♥ better than a pro hero! ♥ Serpent of the TOXIC Sea Where were they going? This area was familiar to the toxic fish of a teen, but it was tough to get a grip on at times and she made a request for a quick pit stop to drop things off at her house really quick before continuing on their adventure. It was a slummy part of town where it was clear folks who lived there struggled financially, even asking them to wait in the shabby lobby of that apartment complex that looked like it could fall apart at any minute. Yet, by some miracle, it remained all the same. Hifumi adamant about taking care of her little drop off since she wasn't sure how long she'd be gone, but her small, broken family was running out of food and she wanted them to have something nice to come home to. Things were hard for her guardians, but the managed well enough and she tried her best not to be a burden when possible. When she got back down, to the lobby, she was dolled up in a floral, off shoulder dress, but she had an under layer of white trash bags which were cut and styled beneath and long, pale blue latex gloves so she didn't make anything icky with her slime. It'd be tough to use her scales as a weapon in a pinch to protect her friends, but she could always spit in someone's face if need be to help them run! Gross, but whatever! Anywho, she was even wearing a pair of navy blue thigh highs that were spandex so they could breathe a little easier and dry off, finished with a black pair of scuffy mary janes. Spending time with two new friends and the fact that they were going to his grand parents house meant she shouldn't look like a hobo! What if they got mad at him for bringing a hobo into their home?! Red needed a place to call home and a proper roof over his head, a roof with consistent electricity to keep him warm on colder days. She...would have to figure that problem out on her own eventually soon, but that's okay! This was fine, everything was fine! Locking up the place before scampering back down, this was one of the few outfits she saved for special occasions...and trying to help her friend, Red, that was worth busting out the nicer looking clothes in her book! A little waist pouch hung at her hip as she happily rejoined Fion holding onto their sleepy little noodle cat child, following his lead to his grandparents house! The areas transitioned, becoming nicer bit by bit and the houses were getting bigger...like huuuuuuge! "Wowzers..." Squeaking that out beneath her breath, it was almost like they were little malls or something rather than houses from the ones she could see! So many of them had biiiiiiiiiiig fences, so tall that all she could see were the pretty roof tops! Once the trio stopped at a gate, her confusingly bright smile wiggled across her lips as she chirped out a question for the anime protagonist incarnate, "Fio-san, is this a mall, big store, oooooooor maybe a muuuuuseum? It definitely doesn't look like a house!" This place was on the older side for sure upon the sizable property, if this was Fion's house...Red was gonna have so much fun here! Well, even if it wasn't, little Red would still have fun and maybe learn something new too! |

So it was decided they'd stop by Fion's house to see if they could get picnic food from his mom which was very likely though he did realize his mom would likely be super curious about Hifumi. His mom had always been super worried but supportive over Fion though she will likely wonder who the random girl with him is since he rarely brought friends home let alone female ones. It seemed they were stopping at Hifumi's place first which Fion ended up waiting outside for her but he was worried abit cause the area looked kind of sketchy to him but she was on the more poor side so he understood it.
It wasn't the longest wait and when she got back she looked dressed alot nicer then her usual which meant she must be wearing her nicest clothes so Fion's family dont think she's homeless or something. "You look good in those clothes. mustn't dress like that often though right?"
Fion did think she looked really nice with those clothes on but he had some clothes being made for her that he thinks she'd absolutely love though he'd not be able to give her them for a few more days at least. He made sure Red was comfortable on his shoulder while they kept walking cause he wouldn't want the little guy to be uncomfortable.
They walked for awhile until getting to the part of town Fion's grandparents lived it was obvious only really wealthy people lived here the houses were all fairly big and some with an older look kind of like what you'd expect some shogun or something to live in. They eventually got to the gate which Fion pushed open and then looked towards Hifumi who he could hear talking. He wasn't too surprised at her reaction to the houses size it was massive and had many things you wouldn't expect in a house such as it's own dojo and even a large open air bath but it was a home. "Yeah it's fairly big house I suppose it has alot of things in it though we have a dojo, a large open air bath and I think we have a small shrine setup somewhere." Fion realized his house was likely considered a mansion but his grandpa was a really good business man and even had several students at his dojo he was one of the hardest working old men you could likely find.

♛ This way of travel was so much faster than just running around the city and ducking into alleyways. Being able to hitch a ride on someone was so useful! Why hadn't he thought of this before? He should have made nice with humans earlier! Especially if it meant he wouldn't have to worry about food or a place to stay. He could live comfortably if he just had pushed past his fears and trusted people. Maybe running away to this city was a good thing his actions could lead him to a happier lifestyle. If these two people were any indication of a good life then Red would be fine settling down with them.
They found themselves in a run-down building and Red was unsure if this was the place they lived. It felt like it was abandoned. This honestly wasn't that different for Red as it was basically what he lived in at times, but the two people he was with didn't look like the types to live in such an environment. Guess he judged their appearances too soon. Still, beggars couldn't be chooser and Red wanted to look around his new home, but he wouldn't have too long to try as the girl would return soon after. She looked different as she had changed her outfit. Red tilted his head at the girl in confusion. Why did she need to change clothes? They certainly didn't look like something that would be comfortable. Honestly Red didn't understand clothing it seemed very in the way of things. Humans were weird creatures.
Soon they would be walking again and as they got closer and closer to their destination the scenery would change. The buildings were getting more and more extravagant and Red was beginning to feel uncomfortable. He was getting flashbacks of when he was given away to the circus by his original owners. They lived in a giant place filled with multiple homes. No matter where you went the land was owned by them. It was a massive home and while it could have been a wonderful place it was a caged home for him. Red and his siblings were there simply for monetary gain and status wealth proof. It wasn't a nice place and though he didn't remember much of the life he lived there the time he had was still a scar on his heart. He never wanted to return to that place either much like the circus.
When they reached the gate of the estate Red watched as the boy's hand reached to open it and he quickly jumped into the coat of the boy. Hiding inside his outfit Red began to shake and his tail poofed up in fear. The entrance was almost the same as the one he saw leaving where he was born. Was it possible he was returning to his original home? He didn't remember seeing these two humans there, but then again he was quite young. What if his life was going to go full circle and he would just get sold to a circus again? Red didn't much like the idea of this being a possibility, but he also really liked these two humans. Would they take him back to his birthplace? Did they know he escaped the circus? What if that's why they were so friendly with him? Red wasn't sure and he began chirping erratically in fear. He didn't want to leave the warmth of the male's body, but he was visibly nervous to enter the estate. Red just wanted to live a peaceful life, not a stressful one was that so much to ask? 606 | @tagged | notes ulla |

♥ better than a pro hero! ♥ Serpent of the TOXIC Sea "N-no! Not often at all!" Nervously bringing her hands up to her cheeks, she felt her face warm up with a subtle blush as she took care of his stating the obvious question! Why was this so embarrassing?! Her friend was just pointing out facts and comparing them since all this time she'd been wearing trash bag cloaks...her nice stuff was saved for special events and occasions! Especially since it took a while to clean them...maybe that's why it was embarrassing? Most people didn't have her problems...most people didn't have to worry about how to clean their clothes or saving a small selection of pretty clothes... .... Lots of folks didn't have to concern themselves with how to clean them of icky slime that secreted off of their bodies against their will. Biting back all the feelings that threatened to bubble up and suffocate her with all those concerns, she'd just keep ignoring it rather than deal with it. Now wasn't the time for that, so she didn't let on that anything was wrong as shook it off with a smile and pranced along to Fion's house...everything was gonna be okay! Fion's family wouldn't think she was bad company and poor Red would have a happy home...y-yeah! Though when they got there and she was mistaking the place for multiple things that the estate wasn't, her smile faltered a bit as she looked toward little Red stirring himself into a panic. Red sounded....scared...? The nervousness was starting to stir back up in a small little fit of her own panic, "U-um...Fio-san....?" But she forced a bright smile back on her face as she quickly corrected herself with an upbeat chirp, "Iiiiis Red okay? Does Red need pets or a hug?" Shuffling up so she'd be across Fion, she gently patted around upon him with her gloved hands with a nervous smile while trying to find Red, "Psstpsst! It's okay, Red! I'll be sure to protect you and Fio-san will too~!" Though she was definitely a little nervous for some reason, she was still trying to be positive! |

Fion could feel Red freaking out which wasn't the most pleasant feeling for sure having an animal squirming around and hiding in your clothes thankfully he was more durable then the average person so it didn't really hurt so much as it was uncomfortable for him. Fion had a feeling something was wrong and he'd have to figure it out before they could actually enter his house so he pulled his hand back and stopped for a moment so he could check up on Red. It wasn't long though until he could hear Hifumi she sounded a little panicked but seemed to quickly jump back to her usual self and began to come close to try and calm down red which was helpful and Fion would of course give a little thank you. "Thanks for the help. We need to calm him down and try and figure out what's wrong before we do anything."
Fion put his hands where he could feel red and gently pulled him out and held him in his arms like you would a big fluffy cat and tried to calm him down by petting him or various other things. Fion did decide he would actually try something that he heard his family apparently can do but he never bothered which was apparently people in his family have a weird ability to sort of understand some animals and communicate with them in some way. He would look like a complete idiot if it didn't work but he'd try anyway cause you never know until you try. Fion began to clear his throat abit and preparing to do something he's never tried before but he vaguely could understand what Red was trying to confer earlier so he'd do his vaguest at trying to say what he wants to say. "Well this will either work or I'll look like and idiot but here goes."
Fion began to make a sound similar to Red when it sounded like he was trying to talk Fion only real knew how to express emotions with the sounds but tried to make a sound with a similar feel to asking what's wrong.

♛ Why did they have to be going to such a place? Why did the memories and fears have to flood his mind? Was his life cursed to repeat himself and be used as a breeding animal just for monetary gain for the high society folk? Would he get sold back to the circus once they used him for their deeds? These thoughts plagued Red as he hid in the shirt of the boy who picked him off the street. It wasn't a very good hiding spot even Red had to admit this, but it felt safe and warm. He could hear the rhythm of the boy's heart as he shook in fear.
Then things began to turn strange though very quickly for Red. As he was pulled out of the shirt of the boy he was hiding in he would squirm a bit making small chirping noises. The noises were cries of help. Red was trying to speak saying he didn't want to return to this place, but he knew these people wouldn't understand him, but still expressing his fears was always a good thing.
It was then that Red heard chirping back that he stopped moving very abruptly. He looked at where the source of the chirping came from and found himself face to face with the boy he was hiding in. Red's eyes widened in both fear and shock. Could he understand him? Was it possible the boy knew how to speak his language? Did people like that even exist? Red's body went limp in Fion's hands as he titled his head to the side and chirped back asking, "You can understand me?" It was an honest question as he had never met anyone that wasn't a red panda like him being able to communicate with him. This was certainly a strange situation and Red looked over to the girl who was with him and tilted his head at her too. Could she also speak his language? 329| @tagged | notes ulla |

♥ better than a pro hero! ♥ Serpent of the TOXIC Sea Idiocy? Oh according to lots of people she was super dumb, a total idiot! Looks like her expertise was finally gonna be useful with something for one of her friends. HOW EXCITING~! Being a complete moron has never been helpful for anything before, so this was nice... "Oh! I'm good at looking like an idiot! I can confirm that I, as an expert, see that you're nnnnnnnnnot looking like an idiot!" Nervously taking a few steps back, she pointed toward Fion and their fluffy child with a big ol' grin. Which...she slowly brought the tip of her finger toward her chin while furrowing her brows. Normally, she'd been dolled up in trash bags, so it was weird to wear actual clothing for a change. Sure, there was her dress...but...it was always worn under the trash bag layers. "....plus, is it really stupid if he's making noises back? That sounds successful...kind of, anyway....mmmmmaybe..."On the surface, at least to the fishy teen, Red didn't seem as stressed out and was calming down a bit more. Huh...and her little fluffy child friend seemed to be looking in her general direction...? Squeaking out a soft chirp, she leaned forward while moving her hand away from her chin with a grin full of optimism, "Hi baby, Red, hiiii! Are you feeling better, sweetie pie cutie honey bunch angel cake face?" Slowly reaching over, she figured now would be a good time to try and offer comforting head pet pats! |

Fion could hear Hifumi basically calling herself an idiot it wasn't necessarily wrong but he didn't think she was an idiot though it also sounded like she said Fion was saying he didn't look like an idiot which was a little reassuring. He could then hear some chirps from Red so he clearly said something similar for the little guy to understand though he was going purely off emotions at the moment. Fion could tell based on how he was acting and the tone that Red was asking something to the effect of you can understand me but he was basing it purely off of context and nothing else. Fion could then hear Hifumi commenting on it saying maybe he was successful or something but Fion decided to come clean on how he couldn't really understand and was purely basing off of context and making similar sounds with certain emotions.
"No...not really I'm going purely off of context clues and the tone of the sounds to guess what's happening kind of like if you have a pet cat for a long time you kind of know what they want when they meow at you." That did make Fion wonder though then if he could try and do some kind of reaffirming noise to Red to let him know he kind of understands him but not through his language so much as his actions though perhaps he could sort of understand his speaking somewhat? Fion wasn't really sure but soon could hear Hifumi walking closer and starting to get her hands all over Red saying some kind words and somewhat cheesy nicknames to the animal which really made her sound like a mom talking to her child trying to cheer them up. Fion decided to give a few chirps back to Red in a tone that sounded like he was basically saying he could understand him at least somewhat though he didn't know how it would translate.
Fion did wonder if perhaps he did assume they were bringing him to a place similar to where he used to be held which based on reaction meant he had a somewhat shitty time hopefully Fion's Grandpa or mom would be close to the gate and hear them talking and come over hopefully a kind face would ease the poor guy abit.
