<Nocturnal Harmonia>

[Bloodedge]

Neither Ren nor Miko had what one would call a bucket list, apparently. He couldn't be bothered with something so limiting, if only because of how many things he found interesting. In fact, Ren knew of a website specifically designed to make lists of sexual preferences. On that site, his 'favorites' list was the longest, his 'yes' list in second place. There were some 'maybes' that he simply hadn't tried or envisioned as possibilities, and his 'no' list was... quite minimal. As such, when asked what his 'no' list would be, Ren opened his phone. He decided it would be much easier to show the lack of interest in scat and such things, but also the sheer dominance of the favorites section. "Actually... I use this site. If you want to take a look..." he said, offering the phone.

On the topic of enhancing the size of his cock, Yugi thought a bit of specification might be worthwhile. "It wasn't so much a choice as it was a feature. If I become physically stronger, that's the bonus," he explained briefly. "The same applies to some other things. If you need a semen sample, I'm gonna need a pitcher," he added. With that, the eye test was underway. As much of a struggle as it was for Yugi to keep focused beyond his own deviant desires, he managed well enough. Tae could even take note of his incidental mana application, which created the precedent of his mana being nonexistent when not in active use. 'Really? Are we getting fucking loaner mana?' he wondered, ready to complain to the System administrator again. Well, they weren't actually awakened as Hunters. Perhaps they had a chance to stack their System atop what applied to everyone else. How ridiculous that would be. Something more interesting still would be happening shortly afterwards. It was no effort of Yugi's, but Tae's reflex test would result in a slight tug against her mana, as if Yugi's very existence wanted to welcome her into its embrace when that mana made contact with him. Strangely enough, he didn't even notice as she tapped away... but Tae herself would likely feel it, being used to finite mana control as she likely was.

[Apollymi]

Miko would note the lack of bucket list and call it a commonality. She'd say both of them seemed to dislike limits at face value which would only result in more positive marks in their favor she decided. Of course, there was the matter of what counted as a 'no' from the lad. Miko in her day's worth of sexual discovery was just trying to determine what counted as truly gross, she knew what she thought was truly gross, but she didn't want to accidentally cross any boundaries or find herself on the receiving end of something she definitely didn't want. "There's a website for that?" Miko muttered surprised. "Well, actually I guess there is a website for everything, rule 34 and all of that~" Miko muttered as she walked over. She was offered a phone, so she accepted and she immediately looked for the no list. "Sou ka, my noes aren't too weird then," Miko muttered having seen it. "Since I'm already here though, might as well, have a peek at these favorites♪~" Miko chirped her eyes widening. 'This list is fucking massive!' she thought with excitement.

Meanwhile, Tae was learning that somethings were simply a part of the growth of her new patient's person, not active choices. The growth of his manhood being a side effect of upping his Strength. He also claimed that there was an increase to the amount of loss of bodily fluids like semen. "Sou ka, more and more proof for the bodily fluids count has been coming in. Along with reports of decreased bathroom usage, by those who actively use magical abilities at high frequencies. As long as you don't feel sluggish or have any kind of allergic reactions or swelling that part is also probably fine," Tae explained. Though it was interesting to hear this had some more direct and notable statistical correlation. Just the same that reflex test would reveal some odd reactions. A pull. That was what Tae would call it, a sensation of dragging her own mana covered finger towards his body. "Odd, normally mana doesn't come with that sort of specializations when someone isn't obviously S-rank," she mused. If nothing else, this lad was a special case beyond normal special cases. Tae stood up straighter and looked at the lad, running her thumb over her forefinger as if double checking the sensation. "I have some basic understanding of your physical status now, Speed and Mana however might require a more practical approach. I should still have a prototype measuring tool in here... for Mana. Speed is a bit different though," Tae mentioned. This boy's current standing would have him at about a C-rank unless his other two parameters were really low. Still, his physical form and the supposed growth of his manhood would put him back towards the higher end than that.

[Bloodedge]

Despite her plentiful interests and degenerate behavior, Miko expressed surprise upon finding out there was a website for kink lists. Well, that was the case until she recalled the popular Rule 34 at least. "Hai. This one is intended for role-players, but it was also pretty good for finding things that aren't common. Maybe even things you didn't think about before," he said with a slight nod. Things they both rejected were similar. Ren figured that would mostly be the case, as he couldn't imagine actual people being into those things. They just seemed so counterproductive to intercourse. Ah, but she wasn't done with the 'no' list alone ─ she began perusing his extensive list of favorites, eyes wide as she saw the length of it. Ren had it in him to look a bit sheepish after that reaction. "It's... hard to separate," he claimed.

A lack of bathroom usage seemed to be rather common among the strong. Well, he could at least believe he and Miko weren't too outlandish in this world now. "Good. I haven't gone in the better part of two days," Yugi claimed. He was shaking his head thereafter, having nothing resembling an allergic reaction or... any struggles, really. As for whatever mana specialization Tae was talking about, he hadn't a clue. How strange; Yugi wasn't used to being totally out of the loop. "What specialization?" he asked immediately for clarification. With her mention of checking mana and speed, Yugi decided to offer the woman a time-saver of sorts. "Agility and Intelligence are the same. Three points higher than Endurance, five points lower than Strength. Ten points higher than Perception, if that makes it all easier."

[Apollymi]

According to Ren, the site he was showing her was originally intended for roleplayers but had plentiful options that one may not have ever considered. Miko could understand that part. "Well given the current state of the world and the oddity of things found in Gates, I am sure there are quite a few things of interest on the lists," Miko chattered easily enough. Still as she looked through the massiveness of this list, she had the grace to remember that someone was watching her and smiled at him brightly. "Iia, I understand completely. I'll make one too, and it would probably be just as outrageous. I really didn't know some of these were a thing, like cum vomiting, why couldn't someone hold it all? You're supposed to stop if you oggie!" the girl said in her oddity but she did like to eat and she was a great consumer of semen over the last couple of days. He didn't have to feel embarrassed or anything, Miko found herself to be just as bad.

At the same time, Yugi was in the middle of quite the examination. As Tae studied his form and took her own measurements of his outputs she found him to be one of the most interesting subjects she'd ever come across. "A long bit of time between bathroom uses is normal. In truth the more often you use mana expelling abilities the less likely it will be that you even need to use the bathroom at all," she expressed. "I mean it doesn't seem like I have to tell you this, but you should still bathe regularly but actual toileting needs might disappear completely depending on how your mana ends up working," she explained of the situation in general. As for the specialization the lad immediately questioned it. It was so obvious when he didn't know something or couldn't just put it together with context clues, it was a rather cute thing to witness. "Hehehe~" she laughed, she could respect that attitude and found it oddly attractive, perhaps a bit too much for what their relationship currently was. If anyone was watching that Intimacy bar would increase by about 5 percent as she completed her first set of numbers. "Your mana seems to be trying to absorb other sources. Or magnatize them and bring them in. The sensation is attractive as a force, but that kind of thing is pretty abnormal without the pure magnitude of S-ranked mana behind it," Tae expressed. Soon after she was given some rather specific understanding. And based on that she could fill in the rest of her numbers.

Strength: C+
Durability: C-
Speed : C
Mana: C
Senses: D

"Sou ka, that would put you at a very round C-rank, assuming your understanding of your own Speed and Mana are correct. Being C-rank is rather rare in and of itself though. It's fascinating that you claim to be capable of increasing these numbers at all."

[Bloodedge]

"Eto... I don't think anyone has updated it for the Gates. It might have been more than detailed enough based on fantasy alone," Ren presumed of the people managing that website. For the people using it however, Ren counted himself as one quite interested in certain things that were once sheer fantasy. "Some people have talked about seeing Elves in certain Dungeons above B-rank," he stated as if it were a simple thing to be excited about. Beyond that, Miko intended to make a list of her own. Ren was quite interested in seeing that and comparing it to his own, even though he still had no firm expectations of bedding the girl. Her commentary about the 'cum vomit' tag was one he had a bit of insight about. "That one pairs best with excessive cum. Like when it happens too suddenly and is too much, so the person getting it has to cough it all up. It's free lube and one of the better messes to look at... I think," he declared with an amount of ease that seemed to taper as he spoke.

The way Tae made things sound, Yugi would likely never need a toilet again. He wasn't even sure if his lack of need was the same as everyone else's, but that part didn't matter. The doctor stressed that he should still bathe, but... she was right about not needing to tell him. "I'd bathe at least twice a day even if I sweat star juice or some crazy shit like that," he insisted. Yugi's lack of knowledge in the following moments received a laugh from the woman. Oddly enough, that came with an increase that effectively doubled her existing Intimacy rating. Her route was now just shy of Kaguya's starting point. Yugi had been keeping that screen active just to keep track, finding it interesting what contributed to growth. Regardless, there was Tae's actual explanation to consider. She claimed his mana had a quality that absorbed... but that didn't make sense in a vacuum. Ah, he knew what it had to be. "... Oh. I get it. My mana doesn't have magnetic qualities or anything ─ not to my knowledge. That's likely happening because you and I are compatible. One of my main powers comes from... well, let's call it creating bonds. I can even empower Hunters with it."

[Apollymi]

According to Ren, no updates had occurred in the site since before the Gates, but most things found in Gates were covered by the ideal fantasies alone. "Sou ka, that makes sense, no such thing as an original idea or anything like that♪~" Miko chirped seeming to have made up her mind. She'd still been looking through the lad's phone, leaned against that desk she'd cleaned off and finding the list rather interesting. Just the same there was some interesting news, Elves were found in certain B-ranked or higher dungeons. "I'd fuck an elf without question. That shit is so high on the list♪~" she sang those words in absolution. After reading through his list, she'd eventually give the lad back his phone and slip her own out of her pocket, she'd be typing in that website and beginning the set up of her own preferences, while they chattered between them. Cum-vomiting was explained by the lad with quite a bit of forthrightness. She smiled softly hearing what he had to say, but looked up with absolute smug confidence. "I haven't met that kind of a load yet, I'm not wasting anything that yummy just because I was surprised," she stated firmly. Of course as far as messes went he was quite right, "I have pure OCD but sexual messes somehow don't really bother me, in the same way that other things do," she commented. It was obvious she had OCD by the way she cleaned up his desk. The whole thing was now organized with a clear workspace in the middle and items organized in drawers. So she could happily begin working on her list, not a speck of dust on her as the magical Veil shifted and disappeared.

It seemed that Yugi was among the young men who took personal hygiene quite seriously. That was good to know, considering she'd probably be doing several of these evaluations over the course of their partnership. "I haven't heard of weird sweat flavors, though apparently some Hunters have become super foodies. Those who awaken with higher senses of taste or smell have become exceedingly picky over what they eat or who they hang around with it's quite interesting," Tae mentioned as she was still a doctor and a different kind of nerd. An explanation of the lad's mana qualities seemed to lead to a different conclusion in the boy himself. Instead of a magnetic quality he claimed an existing compatibility between the two of them for the sensation. "Uh, huh..." Tae said. The lad had been shooting straight with her the entire time. She could have assumed this was some sort of come-on for an extended period of time, but that wasn't it entirely. "If you can't actually do that and it isn't just a come on... I'd keep that inside your head until you make yourself big enough to not be kidnapped, vivisected and abused~" she expressed, it came out as a joke but she was quite serious morbid though it was, this kid would end up a government lab rat, if anyone figured out a way to abuse his powers and he wasn't yet big enough to defend himself.

[Bloodedge]

One thing they absolutely agreed on already was an interest in elves. Whether stereotypically tall or the newer form of human-sized or undersized elves seen in media, Ren supported the idea of elf-fucking 100%. That much would show as he nodded along with Miko's statement. "So high. I hope there are multiple kinds, you know? I would want the elves with super-long, grabbable ears, but also the type that are just pointy. I'd really like an elf on the shorter side with the long ears though," Ren chattered, visualizing himself balls-deep in the mouth of a kneeling elf while using that elf's ears as leverage. As he was still looking at Miko and she fit most criteria, that elf in his imagination naturally copied her look. As if Ren didn't have enough reason to pop a boner, Miko talking about 'yummy' ejaculate that she wouldn't waste for being surprised... well, that went a bit beyond 'interesting' and had Ren sitting on that futon with his left knee raised high for... reasons. As he leaned into that thigh, he reclaimed his phone and began nodding again to another topic of interest. Despite her OCD, Miko had no issue with sexual messes. If they boarded the same train of logic, that would make total sense. "Cleaning up that kind of mess is most of the fun in afterglow. Or in transition," he suggested.

According to Tae, Hunters with enhanced taste or smell senses had become rather strange about food... and people they surrounded themselves with. That was something for Yugi to think of. She already thought it interesting, but he may have known why those things were connected. "Magic and monsters entering the world, not much time to fuck around huh? I can make that more interesting. Mana has a taste and smell. Bodily fluids carry that. You're welcome," the lad explained. When he went on to explain the likeliest reason for that tug Tae felt, Yugi could visualize a single gear turning in the doctor's mind. She at least knew he wasn't simply making a pass at her ─ not exclusively. That little joke however, would be an opening for Yugi to prove both thoughts were true. "If you want to kidnap and abuse me, I'm all for it. Maybe pass on most of the vivisection though. I can only heal so much~" he flirted with eerie amounts of seriousness bleeding through. "But yes, I can actually do that. There's just one requirement that probably sounds totally unbelievable, and maybe a little asinine, before it's possible. You're on your way to it already♥~"

[Apollymi]

The likeness between Miko and Ren was rather interestingly high. At least when it came to fantasy tropes. Apparently, Ren would have enjoyed a small elf as one of his primary conquests. Miko thought she could pull off something like that under the right circumstances, given her own oddities around dressing up. "I don't mind the small ones, but as the person who is usually the smallest in a room, I am looking for one of those gentle giant doting types. Basically, I'm trying to climb some trees, or gobble up a dick while I'm standing up!" Miko affirmed only to have her eyes widen. "Woops♪~ Those really do slip out at the weirdest times," she mused having the grace to be a little bit embarrassed about having shared that very random thought that popped up in her head and fell out from between her lips. Still she gave the lad back his phone and went on to use her. Her login was made, her email confirmed her list, began with swiftness. All the while she observed the lad in front of her, changing his position slightly and a wicked little thought appeared in her head. She'd been able to observe that sort of thing, but that being said she would continue to observe. Miko would instead keep up the conversation, "Yeah, I don't mind the clean-up for that at all. I've also developed different habits around it which probably count as aftercare~" she mused. Afterglow and the like aside, she'd eventually finish her own list and save it while they chatted. A few moments later she was coming over to where he was, "I can't offer you my phone for odd reasons, so I'll sit in your lap and let you look through it, left or right?" she asked the young man a devious smirk on her face.

Meanwhile, Tae was technically receiving more information from the lad who'd popped up in her office. He questioned her ability to 'fuck around' as he called it, given the appearance of magic and monsters in the world. "I am a doctor you know, we aren't known for having high amounts of free time to begin with. New issues, new diseases, new things to study, and find proper treatments and cures for..." she stated honestly. "Of course it does, but if it works on such an individual basis, then the rest of my hypotheses make sense as well... still going to have to go for smell testing I guess," she murmured frowning at the news that bodily fluids were mana influenced, though it was the sort of thing she could have thought was implied by her own words. She was also a hunter so going through and figuring out how to collect new materials was also something she had to do. Add to all of that her odd reputation and the pool shrank further. That was a common sense thing. As for her commentary about how he shouldn't tell anyone about the truth of his power, she could only shake her head at his flirtations, though she did appreciate them in general. "I didn't mean me specifically. I'm just an S-rank, I could only hold a person hostage for a little while before someone would come and ask me to let them go," she stated only to add a joke a moment after. "Besides, I'm a good enough healer that I could keep you alive irrespective of how much I take you apart~" she stated honestly. That was the truth of the matter, she was without question the best S-rank Healer in the whole of Japan. "The whole thing is already asinine, the only reason I'm still listening is because compatibility by nature confirms a few other theories I have, it's filling in the holes in my research, but go ahead, keep talking at least then I can work out a bit more for actually helping people," she stated honestly. Whatever the case, while they continued to talk and her examination came to an end in general, a certain red haired woman was being driven across the city. She was now, only a few blocks away from Leblanc's where she intended to stop first, knowing that the lad in the clinic was under the duress of examination and thus wouldn't be leaving any time soon.

[Bloodedge]

Short as she was, Miko seemed to prefer the idea of dealing with a taller elf. He, too, had an interest in the proverbial tree-climbing that came with such things... but in an accidental utterance, Miko spoke of gobbling a dick while standing. Ren's raised leg was pulled even closer to his chest, as if to naturally hide the growth of his erection. Why was he doing that? Well, it was simply an act of habit at this point. "You could go for a workaround by having a guy stand on top of something. But I get the tall elf thing too. A boob-hat while standing would be awesome," he agreed, disregarding the girl's accidental outburst entirely. Ren might have been the last person she needed to hide such speech from. "You don't need to censor. You've seen my list," he specified. Ah, but there was more. For whatever reason, she couldn't hand over her phone. Ren wasn't one to question someone's privacy for any purpose, nor would he reject an attractive girl who wanted to sit in his lap while they were already discussing deviant behavior. Left or right? Did she mean which side? Well, Ren had a preference if so. "Left? Wait, do you mean your left or my left? Uh... whichever suits you I guess," he decided.

At the same time, Tae confirmed her lack of activity that would have surely led to many discoveries. Yugi alone had already made multiple. If she'd been in his position, the Eternal Slumber may be all but solved by now. "You should make some time for it. Even if it's not me, though I get the feeling it will be sooner rather than later, you'll come to realize a lot of things from a little... experimentation. Patient's advice~" he suggested. As for her ability, or alleged lack thereof to hold him hostage for an extended period of time, he had to argue her point on the matter. "That doesn't apply the same to me. You know who I am. As far as the world is concerned right now, I don't even exist. The few people looking for me, specifically, would have to know I was around and here before they even dreamed of going through you to find me. Theoretically, I'm one of very few people you could kidnap and keep forever. That's a lot of time to experiment and heal me up, or to address the fact that... I'm not a Healer and don't have a single innate healing ability," he said, adding further detail to his alleged ability to restore himself to some extent. Tae wasn't the only person in this examination room having her theories supported. This whole time, the pair were basically completing each other's existing research. As Yugi saw it, that pattern would continue over time. "I'll fill the holes in your research or... no. No, that one's too obvious," Yugi commented. "Done running checks? If you still need proof I can become stronger, say the word. Anything helps the build I'm going for, so I can buff for whatever is easiest or most effective for your next test."

[Apollymi]

A short person with a size preference was pretty normal. Miko found herself checking such a thing off that list while they spoke and she kept an ear open for the workaround that was presented by Ren. "Hmm, I guess I have done something a bit like that... still, I'm here for the aggressive head pats. I want to find out what they're like from the perfect angle," Miko claimed earnestly. As for a standing boob hat. "I had one of those earlier. It's as awesome as you think. 5 out of 5 stars, do recommend♪~" Miko chirped. What was more, Miko was given an extra bit of permission, told she didn't need to censor herself, she'd already seen his list. "That's great... if I'm being honest, I've been trying to reinstall my filter since I started interacting with more people recently and it has mixed effects," she admitted, still she'd visibly be relaxing soon after. Offering her own list and trying to figure out where this lad wanted her to sit. He had a preference, left, he said originally, but then he had more clarifying questions. "Tehehe♪~" A chirping little laugh escaped her, but a look of smug happiness spread across her face. "Well, if you're leaving it up to me I'm sitting on top of your dick, shitsureishimasu♪~" Miko decided, since he was a pervert she decided that his instinct also wanted her sitting on top of his dick so she went to his left side and settled into his lap, her list visible on her scree and she held it up for him to peruse while she aimed to gently wiggle against his manhood, should she have chosen correctly.

Meanwhile, Tae was receiving advice from a patient. A little experimentation even if it wasn't with him would go a long way. She could see that being useful, she could even see herself expressing such a thing to a couple of people if she really wanted to know how such things worked. "I will keep it in mind, I suppose..." she admitted almost chuckling at the lad's audacity. What was more, the lad claimed that she could kidnap him for several reasons which seemed legitimate enough from his own perspective. She supposed he had a minor point, "All of that would have been true, before Shidou-kaichou caught wind of you. Even without knowing who you are, she wouldn't let you disappear even into my care for that long without knowing exactly what I was up to," she explained. Even while knowing who he was it would only invite more trouble to her, if the Prime Minister discovered she was holding his son hostage. Whatever the case, he wasn't a Healer and didn't have an innate ability to do so, but would still heal on his own, this was something worth noting. "I figured you wouldn't be a healer. Your parameters don't lean that way innately, I assume it's something to do with whatever you use to increase your stats," she made an educated guess. "As for you raising your stats, if you can do multiples Strength and Senses would be easiest to noticed differences for immediately. You'll also want more Durability if you plan to keep aiming so high on the totem pole, you'll get completely worked over otherwise. there are documented cases of people dying from having sex with S-ranks," she expressed her own understanding of the lad's goals and his potential to keep attracting higher ranked women to himself. All the while, Makima was in a car which was pulling up outside of Leblanc's and now casually looking at the back alley cafe with innate curiosity. "Can you get a better look inside from here, Kaito?" she wondered knowing he couldn't just hack directly inside but perhaps nearby CCTV and other such things could help.

[Bloodedge]

"Aggressive head pats?" Ren questioned initially, only to give it further thought and figure out what she meant. "Sou ka. Yeah, that would probably be good from both sides," he decided. Mention of boob hats led to Miko mentioning how she had one earlier today. Ren was quite envious of that. "Lucky. I've only had that while sitting down," he admitted, lamenting his own tallness. The 'installation' of verbal filters was a problem Ren knew well. At this point, his entire life was one big filter for his true thoughts, hence the silent protagonist approach in part. Either way, it was time for Miko to seat herself in his lap. Her question was indeed about the side she would sit on, and without a single reprehension... she announced her destination was right on top of his dick. The way she said that had a strong implication. While she made her way over, Ren moved with the intention of unbuttoning and unzipping his trousers... but by the time he straightened his left leg, Miko was already planting herself atop the bulge over his thigh. One surprise immediately followed another, but Ren couldn't complain either way. "... Oh─"

Tae would be keeping in mind the benefits of fooling around a bit. Of course she would; proper research would always be done by her type. Even if she were asexual, Yugi figured improving her ability to heal others by having sex would be something she did actively, provided results were assured. "I know you will. And you wouldn't have to worry about her either, I don't think. She can't keep me under heel as easily as she'd like. If you had me, she'd have a win by proxy. Besides, she'd definitely know what you were up to; I'm sure of that," he retorted with relative ease. On the topic of his ability to heal, Tae presumed it connected to his method of strengthening. She was definitely on the right track. Before doing anything else, Yugi retrieved a potion from inventory and held it between the doctor and himself. "It's these. They'll work as long as I'm not in the red, so to speak. Same goes for anyone else who needs one," he said while shaking the potion bottle. For his stats, Tae spoke of Strength and Perception as viable targets, further advising Endurance because intercourse with S-ranks had notably claimed some lives in this world. "Status," he whispered. Yugi would dump ten points into each of those three stats while addressing another matter. "S-ranks, huh? How much to survive against you? There's no other S-rank I've got my eye on right now," he said. With that, the stat allocation was done. Tae would be able to see the advancement of his musculature in real time, rapid though the shift was. Overall, Yugi would seem as if he'd spent another six months in a rough gym.

At the same time, Kaito was parking the car outside of Leblanc. Once he and Makima were still, she asked if he could get a better look inside. He'd been around long enough to know that wasn't really a question. Makima asking someone if they could do something was generally accepted as a gentle demand to do what she was asking about. He picked up a laptop from the backseat, using it to immediately tap into CCTV in the immediate area. He looked between the screen and the café for several moments before reaching a conclusion. "I have visual, but no one is in sight downstairs. Looking again... Amamiya Ren's device and that blank spot are upstairs. No camera has a line of sight there."

[Apollymi]

Miko called the act of fellatio from her standing perspective with hair gripping and face fucking... aggressive head pats. Such a thing wasn't likely to make sense outside of her own head but the lad sitting with her was one who seemed to get it after only a moment of thought. "Sou ka, I didn't expect anyone to understand that without being part of it first♪~" she chirped happily. From what she understood it was definitely enjoyable from both sides. What was more, boob hats done from the perspective of standing were things not given to this particular young man. Miko could understand that, he was quite tall, but he did have the sitting ones. "Hm, the sitting ones are nice too. Especially with the extra leaning," Miko decided knowing what she liked to receive and also figuring out what she could give. Ah speaking of giving, Miko was direct as she always would be, but maybe taken with way more excitement than normal people gave. She found as she tried to sit in this young man's lap and found him almost anticipatorily trying to remove his pants. "Waaah♪~ You're really excitable Amamiya-kun♪~" she made that little noise while getting a feel for his cock and becoming quite enthused by the bulge itself. 'I haven't missed yet♪!~' Miko thought happily. "Still, if you pulled it out now, I'd lose track of everything else for a while... and I'm trying to show you mine, since you showed me yours~" she said cheerfully. She would be allowing him to search that huge list of hers, while she happily occupied his personal space, as she quite enjoyed doing in general.

Meanwhile, there was a casual conversation going on between Tae and her newest patient/experimental subject. "Well, she knows what everyone is up to, that's kind of her thing~" was all Tae had to say about any of that. He might not see that woman as a problem, but Tae knew a certain set of truths, which was, that woman was more of a problem if she couldn't control something than she was if she could. Soon enough though, something else was attracting her attention, the appearance of a potion bottle and the idea that something like that could be used to bring the lad's health up from it. "Where did you get that?" an immediate question of pure scientific interest and curiosity, she reached for, it, she needed to study it, run it through several processes and find how how it was made. As for his question she could answer that while trying and perhaps failing to do what she wanted, "S-ranks become basically inhuman. Well, all people with Mana in their bodies are less human than those without. The difference in strength alone makes it so that even an E-rank is almost impossible to hurt with regular weapons, if that clears it up," she explained briefly the difference in physicality. "As for myself... my physical parameters are mostly average, except for my Endurance. Everything else, including my Class Skill are rated S... so if you don't want to be seriously injured you'd need to be within a couple of ranks or be prepared to take serious damage," she explained gently.

Meanwhile, Makima was asking questions and having them intepreted as 'gentle orders' that was probably the right way to do things. She didn't like waiting or excuses. Beyond that Kaito was indeed capable enough to look into the store from some close, but not get eyes on the lad upstairs and his guest. "Sou ka, well... if no one else is there, we're going in. Unlock the door," she said getting out of the car and going to stand by the entrance. She'd be approaching the pair inside directly not waiting for them to prepare or anything of the sort.

[Bloodedge]

Sadly, Ren had misinterpreted Miko's intention of sitting on his dick. He'd taken it either more literally or less, depending on one's outlook... but he definitely hoped she meant sitting with it inside her. Alas, that was not the case. She called him excitable. Was he? Well, yes... but if he had to comment, Ren would say he was just being dumb. "I uh... misread a sign," he admitted. According to the lass herself, removing his cock would mean she'd lose track of all other things. Ren didn't envision a negative in that. "Would that be bad?" he asked. That screen of hers was visible, and he was looking at it... but he was also already throbbing beneath her with unrivaled ferocity. "Well I've already seen you showering," he said as if alluding to another point of fairness. Ah, but there was something else: a reason to pause. Something overwhelmingly powerful was in the area, and it was only getting closer by the moment. In actuality, Kaito was already picking the lock downstairs, stepping aside to let that oppressive presence into Leblanc. By then, Ren was stunned silent and motionless. "Uh... was the detective coming back?"

Tae reinforced the idea that Shido Makima knew of everyone's dealings. That sort of person was another type Yugi needed access to. "What are the chances she's irrationally hot? Like, let's say you're a ten ─ which is lowballing by the way. Where would she be?" he wondered as a point of genuine curiosity. If the System gave him a route for that woman, he'd take it in a heartbeat... but there was only so much pretending Yugi could do. For instance, his response to Tae's question about that materialized potion was technically just the truth played off as a joke. "Magic shop~" he said. Yugi would let her take that potion as she wished... but he knew the end result. She could claim it, but shortly after leaving his hand, it would vanish. "Yeah, that's how that works. It'll change eventually, but there's no way to force it," he explained loosely. Past that, Yugi learned something else. Even an E-rank Hunter couldn't be harmed by conventional means. With that being the case, and knowing what Miko had been up to with a very active S-rank Hunter, he didn't fear interacting with this woman. Her raw power was terrifying to rationalize, but he'd also felt worse... once. "Understood. I can handle you right now," he said confidently. "So, next test? I'm guessing you still need reason to believe. Or should I just whip it out right now?"

Ren had misinterpreted what Miko said, but she didn't take it badly. No, she had every intention of pursuing that sort of thing, she simply thought to take a bit more time with it than normal. "Iia, that interpretation wasn't wrong, just... mistimed♪~" Miko decided. It was obvious, they were planning some sort of sexual activity they might as well both be as honest and open as possible. As for the badness of Miko losing track of everything else, "Well, not bad... I always enjoy what's happening when I hyper-fixate, but I might not be able to say much for a while♪~" Miko flirted logically. Her own desires would have her mouth filled first and foremost and everything else following her other desires. Beyond that he'd seen her showering and she could feel his cock throbbing beneath her, she shifted on top of it, rolling her hips comfortably along its stiffness. "You did see me showering, I suppose it would only be fair if I saw..." Miko paused her thought processes. There was a sound, almost imperceptible, like a gentle clicking. But not like a key turning in a lock.... "Someone's here," she murmured softly. Was it the detective? "Iia, he was off to work on the orders he was given. He forgot it because of them," Miko asserted. Of course, she could hear it now, the measured footsteps of the woman's heels clicking against the floor. As she looked around a resturant that was closed but seemed to have been cleaned up for the night. Except for the one cellphone on the counter with the little note in neat handwriting. "Sou ka, he really did forget it..." Makima uttered as she continued walking straight towards the back. The oppressive weight of her presence slowly but surely ascending the steps. "Uhh... she's definitely coming up the stairs." Miko mentioned, knowing by the sound of footsteps and voice that it was a woman headed up to see them. Actually, she'd heard that voice before too, on that same phone call.

Meanwhile, Tae would be surprised. Mostly by the lad's lack of knowledge in this moment. He questioned the hotness of one Shido Makima. And in turn Tae's eyes widened because she was just aghast that it was possible someone didn't know who that woman was or what she looked like. "First of all... she might be one of the most attractive adult women on the entire planet. 15 outta 10 easy," she said firmly. "Second of all, where have you been for the last year that you don't know who she is?" she questioned directly. There was no way a Japanese citizen shouldn't have been able to identify that woman at random. Meanwhile, that potion would be disappearing form her hand, pretty much as soon as the lad let go of it. "Fuck! What kind of bullshit is that!" she exclaimed. It was frustrating at best. What kind of world gave access to a magical item shop to a kid who was just trying to convince adult women to have sex with him? "Ugh, stupid. That's stupid." she said immediately, seeming to be slightly annoyed. Whatever the case, she added a proverbial drop in her bucket of nonsense. Whatever the case, this lad thought he was capable of taking her, she scoffed at his audacity. "If you've finished alotting your stats... I'll run a second test. I don't need to see your dick or anything... keep your pants on," she said while shaking her head. She was content to run the same set of tests from before and record any changes or lack there of, for the sake of seeing if his baseline actually changed. As such her finger went up, a little glowing ball of mana at the tip of it, and she began the eye test once more. This time, down, up, right, left, inverse figure eight, cross, circle.... intent to follow the movement of his eyes and observe.

Ren hadn't made a mistake; he'd just been a little early. From the sound of things, sex was precisely what Miko intended to pursue. She didn't mind the idea of abandoning everything else to dive right in, but her ability to speak would be lost for some time. Was that an implication of her wanting to be wrecked? Or was there perhaps another devious meaning to take from that? Time would tell... but first, interruption. Something incredibly powerful and undoubtedly S-rank was close ─ very close. According to Miko, it wasn't likely to be Detective Akechi. Whoever or whatever it was, they were coming. Even Ren could hear the click of heels on hardwood floor when they neared and climbed the stairs. A woman that strong? He only knew of a few who could be anywhere near here. "I can't fight that," was all he could say. In truth, Ren wouldn't have even been able to fight the male walking behind that presence ─ not that he could be sensed past the overwhelming might leading the way.

Meanwhile, Yugi was hearing claims about that very same imposing woman. 15/10 was the rating Tae gave her, calling the chairwoman one of the most attractive adult women in the world. The name Shido didn't ring a bell for Yugi, though. Regardless, her relevance was only noted over the past year ─ a year he'd been missing. Where had he been to not know who Shido Makima was? "On a date. A longer date than what it felt like," he answered simply. Ah, but he now knew Makima was a very attractive individual. Surely the System wouldn't be such a prick that it kept that route from him, right? Well, it was enough of one to keep him from passing items to those he hadn't bonded with to a certain extent ─ something Tae was very dissatisfied by. "It's so fucking dumb, right?! Like I can't even decide who I give my own shit to. I paid my own hard-earned, imaginary money for that shit!" he complained right alongside the doctor. Oh well. It was time for the second test. Tae would begin with another ball of mana on her finger. Yugi readied himself to follow along, albeit with some very noteworthy differences now. For starters, the incidental mana that would flow into his eyes was less than before. Beyond that... down, up, left... his eyes moved to follow along perfectly, until they shifted right just a tiny bit ahead of her perspective's left movement. By the time she performed that figure eight, his eyes were already completing it and moving into the cross, only to complete an inverse circle just before her cross was finished. He'd already seen the movements, just a fraction of a second before they were made. When the his eyes stopped moving, he managed to see that last maneuver twice ─ the second time when Tae actually performed it. "Huh. Did you do a weird, or was that me frying my brain?"
