The cafe looked pretty shabby from outside, a testament to the wearing trials of even the past few days. He was supremely lucky not to have encountered any crabs so far on his walk. It was just a matter of time, he knew, and so, for now, he relished the peace of a world soon to be broken.

He paused as he came up to the cafe, his poor vantage point not allowing him a peek inside just yet. Dante...the demon hunter with a legendary demon's blood coursing through him. That was what the Master of the Cathedral of Shadows had said. A demon who hunts demons, an outside member of the Fiends who had hunted him, Dante was certainly enthusiastic about his job.

I'll give you ten minutes to decide. Which would you rather end up in, a coffin or a dumpster?

Naoki chuckled a little and pushed the cafe door open.

((OOC Comment: Soundtrack Start! Toshiko Tasaki - "Checkmate"))

Naoki's markings glowed the brighter as he entered, his gold eyes scanning the place before settling on a nearby table.

The flames on the Candelabrum of Sovereignty ( ... )

Dante's pulled out of his thoughts at the sound of his name, looking over to the kid who's decided to sit down across from him. He smirks a bit before he sits straight up, pushing a bit of his hair out of his eyes. "I'm guessing I'm an old man to you normally then, right?" Though honestly, he didn't like the idea of getting older.

"I was beginning to think you wouldn't come for awhile there. Glad you did, really. So, I apparently fight with you right?" At least from what Dante remembered him saying the other day, which still creeped him right the fuck out how he knew. "I mean, who are you? No offense, but you're obviously a demon. Well, were, considering this world. Not to say I don't trust you or anything, I obviously had reason to if I blew off a job that sounds like it was paying a lot."

Basically, convince him before he thinks otherwise, cause Dante can't make a decision on his own. "And did I mention anything about my brother?"

Naoki's smile was calm...and yet there was a sense that he could have smiled just the same in a charnel house-in-the-making. It wasn't exultant, nor deranged, nor even false. If there was a label to it, it would be...confident. He smiled because he was, and nothing in the room would change that.

Not even a son of Sparda.

"I am who I am who I am well, who am I? Kashima Naoki, as I told you. Japanese name order, so to you, it'd be Naoki Kashima. I'll tell you one thing first, though: the only reason I'm saying anything more to you is because I trust you. That's actually something I don't say lightly, so please take the compliment. I know you understand me, and I know what kind of person you are...or will be, whenever you meet me for the 'first' time."

A pause for breath. For being labeled The Quiet One of his group, he certainly could be a blabbermouth, couldn't he? So much had changed from that idyllic long ago and far away. So much...

Hey, newbie, teach me to play? Nitta Isamu, nice to meet'cha!
We all serve a purpose ( ... )

Dante listens quietly as Naoki explains everything, trying to figure out if there'd be anything the kid could be lying about. From some of his reactions, much less the strong yet friendly demeanor, like he was sure of everything, even when he spoke of Dante. He takes a moment to lull over some information before leaning forward with a smile ( ... )
