She was...small.
There was a sudden fit of curiosity...Humans, they were so striking in their appearance given their more standardized looks, as if they were merely copied from a machine and while never quite the same in personality, their desires, emotions and bodies all felt the same. Be they rotund, thin, happy or sad, knowledgeable or not, they had the same problems throughout their history and the same ideas every now and again, repeating cycles. Ironically, Aurora never really saw them more than just wildlife, like they were merely a part of Human World's little cycle of life, death, misery and love, always enslaved to what heeded them their and then a slave yet again to wherever they were sent in the afterlife...They were, in another word, unnoticeable.
But Aurora's eyes lit up, curiosity replaced with excitement, she was even more energized with her tail wagging a bit faster like she just saw something she always desired yet never found. Demons always had their awareness of sins and failures, of constant pain living in the endless flames of Hell, but seemingly never afflicted like it the same way humans were- there was resilience in the constant terror. The pain and torment normalized to a point where the most horrific events were a boring repetition. But humans, normal humans were never normalized to it. In turn, Starla also seemed oblivious to it all, but she had something Aurora never saw even in most humans, something Demons lacked a lot of in her eyes as well... Innocence.
"Why hello there!" She may have been a tall creature, body in fur with sharp teeth and claws, but her voice was warm and joyous, as if meeting family "Rather a kind offer from someone so small, cute and happy." She leaned over a bit, eagerly getting closer to the charming human and if a light had been behind her, a long, wolf-shaped shadow would've casted over Starla. "So brave too, especially for such a small human, approaching such a big wolf like me...A bit like little red riding hood." What wasn't heard was her murmur "I think...?" after she spoke, Human fairy tales were something her family was aware of, fond of collecting even! But Aurora found them as boring as...well everything else not involving high-octane pleasure. "...Hope I got that right. Wait, didn't that involve someone getting eaten?"
She stopped her train of thought- albeit probably unintentionally, given how distracting the human was -and then pinched Starla's cheek and kept talking "I'll give you my bags, but I hope you don't hurt yourself carrying them, someone so sweet like you doesn't deserve to be hurt carrying something so heavy! And maybe you and I will talk later, okay? Hell is a dangerous place for humans and I wouldn't want you to run into anyone bad!" Despite making it seem like others posed a threat, Aurora actually smirked a bit, maybe if she instilled some fear into the humans, make them afraid of other demonic entities living here, she'd have more of their delicate, frail lives to herself...Wouldn't be the first time manipulating someone into paranoia drove them to her.
She slipped off the backpack and placed a suitcase right in front of Starla, though it seemed a tad reluctant- there arose a genuine concern she wouldn't be able to carry both! Nonetheless, she trusted that this servant of innocence would be strong enough.
Aurora then looked up, scanning the room a bit to gather who the other occupants were...
So much humanity, if it hadn't been for her past interaction, the wolf would've been already harassing the others! Especially since it seemed there was another frail and small women who had been here, along with two men, one who seemed to be a sibling of sorts to the other woman? "Interesting." She thought, they didn't seem to be getting along well...Devious thoughts clouded her demonic head, but she tried to stay focus- studying the other one. This man was seemingly...Japanese, perhaps? Hopefully all that time studying humans had her guesses right. Her thoughts repeated the same word- interested yet again in how there were so many different people here, he was trailed by a demoness as well it seemed. Then there were two other humans, but she couldn't quite get a read on them yet...
And so the demons were fascinating as well! Fittingly demonic, social and aggressive, perhaps flirty, at least relative to the poor and unfortunate human victims in the room. They had histories too it seemed guessing from the dialogue, it didn't fascinate Aurora as much as the humans but, the demonic guests were a very wild bunch, a bit on the more exotic side too- competition perhaps. Always more competition.
But then there was that...thing that floated? Walked? It had was entangled in cloth, a unseeing creature laid beneath- or so presumed by the wolf -as the door stayed wide open long enough to let it seeming drift into the building. Seeing it come into view was like witnessing a bad omen come to life, a sheer emotional rollercoaster of disbelief, fear, then acceptance all at once, overwhelmed by just how damn ominous the thing seemed. Aurora had seen strange beasts, Hell had them, dealt with terrifying things too- sure, there is a lot of that in Hell. But whatever that cloth-draped creature was, there was no comparison to what she had encountered prior, it caused her to feel the opposite of how she felt with Starla- no, even worse than that, it filled her head with absolute dread.
After a minute of being caught off-guard by the strange entity, the wolf upright and eyes remaining locked on it, fearful, animalistic, as if waiting to see it move like prey watching a all-too hungry predator, fearful of it even flinching a little...
She turned her head suddenly, as if another force had grabbed the sides of her face and turned her to stare at literally anything else. In turn, she felt a sudden warmth return to her witnessing an astoundingly tiny demon giving quite a talking to another, presumed sibling. Well, he was, until he too had been looking about the room- Aurora then smiled, flashing her sharp teeth and waved happily at him, all-too ready to socialize again!
