"Oh my God. You're... you're not as mean as I was expecting," Ribbon stammered. She knew it was too early to judge whether Jantra was "all that bad" or not, but going by Grant's account she'd been expecting a complete monster, something that would kill a person for the crime of coming within a five-mile radius of it. This thing was eloquent, it was clearly intelligent, and it was somehow even more terrifying than the monster Ribbon had been imagining.

Ribbon took a step back and shied behind Tyler. Tyler wasn't going to need to be told to prepare for a fight if he had to, and there was no use saying anything to Cait as she was probably about as useful in situations like these as Ribbon was. Ribbon didn't know what Jack could do, and she was torn; the smart thing to do would be to tell him to prepare just in case things started kicking off, but at the same time, Ribbon was really interested in the story about Jack getting paid for sex and she didn't want to interrupt him if he was writing it out.

"Kitty!" Maria, her body temperture finally reaching normal levels, quickly hugged the giant-cat-thing. "Gods, it's like a big 'ol super cat! I'm gonna entitled you the "Master of Cuteness"!" She reached as far as her little arms could behind Jantra's ears and started scratching them. "Who's the cutest cat?! Huh? Who's the widdle cuwtest cat?!"

 

[username sucks]

Jantra gently pulled Maria's hands away from his ears. " Oh my, please stop, you're making this little kitty purr. I don't even know your name yet..." Jantra said charmingly with a middle-Eastern accent, a slight purr creeping into his voice. Jantra stepped back and his armor was suddenly gone, replaced by an expensive-looking tuxedo. He bowed to Maria before continuing. "So to whom do I owe the pleasure of meeting this fine evening?" Jantra said as a smile covered his feline face.

 

[Knife-28]

A low sound not unlike a chuckle came from Jack at Maria's display, along with a good-natured shake of his head. As for Cait's question, he nodded, and showed her the note.

Tyler had been focusing on his work and let everyone be their crazy selves as he did. Once he was done with the rats, he moved back up the top floor and got his hair fashioned into something that wasn't totally embarrassing.

 

[WafflesandBacon]

"Oh yeah! Let me introduce everyone! There's Demon Dude, Silent But Sharply, One-Punch Woman, there was an attorney and someone who tried to kill me somewhere, but who knows where they are now, Female Coop, Victor Fries and, the most important," Maria cocked a thumb and pointed it at herself, "Maria O'Connor! Exterminator of Evil and Lover of Cats!"

Making a slight change to Jantra's text color because it's hard to see. Jantra hasn't changed.

"Maria... such a beautiful name. Very befitting of it's owner." Jantra said as he walked back to Maria, looking deeply into her eyes as he spoke.

"But sadly, we do not have time to know each other better at the moment. Business before pleasure. There is a wizard I am searching for. Specifically, one who is rather fond of the cold. You wouldn't happen to know where he is, would you? I need to ... speak with him. Quite urgently." Jantra spoke with an certain kind of elegance despite the scratchy quality in his voice.

 

[Demonjazz]

Amelia was taking in everything. "Would people please explain what's going on?" Amelia wouldn't be affected by the voice as she had a force field around her blocking any mental attacks.

Jantra does not have mind control or anything like that. I'll make it very clear if any of my characters ever attempt that. Sorry for the confusion, I'll reword my last post to fix it. And yes, he does know Amelia's name.

"Ah yes, Amelia. You were the one who tried to shoot my eye earlier. Of course, I did deserve it for attacking you, but I meant no real harm."

Jantra chuckled. "I was just... let's just say I was testing you. Don't worry, you passed. We can leave that all behind us."

 

[Demonjazz]

"You still haven't explained what's going on." Amelia said flatly.
Meanwhile the assistant came back with some Chinese food. "Somebody asked for food?"

 

[username sucks]

"You're no fun at all, are you?" Jantra said disapointed, while shaking his head. "I arrived as recently as you, so there's not much I could tell you. In fact, I think attacking you was the first thing I did. I assure you it wasn't meant in ill will, I just wanted to see if that ring of yours was real. " Jantra chuckled to himself again.

"It is. You showed me that rather quickly. I almost didn't get away in time." Jantra said before going into yet another laughing fit. "Not that I blame you of course. It's not every day that you get strangled by a shapeshifter. " Jantra said before laughing again.

"Oh, don't pay any mind to my rambling. It's been a few centuries since I've had a nice conversation. It seems I missed the sound of my own voice. One of my voices anyway. " Jantra said before going laughing at himself yet again, this time taking a minute to get his composure back. He let out a long sigh before continuing. "Anyway, if you want to know what's going on you'll need to ask someone else. I just wish to know where Grant is.". Jantra gave a quick look around the room.

"I'll just go look for him on my own. I shouldn't be gone long. I'd hate to leave my company waiting." Jantra looked at Maria as he said this, before winking at her and suddenly disappearing.

Done for the night

 

[Demonjazz]

"That's a rather strange reason to strangle a person?" She said right before he left.

 

[Knife-28]

I've seen stranger.

Jack wrote, before showing it to Amelia with a shrug.

 

[username sucks]

Jantra appeared in front of Tyler. "Ah, I was looking for you, 'Demon Dude'." Jantra said with a chuckle at the name Maria had given.

 

[Demonjazz]

"You must live a very strange life, mute man."

 

[Knife-28]

You don't know the half of it.

Jack wrote.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Once Tyler got his hair cut he exited the building and stood outside.

 

[username sucks]

Jantra followed Tyler outside, but he was now wearing his leather armor instead of the tuxedo. "Eh? did you not hear me, Demon Dude?" Jantra asked.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"No. And don't call me that." Tyler said to Jantra.

 

[username sucks]

"I apologize. What would you have me call you?"Jantra replied.
