Chapter 395: Nira chair
Once the pair had suitably tested the stones, and finding they could be used three tis before needing a recharge regardless of the distance, the girls wrote their final report for the day and headed through the teleporter and then back to Kamiko's ho. They didn't really talk about it, but when Kat grabbed Kamiko's hand while using the teleporters they understood.
As Kamiko opened the door and lead Kat inside, she spied sobody sitting in the corner. The chair was leaning back against the wall, balanced on the demon in questions heel. She had seafoam green hair and a puffy coat on that you'd wear during the winter. It was bright pink like Kamiko's hair and matched well with the demon's long seafoam green hair.
Her horns stood out amongst the hair as it wasn't done up at all, flowing freely down to about her shoulder blades. What Kat had missed in the painting, was that she had tiny wings on her back just like Kamiko, and now Kat thought about it, likely the rest of the family as well, though she'd have to wait and confirm that.
The final notable detail, was her eyes. Whereas Kamiko had a cross that split only part of her eye, the won in front of her had it running across every visible section, and perhaps more that wasn't. It was a bright gold line that split the eye into four quadrants, but seeing her in real life, proved that it wasn't just a stationary crossed. Her eyes seed to spin slowly in their sockets.
"Oh? Who is this?" asked the demon Kat knew had to be Kamiko's mother. When she spoke, it was with almost the sa strange effect Boss had. It was layered, as if there were multiple people speaking from the sa mouth. Both were soothing voices that made you think of a duet in harmony. The higher voice was soft, and pleasant on the ears, while the lower was comforting like a warm blanket.
Overall, it was a strange experience. "This is my friend Kat!" said Kamiko happily. "I t her when we were waiting for our punishnt."
Kamiko's mother smiled and let the chair fall forward before placing the teacup she had in her hands down on the table. "Well, it's nice to see you found a friend finally. I'm not sure if my daughter has introduced properly or not, but if she hasn't please just call Nira."
Nira held out what looked like a carefully manicured hand. The skin looked smooth, as was becoming standard for Kat, and she had nails that seed just a touch longer then would be convenient for delicate work that were a matching green with her hair.
When Kat placed her hand in Nira's a wave of hostile aura ramd into her. It was strange, the aura seed to be telling her it was fine to sleep, but her own aura of calm seed to stop it in place like an impenetrable wall.
Nira's eyebrow raised just the slightest amount, so small that even Kat with her enhanced senses wasn't entirely sure she had seen it or not. The pressure on Kat doubled then, showing that Nira had been going more than just easy on Kat, she was now at least trying a little.
Kat felt her jaw clench and her aura shake under the assault. It wasn't buckling, but she could feel herself being worn down. Her mind was starting to drift slightly, and Kat found herself wondering if the effort needed to keep her aura focused was actually less than just fighting off whatever effects Nira was trying to impress on her.
"MUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!" whined Kamiko, snapping Kat's concentration, and apparently Nira's as well.
Kat felt herself shaking her head just to clear her mind a little as she glanced at her friend, in doing so, she missed the quick pout that appeared on Nira's face. "What?" replied the demon in question innocently.
"Mu~um I've seen you introduce yourself to the triplets' friends more than enough tis to know what you were doing. Do you rember that poor girl Aslena brought ho once? She ran away crying Mum" said Kamiko
Nira shrugged an unrepentant look on her face. "I have no regrets. If that little wimp couldn't handle a little aura then she doesn't get to hang around with Aslena. Besides I was only so hard on her because she looked down her nose at ."
Kamiko's eyes narrowed. "Mum, the first ti you t that girl you were doing the gardening. Naked. She thought you were crazy!"
Nira stuck her tongue out before saying. "I didn't want to get my clothes dirty, it all slides off my skin so it's better that way!"
"Don't try that on Mum. Not only do I know that your clothes do that too, even if they didn't you could resummon them. That's not even considering the fact you have an apron specifically for gardening. You were just trying to scare the girl off" huffed Kamiko in response.
Nira shrugged again, still not finding Kamiko's argunts compelling. "That girl was no good I tell you. Did you hear she went on to steal Aslena's girlfriend at the ti?"
Kamiko groaned. "Mum that isn't what happened. Aslena wasn't dating Share at the ti. Just because she couldn't work up the courage to ask her out but acted like she had to everyone else doesn't an that Ekrakak swooping and grabbing her first is stealing."
Nira reached over and grabbed a small sip of tea. "It does when she goes on to dump Share like a week later. See. No good. I told you that. Besides Aslena's dating that lovely boy now… what's his na again?"
Kamiko rolled her eyes at her mother. Nira smirked back in response. Kamiko sighed and admitted. "I don't actually know. She won't tell anybody after what happened last ti she actually got a date."
"I stand by the triplets' decision to throw that one out. They tried hitting on three tis when Aslena wasn't around. Pretty sure they visited often hoping to catch alone. Sure I do look like her, I am well aware of whose genes ca out on top, but if you're dating her that's just rude. Personally, I think Aslena's horns put them off." Said Nira in response.
Kamiko bit her lip. "Ok, fine I'll give you that one. Still why don't you ever give the triplets' friends shit?"
"Oh, don't worry my little starlight. I gave them plenty of shit for it when they were younger. Now though, they give each other's friends shit before I get to them. I'm so proud." Said Nira wiping away a fake tear from her eye.
Kamiko groaned. "Oh, by the way" said Nira paying no attention to Kamiko's displeasure. "Did Kat stay here yesterday the other day?"
"Yup!" said Kamiko happily. "I was going to introduce her but nobody was around, and I didn't think you'd mind."
Nira grinned and said. "Well, I don't really mind, but I did notice that the guest bedroom hasn't been made up… do I need to get out the sharpened shovel for your father? Oh wait can I do it instead?"
Kamiko blushed scarlet, and Kat just tilted her head in confusion. "MUM! You know better than that! I would never… I an… I'm also not into girls… you know this. Eugh, why would you even…"
Nira giggled into her teacup, clearly enjoying her daughter's embarrassnt, perhaps a touch more than is healthy. "Well, I need to have so fun don't I? What about you my dear Kat, you seem rather unflustered"
*Well yeah? I an, your daughter is adorable but I'm not attracted to her. I'll give her so pats on the head, all the hugs she could want, and I'll probably be next in line with the shovel when she does find soone but I'm not sexually attracted to her.*
"I feel it's more likely I'll be next in line with the shovel when the ti cos rather than on the receiving end. I grew up in an orphanage and I'm just sort of used to taking care of people." Said Kat with a slight smile.
Nira nodded and finished off the rest of her tea. "Yes, I can see you weren't born a demon, so that's not terribly surprising." Kat's eyes widened in shock. "Oh, did you not ntion that to Kamiko? My apologies." Said a grinning Nira, knowing exactly what she'd done.
Kat however just stared back. "I had in fact told her, but how do you know?"
Nira stuck her tongue out and shrugged. "That's for to know, and for you to wonder for all ti. I shall take my secrets to my grave. Never shall they make it past my lips!"
"Yeah for like, two-hour max, and then you'll tell three of the other nurses and then onto the rest of the hospital" grumbled Kamiko.
