first hunt [action]

[unfollowed]

GENESSIA COMMONSPACE
[ The groggy haze hasn't yet exactly worn off this demon hunter here and Nero finds himself crashed on the bed he has in this (temporary) room of his. Arm draped across his eyes, he's about five seconds away from conking out where he hopes when he wakes this will all be a bad dream, when the sound of WHATEVER THAT IS keeps him from doing so. With a scowl, he throws himself off the bed, yanks open the door (and nearly off its hinges oops) and- ]

Hey! You wanna keep it down?!

[ He'll just yell that down the hall to whoever or whatever that is. ]


GENESSIA CITY
[ Moving down the streets with a scowl on his face (not like he ever wears another expression) is a white-haired, sword strapped to his back with a glowing blue arm guy. He's heard the spiel about this place, is annoyed with this whole kidnapped by spirits shtick going on here, and can't remember the last time he actually ate something so that's where he's headed. Or hopes he is.

The first food place he finds, he drops some of those red bills down and asks what he can get with some of this and, as he waits for his food to be brought to him, if you're staring, he's gonna feel that... even address you without looking over. ]

Take a picture, it'll last longer.

[ That, or, he's going to be sitting there at whatever table is available, head in his hands and clearly just DONE with this place already. ]

Why so curious?

[ Ah, yes, a mature reply indeed. ]

[sarcastass]

Can't a man ask about another man's pointy magical demon arm?

[unfollowed]

[ He might just be narrowing his eyes a little at that. ]

Why? What's it to you?

[sarcastass]

I have a mild vested interest in other demons in the area.

Good to know who's in town.

[unfollowed]

Other demons?

[ That has Nero take a bit of a step back and turn some to face the man a bit better. ]

You tryna tell me you're one?

THANKS FOR THE PING, YAHOO UR A PAL

[sarcastass]

I guess I don't really look like much of one right now, do I?

[Tell him he's pretty!]

The lack of violence and the presence of a decent vocabulary might be a little confusing too, I suppose. Midge certainly puts on a good show as well.

someone else who still uses yahoo, a kindred spirit

[ Midge... he means the dog, right? So the dog is also a demon? You know what? Yeah, makes total sense. ]

Well you're definitely not like the ones I'm used to putting down.

[ Ah, yes... a demon as a demon hunter. If there was a club, he's pretty sure he'd be kicked out of it. ]

way back here in the early 2000's where we're comfortable

[sarcastass]

A little estranged from the family, I see.

If it makes you any more comfortable, I, nor any of the other demons swanning around Genessia, seem too concerned about causing trouble. I'd go into despotic alien warlord hunting if I were you, that seems to be a more active sector here as far as actual dangers go.

Or maybe you could look into a different field? They're always hiring cashiers around town.

[unfollowed]

[ The scoff that Nero gives at such a suggestion. ]

Yeah, going from demon hunting to cashier sure is a step up on the corporate ladder.

[ Hello, sarcasm. Maybe he can do some bounty hunting or check out Everglade since that seems to be the supernatural hotspot or something. ]

Thanks for the tip, pal.

[sarcastass]

I guess you are a little overqualified, most stores don't require their cashiers know how to disassemble a demon in ten seconds or less.

But you're in for a long, boring, unproductive ride here.

You could always make your own fun though! Manufacturing reasons for you to run around turning supernatural creatures into blood pudding could be lucrative.

I'm not looking to start trouble here, only prevent it.

[ It's what he does back home... unless you count getting himself into trouble with that mouth of his but, tomayto-tomahto. ]

[sarcastass]

With your winning attitude, you might just get to start trouble, and put it down before it gets out of hand!

I can't wait, that will make for some great streaming.

[unfollowed]

[ With another look down to the puffy little dog, Nero glances up to this guy and makes a mental note to remember him for just in case purposes. ]

Like I said, thanks for the tip, pal.

[ A beat. ]

Got any others or is this where we part ways?
