He nodded a little bit. "Alright. Just wanted to make sure." he replied, adjusting his cloak as they walked towards the city.

"Yeah, I'd be an ass for acting high maintenance after everything," Tohru murmured, "Although you already have every right to think of me as one."
He walked directly next to Davin, trying to keep his voice low.

He shrugged his shoulders. "Nah, don't worry about it. Plus, I didn't think we could afford something big. At least, not long term and affordably."

"At least we agree on that much," Tohru chuckled softly.
He scanned over Davin for a moment, and again he started to feel a bit nervous. He might be pretty easy to single out as Kaythani.

Davin nodded. The cloak actually did a pretty good job of hiding his horns and tail, and he sighed softly, adjusting it again.

Tohru let Davin lead the way this time.
"Where are we headed?" he asked, feeling quite out of place.

Davin shrugged. "I don't know." he replied. "We should check message boards for rentals, maybe? Or get food." he shrugged again.

"Whichever comes first," Tohru said, "Both sound- Oh, there's a message board over there."
Tohru started towards it, not waiting for Davin to catch up.

Davin blinked, and followed Tohru. "Alright." he replied. He sighed. "How many bedrooms? Obviously one bathroom is fine, but are we good to share a bedroom, or do we need two?"

"I don't mind sharing one," Tohru replied, "No need to spend any more money than we have to."
He lowered his head.
"Of course, if that's okay with you as well."

Davin nodded. "It's fine with me." he replied with a shrug. He ran his hands through his hair beneath the cloak, then dropped them again. "I don't really care either way."

Tohru started to look through the ads on the board.
"Alright then, works for me."
He glanced over to a cluster of ads for apartments in the city and directed Davin to them as well.

(Gtg soon most likely)

Davin looked, eyes narrowing a little as he studied the ads. He cocked his head slightly, thinking as he looked each over. "We also have to consider the area. We don't want a place that's in a bad area."

(Okay, I'll see you around)
"No. I'm armed, but I'd rather not have to use any force. I've lived in my fair share of rough areas, and… well… I've been in a few pretty nasty fights. I'm not keen on going there again," Tohru sighed, "But if it ends up being all there is…"

(probably sometime tomorrow)

Davin nodded. "Right. It doesn't need to be the best, just not too rough." he kept scanning the boards, thinking over each place.

Tohru quickly narrowed things down in his head, thinking of the pros and cons of each place.
"Mm… not that one, too pricey…" he muttered, thinking out loud.

Davin nodded. He pulled out his personal device and did some research on the different areas of the planet they were on.

After a few minutes, Tohru glanced over.
"Find anything out?" he asked.

Davin nodded. "Yeah. We don't want places in the Torchwood, Zithan, or Nankani districts." he replied, looking at Tohru.

Tohru sighed. "Well… hm… These are all in those districts except for the expensive one. Should we keep looking, see if there's anything else we can do, or just pick the less terrible place?"

(gtg now, sorry. Good night!)

He frowned a little bit, biting his lip. "Well…Torchwood might not be as bad as the other two." he replied slowly, checking. "We don't want the expensive one, as neither of us is going to make enough money. Unless you actually want me to become a stripper. Which, no."

(Good night!)
"No, I'd become a stripper before I'd force that on you," Tohru joked.
He sighed a bit. "But no, I agree. Let's scope out Torchwood."

Davin chuckled softly. "That would be entertaining." he replied with a smile. "And alright." he took a picture of the Torchwood advertisements.

Tohru blushed. "Well… that's the idea of being a stripper, isn't it?"
He bowed his head down and pulled up an area map with directions to Torchwood.
"This way," he said.

He grinned. "It is indeed." he replied, shaking his head and laughing as he followed Tohru.
