forcefully that the room SHAKES from the blow, bones cracking in knuckles as teeth are grit in anger. But not at the Bat, but herself. The STING she felt of her knuckles splitting, of the BLOOD seeping against the wall…it was penance for upsetting this sweet girl.}

^{❝ …I told you…I’m a being of HALF GRIMM…I…I could accidentally kill you if you aren’t careful. You need to be wary of this when approaching me. Especially…during my night terrors. I lash out when I wake…I also am always on guard, I’m a Mercenary and have to be, Evelyn. ❞}

^{Her tone is gentle, yet it’s also holding it’s own sadness underneath it all. This…wasn’t a life she wanted to live, but she was FORCED into it at this point. What else could she ever be? She is hesitant, but scoots a little closer to the girl, a shaky hand reaching out to gently run her bandaged digits through her locks, to try and calm her. Meanwhile, her bleeding, damaged hand, is limp in her lap, aching and beginning to swell. She’ll keep it that way for a bit longer…at least until the other has calmed. She is Velvet’s first priority.} 

^{❝ …It’s not your fault. ❞}

❝ –Darling unless you are looking for trouble, I suggest you to stop following me.❞  she sensed the girl from a mile or so, her scent strong && sweet like some sort of herb or blend perfume. the dragon snorted with disgust at that smell, too indelicate && strong for her.  Sure the girl didn’t come for just a walk– she was aware of the potential danger, but she was curious.

^{Seems she had been caught, well, that’s FINE in the end. Stepping out of the shadows, golden hues lock over the other’s form calmly. This one…SOMETHING was different about her. The Half Grimm had caught that difference when she passed by her only earlier, and had tailed her to try and get an answer. But seems her stealth skills needed to still be worked on, oh well, good to know now.}

^{❝ …I…Feel you were, at one point, my target. What ARE you? You’re neither HUMAN nor FAUNUS…you’re MORE than that. Something that my…well…my once QUEEN would fear. I want to know WHAT that is. ❞}

^{Her tone is cold, and showing a BIT of hostility, of VENOM in her words as her eyes narrowed onto the other. She’s WILLING to attack her, to FIGURE OUT what the other is the hard way. If it’s something that can HELP HER kill that wretched WITCH — SALEM — then damn straight she will find a way to acquire the other’s power, be it through FORCE or MUTUAL PARTNERSHIP.}
