“Yeah, it's weird. I try not to think about it.” He chuckles lightly as Aoba blushes, his smile once more shifting into something less than a smile expression of happiness. [i]'He is so cute when it comes to being close to me. I like the reaction, but I hope he's careful about showing that face around others. There are plenty humans, or demons for that matter, who would find him irresistible with that adorable flush. . . .'[/i] Those soft little hands grasping at his arm makes him smile wider and he lets out a sigh. He looks to Aoba when his voice trails off, but since he doesn't actually try to engage the demon in conversation Kuro stays silent and just walks with the angel pulled gently against his hip.

When town comes into sight and Aoba almost bounces out of his grasp Kuro tenses, sending his senses out to make sure there are no threats in the area. [i]'The last thing we need if for him to fall right into a demon's greedy paws just because he doesn't know any better'[/i] His chest swells a bit as he stands a little taller, barely glancing as Aoba as he returns to his side. He looks around carefully, his senses working overtime, but after only half a minute he relaxes. [i]'There's no one, demonic at least, around that would mess with me'[/i] He smiles at this and looks down as Aoba questions him. “I think we'll get the supplies first, then order the truck, and while they are loading it we can head over to the cheap clothing store and pick you up some nice stuff. It may be cheap, but it will last you until you can afford better stuff. . .” His voice trails off as he tries to see if there is any way to get internet access in town. 

His eyes drift over a coffee shop with a “Wi-fi” sticker in the window and he does a mini fist-pump. [i]'Yes! A one horse town with wireless, perfect!'[/i] His head snaps to the side as Aoba jumps, his body tensing as he becomes hyper alert. However at the sight of the small critter Kuro's eyes soften and he smiles warmly at it. [i]'Puppy. . .'[/i] He's careful to stand back away from it, not wanting it to act up while Aoba pets it, but he turns to watch it walk off with it's owner before slipping his arm back around his little angel's waist. “Puppies are so cute. . .” He coughs lightly, pretending he didn't really just say that in front of someone other than Aoba, preferring to keep his soft side a secret. 

He chuckles at the angel as he seems to feel awkward around the human populace, but after a few minutes he pulls the smaller male into a hardware store. Motioning to shelves filled with all sorts of tools and housing supplies. “This is the stuff we need to look through to find what we need for repairs and construction. Mostly wood and wire, and some tools of course.” As a small town hardware store that caters to mostly farmers, the selection is wide and well stocked. There are only a few people in at this hour, the sales clerk talking to one of her regulars, laughing at something or another. Giving Aoba's hip a squeeze he murmurs, “So, want me to walk you through this, or should I just do the ordering for now and explain it all later?”
