Just Sitting Around.

Kuro sits at the bar, disappointed in the quality of the drinks, but not wanting to go up the three or four flights of stairs to his room. He looks around at the bright barroom without actually seeing it. He was only half-way through his first drink, it was putrid and he dreaded the next sip almost as much as he needed it.

As Blade enters the bar he notes there is a few people in the place and then he sits down next to kuro at the bar and ask "Can I have a glass of water please" barely audible that the bar tender barely heard me.

I continue to sip at my disgusting drink in the disgusting room, now with another disgusting person. I carefully watch the new arrival, who, much to my chagrin, sat right beside me, out of the corner of my eye.

While sitting there I ask "hey my name it Blade what is yours?"

I just kind of look at him. What kind of naive, innocent fool...? I shake my head and look away.

"Ok if u don't want to talk we can just sit here" he says moving his tail to sit on his stool.

I glance at him again. He looked fairly naive, as well. After a long while of deliberation, and with a grunt, I address him, "Kuro Yoru." I watch his reaction closely, looking for signs of his corruption. He can't be pure...Nobody can...What is his flaw? What is his sin?

"That's a nice name it is ten times better then my full name Blade Perse" I say fixing my tail to be more comfortable.

"Eh?" I ask, then understand. "It means "Black Night." I tell him. Where is it...? Where is his shame...? His falsities? Where is his sin...?!

Finishing my glass of water the final drop hit the bartop I then proced to take the sleve of my shirt and clean it. "That's nice it is quite appealing." I say looking kuro up and down wondering what was it that was puzzleing him.

I sigh and set my glass down, then pay the bartender, explaining I didn't want the rest. I then turn to Blade, "The drinks here are vile, I'm leaving." I slowly stand and head to the door.

Setting down his glass I run to catch up with kuro "hey where r u going now" I say grabing his arm.

I stop and look at Blade with irritation. "To my room." I say gruffly, wrenching my arm from his hand and continuing my deliberate walk.

Walking after kuro I ask "can I come to I usally stay around in the halls."

I stop again and stare at him. "Are you sure you want to stay with a random stranger?" I ask dangerously.

"I can handle myself" I say flicking my tail behind me and twitching my ears "if you try anything I can get away and leave."

There it is! Not completely innocent!  "Fine." I grunt to the boy, leading him to my room and hoping he would stop being so childish. The pretense of innocence...disturbs me...humans are foul creatures in disguise...hiding behind thin, paper mache facades.

"So um how has your day been" I ask as I follow kuro to his room.

"Just follow, okay? We're almost there..." I say, stopping at the door and throwing it open, to reveal a fairly normal, although darkly colored, room. "Coming in?" I ask roughly.

"Yeah" I respond adjusting to the light blinking a few times as my eyes turn yellow.
