He needed to work on his social graces, but given how few people he spoke to on a regular basis until recently it was probably the best it was going to be for awhile. Sina confirmed that several members of her team had been killed, likely in retaliation for something that they did. "That's horrible..." He sighed, glancing over to see her chomping down on the food he bought for her. Turns out she wasn't really interested in going to N'Toak without someone to show her around, and he was apparently the only one she trusted. Which he had mixed feelings about. On the one hand, she was a murderer, on the other hand she was clearly not aware of just how dangerous what she was doing until now.
"Believe me, I want to get you out of here, but I've kinda flaked on my team enough as it is." Though he'd be lying if he thought it was solely for her own safety, a large part of it was ensuring that she wouldn't be running out tearing humans apart just because she thought it was fun. Some part of him was... happy? Happy that Sina got a taste that what they were doing wasn't a game? The little amount of smugness that he got from that, coupled with the fact that she admitted he was right only bolstered it. Then she turned right back around saying that she shouldn't even bother being sad because "it was just a bunch of scaleless." "Just a bunch of scaleless, huh? Sina, if that were really the case, you wouldn't be so broken up about them dying." She clearly cared about them to some degree, even if she wouldn't admit it.
Her rambling about what happened, something about the Mafia, some people named Sebastian and Alexis and a mansion? "You spent quite a bit of time around them, and you cared about them. You're really trying to not show it, but it's okay to feel sad about what happened." Hopefully she wouldn't go into detail with it. He slightly shuddered at the thought of gore. "Your friends, and don't try to deny that they weren't your friends, people you did care about, are gone and you feel there wasn't anything you could have done about it." If nothing else, at least she wasn't nearly as much as a sociopath as she implied she was. "I just. I'm sorry for what happened. Really." He reached over and put his hand on her shoulder. "As for ideas. Well... Uh. You're noooot technically the first of our kind that I met. I met a brother and sister who were living here. They're the ones who got me and my family into N'Toak."
It was probably best to leave out any details that had to do with Kaban. Lest she start fondling over how his inane choices caused a huge amount of trouble. "They lived in a house a good bit away. The sister, her name is Onu, enchanted the place to the moon and back. I don't know the specifics, but it should be more than enough to keep you safe and hidden until..."
She wanted a joke? Okay. "We... Well. We kinda started a war with Warwolf last night."
