"She certainly might. And maybe I'll get a chance to patrol with him after dark, see if that reveals anything. From what you're saying it sounds like he might somehow be affected by emotions, but an argument could be made that he is just uncomfortable with them, and his dislike of humans makes it worse."
Her stomach growled. "And on that note, I'd better make myself some dinner." She carefully put the book on the counter far away from the cutting boards and any chance of a spill, and washed her hands. It was a fairly early dinner, but when her stomach called, she answered. Getting out the ingredients she'd purchased with her food allowance from the cupboard and fridge, she started to chop herbs and marinate a few breasts of chicken, adding a few more for good measure. "You can have some, if you're hungry, I really don't mind."
As the chicken sauteed, she wondered aloud, "A demon that doesn't smell like a demon, doesn't act like a demon, doesn't hunger like a demon... either he's much better at blending in than any I've ever seen, or he's simply a species that the book might not have." She shrugged, her back to Chou as she added more spices to the pan, and a little oil. "But I'm new to all this, so there could be subtle things I'm missing."
The sound of heels clacking on the ground preceded the appearance of Lilith, who peered critically in the cupboards and the fridge.
"It looks like you two got everything," she said slowly, double checking, "but if I find anything missing, there will be another trip in it for the two of you. A nasty one." She looked sternly at Eris, who smiled anxiously.
"We did our best!"
Lilith still didn't look welcoming, but from what she'd heard about her, Eris assumed she was just one of those people that really took a while to warm up to people. Gathering her courage, Eris ventured, "I know it's not exactly... kosher, but is there any way you might be able to give me a few clues as to what kind of demon Molyneux is?"
