Hide took a sip from his cup of tea, the perfect image of a well-mannered youth, complete with an outstretched pinky as the cup was tilted ever so slightly so as to let its contents be consumed. After doing so without a single drop spilt, he placed his cup of tea on the dainty little dish, and placed that dish and cup atop the daintly little tea table. He regarded the overexcitable fox woman next to him - no not Asuka, the [i]other[/i] overexcitable fox woman next to him - with a peculiar look. [color=bc8dbf]"Calm down. Let's not get excited here yet,"[/color] he interjected, grabbing on to one of the tails that Shi was using to conceal her lewd embarrassment. Was it an excuse to touch the fluffy tail? I mean, probably. There was definitely a non-zero chance. [color=bc8dbf]"I highly doubt the younger Volkov-chan and Yuuki-kun have surgically removed their kidenys and traded them like Y*gioh cards."[/color] He turned to Yuki the Russian, Shiso's tail still in hand, and asked, "...Or is there something I don't want to be aware of?" That said, Hide rested Shiso's tail on his lap like it was some kind of particularly large ferret, or maybe a fat but also somehow very lightweight cat or dog. He was even stroking it like it was one, too. Could've been worse though; he could've been creepy about it and started smelling it or worse. But he was not creepy. He was Hide. And so Shiso would remain unmolested. [color=bc8dbf]"You will not be using my family cafe as your base of operations,"[/color] he stated flatly, picking up and taking another sip of his hot beverage, [color=bc8dbf]"Use Asuka's. I know for a fact that her house is far larger and her parents don't live there much anymore."[/color] The unfortunate implications of his statement were either neglected or ignored, and quite honestly, it would likely look worse had he tried to defend it. [color=bc8dbf]"That aside,"[/color] he continued, casting his gaze aside on to the literal fox woman, [color=bc8dbf]"What will we be allowed to bring, and what will you bring for us? I like to be prepared."[/color]
