To the right of the girl was a drunk male, while he was tall, cute and all that. He wasn't necessarily human anymore. He'd recently, within the last two weeks, been sent to Nekotama for punishment. Where he was changed into a neko himself. Now he donned cat-like ears, and sharpened canines. His eyes no longer had their average pupils, but glowed and had  cat-like slit to them. He could be argued more attractive this way. Or that he'd lost his humanly appearance. Along with the change came a number of hormonal changes, the main being his distaste in cigarettes that he once loved. However his taste for alcohol had shot up, and now he was more laid back. While still capable of losing his head and cutting someone up just as much as before. However, today he sat at the counter, sipping down shots. Three were on the table, meaning he hadn't been here long.

That didn't mean he would leave anytime soon though.

Turning the cat-boy's head he looked before the girl. Ah, that one recruit he had read about on the ark, interesting. Ever since ranking up and impressing the guild with his hand in the martial arts tournament, he'd been tasked with helping newer people out. As had Nastasya done for him a few months back. The girl was a cutie, and had Erebus still been as passionate about bedding young girls, he'd have taken likening to her. But things changed and he was less invested into hoarding up all the girls for himself. His new focus was becoming a deadly Death Cutter. Hopefully, should he aspire in his training with Kaidou. He'd be the next Southern Star, the Nova of Death. But-- seeing how their difference in strength was so vast. It'd be a long time into the future before that became a reality...

"Ah, I see you're drinking tea..." The cat said, eyes squinting onto her, he leaned towards her ear and whispered. "This is a bar, pussy." The insult was somewhat ironic considering his race, but maybe that's why he said it? A new trademark thing to call others. No less as arrogant as ever he leaned back in and smiled. He jested himself a laugh from time to time. Wondering how the girl would react to his comfortable nature in the presence of others. Quite forwardly he grabbed her drink from the counter and poured the liquor he was helping himself to shots with inside. He then stirred it up with her straw. Sipping some for his self, he slammed the cup against the counter and slid it back her way.

"I'm Strategist. Charmed I'm sure."

Erebus chuckled to himself, having noticed the female had not paid attention him spiking her glass. He leaned towards the table, answering the girl's rather repetitive question. "I told you it. My name is Strategist." His eyes closed only for his ears to twitch upon hearing Nastasya enter the room. He perched up and poured another shot for himself, and looked back at her. His eyes blinking twice. Ah, his superior was still looking good. So many beauties in Oak, thought the cat. But then again; pretty girls could be found all over.

That was one of the blessed things about being an adventurer. You could always meet the, but he had recently made it a habit of hurting the girls. Either mentally, or physically. Maybe he was losing his mind...

"Well there, long time, no talk. The tournament was a bunch of shit. I defeated Carnage only to be beaten by some guy under the name Maarschalk. The tournament is still going on but.. I was brought home. Right as Irony went in. I wonder what's she doing?"

The Cat's eyes lazily fell to the counter, he should probably apologize for trying to kill a guild mate. But honestly, he was in no mood after the loss to have been spoken too like some child. Perhaps he'd address the fact next time they were in the same room. Meanwhile, he turned back to the girl in the dress.

"This kid here is kinda slow. Hey, what d'ya go by anyways?"
 

The cat shrugged, he had defeated Carnage and surprised Nas yeah, though if magic had been in the mix he likely would not have came in on top. He had a lot of respect for the old bitch even if he did win out. Still, breaking the priestess's ankle was nothing to scoff at; Erebus was talented up close and with his hands. Even more talented now that he was being trained by The Southern Star. Perhps next time, Maarschalk wouldn't be so lucky.

No less, Eiko carried no sense of respect for Erebus; obviously he was ranked higher but... She treated him more like n animal. He resented that a tad, but remained quiet, remembering that his drunken state might affect his patience. However, it was probably because she was trying to look impressive in front of Nasty too. In which case, the cat wasn't going to outright humiliate anyone tonight by questioning their attitudes. The neko just rolled his eyes and helped himself to more of the raw liquor that he'd purchased. After all, he deserved it. What with all this development lately.

"Irony is... a special case. I'm sure you'll meet her soon enough."

The boy's ears came down as he sighed and leaned his head against the counter. He was growing sleepy, nonetheless he would listen to the girls chat it up while they were here. Nastasya was much cuter than he remembered, maybe cause he was drunk, this kid was pretty too. If she weren't ignoring him so often he'd be peeped to continue addressing her. The cranberry juice, while not pomegranate, made Erebus question whether Eiko was one of those fake vamp kids or something before join Grimoire Heart. He noticed the fake wings she wore too.

"Hm." - The boy managed, his yellow pupils training themselves back to the real vampire as she comforted the newbie.

 

"Oh. Yeah, sure Lilja, will dooo!~"

Though half drunken, the cat obliged, waving his hand outwards and planting a more than friendly kiss on the wannabe vamp kids head before drunkenly dropping her his bill without asking permission. He made a peace sign to the Eiko girl before falling outside the door and exiting the pub. He trusted he'd return here in due tie for my drinks. Alcohol was a nice luxury, especially for someone like Erebus with nothing else better to do but hit on pretty girls...

"Bye, kid. We'll see you arou-around the ark sometime!~" He said stumbling outside and chasing off after his boss lady.
