Don't Care Bear

[Bear]

Bear had been enjoying his life as a person. The god Rhaego granted him the humanoid body and he took to it right away. He often hung out with Crimson, but when the boy had business of his own Bear sought his own amusement. He had come to the suburb to visit Hana But he had lost the address Crimson gave him so now he was walking down a street trying to sniff out a trail, but ohh how the bars distracted him and he stood outside of one now. "Bloody 'ell did she pick this town for the drinkin?" he mused to himself.

[Hana Tachiban]

Hana had no idea that Bear was in town to visit her. She'd have definitely cleaned up and put on makeup otherwise. The little half-'pire was on her way back from the store, a paper bag of groceries (read as: liquor) in her arms, almost completely obscuring her view. The tiny brawler was was makeupless and uncharacteristically dressed down in a flannel button-down and ripped jeans. Her curls were messily piled on top of her head, and she looked ever the teen (the man at the liquor store had carded her three times, just to be sure).
The sidewalk on the way to her house got tricky sometimes. She nearly stumbled on a crack in the cement and stopped to put down her bag. It was then that she saw Bear just a few storefronts down, looking epic and majestic in all of his ginger glory.
"BEAR!" she exclaimed, abandoning her haul to race toward the were and promptly leap up at him.

[Bear]

Bear was a jolly sort. This new form hadnt altered his personlity at all and in fact he was effortlessly jolly and doggish. If he had a tail he wouldve wagged it when he saw Hana. "There you are!" As dogs did not handle being away from their loved ones seeing one as familiar to him as hana had him overjoyed. He held his arms out to give her a mighty hug. "Hana! I decided t' visit ya. 'ave ya any food or drinks on ya? This place is fulla bars."

[Hana Tachiban]

Hana latched onto Bear like a spider monkey, winding all of her limbs around his sturdy form. His human form was so nice. Rhaego had done a great job. "I just left the grocery store! Wanna walk home with me? I'll cook for you. stretch my culinary legs. You seen Crimson recently? His phone must be broken, otherwise I'm almost certain that he would have at least called me by now. Poor guy doesn't even know his phone doesn't work."

[Bear]

Bear chuckled deeply, when he hooted at the end of his laughter it sounded like howling. "If he's dodgin' his motha i could drag 'im home." The dogman reassured Hana. It was funny being taller than people now. He felt pretty cool that he could carry hana. "You cook??" he exclaimed then quite elated over the idea of more people food."And no scraps?"

[Hana Tachiban]

"Yes!" she happily exclaimed, climbing down to her feet. She went and fetched the bag and offered it to the man. "Here, you carry it, it's heavy. Anything in particular that you want to eat?" Hana didn't eat people food, but she'd gotten a lot better at cooking it. She used to make meals for the other cokeheads when they had burnout parties at her house. "I'll make anything!"

Hana lived maybe two blocks away. Her old Victorian house was tucked in the back of a suburb with two big oak trees obscuring the front yard. "I would have cleaned the house if I knew you were coming, so sorry in advance," she murmured as she unlocked the door.

[Bear]

Bear oh so obediently took Hana's bag. It was easy to get bear to do your favors when you were an old friend, like any good dog he was loyal. "Ah Hana i roll in mud and you want to tell me that its messy?" he exclaimed as they walked into the lovely old home. "As for what to eat. Id love any kind of meat and alcohol. Having thumbs makes that whole bussines a lot easier!"

[Hana Tachiban]

Hana laughed a good genuine laugh. "If meat and alcohol are the only two things I have to adhere to, I think we'll be in business." She led him into the kitchen and began rummaging through the fridge, where there was plenty of food (not much at all) to be cooked. "It looks like I've got steak. You'll eat that, right? Sometimes the neighbors bring me food because they think I'm too skinny." She pulled it out and took it to the counter. "The cabinet over there has liquor."

[Bear]

Bear looked around, marveling at his surroundings. "Wow you cant keep stuff on a counter or table to keep me form getting to it now!" He smiled broadly. "Aye ill 'ave a steak and yer not skinny yer jus' small. I used to be your mount even!" he exclaimed as he made his way to the glorious liquor cabinet. He popped it open "any preference?"

[Hana Tachiban]

While Bear readied their drinks, Hana started cooking the steak (cooking here is a loose term. . .she mostly just heated it). "Uhh. . .whiskey, straight. So, what do you do nowadays? Besides take ridiculously good care of yourself. Has anyone talked to you about becoming a model? You'd be very good at it."

[Bear]

Bear actually did take very good care of himself. He pulled out the whiskey an the rum and walked back up to the wee vampire. "Augh, im nothing special. Crimmy he jes took me out to get me some things, said we looked like old friends tha way. I like beards too, I learned to trim it. do i look like a proper human Hana lass?"he asked as he set the bottles down on the counter.

[Hana Tachiban]

Hana put the steak on a plate and walked it over to Bear. When he asked if he looked like a proper human, she reached out and ruffled his beard with her forefinger and thumb. "Had I not known you before this, I'd never know the difference," she admitted. She retrieved two glasses and poured them both their respective drinks. "Let's toast! You've done that before, yeah? To. . .uh, what do you want to toast to?"

[Bear]

Bear, flashing a big old smile, as truly what could be described as an anti-mikhail. He was rougher, more on the jolly side and had a shabby-chic look to him like a manly Irish model would.He was getting good with his hands too, quickly nsatching up the glass he raised it. "well im glad i'm gettin' good at it. what to toast to..eh, here's to 'avin thumbs. I can actually do toasts now!" Bear was a jolly chap.

[Hana Tachiban]

Hana clinked her glass against Bear's and finished her whiskey in one drink. "To thumbs!" She sat down at the counter and gestured for Bear to join her, pointing suggestively at the steak. "You're probably starving."

[Bear]

Sweet, jolly bear was satisfied with that and took a long swig before setting the glass down. He dug right ino the steak very much like the weredog at every meal, as if it wast he best goddamned meal ever. "So what are ya up to Hana? Im in a merc group, working like it's police force, so kind of what I used to do with you a long time ago." another chomp and he was gnawing on the bone, he had finished the steak in a matter of minutes.
