Animaphage Partner Acquired!

Kuzunoha smirked and tilted her head, the fox ears atop her head twitching ever so slightly as if emphasizing her next point. "As for surviving, well—let's just say my methods are far beyond what someone who can't even perform an ohrtending could fathom~ Arcane anomalies aside, the lifeline I require sustains me more than sufficiently."

It seemed like she knew of my inability to perform an ohrtending, heh.

"And now you're lacking a lifeline, unless you have a lot of reserve ready to be savored?"

"Ah, worry not, my dear." Kuzunoha waved her hand dismissively, her tone dripping with casual amusement. "As you rightly assumed, I have quite the reserve prepared, ready for whenever I feel the urge to indulge my… beastly tendencies~"

"Sounds like quite the event."

A sly smile crept onto her lips. "If you're curious, darling, I'd be more than happy to let you savor that experience firsthand."

"No thanks."
