Suddenly, a grey arm jutted out from under the coat and wrapped around Runner's own.

Harper throws her knife into grey arm, "Runner you good?"
Sakuya's gaze never left the figure held by Runner. Her body was tensed, much like earlier with Hydrox, the skin along her arms seemed to ripple, becoming scales, but then softening again into her pale skin.
"Such a strange thing…"
She shifted her weight a bit, nervous and unsure.
He nodded, looking unconcerned. "It doesn't even have enough strength to put any pressure."
Harper turns to Sakuya, "What should we do?" She looks at the figure, quite unsure of it.
The cloak fell off, revealing…nothing but the arm, which fell limply from Runner's neck and to the ground. He jumped backwards. "The fuck?!"
Harper grabs the arm of the ground, "So, what now?"
The female, noticing the words directed towards her, glanced to Harper. Her blue eyes shifted back to the cloaked thing.
"Your guess is as good as mine. I can't tell what it is with its cover, and the scent is unfamiliar to me. Though, seeing how weak it is, probably an imp of some sort, but I could be wrong. Knowing how the night started, and now it is morning, it is anyone's guess to what it could be."
her eyes landed on the arm, the female instantly releasing a hiss.
Suddenly, the arm burst into about spiders, climbing all over Harper.
"Most definitely an imp." Harper says, brushing the spiders off, or at least trying to bush them off.
Sakuya moved swiftly, there was no hint of a limp as had been seen earlier. The female was quick to grab the nearest container, a tail having suddenly sprung from her spine, sweeping the small creatures into the mug. With a swift movement, she covered the top with a heavy plate from nearby.
Her eyes swiftly turned to both Runner and Harper, features filled with concern, "Check yourselves thoroughly…if these creatures are what I think they are…"
Harper nods her head and decides to do what Sakuya had said to do. The idea that there might be an imp lurking could be the end of what they were doing here. She shivered, clearly nervous that the imp might be still out there.
(( ngl i kinda ship runner and harper not because I own harper but like that would be so cute
He frowned, watching the scene. "It's all in there. I don't feel it anywhere else."
"well we should try to investigate this imp and see what its doing her." Harper says putting her hair into a messy braid. She looks at Runner, who wasn't phased at all.
"It's from my fa- dad," he said, having to repulse the urge to call him 'father.'
Harper gives him a sad look, man, this kid has been through a lot of crap. "Well why is it here though? following us?"
"He wants me. I was built to kill specific people, like I said, and since I rebelled against him, he wants me back."
"But–never mind." Harper starts and glances at the jar of spider things.
A gentle, hesitant knock at the door.
((Worry not, Runner. It is the adorable Kiriti coming to apologize on behalf of the Vanguard and offer any kind of cleanup needed))
((He may or may not go off.
Sakuya nodded, "Good."
As the Runner continued to explain, she released a soft sigh of relief. Well, maybe it wasn't so great, but in her mind, it was better than having what she thought had been parasites from the corruption. Her tail curled against her side as she sat back in her chair. The woman folded her hands neatly in her lap, looking towards the small creatures in the jar.
The tip of her tail started to twitch in an almost nervous fashion. Her gaze never left the things crawling around, "Still, we should get rid of these things."
A soft knock on the door brought her attention Sakuya lifted her head, hesitant. She stood up, slowly walking to the door, opening it to see who waited on the other side.
((He never met Kiriti, I don't think, so they should be fine
((Yeah. He shouldn't get set off since she's a kitsune and from the realm of peace, so a fight is the last thing she wants. She's the healer of the group
It was a owl-eyed, innocent looking girl with large white fox ears and bushy fox tail. She nervously fidgeted with her polka dotted skirt. "Ah, hi?"
