Hope and Despair [Jinki]

He couldn't hold back a chuckle at the other as they walked. "Morning is alright if that is when you have the time and proper decision, so do not worry about that," he said gently placing a hand on Jinki's shoulder. At the pheonix's response, he called over a young man to serve as his escort back to Seventh Sanctum. The boy was one of the few humans that he had employed so he knew that the other would be safe traveling in his company. "This is Youki, he will take you back to the hotel," he said motioning towards the human as he spoke. He lead the two of them to the front door to see his guest off. "Travel safely, and I will see you tomorrow," he bowed slightly smiling and watching the other depart. He was hoping that the other would choose not to stay in the relms of the Northern part of the city, it would make claiming him as a pet much easier.

"Alright...I'll remember that. Thank you..." Jinki said, smiling at Mao. He glanced at the human, Youki, and nodded. "You are too kind, Mao-san...thank you again...I'll return in the morning, so I shall see you than," he said as he and the boy were taken to the door, lead by Mao. Jinki bowed politely in return, and followed Youki outt he door and through the streets. He didn't expect the boy to take him all the way back to Seventh Sanctum, but he did.When they arrived, Jinki thanked the boy profusely, watching him leave before heading inside and up to the top floor of the hotel to his room and office to flop, still clothed, onto his bed.
