Fai's steps were slow, steady, as he made his way towards where the man was fighting the monsters, blue eye on the monsters, hands in the pockets of his black trench coat as he made his way closer, on his way home from his shift at the Twin's club.
"They disappear for the moment when you kill them, but they'll be back tomorrow."

"That's good to know. I suppose I'll stop chasing these things around then." He frowned, but only for a moment. The blond didn't carry any visible weapon, but surely no one would wander around in the dark with monsters without defenses. "So uh...Seems my rotten luck with women might turn around," he smirked, completely oblivious of his mistake.

Fai laughed softly, a low, melodic sound as he made his way closer still. He canted his head to the side, messy blond locks sliding across the eye-patch a bit more as a slow smile curved his lips, more amused than anything by the assumption. "Are you so sure of that, my friend~?"
And then he blinked and nodded his chin up towards the rotgut cougar, added lightly, "Behind you."

Dante looked around in time to see the feline monster creeping on him. The appearances of monsters long ceased to impress him, though he did wonder at the logic of evolving such a bloated belly. It didn't look so tough. He took a swipe at it with his sword, unsure of what to make of the way it just flopped over and took the hit.
"Er..." Well back where he came from, some creatures like Blood Gargoyles liked taking hits because it made them multiply. He had a sinking he just made that mistake here.

"Back off the corpse!"
Barely had the words gotten out before an oddly colored, noxious fume started to seep from the cut and cacophony of feline mews and cries could be heard - all getting louder as they moved closer. He stepped back again, blue eye flashing gold as he looked around them, pressed his palms together.
His hands rotated against each other in opposite directions as he focused his magic, drew the dagger-tail sword from the seal in his palm.
"That, my friend, is a rather poisonous bit of nasty, and unless I missed my mark, ah nope, here they are, you've just killed the pack mother." That said, he flicked his wrist to release the blade, whipped it around to cut the heads off two of the 'kittens' scurrying up from behind him.

He shot a few of the kittens between the eyes, but they were quick, and the ones who weren't unlucky enough to get shot closed the distance easily. "These kittens don't look so cute." He coughed, probably from getting a whiff of the poison, but he wasn't too worried about that...at the moment.

"Definitely not the worst thing I've seen here. Guess that means you're still pretty new, right?"

Those were weapons he'd never seen, not in all the dimensions they'd traveled, and thus, a touch interesting.
So maybe that was the reason why he glanced around as he snapped the whip back into a blade then let his eye fade back to blue before looking at the kid.
"Come on, let's move before the rest of their pack come looking." He paused, then sighed as he re-sealed his weapon. "Besides, there are hours before morning siren left, so you can hang out in my shop and grab a bite to eat until then. We're only a block away from the subway, now. It'll be safe enough on there."

Dante seems to cheer up instantly at the mention of food. He doesn't know the significance of 'morning sirens' yet but he's sure he'll figure it out later. Hopefully there is pizza in this world, but he's definitely not in the mood to be picky.

For now, however, he simply lead the way towards the station.
Though the fact that this guy could be hungry after fighting all of these twisted being, without being upset, was a bit curious - which was why he cut his gaze to the side and asked lightly, "Used to seeing such things as those gargoyles or such, huh?"

Dante followed after Fai, exuding a carefree air but in fact quite aware of the surroundings in case anything else tries to sneak up on them.
"But yea, they're pretty common when you go hunting for bigger and badder demons like I do. Erm, did."
Reply
He paused just long enough to buy a ticket for this kid, then passed it off to the other before heading to the gate, ran his own pass through. "So, got a name, mister demon hunter with the strange weapons?"

Fai steps through the gate and started walking down the platform, long duster loose around him before he glanced back to see if the young man was following.
Blond locks slid across his cheek as he offered a small, almost teasing smile - he was having way too much fun with the other's continued misconception about his gender. "My name's kinda long, so you can just call me Fai. So how long have you been fighting through the Darkness monsters tonight, hm?"
Reply
"I've only been wandering around for about an hour before you came along. Although I feel like I should be the one helping you, not the other way around. So yea, if you need anyone's ass to be kicked, let me know." Sure, Fai could take care of himself; Dante already saw that, but hey, why not offer a pretty lady his number?
