[b]The Shed, 8:00 AM[/b]

"I... don't really know how I'm supposed to respond to that question," Wes said, feeling just as bewildered as he did awkward. "I guess... [i]yes?[/i] Is that okay? Can I say that?"

Something about having her identity revealed so quickly seemed to have set his Servant on edge, or at least that's what he assumed based on her ears and what he knew about the social cues of various animals, foxes included. 

"Are you okay?" he asked, concerned for his Servant.

Maybe it was because her legend was primarily associated with deception and (perhaps) attempted murder? Wes wasn't too terribly worried about that though. He'd summoned from compatibility, so their alignments should be similar. He didn't [i]feel[/i] like a murderer, so he doubted the fox girl was as guilty as the emperor had assumed her to be. No, he was guessing there was just more to the story than what he'd been told. 

But that wasn't his primary concern anyway. His primary concern was making sure she was happy so they wouldn't have any problems working together, and why she kept saying she wanted to be his [i]wife.[/i]

Oh, that and the group of startled workers on break who'd just seen the shed light up like the the damn Holidazzle. That was probably important too.

"<Holy shit!>"

"<What the hell was that?>"

"<What is that kid doing in there?!>"

"<You think he's okay?>"

"<Screw that, I'm wondering if [i]we're[/i] gonna be okay!>"

To Wes it all just sounded like gibberish heading in one ear and out the other, but for Tamamo it should have been perfectly clear. 

"Uhhh, Tamamo? Do you know what they're saying?" Wes asked as he prepared to have to hypnotize even more people.
