“Yeah, it all depends on if they want to help me or not. Or if they have info.” He smiled. “Humanoids like statues, portrait paintings, dolls, basically anything with a face. Do the old painting-eye-peepholes trick. It’s fun.”

A quick glance over his shoulder at the red wisp. “Oh, that’s just Rojo. Lesser demon, hangs out with me because I don’t know. Surprisingly noble for a demon. Hates guns. Got pretty miffed when he saw me bite it, and he’s been helping me get used to things.”

“Kaixo,” says the wisp.

The thief didn’t really understand what Rojo said, but he smiled, maybe a touch nervously, and bowed his head in greeting. He already became used to parallel versions of himself, so a ghost version didn’t bother him as much as a normal one might have, but he’s had very little experience with demons. If it’s been helping his doppelganger, though, then it should be fine.

“Nice to meet you. A noble demon with a relatively noble thief…” He hummed, then grinned as a hand easily slid into a pocket. “Sounds suiting. And I definitely have to agree with the sentiment on guns. Far too many people around who like to use them as well.”
