"You can call me Murmur," he replied shortly. It wasn't his real name, but he supposed Venom wasn't either. His name came from a demon from a book called Ars Goetia, but to most people it would probably seem like just a silly name.
... It was fairly obvious that he didn't like how soul magic worked, and how it needed emotions by how he talked about it. "Souls are attracted to other souls. Emotions create more emotions and draw them together. By mastering your own emotion, you can pull out the souls of others, and destroy them." He glanced at her, before saying the next bit.
"You can manipulate anyone if you master your emotions." Then he paused, and tacked on a thoughtful, "except for someone who has master over their own emotions themselves... Or someone like you, who doesn't have any grasp on their emotions at all. Who doesn't know emotion."

"So what you are saying is that you can't manipulate me?" She lifted an eyebrow at him. He had a point though. He really had no emotions to poke at. "Well thats good. I'm not some puppet to be played with." She huffed. Her tails swished around for a moment, accidentally bumping into his.
Well maybe if he wasn't so damn close I wouldn't have bumped him. So not apologizing.

Murmur rolled his eyes and his tails settled along hers, smoothing them in an attempt to get them to stop swishing. "I can't mess with your soul too well, no. However, you won't be able to mess with mine either." He shook his head.
"I wouldn't want to mess with your emotions anyway. They seem to be very unstable. It would be like trying to soothe a rabbit into believing you won't eat it."

"Will you stop that?" Her tails kept trying to get away. "I don't like that. It feels weiiiiird." She wiggled her tails away and let them drag on the ground. Ugh that was weird. Maybe he was doing something and lieing. Only one thing for certain. She couldn't trust him. It was OK too because he didn't trust her either.

"Sure, I can stop." He replied, continuing west on his way. "The problem with the Monument is you can't stay for too long. The hunters go there looking for kitsune at least once a month. It's suicide for them though... I'm sure the humans will be bothered by all the dead bodies."
He glanced at her. "So we're going to head to the land of shrubs and dirt. Unless you want something more difficult."

"By difficult do you mean the mountains or dessert? I've been to the desert but never the mountains.." She began to ponder. "Oh damn... I forgot to steal a bite. Human usually tastes very good. It's like soft pig. Nice and chewy..." She sighed happily thinking about it. It was kinda cute since she had her freaky eyes closed.

"The mountains are behind us, so I mean the desert," he replied curtly, mostly ignoring her comment on the taste of human. It might have been okay-- the human taste-- if it wasn't for the fact that the skin tasted so... fake. Humans seemed to be getting more and more dolled up with chemicals... Ugh.
"We'll go hunting soon enough, anyway."

"Well thats good. Im afraid that one small vole doesn't fill me." After all she does eat most of her human kills. Though he was right. They were starting to taste faker and faker.
"Also I feel terribly uncomfortable as a fox..."

"Uncomfortable as a fox?" He stared at her with wide eyes. "You're not a fox, you're a kitsune!" There was offense in his tone- not directly at her, but at the term fox. He didn't even dare ask her if she preferred being in a human form.
... Not that he really liked the natural kitsune form. He just wouldn't dare call himself a fox, nor would he like taking the form of a human.

She stared at him blankly. "Why are you getting upset. I'm a fox...with magic powers. Whoo." She turned into her human form and walked on. "I'm just use to this one more."

"There is a big difference between a fox and a kitsune. A fox is just another animal. They can hardly be called intelligent." He stared at her human form, feeling rather astonished at her.
Of course, she never was shown the proper kitsune pride. Of course. She didn't understand, she wasn't raised properly. It couldn't be helped. He shook his head.
"Don't mind me, though." He trotted onwards. "It's probably for the best that you take that form, if you want to blend in with people." He didn't want to comment on how cowardly he found it. She just thought differently then he did.

Her large and ALMOST adorable eyes narrowed at him. "I bet you think its cowardly. I can see how prideful you are acting. You are a very polite fo-kitsune." She stopped herself from saying fox. Heven forbid him getting angry with her. It could cost her life...

"It would be like turning into a mouse so you can get close enough to snap another mouse's neck if you ask me," he said bluntly, flicking an ear. "Nevermind it. It's not something to nitpick. There are more important things to worry."
He tilted his head. "I won't lose my temper to annoyances."

"Oh really? What if I picked you up and pet you?" That would piss me off...HA. Funny. She chuckled to herself darkly. No but seriously, it would.

"Good luck catching me long enough to pet me," he said in a dull tone. "You'll have to learn to prevent things that will set you off, or learn to not be set off by them."
