Aqua just smiles kindly to him, even when he pulled his hand away, her heart brimming with joy. Suddenly, it seemed like the world was in balance again, even if there were some pretty nasty bugs that still needed to be terminated, things still feel right. "Thank you," She says when he he's ready to go and she turns and begins her brisk, heading home pace. "So... Where do you live?"

Shizuo thrust his hands in his pockets and walked alongside her "Me? I live just off of Main in what of the little side streets with Kasuka" he placed a cigarette in his mouth "I've stayed there since I was 18, I don't know if I'd have it in me to move anymore, place has been my personal fortress since I moved in, kept me safe, warm" he lit the tobacco, cautiously exhaling smoke away from Aqua "I'd show you some time, but the place is usually a dump"

Aqua smiles and says on reflex, "I could fix that." But then she shakes her head and laughs. "What I mean is that I could come over sometime, if you wanted, and help you clean things up a bit." She slows a little and grabs the end of his sleeve so they can make the turn down into a back alley together.
"Or... We could just hang out... And talk... Like now..." She shrugs to herself, glad the shadows made it hard for Shizuo to see her nervous flushing. "Um... Um... So... Have any hobbies?"

Shizuo gave a small smile "Sure... Let's just see how hungover Kasuka is in the morning first, if he has a pelting headache then I doubt he'd appreciate a good spring clean" As they turned down the alley he heard her ask about his hobbies, did he really have any? To be honest he'd never really thought about that "I don't think I have any hobbies, unless you include chasing down Izaya Orihara with a stop sign a hobby..." He looked down at Aqua in the poor light "What about you? What do you do in your free time?"

Aqua giggles a little at whether or not his cousin would have a massive hang over, "Alright." She then shrugs when he asks about her hobbies. "I'm a crafts person, even though its my job, it started out as a hobby." She sighs again.
"Although if stuff like this code beta we've been having keep popping up," She kind of twists her hands together and she glances around, almost if to check to make sure no one was looking, "I might have to start working at my old job again." She shivers for she hated waiting on people, asking things them what they wanted or how things were going, constantly being perfect while being the most nervous wreck she'll ever be. Its not like she doesn't like people its just... She's paranoid since she moved in here... Pregnant at 18 and never worked a day in her life before that, at least not at a place they would take as a reference.
Sighing again she looks up to Shizuo, "I've been living here for fifteen years... And I still am afraid of people... Odd, huh?"

Shizuo nodded, noting the sound of impatience in her voice as she looked around almost in a sense of paranoia. He checked himself just in case she'd seen anything that he hadn't, but nothing straight away popped out at him so he assumed it was for a personal reason. Shizuo simply shrugged his shoulders at her statement about being scared of the people living in Urbadelphia.
"I don't know about that..." he rumbled "I mean, I've been living in this city all of my life, and there's plenty of scary people around here, look at me for a start, you tick me off and I throw a lamp post or something equally heavy at your head, there's Sora Shimomura, who bursts into flames whenever he feels like it, then there's that god damn Izaya Orihara who knows everything but refuses to tell" he clenched his fist in his pocket and gritted his teeth when he mentioned Izaya. Normally, Shizuo manages to keep his cool and not start throwing things, but if he saw Izaya? He just changed, he became a true beserker and stops at nothing to try and kill him.
"As for a place to work, there's plenty of openings around this city, I work for a guy called Tom Tanaka as his bodyguard, he's spent the last few weeks out of town for a 'business meeting' as he called it, I know it's just a holiday, but either way he'll be back soon and I'll be back working. The Veil almost always has an opening, Main Street's packed full of shops who'd take people on"
He gave Aqua a smile "The world's never as bad as you think, someone always has it worse off than you" he shrugged again "Remember that"

Aqua listens to him and gives a small smile, "Very true..." She then shrugs and comments on what he said earlier. 'I like to trust people until they've proven themselves otherwise... But I'll keep and eye out for this guy that... riles you up so much, doesn't sound like too much fun... And Sora..."
She smiles to herself, "He's a nice guy, saved me a little while back, with out him." She shrugs again. "Anyways... I might start checking out around Main Street first... I'm just not a very sociable person." So says the woman whom poured most of her current feelings out and upon a guy she just met. She then walks in silence, if Shizuo has something to say she'll readily respond, but other than that she enjoys the quiet.

Shizuo chuckled slightly at her hypocrisy before gently placing a hand on her back, making sure that he didn't lose her in the dim light "I think Main Street is a good place to start, you don't want to go searching the shady places until it's a last resort really, Tom Tanaka, of course being the shady place." he smiled at himself, Tom wasn't a bad person. He was involved in a completely legal business, it was Shizuo's part of the job that sometimes breached a few law's here and there.

Aqua nods and turns again to lead them quickly down a singular back road and soon enough they emerge outside the city, she points to a small house that looks like it has a high possibilities of being knocked over by a high wind and smiles, "Well, that's my place... Do you wanna come in for a minute or so?" Although she hopes the latter, she knows if he stayed any later he'd have to spend the night for she wouldn't even let the strongest man go out alone too late after dark.

Shizuo shrugged "Yeah, why not...? It's getting cold out here anyway" he motioned for her to lead the way whilst he took one last drag on his cigarette and throwing the roll on the floor, grinding it into the concrete with his heel "It's a pretty out of the way place isn't it?" he asked, noting that he was near the spot where a few days earlier he'd thrown a car at a demon's head.
