[font=trebuchet ms]Watching the lynx just completely flip his lid was... almost enough to make her laugh, but she maintained a straight face even as he got his head stuck in the bucket. The fact that he immediately assumed she was a scarf salesperson, however, made her raise a brow. He thought someone as scruffy as she was had any hope of selling something? Most salespeople had the good sense to at least look like decent creatures.
"No one is home," he said- she was tempted to sarcastically agree, but instead chose to let him continue babbling about the sky and giving orders. She had no clue what he was talking about, but she suspected that was the point. Before she could say anything, Nemhain arrived on the scene. Offering her a nod of acknowledgement, Rin then turned back to the lynx.
...who was now freaking out even more. By this point, Rin was used to other creatures being startled by her persona- Nemhain had even startled her the first time, so it was hardly an uncommon reaction. Unfortunately for the lynx, the two of them were sort of a package deal, so he was unlikely to get Nemhain to "vacate."
He started talking again, back and forth to himself. Rin had to admit she was a bit concerned about whatever was going on in his head- it couldn't be pleasant for him. Furrowing her brows, she said, "I'm not here to sell scarves, and we're not going to hurt you." Unless, of course, he gave either of them a reason to, but she'd get to that in a moment.
Leaning slightly towards the building but not taking a step closer, she continued, "I just want to know who you are. As long as you aren't going to hurt anyone, you have nothing to be afraid of."
