"I guess that makes sense," the girl agreed as she continued to fix her hair. Unlike Larissa, Mickey hadn't asked about how they'd gotten where they were. She had heard some of the conversation before, and for the most part the half demon had just accepted that they were now in Mercunias and away from Rian.

"She's eating downstairs," the man continued, "I don't know how much you've heard but this turned out to be a pleasure excursion. So please enjoy yourself these next few days."

"Alright." She didn't speak for the moment; there wasn't much to say. "... What's there to do here?"

"What's there not to do here?" the man questioned back with a smile, "There's fishing, swimming, parties on the island of nobles during the night, many places to eat, a large shopping area, and that's just to list a few things. There are even wedding chapels around here if you want to get married. You all are way past the age of wedding yet you're all single. It's quite disturbing actually."

"What are you talknig about?" the half demon questioned. "I'm only sixteen. I'm not even old enough to get married!"

"You're that old?" the man questioned, making a faux expression of horror, "Here it's customary to be married when you enter into your teens. Are your parents in disgrace?"

"No!" Mickey was starting to get annoyed. "Look, in my world, you have to be, like, 18, at the youngest to get married!"

"How... old..." the man stated blankly, "But if you're going to get married to that arrogant little boy, you should probably do it now. Then you can argue for an eternity. After all, they say the one you marry will follow you even in death."

The girl's face turned scarlet in an instant. "I am not marrying Claw," she hissed, her tone accompanied by an insulted expression.

"Ah, then you love someone else?" he questioned, "Although I can't see why you would argue with someone so much if you didn't like them."

"I argue with him because I don't like him," Mickey informed the man. "And, no, I don't love someone else. I'm just a kid."

"You're a woman... You've menstruated, correct?" the man asked rhetorically, "That would make you a woman here. What a strange world you must live in though..."

Mickey's face was so hot it was practically steaming. "You might think so," she managed to say, "But I think your world is strange. Mine seems just fine to me."

"Ah... you look like a lobstar..." the man pointed out, chuckling at the girl when he saw the girl's face. "Is it really so embarrassing? Every woman does it, correct?" he spoke, "And who knows, you may be taken against your will before you can go home. Might as well marry someone you love..."

"But I don't love anyone!" the girl snapped, not caring if she woke anyone up. She didn't even address the rest of what Hari said; it was best to try and let it die.
