As soon as the little girl started moving towards the scent of cold, Lucci was up, following her, large form moving slowly close behind her, just in case she caught her foot on an open root or tripped on a twig, it’d be easy to catch her, she seemed to know where she was going but that didnt mean he’d leave her on her own.
And then there was snow, everywhere, it was like a frozen wasteland, but just in one spot and when the little girl squealed ‘mommy’ well… it was a quick guess but Lucci could only assume Logia, that assumption proving correct when the young woman appeared from the very snowflakes themselves.
He remained silent until spoken too, tail languidly swishing side to side. He nodded, before fur began receding into his body, clothing becoming visible from under the thick winter coat, muscle re-shaping, moving beneath flesh until he was once again the human man he naturally was.
“Mmmm not quite no, however I mean you and your daughter no harm, she found me.”
It was a natural reaction to be mistrusting. Not everyday you got to see another user, especially around the village, and definitely not one that looked like that man. He didn’t seem weak. Far from it actually.
It made her feel three times as wary upon realizing that. The temperature dropped further and she looked directly at the other man’s eyes. Lynette was smiling at him but Monet wasn’t. If he had wanted to hurt Lynette he had had plenty of time before, but he didn’t. And yet that wasn’t enough for Monet to relax.
He said he meant no harm, but that wouldn’t make her any less cautious. Something inside of her told her that the Zoan that had found her daughter was a very dangerous being, and yet Monet had never heard a word about him. She didn’t remember ever seeing a poster with his face on it, and that just made it all weirder.
Despite how odd the situation was Monet didn’t forget about her good manners and , as Lynette nuzzled her neck she spoke again.
— ❝ Thanks for taking care of her.❞
But that was about everything she wanted to say to that man. She turned and begun walking towards the village. Monet wanted to get to Helen’s mansion, bath Lynette and put her to sleep soon, but a part of her told her to go anywhere but to her house, because what if that guy followed? Anyway, she had to shop for some groceries, so she might as well do it now.
