Mao listened intently as Kyosuke explained his own origins, all the while he politely bit his tongue to keep from fussing about how monotonous the average human's life seemed to be in comparison to that of the extra species. The gratitude was nice, though Mao knew full well that he'd done nothing to help in the fight earlier, he still took it upon himself to bask in the warm fuzzy feeling in his gut. At least, he enjoyed it until he found himself jolting back from Kyosuke's rather impressive and admittedly uncomfortable display as he continued to voice his gratitude.

The monkey man stood and walked over to the human, his face was an unreadable slab as he crouched down. Mao's hand raised high into the air before it came down and swiftly delivered a light pop to the back of Kyosuke's head, "[color=00746b]Don't be dumb, da.[/color]" Mao stated in a surprisingly calm tone, "[color=00746b]Ya don't need to apologize for staying here Kyo-chan. I like to speak for everyone- well, me and Usami at least, when I say that you're our friend now. Friends watch each other's backs. S'only natural that we'd take care of you.[/color]". Mao's trademark grin returned to his face as he seized Kyosuke under his arms and lifted the human clear off of the floor almost no effort, "[color=00746b]Now let's get down to the Q&A part of this little meet and greet![/color]" he dropped propped Kyosuke back onto his feet and lept back a bit, "[color=00746b]So are there any questions you wanna ask us, or are we free to bombard you with questions. Any question is game![/color]". 

He leaned in a bit towards Kyosuke with a suggestive look on his face, "[color=00746b]Oh, and between you and me, I think Usami's even more "friendly" with you than I am, da.[/color]" he half whispered jokingly whilst waggling his eyebrows. His message having been said, Mao decided it would be in his best interest to position himself so that Kyosuke would act like a barrier in case Usami took offense to his statement. He may have only been teasing, however it was hard to tell what could set some on off, and  Mao wasn't really all that willing to risk being in the wererabbit's sights if he happened to anger her by mistake.
