Hide would slowly turn his attention away from the feline and back to the chatter about the vampires. He clutches onto his cup of orange juice for a few moments before tossing his head back and downing the remains of the pulpy juice. He lightly shakes his head, now just holding onto the cup while he listens to them for. Everyone seemed so strongly in favor of just going in to kill them. He wanted to argue against them, he really did, but they were all right... they needed to be stopped. "We need to figure out what we are going up against before we just rush in headfirst to slaughter. We need to find out what kind we are going against, if we run in prepared for one thing and not the other, we will end up being the ones being slaughtered." Quickly he changes his focus though from the topic, trying not to think too hard about how well this situation could go for him. While he could deal with vampires easier than most, if things got to bad and he had to use his mark, he might as well sign his own death warrant. 

"...Can I pet that?" Hide asks simply, looking at the girl and her pet tiger. He couldn't quite help himself now, especially since she said the creature was safe. And though he did not know her, if she could take the large feline out through the city without any problems, he was going to trust her that the feline was 'safe'. He might have been dead serious a few moments before, but now there was a large smile on his face, giving him a rather child-like appearance now that he had more color on his face after having finished his orange juice. "I, uh, like cats." He looks at the tiger. "Of all kinds."
