POUNDCAKE / open, return

Curiosity drew Nero over, as usual. He knew nothing of demons or souls, but he did find this stranger's appearance interesting. Cute, too! He had never seen anything quite like it, although that was relatively common for the sheltered vampire. Bastilleprisoner happened to be the most familiar of those present, so Nero found himself hovering near the other feline as he cast his gaze upon Merihem. "Meri," he repeated quietly, tasting the unfamiliar word on his tongue. "I haven't seen you around before?" Nero was quite sure that he would remember an appearance like that, but the statement was still spoken like a question. It would be embarrassing if they had met in the past and Nero had just forgotten, he didn't want to insult this stranger at all.
