He knew he couldn't hide for much longer, It was only a matter of time. Shou had observed the pair ever since they were in the tavern, and when the name of the so called 'target' was mentioned, that, and only that sparked his interest. He waited a bit before he got out, but Shou had still allerted them.

"M-my apologies, I did not mean to interrupt you both."

His voice was raucous, perhaps he had'nt spoken in a long time.

The man tried to take one step closer, slowly raising his right hand as a sign of peace, but the moment his foot touched the floor, the two women didn't think twice, immidately pointing their swords right in his direction.

If It wasn't that dark, they could see how close their blades were to his neck.

Shou jumped on the spot, trembling ever so slightly. His eyes twitched, as well as his pupil.

"I swear, this Is all a misunderstanding! I just... couldn't help but hear of whom you spoke of. I happened to be nearby when I saw him."

He stopped for a moment, catching his breath.

"I may know where he went off to. The route he followed yes, peculiar indeed. We could talk more in depth at my residence, as I see I may not be the only overhearer."

He said, looking back at the tavern.

"However...if you wish for me to guide you, I would say that I need my head.

 ─── .°୭̥ ❁ ˎˊ˗ a journey of three ( rp starter for @shousbox & @zoharsdream ) 

irritation swells the veins of erulissë’s forehead and she frowns at the woman before her. she loved the mortal world, is what she kept repeating in concern to her superior’s worries. yet it seems that the mortal world has changed quite drastically since her last visit. or perhaps it was simply the air of this region. 

“I do not know how much more I can stress this, miss.” she addresses in a pointed manner. were her wings out on display, they would surely flick and fluff with her vexation. “but in going against me, you are risking divine retribution. surely you are knowledgeable on that much?” she glowers. behind the pair stood a tavern, one that they had decided to abandon to discuss matters further.

erulissë wasn’t exactly thrilled to be working with the maiden dressed in armour, but she supposed that it could not be helped. not when it seemed like they would both be of great aid to one another. “furthermore, that target has dealings with the heavens. wouldn’t you think it wise to return him to where he belongs? rather than slice your blade through his skull.” she tries to keep her voice from quivering with anger, but she cannot help it. to end off her line of argument, she shoots an accusatory glance at the woman’s sword. “at this rate. we’ll never find that blasted route.’‘

Another buisness, you say?

╙═════════════════╜

While the shortage of employees was preoccupating, the man DID need a few extra money. He sighs, since he doesn't want to say it.

╓═════════════════╖

Well, I suppose I could give It a try.

Would you mind to elaborate on It?

I'd appreciate all the details -

╙═════════════════╜

He stops for a moment, Shou's eyes now fixed on you, almost like that of a disappointed parent's.

His eyebrows are curved as well, as he crosses his arms to speak back to you.

╓═════════════════╖

- as long as it's not that skin buisness

you were talking about.

╙═════════════════╜

primrose— how long does it take for you to get ready for the day what does your routine usually consist of?

EXTREMELY unrelated to my business

He looks at you, unsure whether to give you a proper answer, knowing your intentions a little too well.

However, he sighs, as he proceedes to sit on a curved chair, though there's another one not too far from his.

Before he does sit, Shou makes a gesture that would advice you to take a seat, preferably on that closer chair. He thinks for a moment, his eyes fixed on the floor, before he looks back at you.

╓═════════════════╖

Mhm...It does depend on the day, I'd say.

Normally, It takes me about 20-30 minutes to suit myself,

but I could be slower, depending on my mood.

╙═════════════════╜

He stops for a moment, just to take a small sip from his cup, which almost as though magic Shou was now holding.

╓═════════════════╖

As for my routine; frankly, I do not have one.

You see, I am not familiar with social gatherings,

so I spend most of my time indoors.

╙═════════════════╜

He takes the last sip, as the man gets up to put It on Shou's small kitchen counter.

The man does however keep to speaking to you, without making eye contact.

╓═════════════════╖

Of course, I do take walks during the day or night,

as well as the usual visit to the market to get

all the necessary to live.

╙═════════════════╜

Shou gets his attention back on you now, as he leans a bit on the counter, maybe to avoid sitting for a while.

╓═════════════════╖

I've done multiple jobs through the decades, did you know?

I had to get local currencies, somehow.

I have done a little bit of everything.

╙═════════════════╜

He grins slightly, maybe remembering about his wheareabouts over all those years. He looks away, but he's still comversating

╓═════════════════╖

Nevertheless, as of now I'm legally unemployed.
