Zackary smiled warmly, setting his arms back down. “That’s alright. I don’t mind. Here, sit.” He patted the bed gently.

Juliet obeyed silently, stilled wiping her wet cheeks now pink and splotchy. She kicked off her shoes and brought her knees up to her chest, looking small beside Zackary.

Zackary smiled a little. “There’s no reason to cry about anything. I’m here to help and help only.”

Sariel's eyes had since directed themselves back down to Avilasa's hand, which she pulled away from the demon once they had arrived near the restaurant. Does she not trust me? Sariel wondered, following silently alongside Avilasa. Maybe she's bothered by what I am. The blonde thought, only somewhat bothered by this. She doesn't seem to be thinking of it anyway, so you shouldn't either. Sariel told herself, giving a quiet hum of agreement as to what Avilasa had said.
(Don't worry about it, I can understand internet troubles or just being busy.)

"I know… I know…" She sniffled and waved a hand dismissively. "But, no one else has ever wanted to help, not without a price.."

Zackary smiled and put a hand on her shoulder. “I understand that completely. That’s why I want to help.” He wanted to be part of this family as much as possible.

"And that's why I thank you." She slowly leaned her head on his shoulder. "And Qhuinn loves you."

Zackary wrapped his arms slowly around her shoulders, leaning his head on hers. He felt his heart racing. Why was it doing that? It never did that when he was sitting.

Juliet looked up at him. "You're really different… You know that right? Your kind and compassionate. You have that guardian aura about you." She laughed.

Zackary glanced at her with a slight grin. “That’s what a Contract-Demon should be like. Especially in contracts like this.”

"Nah, I'm a demon." Marrin said cheerfully, causing Cam to walk backwards. "Ello" Cam said politely from where she was standing on the other side if the room.

Ryan frowned a bit more, “And what do you want this time? Some group circle where we all sing kumbaya?” Erik watched anxiously from the corner, to this day not able to figure out what was going on inside Ryan’s head.

"First off, what the hell is that meaning. Like seriously, what does it mean? Anyhow, my brother, Cam is going to talk to you while I go raid this place of jello cups." Marrin said, waving goodbye and walking out the door. "I'm sorry about her." Cam apologized to the both of them.

"That's not what I expected…." Juliet shook her head. "You scared me when you approached me. I thought you were going to ask for my soul or- or my voice or something like that….." She shrugged.
((If you get the reference, I LOVE YOU!!!))

(Ooooooooooh I get thaaaaaat hahahhahaha

My Little Mermaid, right?)

Zackary shook his head. “I fell out of demanding souls years ago. They make a good snack, but I got tired of them kinda fast.”

((I LOVE YOU BOTH Huggles))
"How old are you, anyway?" She squinted up at him, trying to gauge his actual age, looking into those gray eyes.

(^D^ aaaawww I love you toooooo! hugs back)

Zackary’s eyes showed no sign of his age. He winked and waved a finger. “Never ask a handsome Contract-Demon his age. You’ll never look at him the same.”

"What, you afraid I'll start walking around, calling you Grandpa Zack? Huh?" She teased. She thought some more. "Then answer me this, what does a handsome Contract-Demon do for fun?"

Zackary chuckled lowly in response. “It’d be like, great-great-great-great-great… grandpa Zack. I’m old. What I like to do for fun?” He smiled a bit. “Eat. Sleep.”

"You really old, handsome, Contract-Demons are boring." She shook her head in disappointment. She was teasing, she like the sound of his chuckle, the way he smiled.

“If you’re into that type of thing, it can be pretty amusing. Otherwise it’s just watching me lay around and sleep.” He shrugged. He was fine with sleeping and eating a ton.

"No wonder Qhuinn likes you so much, you two are more similar in more ways than one would think." She chuckled softly. "Hey, I don't mind stuffing the both of you." She shrugged.

Zackary laughed and burped a little. That one seemed to be unintentional. “Ooh. You can cook, I’ll give you that.” He grinned cutely, showing off his sharp white teeth.
