Aurora’s fingers teased both the edges and the flat sides of the blades without hesitation once she knew that Sora wasn’t going to be withdrawing her hand or Quirk. Of course, the redhead would have some secrets of her own, that only made sense really, especially considering that she seemed to have a less-than-legal business operation going on. Aurora would hardly let a few standing secrets get in the way of them enjoying each other’s company. She grinned wider though as she felt Sora’s hand slowly grab around her waist, obviously reciprocating the friendly gesture that was looking more and more like it would lead to a very fun night for them both. This was confirmed by her comment that left much to the imagination, but it seemed that she had something to do first, and Aurora nodded and held up her hands, crossing her fingers.
“Here’s hopin’ that you have that free time. I don’t want tonight to end just yet.” And it was honestly true, not just for Aurora, her current persona, but for Rowan too. Being who she was, Rowan was a very social creature and very much enjoyed the company of those who were interesting, friendly, and attractive both in personality and physique. Because of what her Quirk was, she could have multiple relationships going on at the same time, and thanks to her enhanced mind, she could keep them organized and proper without much difficulty. But recently she found herself without any of those relationships, any of those connections, and she sorely missed them. It didn’t matter that she likely would never be able to open up to anyone completely… she craved that human connection because it made her feel more like a normal human being. Considering that Rowan’s base form was a genderless, featureless blue slime, that wasn’t always an easy thing to accomplish.
So Aurora gave the woman a gentle squeeze with her tail in a makeshift hug and began to patiently swirl the remainder of her drink the in glass she had between her fingers, watching the redhead quietly. “Don’t keep a girl waiting, either way…” she added finally, a seductive smile on her face as she watched and waited for the interaction between Sora and the barkeep Vik.

"Here's Hopin'." Sora echoed, tracing a finger across the small of the woman's back with a teasing grin. When Viktor reappeared from the back room he was carrying another bottle of whiskey, though it wasn't the same as what the pair had been enjoying thus far. "Don't have any more of the fancy stuff on hand, not exactly a high demand item at a ramen shop. This is the best we've got." He set down a lighter bottle of 7 year old single malt, which was still honestly far better than what Sora's budget usually afforded. "All good Vik, but I'm thinkin' it's time we deals with th' matter at hand." The man paused for a moment, glancing briefly at Aurora before nodding. "Right. Out back." Sora nodded in return, turning back to her companion with an apologetic smile and patting the tail that clung to her waist. "Sorry love, this bit's private. We'll only pop off for a minute though, promise."
After disengaging from the woman, Sora hopped off her stool and collected the duffel bag that still sat on the floor a few seats over. It made a rather distinctive clacking noise as she lifted it up and slung it on her back. She offered one last glance over her shoulder and then rounded the corner to head to the back of the shop. Viktor was already leaning against the wall with a fresh cigarette in his mouth we she got there. The scent of smoke made her nose crinkle and she shot the man a sharp glare; he should know better. When he turned to meet her gaze he almost immediately cursed and stubbed the thing out. "Shit, sorry. Been a long day." She didn't respond, simply dropping the duffle bag at his feet and folding her arms.
"So what'd ya find?"
"Nothing that's gonna make you happy." He said, scratching the back of his head as he bent down to open up the bag and inspect it's contents. Inside were several cases containing handguns, ammunition, bulletproof vests, and a selection of freshly fabricated knives. "Apparently you got real close to something just by random chance. Remember that last shipment you tracked down?" It took Sora a second to recall what he was talking about, the last hunt for Seto had taken a good while, so the memory wasn't exactly fresh. "Business rival a' mine, right? Bloke what had th' teleportin' body guard?" Viktor held up one of the knives to the light from the shop door, inspecting the blade for a second before giving a nod of approval. "That's right, guy's name was Ryuto. He was trying to offload your goods the night before actually. Some thug wannabe by the name of Ishi Hirohito was gonna buy the lot of it." Sora rolled her eyes; yet another idiot trying to play Yakuza and get their hands on a bunch of guns. Certainly nothing new there. "Alright, so he was 'bout t' make my job harder again, wass'at have t' do with anythin?"
"This Ishi kid apparently didn't have the cash to cover the purchase, so he negotiated a trade. If my sources are right, he got his hands on a recording of a certain individual carrying out some... less than tasteful acts. A certain individual that's connected to a certain famous organization." Sora's eyes narrowed. The first sniff of progress she'd had in tracking those bastards down in over a year, and she'd missed it. "Don't tell me this wanker had it stashed somewhere, 'cause 'e's not around t' do much talkin' anymore." Viktor shook his head. "Nah, apparently the deal went bad. Someone crashed their party and made off with the cash and the recording. Couldn't dig anything up on the ones that did it though, either not active in the usual networks or just not stupid enough to flaunt it. The best I can give you is that the deal went down in the usual spot down by the docks, whoever took it had to be local, because Ryuto called in a bunch of favors and had people watching the surrounding districts. Never showed up anywhere else."
"So what you're tellin' me, is that there's a lead somewheres out there, but we got no bloody clue who made off with it?" Viktor shrugged, zipping the bag back up. "Basically. Only witnesses we've got said something about a blue flash and someone with extra arms. Not exactly much to go off of." Sora stroked her chin, staring off thoughtfully into space for a few long seconds before abruptly breaking into a shrug. "Right then! Better than nothin' I 'spose. An' more than we've had in a long time. I can go check out th' location, but sounds like we jus' gotta wait a tick. I'm fine keepin' our arrangement goin' if you are in th' mean time." Viktor chuckled softly at the dramatic shift in the vigilante's mood. "Yeah, I'll send you a new order if I come across anything else. I'm assuming you don't need any extra jobs for the night either?"
"Nah, evenin's lookin' t' be right shiny already." Sora said with a broad grin. "I've heard. I'd tell you to be careful with that one, but you're you."
"Right you are." Sora replied with a chuckle, giving the shop owner a wave over her shoulder as she made her way back around to the front of the building. Returning to Aurora, she casually leaned back against the counter rather than taking her seat again. "Now that weren't too bad, was it? An' would ya know it's lookin' like me evenin' is wide open." She said, emerald eyes alight with a mischievous glint.

Aurora could feel the finger trace along her spine and smiled, giving her a gentle squeeze with her tail and look towards the new bottle of whiskey. The apology he gave was waved off. “Not a problem at all, Chef. Each year and brand has their own unique flavor, and I simply enjoy trying them all.” The use of the nickname and title of ‘chef’ was something relatively profound; she didn’t give that title to all too many people, but it meant that she considered the food and drink he provided as very good. Granted, it wasn’t the absolute top marks, but still a pretty good grade coming from a food critic. She gave a makeshift pout as Sora slowly pulled away to take care of her business, knowing that it was something that she understood despite playing around at being hurt. “That’s fine… everyone has their secrets.” She certainly did… prying would make her a hypocrite. Left to her own devices, Aurora uncorked the new bottle of whiskey and took a deep swig straight from the bottle, enjoying the flavor thoroughly before refilling both of their glasses for when Sora returned. She could have easily snuck over there and listened in and none of them would be the wiser; stealth was a definite part of her skillset, but respecting those boundaries, even if only for her own benefit and clear conscience, was something that she had to prioritize or her sense of decency would vanish. She already wrestled with her endless curiosity on a daily basis, she didn’t need to make that worse by loosening her morals that related to the subject. Waiting patiently, she decided to finish cleaning up, picking up the bowl that she had eaten out of early and noting there was a bit of broth left unconsumed in the bottom. Lifting the bowl slightly, she opened her mouth and let her forked tongue reach out nearly a foot long, and begin to lick the bowl clean just as Sora walked back in. Aurora didn’t stop, and instead only made eye contact with the redhead and continued to lick the bowl clean until she spoke, finally setting it down and letting the long tongue slowly recede into her mouth as she said her evening was open. “Well that truly is good to hear.” She slid the glass of whiskey over towards her and picked up her own. “To an evening of fun…” she said, raising her glass to perform a toast.

As Sora returned to her companion, she found the woman thoroghly cleaning up after her meal. When the red head announced her return however, it seemed that there was a fresh glass waiting for her, a fact that only made her grin grow wider. Sora really was starting to like this lady. Scooping up the glass that was passed her way, she proceeded to clink it off of Aurora's own without hesitation. "To an evenin' a' fun." She repeated, before shooting the whole thing down in one go. Even after the top shelf stuff that they'd been spoiled with, Viktor's second best didn't dissappoint. Maybe it didn't have the same subtle intricacies as the other bottle, but Sora was never one to sweat the details in the first place. Good drink was good drink. Maybe if she could get a big enough order she could actually enjoy such things on a more regular basis. There was probably some sort of deal she could work out with one of the shop's repeat customers...
But that was work for another day. For the moment there were more immediate matters to attend to. Setting down her now-empty glass, she locked eyes with Aurora and shot her a playful smirk. "So what'sis fun evenin' a' yours lookin' like anyway? A trip 'round th' town? A bit a' bar hoppin'? A spot a' dancin'? Findin' a bloody good brawl with some choice blokes? if that's your scene. Or..." She leaned in closer, setting a hand on top of Aurora's as she lowered her voice slightly. "...We could skip all th' theatre an jump straight t' that tour I promised ya earlier." With a soft chuckle and a wink she pulled back, returning to her lounging position against the counter. "Whad'ya say? I'm sure we could find us some proper entertainment either way."

Aurora downed her own glass in one go as well, sighing contentedly as she finished it and smiling widely. Refilling both of their glasses, she was planning to polish off the bottle before they left, but as Sora spoke, it appeared that she was up for some fun just as much as she was, and Aurora was more than willing to leave the bottle if it meant they could go and have some fun sooner than later. Her eyes were staring straight back into Sora’s as she licked her lips one more time, that forked tongue making another appearance, and she considered her options for a little bit. “I think that we go with the flow… and if we just so happen to wind up at your place or mine first, then so be it.” She flashed a devilish grin, fully making her intent obvious.
She had enjoyed Sora’s company and was more than willing to entertain the idea of a little evening romp with the woman as a means of testing the waters. Aurora, the persona that Rowan was wearing at the moment, was also the type to push for physical encounters of an intimate nature, and this meant that they would both be pleased. Considering that Rowan considered these physical interactions as a substantial method to bolster the liveliness of her otherwise busy, if boring, life, there simply was no need to hesitate. Now, she also knew that coming on a little too strong could sometimes overwhelm her potential partners, so she did make sure to leave a method for things to slow down as well, letting Sora have the choice of what they would do next. Either way, she was very much looking forward to whatever came next.
The pink-skinned woman had no idea what she was getting into, but that was half the fun.
