There was no hiding the look of suprise dancing itself across her face, but she tried her damnedest to try. "I am quite happy with my 'tiny life span'," she said dourly, quoting one of the phrases that other immortals had used on her when they lamented her humanity. There was absolutely nothing wrong with being human, in fact she was proud of it; she wasn't a simpering weakling who whined about how there kind was subjugated to all kind sof horrors just because of their inability to defend themselves, and she didn't wander about with a chip on her shoulder the size of the djinn's ego, "thankyou. Flattering as your words might be, I don't think I would wish to be any other way."

"I suppose that is a good things since djinn don't grant wishes," he mused, amusement evident across his body. He was content to watch her, amused with her ramblings and how easy it was to twist her words back in on themselves and make the sentences seem to be nothing like the original utterances.
"After all, djinn are not immortal, so we make no claims on the lifespans of others, as little in comparison as they are to ours. However you humans always seem able to conjure up grand ideas and schemes and often execute them in your life spans, leaving a lasting mark upon the world after your passing, often times as if to say 'look at me, I existed'," he said with a chuckled as he waved a hand in the air.

"Just like how you're going to leave here today and wonder what became of me a few centuries down the line?" she asked with a cocked brow and swishing a pinky in the air slowly. "Red Thread of Fate has been tied bucko, so even if I fade away to nothing before you see me next, you'll remember me for the odd little creature I am," she added mysteriously as she spread her arms out as if to repeat his words. Look at me, I existed, it said mockingly, and she curtsied just to be a brat.

"Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Or I may come find you again in a few days to see if you offer anymore entertainment," he said with a chuckle as he stood on the ground again, his bird companion coming back to rest on his shoulder.
Grinning, he patted the top of her head affectionately, working a bit of magick on the girl so he could keep track of her if she ever got into serious trouble. She amused him and it usually boded well for him to keep his entertainment alive for as long as possible on this plane.

Ro brushed the hand away, the look on her face practically SCREAMING 'oh god, I'm doomed'. She appeared unaware of the little spell he'd placed on her to keep her from going to far without his noticing; her forte really wasn't magic anyways, so it was no wonder. "If you find me while I'm working, I'mma cut that pretty boy smirk off your face," she warned him. "Because I am NOT getting caught because you got bored and I'm the only one who can 'entertain' you. Got that boyo?"
She did her best to erase any evidence he'd touched her by fixing her hair. While she wasn't particularly racist (her business usually centered around different races and who paid higher for certain items), the djinn's touch had sent a shiver down her spine. Creepy.

"You are more than welcome to try. And besides, I would have no desire to interrupt your missions or work unless it went with a direct order I had been given. Where would my entertainment be if you were to die?" he asked as he arched an elegant eyebrow.
Grinning impishly, he swiftly bent down and placed a kiss on her lips, silencing anymore protests before he disappeared in front of her eyes, becoming a part of the landscape as he watched the human thief and her reactions. The kiss was nothing, simply a physical act but he liked confusing people.

There were a few wolf whistles from some of the few people wandering about the street, and Ro shot them all her almighty 'Glare of Death' to shut them up. When they laughed and turned on their merry way, Ro touched a quivering hand to her lips, face stained red. "Son of a bitch," she muttered darkly, the feel of his lips on hers lingering. After a while, she wiped it off violently and glared at her hand. "That was my first kiss."
The man was going to die, and she could just bet the smug bastard knew it.
(filler words so I can post it)

"I have no parents, so that is technically not true," he quipped from somewhere on her person, amused beyond all belief. His companion was taking residence on the roof of the building, watching the interactions between the djinn and the human.
"Now that was not a very nice thing, even if it was your supposed first kiss. Did your parents never kiss you? No siblings to speak of?" he asked in an amused tone so only she could hear what he was saying. The djinn was growing fond of her, and he had rather odd ways of showing his attachment to someone.

The blonde squeaked and dropped her bag of coins on the ground, performing a comical little dance to try and find the source of his voice. When she couldn't find it, she grabbed the bag up off the ground and disappeared down an alley. "Of course I don't have parents or siblings," she hissed to the open air, feeling silly talking to someone that, though she knew was there, couldn't see. "I've been on the streets ever since I can remember. The circus that adopted me didn't even keep me long enough to grow all that attached before they kicked me out."

"Moreso's the pity then," he said, his voice coming more distinctly from a button on her cloak. "As things go, it couldn't have been all that bad," he said, the shrug apparent in his voice.
If you knew him, one could almost imagine him examining his nails as he spoke. "You should really give up the mad hunt to find me because you'll just end up going crazy," he stated as he observed their surroundings. "And I do hope you know where you're going. I would hate to have to rescue you and have you angry with me," he said with a light laugh.

She came to an abrupt stop and sagged against the wall, her bag dropping to the ground again. "Great, I go through life with no one giving a damn about what happens to me, and all of a sudden the attention I want is from someone I don't," she muttered, rubbing her eyes tiredly. If this kept up, there was no way she was going to have the energy to go out tonight, and knowing him, it would. Now she wanted nothing more then to just crawl into bed and say 'eff you' to the rest of the world. "why exactly do you like me again?"

"You entertain me," he said simply as he materialized in front of her, leaning against the opposite wall, crossing his arms over his chest. Grinning to himself, he looked up and down the alley before bending over her and planting another kiss on her lips and pulling back, and amused smirk still there.
"Since you seem so anxious to be on your merry way, I'll let you be," he said as he placed a third kiss on her, pulling away after a moment and turning on his heel to head down the alley way and going to fade away.

"You're a real jerk, ya know that?!" she hollered after him, shaking a fist after his retreating and fading form. "Kissing a girl who just bared her soul to you!" Well, she hadn't really, but if the words were effective, then who cared? Besides, who in this world DIDN'T know that she was a wandering vagabond? It was obvious from the way she performed that she really didn't have a home to call her own and wandered from town to town. Touching her lips with her fingers once more, Ro glared down at the bag of gold on the ground.
"Fuck this, I'm going to bed early tonight," she muttered.
