[ flatly: ]

Where I come from, if you stare at people for long periods of time, you're creepy.

[bridesque]

[Her cheeks puff out as she tries her hardest to contain the rising snort. Her face trembles from the effort.]

[baori]

[ THANKS MITSURI.

but if that was supposed to get him to start talking then it does not. if anything it makes him just be at a loss for words?? how is he supposed to refute that?? should he refute that?

giyuu does not have the social skills for this.... ]

[ahappyaccident]

You know, if you wanted to defend yourself, you're doing a pretty bad job of it.

[ just! saying! ]

So, coworkers. What kind of work do you guys do, exactly?

[bridesque]

[He doesn't and it's adorable. Meanwhile, Mitsuri regains her bearings enough to answer.]

W-we're demon slayers.

[baori]

[ closing my eyes.

he doesn't even know how to defend himself in this position!!! and the fact that mitsuri is laughing at him doesn't help but he'll move on from the creepy comment, for now. ]

It's as Kanroji says.

[ahappyaccident]

[ excuse me? rachel frowns at them both. ]

Demon slayers? Like, Lucifer demons? Seven circles of hell demons?

[ what?? ]

[bridesque]

[She laughs out of love.

At Rachel's query, Mitsuri blinks and angles her head toward Tomioka. It's his turn to talk this time.]

[baori]

[ giyuu is ill equipped for this, but it's fine. ]

Lucifer?

[ ??? what??? ]

No, not like those demons.

[ he has no idea what "those" demons are even but what he can comfortably say is that there is probably no demon that goes by "Lucifer" and there are no seven circles of hell. ]

[ahappyaccident]

[ she waits a moment, maybe two, for more of an explanation. but it never comes, so she continues staring at giyuu expectantly. ]

Okay...? What kind of demons, then?

[bridesque]

[Oh, good. Mitsuri is not actually stupid this time if Tomioka doesn't know, either.]

There are all kinds of demons, but all of them subsist on human flesh.

[baori]

[ here for the added bonus of pleasantness. of course there are Exceptions to these rules but they are not to be counted. ]

And they were once humans but have surrendered their humanity long ago.

[ahappyaccident]

Oh, gross. So it's some kind of cannibalism thing?

[bridesque]

[Gross is right. She nods.]

They're much faster and stronger than the average human. That's why there are people like us, who train to slay them.

[Rachel seems familiar with demons as a whole, yet in a different way. Now that's curious.]

What are Lucifer demons?

[baori]

[ there's nothing else he needs to add onto that, plus he's interested in rachel's answer over anything that he could have said.

what kind of demons she's familiar with? are demons consistent across among everyone here? so he'll just be quiet while he listens to her answer. ]
