She opens a single eye, and looks at herself.
"Ummm.....this isn't what you think....." She says.

she can feel the man's hands on her back, massaging in the oils and slowly working the knots and kinks out and slowly helping her relax while also helping the scales on her back better, removing the passive discomfort she'd been feeling since she stopped using lotion. after about ten minutes of relaxation he pats her shoulder and leaves her the bottle of oils before walking out, saying "you can get the rest and... maybe you can take tomorrow off for some relaxation but i still don't want you to leave the mansion without telling me where you're going"

"I take it this discussion happens a lot." I say

he remains turned away from her as he seems to take an oddly long amount of time digging through his pouches looking the oils, giving her plenty of time to get comfortable
kishin asura said
"Whoa..." I say
kishin asura said
I walk in and look around
Tyki said
"that's why locks are always a wonderful investment" he says with a small chuckle, showing a bit of emotion despite his normally calm exterior, as if beginning to trust in her enough to start showing emotion. the man turns around to dig in a pouch as he asks "mind taking your shirt off and laying on your stomach? i've got some oils you only need to apply every week or so and they'll take care of your scales, but the back's always a pain in the ass when i do treatments on myself..." the man trails off as if he thought he were babbling and knew that she knew where he was going with that

I take a few steps back

"it's because they get dry, think of it like putting lotion on those rough spots on your elbows. if you don't keep your scales moistened they'll get uncomfortable" he says evenly before pausing she can tell he's studying her, thinking before saying "and i like them personally, makes you unique".he pauses a bit, finishing the rice ball before asking "want me to show you some tricks to help make them a bit more comfortable?" as he rummages in a pouch, grabbing a small scroll with snake decorations on it's border before seeming to remember something and grabbing another, plainer scroll with the word "translation dictionary" written along the border for a title. he then sets them aside and asks "you ever taken the time to take care of your scales?"
Tyki said
"tell you what, how about i teach you that trick i use for my feathers?" he offers, rubbing her shoulder in a small effort convey that he's here for her as a teacher and a friend if she needs it
