Never the less, she liked the sight. ''You have nice wings, best look after them as they are apart of you, just like the sun is apart of a flower's growth. They remind me of a crow's feathers, I love them birds. Most say they are bad luck, death welcoming. But they are not, they are more, protectors of the dead.''

''So, do you like being pampered Laetia?'' She'd then ask in turn.

Mokoto didn't hate or dislike Ace they just happened to be polar opposites and therefore naturally didn't get along but she made the effort as she did spend more of her time in the Cafe
seekng as the two were fine Ace walked back in when Mokoto called for her. the moment she was behind the counter Ace already had a bottle of sake and slid it down the counter for Mokoto not even bothering to watch it go as it never fell when she did so. soon her back was too Lateia as she began to make the girl her rasberry tea and soon that was done and she poired it gently in a cup her eyes as usual were kept closed the whole time. Ace finished and opened her eyes as she set the tea infront of Lateia a small smile played on her lips.

As Mokoto spoke toward Ace, Laetia looked back at the black hair she was next too. Hand reached out again to gently run a couple fingers through the tendrils. Softly her lips spread into a smile, still interested. Once she noticed Ace did not respond but drinks were being made, she looked back up to Mokoto. " Why would one take a bath in mud? Is it not the purpose of bathing to get clean? I....I do not understand what this all is you speak of." She slowly questioned. After a moment she looked at the steaming tea before her. Eyes widened as the smell slithered into her nostrils. Nose sucked it in, enjoying the rasberries. She smiled toward Ace, giving a slight nod. " Thank you." Hands reached out to wrap around the warm cup. At first she enjoyed the warmth, but determined she was too thirsty to let it linger. Cup raised to her lips as a small sip of the liquid was taken in and swallowed. Eyes closed as each tastebud took it the varying tastes. Wings fluttered gently in place once the liquid was past her throat. Eyes opened once again and looked to Ace, " It is quite delicious, thank you." Legs stretched out a moment, as if allowing the warmth of the liquid to reach them, then she replaced them back to her chest. Cup was placed back upon the table, but hands stayed clasping it.
"ah your welcome Laetia" giving the girl a small smile. she then noticed that the human Ellie had been serving looked about to have a panic attack upon seeing Laetia's black wings. Ace turned to face the girl again "i'd recommend you hid your wings for the moment don't want to scare off our only human customer" her voice light and a bit playful.
Ace then walked out from behind the bar and over to the human costumer "is everything alright Sir?" opening her eyes, their orange color seemed to swirl and shift to different shades of orange as she awaited Devons answer.
Devan glanced up to see a different person than before speaking to him. She was cute as well. He smiled up at her, a bit happy he understood everything she had said to him. "Yes, I am. I'm simply waiting for my order." he responded.
...she has beautiful eyes.
(Short, but fuck it. I'll reply instantly and keep my eye out for a reply from you, if you'd be willing to continue.....though I guess it'd just be you and me.)
"well alright it should be done by now so ill go and take it out for you" giving Devan a small smile. her eyes closed once more Ace walked back to the bar and reached behind it for a tray then walked to the kitchen to pick up Devans order.
she found it on a counter top surprisingly still warm and placed it in the center of the tray, walking back out. Ace held the tray up with perfect balance walking over to Devan, when she got to his table Ace placed the bowl down lightly and brought the tray up to her chest.
"if there is anything else you wish just call for me i'll be over by the bar" giving him a polite nod Ace returned to her usual position behind the bar wiping down the tray before placing it on the countertop in front of her. a few more people entered the café taking a few seats by the bar.
all them looked like bikers; big and rough looking. one of them a bear of a man with a scruffy beard winked at Ace, a barbed tail drifted behind him lazily to signify he too was a demon of some sort. "get me a cold one sweet heart" Ace nodded and instantly got to work not even paying attention to what she did. pouring the beer in three glass with a flourish Ace slid the bottles in front of them and they took it gratefully. after a while one by one they left until it was just scruffy beard who it seemed was going to pay.
when it was time to pay Ace held her hand out "you fee please" the man with the scruffy beard then grabbed her wrist "hey sweet heart you see I don't got money to pay for those cold ones so how bout this ill give you a night to make me happy and theres your fee" Ace stared at the biker with disgust "id rather die than sleep with a pig like you" glaring at the man.
this only angered scruffy beard as he slapped her then grabbed a fistful of her hair bringing her in for a nasty kiss. Ace could taste the alcohol on his breath and spit rubbing her mouth with disgust. "I suggest you leave before I throw you out" her voice dangerous scruffy beard only laughed at her "what are you gonna do huh you little whore, you gonna zap me with your damn voodoo demon magic" laughing at her. scruffy beard got up his glass still in his hands but was now flying across the room aimed for her head in a fit of rage. "huh do you know who I am bitch if I tell you to sleep with me then that's what your gonna do! tell me who here is gonna stop me huh who?" turning to the other customers who either looked away or left their bills on the table in a rush to not get involved in the fight that was very soon to happen.
*Smack*
Devan's head rose from his dish and to the sound that had entered his ears. He hated such a sound, because it was skin-on-skin contact which made the sound. This was confirmed when he saw a disgusting-looking biker that had locked lips with the unwilling waitress who had just served Devan himself.
He had probably made the biggest mistake in his life, that biker.
Devan stood up, much in contrast to the rest of the patrons of the cafe when the biker called everyone out. There would probably be a chance he would have feared the biker if he had known the tail was real, and that he was a demon, but he did not. To Matthews, that biker was scum of the Earth, but just a human being too. It was always these guys that angered him more than anything else could.
"I will." he answered the biker, calmly. "If you don't leave right this moment, at least. You've hit a woman and demanded something of her that you are not allowed to. You may leave this place without any further trouble" he offered, though he knew and wanted the man to resist. "Or I may show you the door myself. Either way, please don't insult that woman again, nor should I see you touch her."
(Guess you got control of the biker :3)

he stared at the kid who just offered to die by his hands and burst out laughing "you really think you take me one you little bastard in your dreams" but he noticed the determined look in his eyes that said he was serious and he too became serious. "so you wanna fight kid then so be it be prepared to die right here and now" he sneered running at Devan.
(biker is all yours now just know that well human vs.Demon will be difficult but just know that this guy is an extremely weak demon so Devan should be on par with him somewhat)
Ace
she stared in shock that the human boy actually defended her a smile twitched at the corners of her lips but she knew what the outcome would be if the demon decided to go all out and transformed completely. but before she could put a stop to it the demon ran at Devan ready to kill him, so Ace did the only thing she knew she could do without hurting the humans pride; she cast a simple but effective spell on Devan that would enhance his abilities enough to be on par with the demon 'I just hope its enough to much and I might kill the boy' Ace watched on with a solemn look on her face.
The demon did not exit his human guise while he threw a wild punch at Devan. Devan, able to see the punch easily, moved to the side, but was then caught in the chin by a really quick follow-up, causing him to stumble backwards a bit.
That punch hurt.... a lot.
Judging by his appearance, this Biker shouldn't have been so quick nor strong, but the blow hurt Devan much more than he anticipated. With that fact in mind, Devan returned a kick that seemed to go faster than normal - though it would be hard to tell because they were already very quick in the first place - to the Biker's dome, which was evaded.
....
....
....
After a few minutes, the fight ended. Devan had been hit in the gut and hurt more than he was predicting, but in the end, the Biker was on the floor, unconscious.
Devan dropped to his knee and coughed.
Ace breathed a sigh of relief glad that her magic worked and quickly erased it by gently placing her hand on Devans shoulder "are you alright sir, thank you for doing that but you should rest up here" taking him firmly by the arm Ace sat him at the bar while Ace concocted an herbal tea that should relieve him of his pain.
"here you go this should help" passing the tea to Devan, not only will it reduce the pain but also to relieve is body of any side her magic may have had.
She was unsure of what to do. That was until the male who was also at the bar decided to bark back at the demon biker. Laetia did not like what was going on and thus stayed in her position. Eyes looked around for the best exit if needed. The biker demon decided to stand and attack the male, whom liked human. This too confused her, to see a human ask to be attacked by a demon. However, despite the fight between the two the human made it out one top. Well, as on top as he could considering.
Wings stretched a bit, flapping a couple times to help her off the chair she was on. Feet landed gently upon the ground, walking her way over to the situation. Eyes looked at the unconscious demon biker, then to Devan, and on to Ace. She went over to poke the demon biker to see if he would move, which he thankfully did not. Feet carried her over to Devan and Ace, her voice emitting softly. " Are you well?" she asked simplistically. She looked between both of them for an answer.
He could tell that at the very least, he would have bruises on his gut and maybe a black left eye. Whomever that biker had been, he must be a good fighter to have caused Devan that much trouble, and Matthews himself even wondered if the biker was underestimating him, or if he was underestimating the biker. Guess he is still an amateur in that regard.
Devan looked up to see another woman (whom shared the common trait of being beautiful that this bar seemed to have). "I am." Devan answered, smiling through a bit of pain. It probably did not look as nice with the black eye, but maybe it would suffice. "Thank you for your concern, and I'm sorry about the commotion, but I don't appreciate people who don't appreciate other people." Devan paused for a moment before opening his eyes in realization of something.
"Oh," he began, sticking a hand out. "I am Devan, pleased to meet you."
Laetia did not let go of the male's hand. In fact, she continued holding it and looked all over his face. She was more or less focused upon the black eye that sat so prominent. She frowned momentarily at the idea of having one. " You should put something on that, Devan. It looks like it hurts. " She simply stated. She was not exactly for fighting, but she understood the situation. That did not mean she liked the effects of it.
she smiled warmly at Laetia's concern but frowned if just a little seeing the young girls wings flutter behind her 'geez doesn't anyone listen anymore' shaking her head a little.
"don't worry dear ill go get something for that" Ace bent down at the waist, her back facing them as she searched through her cupboards until she found a small baggy. standing straight Ace got some ice and poured it into the bag but one fell put and slipped down her cleavage. this made her yelp as she reached down to take the ice cube out, throwing it into the sink.
she then handed the ice bag to Devon "here this should lessen the swelling" folding her arms in front of her Ace leaned against the bar, her breast spilled over the countertop though she didn't seem to notice. "so do you always find the need to rescue a damsel in distress?" her tone teasing.
Were those mechanical wings she had? Laetia had hopped away from him and gave him a confused look for a few seconds before she actually took his hand. Then, she didn't even shake. Maybe hand-shaking was an American gesture, and they didn't know. Either way, Devan's face turned a bit red when he realized she never quite let go of him. "I'm glad I did not do something wro... "
How do you say that again? ......
"...bad. But there's no need to worry; I'm used to such things." he claimed, not confidently, more like just stating a fact. He didn't like to worry people, especially strangers, but much to his dismay, Ace had decided to go get him some ice. As she retrieved the ice for him, he heard an odd sound emitting from her, evoking a raised eyebrow. He couldn't see what had happened since she was turned away from him. Instead, he just sat there and waited until she was done, which wasn't long after she had begun. She handed him the bag and he took it, placing it on his bruised eye. "Thank you, I..." he moved his eyes upwards, where they should be, and after a very slight but noticable pause. "...I just don't like seeing people hurt other people, that's all."
Hopefully they would think the red on his face was from being punched there.
"i see then thank you, though i could have easily taken care of him so next time leave those things to me" Ace did indeed speak the truth, she could have easily taken the weak demon out without so much as moving a finger but that was if she used magic, a simple kick to the head would suffice.
"it is my bar after all its only right if i take care of any unwanted trash" smiling at Devons red face.
"If such things are a common occurance, I would suggest hiring a bouncer." he said, then listening to Laetia speak. "Please forgive me, but umm.... I don't think I heard this correctly." he began, embarrassed at his lack of total understanding for this language. "Did you say 'hume', or did I hear incorrectly?"
she looked on over to Laetia who indeed didnt look like she would be of much use in a fight "dont worry child im sure your good at something aint no one useless" patting Laetias head softly. Ace then heard his comment and guessed he must have thought she said that out of pride. this made her laugh "what a sterotypical human and no she meant human my dear. dont you see i am the bouncer of this café as well as the bartender. i didnt say that out of pride but out of truth youd be surprised at what us japanese woman can do" a sly smile on her face. Ace then turned around quickly grabbing a glass and filled it with vodka and something sweet smelling. she leaned back against the back counter glass in hand while her other arm was used as a prop for her elbow. "any other questions you would like answered before you embarrass yourself further?" raising one eye brow at Devon.
