"I can't thank you enough, sir. I can't imagine what could have become of me had you not come to my rescue. But... I can't just be calling you "Handsome." You do have a name, don't you? Mine is Mira, and I expect you to use it well." She winked, a practiced gesture that, when accompanied by a somewhat-innocent-seeming smile, put forth a facade of a damsel who was just grateful to have been saved. It almost made up for the suggestive way she was dressed, though there was nothing that could be done about that until she got the chance to grab her traveling clothes from her hidden cache in the red light district of the city, a place which she could hardly visit while maintaining her more-innocent persona.

"Where now? Well, I was thinking I'd see what that girl was up to with that lovely little stone. I would be ever so pleased if you were to join me in seeing what she's up to..." Mira treated the lion-man to an earnest-looking smile, put forth with only the barest hint of amusement at how easily the young man had been ensnared. Well. It was hardly anything to complain about. The poor thing looked capable enough, and essentially guileless, so far as Mira could tell. He would do just fine. Who knew, he might even grow on her, so long as he didn't get himself killed first.
