The hunter expected fear, for the red-head to say sorry but instead she was met with the woman just blabbering on. Her expression dropped as she stared at the female before her. Hunters that do that? Can’t be an excuse? Sophia wasn’t going to use being a hunter as an excuse. The girl had commented on her height. Something that was extremely sensitive to the girl and her reaction was to pull out a gun from anger. She moved so the gun was pointing past her and Sophia threw her hands up dramatically.

She just kept on talking. Sophia eyed the female as her arms lowered to position themselves at her side as her dog sat down and kept looking between the two females. Tongue out as he sat there, eyes bright with wonder. His pure white fur glistened in the sun but no one was even noticing him. “You don’t go around commenting on height, it’s disrespectful,” Sophia began, stopping the woman as she stated she was not very skilled with social interactions. “Obviously you are not skilled but that still does not give you the right. I know I’m… Different but you don’t need to openly state it.” Sophia spewed, showing that she was still quite upset with the woman.

Sophia didn’t even really acknowledge the fact the woman had brought her bow and arrow to align with her waist until she said something. “Fuck off. I wasn’t going to shoot you. I was hoping for a god damn sorry, you ignorant child.” She commented as she slid her gun back into her holster. She threw her hands back up, cheeks and nose growing red from anger. "Do you think I'm that stupid? To attempt to shoot you in a public area?"

Her nose curled up as she released a slight huff from her throat. She saw the humor dancing in this woman's eyes and she was half tempted to just hit her. Punch her straight in the stomach and keep doing it. She'd punch her in the head but... Sophia had to look up just a bit so she could even look at this woman's face. This just pissed her off even more though, the fact the woman said something about her height and now the hunter couldn't get it off her mind.

"I do have a heart. Only for my dog though." 

She went to bend down to pet the dog but suddenly it turned, lifting it's head to Dehlia. The dog began to sniff wildly all around her feet and shoes, then up to the bow and arrow then to her pockets. He was feverish for attention, tongue out and tail wagging as he pushed his head against the woman's leg as Sophia just stood there, half way to the ground with a dead expression.

Her dog just fudging (Because we all know Sophia wants to keep saying the .... The naughty word) chose some random woman over HER.

Sophia wasn’t even prepared to listen to this woman’s words. Honestly, she knew already it would be a bunch of rambling on and she was not prepared to hear it. Her eyes grew lazy and dull as she stared at her, going on about how she had people making jokes about height because of how tall she was. Well, yes, there were people like that but unfortunately, height was a very sensitive topic for Sophia. She knew why, because all her life people liked picking on her for being too short to reach or do certain things and it actually hurt her feelings. But would she admit this to a complete stranger? Hell no. With a roll of her eyes, she nodded as if to agree to get the lady to shut up.

She didn’t even want to respond. Instead, she just let her continue on. Of course the woman had a point, they had just met. She didn’t know if she’d get upset or not over the fact she commented on her height but she wasn’t going to admit she was right. Also though, she shouldn’t just open her mouth and comment on someone’s height after just meeting them. She didn’t think it was very kind in her own eyes.

“I don’t care that you brought it out. I shouldn’t have brought my gun out.” She stated, completely disregarding everything else the woman was saying. She was growing tired of talking and listening to this one blabber on. God, she had a mouth. Too much talking. Staring at her with a blank stare, she nodded. “I wouldn’t take chances either but these so called psychopaths would be obvious I would think. They’d run rampant and I wouldn’t just shoot somebody because they comment on my height. Yes, I pulled my gun out, but usually when I do that I get an immediate sorry. So yes, Thank you for the sorry.” Sophia commented, her voice roughening up as she was becoming annoyed. She didn’t even enjoy talking this much, it was too much for her and it bothered her she even had to talk to someone today.

As Sophia stood there, glaring at her dog and accepting the fact her dog chose an unknown woman over her. It broke her heart just a little, but it eased up once she noticed how happy Nico was with the fact the woman was scratching his ear. The dog quickly stuck his tongue out repeatedly, attempting to lick at the girl’s face as she crouched down with a smile.

“His name is Nico. He enjoys his chest rubbed. It makes his leg kick.” Yes, she could be a dick but she also enjoyed watching her dog become happy. Obviously this woman was no threat to her so she had to act nice or she’d get the silent treatment from Nico for the rest of the night. Sophia didn’t want that. “I’m Sophia. I was rude to act that way.”

Nico glanced over to Sophia before looking back to Dehlia and attempting to lick her face before just letting his tongue stick out once more and his body slowly slide as he went to lay on the ground. Showing that he wanted more love.

The female simply stared down at the red-haired woman. She did have a point… Psychopaths didn’t look like psychopaths and killers didn’t look like killers. Her uncle Ripley… Well, he had shown obvious signs of insanity but she had never thought he’d do what he had done. For a split second, her heart hammered against her chest at the very thought of the man and the fateful night. Many had heard about what happened and that was what she was known for. Hence why she didn’t often give her last name because she knew she would get crazed looks.

It was obvious her dog was enjoying himself entirely too much but Sophia had no say in what her dog was allowed to do. He was basically like his own person with the way he acted. The dog made his own choices, when he wanted to walk, when he wanted to eat and drink. All that fancy stuff. Watching as the woman rubbed the dog’s chest, the dog began to kick his leg when Dehlia hit the spot. Nico’s tongue rolled out of his mouth and he began to pant heavily and the leg just kept going.

“Nice to meet you, Dehlia. It is fine, stuff like that happens. You didn’t know it was a sensitive topic. It happens.” Sophia commented. She wanted to be nice, to act nice. Dehlia obviously had made a mistake and by the way her face covered itself in a slight blush, she knew she was telling the truth. The poor female must have done that quite often, hitting peoples’ sore spots. It was a mistake, and mistakes happened. Sophia was not about to hold it against her, especially that it was obvious she did this often. 

Glancing to the female once more, she watched as her shoulders slumped a little. Brows furrowing, she looked to the bow rested on her back. “So, are you a hunter, Dehlia?” She questioned with a somewhat smirk. She brought herself to her knees to make herself more leveled with the woman, her hand extending out to rub Nico's stomach gently.

She spoke of being part of security for a rich man and Sophia’s eyebrow raised with curiosity. Who was the rich man and what type of security did he actually require? Money wasn’t something Sophia had to worry about much. Her adoptive mother gave her money when she needed it and with her being a hunter, Sophia often hunted down Androids, cyborgs or Magi to take their limbs and such to sell on the black market for money. It was an easy job for her most of the time.

“I am a Hunter. Magi hunter. It puts food on the table and keeps my dog here healthy.” She stated calmly. She did what she had to do for Nico’s sake. Nico was her top priority and the only living creature she actually cared for other than herself. Anyone else was dead to her basically. Literally. She had no family, Ripley wasn’t what she considered a family member for what he had done.

Sophia allowed a smile to cross her lips as the woman went on about animals. At this point the woman was growing use to her constant talking and didn’t really mind it. It was obvious that was how she was and she was an outgoing person or pushed herself to be that way. She didn’t mind, people had different ways of associating with others. “Animals are a blessing…” She stated, looking down to Nico.

The dog had lifted himself from the ground with tail wagging and his tongue sticking out. He looked between both of the girls and began to pant, eyes closing for a moment. Sophia shifted her gaze to the dog. “Animal lovers aren’t that bad.” Nico looked up to Sophia, a bark coming from him as he looked between the woman once more. “Do you have any animals? If you don’t, would you want one?” If the girl wanted an animal, it would give Sophia a reason to keep talking to her. Not that she had fallen for the woman but she had taken a fair interest in the woman and if the woman wanted an animal, Sophia would go out of her way to get her number or some sort of contact information and get her one.

Friends, she needed them right? To seem normal? She thought so.

Sophia had her reasons for becoming a magi hunter. She had done it because she wished to become better than her uncle. She wanted to be more powerful and skilled than the man so she was aiming to become that by being a hunter. The human could train and work hard every day and she found that magi made it much more easier for her because of the fear they held and their powers.

Nodding, she smiled at the woman. “That is nice. What made you choose spirits, if you don’t mind me asking of course.” The hunter was curious and she wanted to know why she would choose the spirits. Of course, their was nothing against it. The woman could have said she was training to become a magi hunter and Sophia would still ask the same question.

Money was important and Sophia knew that. She had everything she wanted when her parents were alive. As soon as she lost them, it all went down hill. She had nothing and was never given anything. The orphanage cared for her and fed her. They clothed her and that was about the best they could do themselves. The lady that had adopted her was kind enough to put all the money she could get to Sophia, giving her the chance to attend school. Yet, thinking about it, she knew she still had the position at the academy when she returned.

With a slight chuckle, the woman nodded to the girl’s rambling about getting a dog and wondering if she could train it to detect spirits. “You know, that is really smart. You should try asking them. I can bet you they will allow it if it means helping them with hunting spirits.” Glancing down to her dog, she nodded to Nico. “Nico here aids me in my hunts sometimes. He’s very intelligent and can sense just about anything.”

As she shifted her weight onto her left foot, she released a soft sigh. “If you want, I can try looking for a dog for you. What kind of breed would you consider?”
