c 'Of course not, I have no fucking idea what I'm doing...' Kana mentally responded, steadying her balance likely out of sheer willpower, anything to avoid the ones responsible for her current sad state. Kagune... Right... Kagunes were a ghoul's own personal weapon or something. Chancing a glance over her shoulder she was relieved to find nothing was popping out from her basically exposed back. There wasn't much she knew about kagunes, or really anything related to ghoul kind. Her mother tended to avoid bringing work home, unfortunately it ended up following her. Kana would have to learn on her own, if she had any intention of surviving, which at the moment, yes, she wasn't exactly ready to kick the bucket just yet. 'I don't know if I actually killed anyone back there, just forced them aside...' She noted, almost frustrated with herself, but hey, she was new to this whole... Being a ghoul thing. Of course she couldn't possibly be expected to know right away how to control and use her new strength, including what she could only assume to be her own kagune. Just as suddenly as it appeared it vanished, leaving no trace behind that it was there to begin with. Well, aside from the blood, of course... Shifting her gaze back on the ghoul she offered a short nod of her head, confirming his assumptions. I don't know how many there are. She answered truthfully, not exactly having the time to do a damn head count on her way out. Truthfully she expected the guy to take back his offer, especially when considering he acknowledged were they to be caught they were as good as dead. Outnumbered, overpowered, you do the math they didn't stand a snowball's chance in hell. Openly she tensed, clearly hearing him make mention a direct concern having to do with other ghoul kind. 'So then there are ghouls out there that would want to make a meal out of me.' Great, as if she didn't have enough on her plate to worry about. Ugh, don't think about food, Kana... In an instant she refocused on him, with a paranoid narrow of her different colored set of eyes, one hand still resting on the wall for support. Imagine her surprise when all he did was offer her uncomfortably exposed body some coverage with his own jacket at that. Her expression softened its glare, taking a look of genuine surprise, meeting his gaze slightly wide eyed, lips partially parted. Dumbly she followed him with her eyes first, trained on his back, as instructed. Hesitating her hands absently clutched the opposite sides of the open jacket, taking the first step in his retreating direction, then another and another. Her bare feet pattered after him, the tension easing from her petite body, finding comfort in the warmth and shelter of sorts his jacket provided. It was big enough on her that the hem reached right around mid-thigh. There were so many questions she wanted to ask but perhaps afraid of being left alone, to fend for herself, is what kept her mouth shut. Silently trailing after the ghoul with a mixture of gratitude and paranoia. Cleansing herself of the filth that clung to her skin and hair was an opportunity she couldn't so easily turn down. Of course the chance of having somewhere safe to hide was extremely tempting in itself too, assuming he wasn't simply luring her into a trap. Kana was too exhausted to put up much of a fight, logical reasoning be damned. She was certain had she simply aimlessly wandered the rogues would have easily snatched her back up sooner or later. Given her severe lack of energy and nutrition Kana was all too relieved to find the stranger's residence was fairly close, possibly explaining how he found her to begin with. She didn't care to ask the details, again not wanting to purposely make him regret taking her in. The scent of humans hit her strong when entering the apartment building, making her shudder and subconsciously quicken her pace, shortening the distance between her and the ghoul. Whatever self control she had left was quickly dying out on her. Obviously he had to be hiding in plain sight, so to speak, to be living under the same roof as humans. If she went savage she'd likely risk him losing his home. Be it he intended to eat her or not, she wasn't so cold hearted to out him as a ghoul. So she kept her head bowed, tugging the jacket tighter around her, praying none of his neighbors passed by. By some miracle of sorts they, for the most part, made the journey uninterrupted without trouble. Really, she shouldn't have been so relieved the moment she stepped foot into his apartment, the door shutting behind her, once again willingly trapping herself. It was so terribly obvious just how much Kana was at his mercy, but it was a risk she had decided to take. Again, she honestly didn't have much if any choice at all on the matter. The second scent that flooded her senses was the strong smell of bitter coffee filling the space. Is it true... Ghouls can drink coffee? Kana asked, pulling the hood down, idly standing by the front door as she took the time to take a good look at her new surroundings. There was nothing that screamed home to her, but hey it was better then sleeping on a pile of garbage.
