Marise steps closer, vines rising and receding around her feet, until she stands toe to toe with Youko. "IF you give me information about something, perhaps I will reward your boldness in turn."
Yoko was surprised to see not some hideous creature, but a girl. A cute girl at that. Yoko was best not to underestimate her, she already had a taste at the kind of power she wielded.
"Oh? And what kind of information do you want from me?"
"That is correct. Former soldier, American, middle aged, in physical peak fighting condition, wields magic cards that allow him to summon a fiery phoenix and transport from one area to the other in the blink of an eye, a highly dangerous psychopath," she answered, "Does that satisfy your condition?"
"And I will," she answered, "Only if you grant my request for the information on Hoban. You give me some and I give you some. You do this for me, I tell you more about what you want to know, and then you finish it out. Fair?"
"I will hear your request." Marise replied, fully aware that she could break things up at any time. But she was intrigued by this human, and wanted to see what she was about.
"Good to hear that," she half-smiled, "Both we get to the nity gritty, all I ask of you in exchange for the information about Coban - is to touch you. Just once, simple as that."
Yoko said nothing as she moved her hand forward, resting her hand on the girl's exposed flesh. If she wanted she could grasp the girl's throat easily and strangle her to death, leaving her body to be studied, but immediately decided against it.
"Soft," she responded before sliding her hand down the girl's the back of the girl's shirt, "No scales or flora of any kind."
The other watched and listened to Youko. She shivered just a bit and kept her eyes on the other. "Well? What do you think...and you did well to spare me."
