Ah So He Knows? Interesting. He Was At Least An Intelligent Enough Man To Say It Relatively Quietly,

ah— so he knows? interesting. he was at least an intelligent enough man to say it relatively quietly, too. soryn wonders, has he had experience with demons? he seems to be able to recognize one right off the bat, but in soryn's own defense, despite how much he wishes to blend in while living amongst humans, he still wanted to stand out as something not entirely human himself. maybe he wanted people to wonder, to do a double take when they see him. it amused him the most when kids stopped to stare and their parents quickly ushered them along, telling them to not give someone like soryn the time of day.

in the end, no one else knew. coworkers, boss, friends, no one. until now, that is. soryn finds himself curious, wanting to know more, wanting to know how this man figured it out after laying eyes on him.

" brats, huh? " soryn asks with a laugh now, his gaze moving back to the two young boys playing on the playground, climbing all over it and laughing as they chase after each other. his amused smile returns to his lips and he looks back to the priest. " here i assumed all priests took a vow of celibacy. "

negotiating with toddlers was certainly an experience, and, if he had to make a comparison, it would be like negotiating with demons. if not worse. the boys were clamoring to go to the park as soon as the day began. initially, shiro said no, but how could he possibly resist the looks on their faces? with a heavy sigh, he told the twins to finish their lunch, promising him that they would help clean up the chapel and courtyard when they returned home. and they better behave.

the priest walked along the sidewalk with his sons, both hands occupied by holding their much smaller ones so they didn't stray from him, or get snatched up. he did always tell rin that no one would want to snatch him up, he's too much of a hassle sometimes.

reaching the gates of the park, he released their hands and told them to go knock themselves out. he surveyed the area for a moment, watching as the boys made their way towards the playground equipment with the other children before his eyes moved towards the benches. with a quirked brow, and an amused smirk curling the edge of his mouth, he stalked over. the closer he got to the other, the more the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. a demon. casually sitting in the park, eating their lunch, certainly a sight to see. and he didn't miss how beautiful they were, either.

he seated himself politely next to the demon, moving to fish his pack of cigarettes out of his pocket alongside a lighter.

" pfft -- " shiro sputtered out a slight laugh as he lit his cigarette, leaning back against the bench while pushing his lighter back into his breast pocket, " you and i both know the souls of demons can't be saved, " right out with it he was, making sure to speak evenly, but low enough that no other parent in the park could hear him, " i'm not here for business, just had to take my little brats here to get their energy out. " that sentence was said with a great fondness in his tone, the man throwing an arm over the back of the bench while he took a long drag from his cigarette.

good, good, they can start returning these, th— illegal roombas? illegal? agatha turns, flabbergasted. " cash, w-w-where o-on earth could you have gotten i-illegal roombas? " how would they even go about returning those?! she waves her hands. " cash. cash. babe, i-i th-think illegal roombas are also n-not the way to go. " agatha is fairly certain a guard dog or a security system would be far more helpful than... roombas.

   “hm…  maybe  you're  right.”  cash  thinks  it  through,  pursing  his  lips.  “i  do  have  the  illegal  roombas  i  could  hook  up  as  well.  maybe  seventeen  isn't  an  intimidating  enough  number.”  he's  very  much  considering  now  taking  out  the  robbed  shipment  of  roombas.  before  he  legally  bought  seventeen.  “maybe  the  legal  roombas  aren't  enough.  you  have  such  a  good  point.”  he  nods  to  himself  -  though  he's  completely  missed  her  point.

" do you ever go onto wikipedia because you were curious about something, and then there's a link that sparks your curiosity and you click on it because you want to know more and then it just leads you down this rabbit hole of topics and you're so far away from what you were originally looking up? "

" oh, you poor thing, it's okay. " she lightly pats the top of the roomba and re-orients the machine. for some reason, it keeps bumping into this one table leg. maybe something was wrong with it? agatha isn't sure. " i hope i don't have to return this... it's just so cute! "
