The amusement on the mouse's face was mirrored by the smirk that sat, almost in concrete by this point. When he didn't know what to say in a situation, Seth grinned. When he felt awkward or embarassed, he grinned a little more. But when he was actually amused... Well. Ichigo would likely be able to count each individual tooth with little difficulty. "With yer tail, huh? Not bad. Not bad at all. When you can kill someone with your thumbs while hanging upside-down, we'll talk.[/b]" he pointedly ignored that hanging upside-down was one of his natural talents, instead looking skyward.
Listening to Ichigo speak about his father was extremely interesting, Seth had found. Before they had approached the subject of the man, the mouse had been altogether too concerned with social niceties and general "politeness". Seth had no use for either. "Indeed,[/b]" the bat said, stretching. "Everyone's dying. Some are just doing it faster.[/b]"
Then the bat fell strangely silent, staring down at his feet. The moment of silence turned into two, and Seth abruptly jumped up. "Come on. Let's go somewhere loud.[/b]" he commanded rather vaguely, glancing at Ichigo.

Upside-down and with his thumbs? That wasn't going to happen until he got his biped form--even then it probably wasn't going to be able to do it anyway. The mouse was about to say something, when the man interrupted his thoughts completely.
"Okay," Ichigo responded. Loud was perfectly fine with him, he supposed. Really he had nothing better to do but follow the bat. As long as they didn't end up sleeping together or something. Ichigo didn't like the concept of sleeping with another man all that much. Then again, Ichigo really hadn't had sex with that many people, so he didn't know what it would be like with another man. He wasn't about to try it. He really needed to stop thinking about it before he visibly shuddered.
The mouse stopped his thought process as she followed the bat. He was curious to know where the hell they were going, but actually didn't mind if it was a surprise.

That was the answer the bat had been hoping for. If Ichigo hadn't followed, Seth would have left anyway, but having company made things so much better. He was going to have to find a new bar, however, as he didn't want to risk running into that stupid bitch of a coyote... Especially not when he was planning on enjoying a Guy's Night Out, as it were. His ears flicked back as he walked. He had heard rumors of a nightclub on this side of town, and he had every intention of dragging Ichigo into it with him.
Sex was the last thing on Seth's mind as he walked up to the club, glancing up at the sign that proclaimed it to be "Adult's Only". Atrocious grammar aside, this was exactly what he was looking for, and he glanced back at Ichigo with a wide grin.
"We've both had a long day of confessions. Let's drink lots of hard alcohol and see if we can't find some beautiful women, hmm?[/b]" his toothy grin returned, and his ears perked as the sound of music began to drift from the club. Oh, this was looking better and better! Alcohol, women, company, and live music! Who knew what the cutters did to unwind, but the bat had a pretty good idea of how to do it. Hopefully, Ichigo wouldn't protest. "And it's on me. It's been a while since I've had someone I could unload my brain to, so I appreciate it. Just don't get any weird ideas or anything, I don't plan on starting sleeping with men with you.[/b]"

Ichigo wasn't going to argue. Especially if he didn't have to pay the bill. Ichigo had never been to a nightclub in the city before. Hell, he had never been to a nightclub a day in his life. He had gone drinking in some of the worst bars in the dead part of this city twice, and he figured that any club would be better than that.
And the prospect of women. Well. They wouldn't be what he was used to or anything. For a moment the mouse cursed his sheltered life. It was a nightmare living in a metaphorical hole for the good majority of your life. Then again when you had a father who Lorded over the entire town that you lived in, there wasn't much you could do to rebel without being caught. Getting caught was never a good thing.
"I haven't the slightest object, but I imagine if we manage to snag some women we're going our opposite ways."

Seth quirked an eyebrow, glancing at Ichigo with one hand on the door to the bar. "Yeah.[/b]" he replied, then his expression changed to one of pure amusement. "If that happens, I can't say I'll miss your company. Until then, however, you're stuck with me.[/b]" And with that, he pushed the door open and stepped into the club.
Inside it was dark, dingy, and filled with dancing bodies and the heavy smell of alcohol. Seth grinned to himself as he moved towards the bar, pressing through the crowds of dancing people. He glanced back as he pulled himself into a chair, nodding to the mouse before looking at the bottles that sat before them. "What'll you have?[/b]" he had to shout because of the volume of the music.
Oh, yes. They were going to have a good time, and there was no sign (or scent) of that infernal coyote!

Ichigo couldn't help be surprised at how many people were stuffed in one area. He had never been to such a densely packed place that was so very loud. At least he could add it to the list of places he had been and probably would never come to again unless it was suggested.
A drink? "Anything that isn't strawberry flavored," Ichigo shouted back at the bat. How anyone could stay in here and not go deaf was impossible. What the hell was even playing in the background besides pounding and the general thump of people. Ichigo couldn't imagine the amount of sex that was actually going on in this place in plain sight. He was pretty sure no one would notice. He wondered what would happen if he was his formal self in a place like this.
Maybe he should just be quiet and try not to look cute.

Seth gave Ichigo a small nod, then turned to face the over-muscled Morganberry bull that was working behind the counter. "Whiskey on the rocks for myself, and a vodka tonic for my friend here.[/b]" he gave the man a good-natured grin, then turned back to the mouse, clearly enjoying the spinning motion of the chair altogether too much. As the drinks were slid across the bar to them, Seth took a long sip of the harsh-smelling liquid, gritting his teeth at the burning in his throat.
"Auurrghhh,[/b]" he gasped, half-hissing through his teeth. "They have the good stuff here. Cheers.[/b]"
He glanced around the bar then, eagerly seeking out anyone who could provide them with at least a little bit more enjoyment. "So, Strawberry, what do you think? Not bad, huh? I must say, I enjoy the music.[/b]" Well, it was certainly loud, and rather off-pitch, but somewhere under all of the mess there seemed to be some semblance of actual "music". With his ridiculous ears, Seth must be able to pick it out. "So, you're seeking your fortunes in the Capital... Got a lady-friend back home? Gotta bring her some money and marry her so she'll feel she's honored as a woman?[/b]" again, that teasing grin had appeared.

Ichigo took his drink, carefully removing the lime wedge with the clever use of the straw that had been provided to him. After a bit of a struggled he managed to get it out and pop it in his mouth so he could suck on it a bit. It was a little weird, but he couldn't give a wit. He returned the lime to its proper place before speaking.
"It's going to take me a while to finish this one, good stuff or not." The mouse tipped over his glass and took a sip. Mostly tonic rather than vodka was a very good thing. Still burned a bit though. Lovely.
"The music is... I didn't know it was music to be honest," he said with a snort. Angry screaming more so than music. At least some angry screaming was in tune, he would give it that. He spun around to give the bat an odd look when he made the second comment. "If I had a lady, I wouldn't be here. It probably would have been more honorable if I stayed home and took a "proper job" some place. And how about you? Do you have any sort of Lady Friend?"

"Fine by me. Just means I don't have to spend as much money on you.[/b]" he continued to sip on his beverage, taking much smaller sips after the initial one. He looked around the bar, one ear flicked backwards to the mouse as he spoke to show him that he was, despite all appearances, still paying attention.
Angry screaming was a pretty good way to describe it, but angry screaming honestly suited Seth. He was grinning as the song peaked out, glancing at Ichigo. "I could see where you'd get that impression. Hope the next song is more to your liking, then.[/b]" he snorted as the song they were currently playing drew to a close, and the next song begun immediately after with a throat-burning scream. Well, so much for that.
At his question, Seth's posture shifted almost immediately to one of discomfort. His ears flicked backwards as his fur bristled. Damn it, he had no idea how best to answer that question. Heilyn was extremely confusing, and there just wasn't an easy way to discuss their... situation. "I had sex with a girl who's name I didn't know and I can't stop thinking about her,[/b]" he finally replied, giving Ichigo a look.
