Kit Killovarras has posed:
Hells Kitchen is a hell of a place on a good day, but today? Today there's just a feeling in the air that something isn't quite right. It's almost like people are ever so slightly on edge for some reason or another, but the 'why' of it is uncertain.

A lot of people can be found here today and Kit is no different, though his reason might be. He's dressed in his typical black hoodie and black jeans, hood pulled up and head tilted down, obscuring his features, his legs are adjusted inside his pantlegs to make him look shorter than he actually is, leaving him in what can only be described as a partial crouch, though he looks entirely normal. Just a normal teenager who looks a little anti-social, carrying a cloth bag of goods and moving in and out of various alleyways.

If nothing else, he's a humanitarian, giving out ziplock bags of minor supplies such as soap, tooth brushes, water bottles and even food to the homeless here. Just a normal Good Samaritan doing what he can for those who are down on their luck.. right?

Harley Quinn has posed:
Theirs a scream.. A howl of pain.. and a very demented Laughter.. Even several more Screams.. before 2 Men rush.. Booth looks like their bleeding.. one seems to have a broken jaw.. the other is holding his arm.. a third Wobbles out, holding his crotch.. before you hear, " Where ya going.. I thought you wanted a good time ... " Another evil laugh " I even said no .. don't ya like that ? " before some kinda chain.. Lands on the guy and Drags him back into the alley, SCREAMING....

Kit Killovarras has posed:
The sound of screams gets the yeens immediate attention and his initial response? Just a sigh as someone runs past holding their arm... Then the man with what looks like a broken jaw? And the yelling? Yeah, this is something he's going to step in between. The bag in his hand seems to levitate up onto a street lamp of it's own accord as Kit lets himself stand his full height now, revealing the paws and some of his ankles beneath the hem of his pants.

There are a few more sudden screams as the aardwolf reaches up and pulls back his hood, revealing the face of a creature rather than a man, but the few who seem to be afraid of him notice the cage style guard around his muzzle too.. He couldn't bite if he wanted to.

A few people watch in awe and a few in terror as a violet energy crackles over his left hand and down to his claw-tips and with a simple swipe of his paw? Four long, razor-sharp blades of pure energy form in the air and fly off, slashing the chain that's dragging a man screaming into an alley. The cut is clean, only a single link is cut from the chain, leaving the metal smoking from the sudden heat of it.

He doesn't enter the alley way yet, but he is listening for movement, voices and more. If there are others in danger he'll enter, but for now? For now he's just doing damage control, especially given the things that are being shouted by the maniac of a woman who was using that chain.

Harley Quinn has posed:
You hear a very loud " HEY WHAT THE??? That's my rapist.. No kill stealing! " The voice is strange mix of angry and strange high pitched little girl.. Even as out from the alley comes a very very familiar person.. especially when she has a hammer that's TWICE her size and a very crazy grin.. she looks over at what looks like a hooker behind her " Beat it toots.. this might get messy " .

Kit Killovarras has posed:
The man who had been connected to the chain tries to stand and run, but the segment of chain that was still near him simply jumps up and wraps around his legs as he tries, sending him back to the ground and causing him to issue another scream in panic.

The yeen just studies Harley with her hammer and tilts his head ever so slightly, explaining, "There isn't going to be any killing today." rather matter-of-factly.

Those mismatched eyes of his study the woman and her weapon and though he does seem at least to some extent impressed by the size of the weapon, the sight of it and the fact that she can wield it doesn't seem to phase him in the least.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Blinks she frowns she looks at you for several loooon moments " Wait a minute... PUPPY! " She squeals all happy, even clapping her hands.. She lets the hammer go... the Massive thing smashes into the sidewalk, cracking it and showing off how heavy it is.. But that's not the danger.. nope it's the full body Snuggle tackle that's incoming! Especially from a giggly Blond psyco.

Kit Killovarras has posed:
Big THUMP little Oof.

Kit's pretty good at dodging strikes, but when it's a full body check and someone trying to hug him? Yeah, the yeens fur stands strait up as the woman flies at him and then tackles him to the ground, leaving him on the sidewalk just sort of... blinking. "Well, that wasn't what I was expecting.."

To the touch, his fur is incredibly soft, though it feels naturally dusty. His body is lean, far more than a normal persons would be and the muscles just beneath the skin are rock-solid. Even if he seems rather relaxed, his entire body is tense, almost perpetually so.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Is the Strangest mix of soft and firm that you've ever felt.. she's soft in palces and very fit in others.. even as she rubs her face into that nice furr and sniffs.. worse she smells like an animal.. Almost familiar and welcoming as she giggles " soooo sofft " clearly forgetting everything for the rubbing her face in that fur.. Worse her hands are giving sritches but you have noooo idea how she knows all the right spots!

Kit Killovarras has posed:
There is a lot to say about those moments where you don't know what to do and when the scritching starts? There are a LOT of things to notice when an animal becomes uncomfortable, especially when you're in physical contact with them and hyenas are no different.

His muscles tense even further for a moment, almost to a point where it feels like it could rip his skin! Though it doesn't.. At least not yet. His fur bristles a little and while he isn't audibly growling? There's a telltale rumble in his chest, something crossed between a near silent growl and a confused groan.

After a moment, he finally relaxes a bit though, all the warning signs slowly stopping as he murmurs, "You -do- realize how awkward this is, right?" he asks after a moment, glancing down to the woman who is burying her face in his neck.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Pokes her head up " Why Fluffy? " She asks cocking her head. She went from crazy.. and rather scary to totally innocent and bright eye's as she looks at you " You don't want tummy rubs? may babies love it," she says brightly. as she sits up " I know you need snuggle time I understand " she says giving the side of your muzzle a kiss " Oh my god your so big and cute.. and you can talk .. i meant human talk not like my babies talk " She laughs brightly .. She stands up and pulls your hand " come on, lets go get some grub so we can snuggle " . Yep Harley 101 ride the wave or run away!

Kit Killovarras has posed:
When she finally gets up, Kit sits up and dusts himself off for a moment, then she calls him 'fluffy' and he just sort of stops and looks at her funny before giving a little laugh and extending a paw, "Please don't call me that." he says with a chuckle, then adds, "Names Kit and honestly? Food sounds better than a fight right now, so why not?" he says as he gets up with some assistance.

The question of tummy rubs gets addressed though once he's finally up on his feet again. "As for belly rubs? Don't get me wrong, I love them, but that's something I only let my mate do." Then there's a toothy little grin and he adds, "Headpats and pets are generally fine though."

A glance is given to the man who is still freaking out on the ground, his legs bound by chains that seem to slither like a snake, keeping his legs bound no matter how much he tries to remove it. After a moment, the yeen gives Harley a glance and asks, "You called him a rapist?" sounding a little confused. "Or is he just some drunk-ass who groped someone?"

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Looks over, " there are two of you O M G yay! " She jumps and happily laughs " you mean I can snuggle by 4 henyas.. Imma be in heaven I know it " she grins and looks over " Who him? " She kicks his face knocking him out " him, and those goons were gonna take some free sex from that working girl.. i call that rape, and unless it's for a purpose, that's a no no " She spits on the out-cold man..

     She looks, " What's with the muzzle? Isn't that demeaning and racist? " She asks curiously some times Harley can really be an innocent little crazy bean! the she frowns " If you want head pads I need a couch so you can put that head down .. cause I doubt you want me climbing you like a moutain.. I can but you know "

Kit Killovarras has posed:
"Then deal with him the right way next time.." the hyena says with a sigh, then walks over to the man and drags a dull claw over his wounds, sealing them closed as he searches the mans pockets. When he finds a phone, he dials 911 out on it and when the operator picks up? "Track this phone, it's owner attempted to rape a young woman at it's location. He's going to need medical assistance."

Then he drops the phone on the mans unconscious form and stands up, starting off as he motions for Harley to come with him. "Come on, I know a decent place to grab a bite near here." It's only when he's out of range of the phone that he continues to speak, "As for my mate? He's... Well, he's not a hyena." with a little bit of a chuckle.

Then the question about the muzzle. Kit sort of pauses for a moment before he shakes his head and explains, "Some people might think so, but I wear it of my own accord." He reaches back, clicking the clasp for the piece of armor and pulls it off, showing Harley the inside which has been reinforced with some kind of very, VERY durable metal. Possibly tungsten from the nature of the dulled gleam of it. "And, it tends to make other people feel about as safe as it does for me too, so.." he gives a little shrug and a faint smile.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Reaches up well best she can. She's on her damn tip toes here, your damn tall! but she rubs under that chin " yeah, but it gets in the way of this! " she complains as she follows along .. before she grins " I think you look handsome anyways.. ohh what kinda fluffy is your boyfriend " She's totally not shocked at all she doesn't even seem to care.. then again Harleys gender kinda.. what ever anyways . .

     She grabs the Mallet on the way " I wasn't gonna kill him "s he rolls her eye's " I made batsy a promise " She says " It was a pinky promise and you can't break those " she says proudly as she skips along

Kit Killovarras has posed:
It's not a long walk to get where the yeen is going and where is that? A somewhat out of place little food truck. the man inside gives him one look and gives a grin, asking, "Lookin' for the usual?" The man has a thick, middle eastern accent. Kit just nods and grins. "Extra heat if you don't mind and whatever she's having.." he says with a motion to Harley.

The question about his mates species gets a little smile and a simple, "Feline. Though, he is like me too. Bipedal and speaks English too." Then she gets up on her tip toes to scritch at his chin, so he leans into it a little and then lets himself rest a little lower on his legs.

Digitigrade legs are a blessing when you realize how they can be used and since it's nothing more than a simple motion for him, given his talents? He brings himself down almost seven inches in the span of a few seconds as he adjusts his stance slightly. "Sorry about that, by the way. Normally I don't get people wanting to pet me, so it's not really a normal reaction to crouch for it." he admits, sounding rather amused at the thought. "Actually, normally people either run away screaming when they see me, or just stand there frozen in place for a while just.. staring." He slips the muzzle into his hoodie pocket and adds, "And yeah, it does tend to get in the way of some things, but it's better than letting someone knock me in the nose in a fight."

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Ohhhs suddenly understanding " it's ta stop the bad nose boops got it " she thumbs up as if she understands and clearly dosn't .. But she looks over " What's the special and make it Super spicy please.. " she breaks into arabic with the guy asking him questions about his food before she settles on something. She beams a big smile " food trucks have the best food I swear.. when guys damage them I just wanna " she growls and makes strangling motions ..

     " he's a kittty...ohhhh okay I'm totally coming over for a sleep over " she beams " maybe ivy can join... she's a peach , well she's more of a plant but ya know. I tried to pet cheeta a couple of times but that bitch tied to claw me "She laughs rightly " She wasn't that soft " she winks.

Kit Killovarras has posed:
Kit just nods a little and chuckles. "Exactly. Because of what I am, I have an extremely sensitive nose. I don't exactly want someone smacking it and making it so all I can smell is blood for a week." Then she starts speaking Arabic and and his ears perk up. "You speak Arabic pretty well." he says in his native tongue, which would quickly make it clear where the subtle accent he has comes from. "Not often I find those who can speak it well."

As for the yeens usual? He slips the man in the truck some cash and winds up being handed four servings of Hawawshi and a fair sized cup of... something? It's almost red, but bordering more on orange and it looks remarkably creamy, but smells like death incarnate if you have a nose for spice. "By the way, you shouldn't ask for 'extra spicy' here unless you mean it." he says, offering Harley a bit of the sauce he was given.

Then the mention of a sleep-over gets him laughing and he just sort of shrugs, "Sadly, where I'm currently living we aren't allowed to have guests. Boarding school and all. But I'm sure we can work something out so you can meet him at some point."

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Laughs " bah we'll crash at one of my pads.. I got loads.. " she licks " ohhh it's got a little kick " she grins and reaches into her clevage.. she's no power girl but still she's got girls and pulls out a little vial " you want spicy put this on it " She giggles but that giggle is a little not natural .. before she puts some on her food taking a bit.. even her pale skin goes red " hot hot hot hot " .. She wave her hand over her mouth..

Kit Killovarras has posed:
Kit takes the vial when offered and gives it a sniff, then dribbles a bit into the Shatta and mixes it in before giving it a try. Normally, the sauce gets very little response from the aardwolf, but with the added heat? He dips his hawawshi in it and takes a bite, the edges of his ears flushing a little bit as he muses, "Not bad." right before a little exhale from the heat. He's not superhuman by any real means, but he is psychotic when it comes to spicy foods and he has been since he was a child. If he were more human, he'd probably be sweating from the reaction to the pepper, but the lack of sweat glands tends to make that particular reaction to spice impossible.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Laughs " Wow, your a champion Spice head ya know.. That stuff made even the big blue pain in the ass say, uncle " she giggles as she grins "I used it at a spicy competition once so I'd win " She winks and giggles thinking about it .. It's a good thing your are not human cause if you were, that stuff would burn your mouth.. that much is clear that is not fit for normal humans to eat!


She keeps chomping and speaking to you in your native tongue" Oh yeah, I learned a whole bunch of languages once when I got locked up and was bored you know " She shrugs " I think it was like 10 or 12 something like that " she shrugs " you got time when your locked up without something to snuggle " ... She thinks " BABBIES!!!! " She screams out super loud, and several moments later, you hear a WAY to familiar animal like laugh..

Kit Killovarras has posed:
The sound of familiar 'laughing' causes Kit's ears to perk up suddenly and his attention snaps over to the direction it came from. Then he licks at the side of his own maw for a moment before he lets out this low sound, like a rumbling 'giggle'. For those who know the species well, it's easy to identify as a 'call to a truce', which is typically seen as both an acknowledgment that they aren't a threat and often times, even an invitation to a meal. Then he gives Harley a glance and a little smile. "I take it they're pretty good at going unseen when they want to, too?" Hyenas are the sly sort, cunning when they need to be, even if most people don't think so.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Quinn Gives a bright happy giggle even as you get a low laughing Response.. As if to say yes.. even as Harley giggles " come to mama! " she opens her arms, and you watch those two rather huge examples of thier type Jump from the top of of a building only o be caught and put on the ground by Harley .. " hello my bbabbies did you miss mommy.. yesss mommy missed you .. i got you some num numss " She says pulling out some of the extra food she ordered.. and putting it down for the two..

     They have the she's the matriarch attitude, so if she says, your okay, then they are okay, kinda move.. Though they do sniff towards you and then go down on their dinner. as she's rubbing their necks " Such good babbies " . She looks over " Kinda " she smirks "but I should take em home for din din's " she grins " But hey if you ever need me " she tosses you burner phone " Push 1 " She winks.

Kit Killovarras has posed:
Kit catches the burner phone and gives a little chuckle, watching the hyenas make their entrance, then he gives a little nod and muses, "They might freak a few people out, but they seem pretty well mannered." with a toothy grin. "Here," he adds as he takes a small black pouch out of his hoodie and tosses it to Harley. "A little taste of home." he adds with a smile.

The pouch contains what looks like roasted termites. A common snack from Egypt when they're tossed in spices, but these ones have been prepared with animals in mind it seems, since they're lacking the more 'dangerous' spices. For an Aardwolf, they are a diet staple but even to a spotted hyena the little bastards would be a treat like no other.
