Three Steps from Masquerade[Amaranta, Klein, Saber]
Wed May 17, 2023 2:15 pm
AMARANTA VALERIA | BURNING LIONESS
In a sudden turn of unexpected events within the span of an hour, Amaranta had bore witness to an Arrancar being born and forming into existence after removing her mask. It was a grand sight to behold, no doubt, but after the quick realization set in that she promised to uphold her end of the bargain, she contacted the man of the hour Saber had told her about regarding any assistance relating to her condition. From the looks of it, she looked rather loopy, and the leonine woman wasn't going to play around with touching anything she didn't understand.
Yo. You sure do get around a lot, don'tcha? Lmao. Anyway, there's this huge arrancar lady who was just a huge fuckin' hollow in my arms. She said something about you being willing to help her. Heading over to you now. Send me a location so we can get to the bottom of this.
Oh, by the way, she's naked lol. P sure you'll enjoy yourself with that one.
See ya, soon little man <3
Cleaving an opening in the space once she received a location proper, Amaranta would carry the tall woman over her shoulder, stepping through to arrive at a Beachouse in the Marquesas, pressing the door open with a fist. This would be an interesting day...
"We're here! Look what the Lioness dragged in."

Saber was a little...out of it. No, perhaps more accurately, she was exhausted.
All at once, all of the screaming, the crackling, the slow creeping slivers of her own thoughts and personality intruding on itself had ended all at the same moment. And so...she was exhausted. As if she had been awake for months and suddenly she had a moment's quiet to rest. And well, with nothing immediately around to endanger her, she'd practically collapsed on the spot. Snatched up in Amaranta's arms, more or elss bundled up in the shreds of her old Gillian Coal, she was curled up in Amaranta's grasp, clutching her newly formed Zanpaku'to.
And more or less, sleeping throughout the trip as she was carried off somewhere. Certainly if she weren't so tired she would be rather amused that Amaranta was being so vigilant about their agreement.
Something to enjoy later, no doubt.

KLEIN
Klein was smart enough, at the very least, to quickly run through the possibilities of who Amaranta would be talking about when she sent him a message. After all, there were only so many Hollows that he met, and fewer still that he'd have told enough about himself for them to actually give Amaranta a description like that. He'd have liked to keep doing his research down here in the lab, but, well, this was probably worth his time. Especially if Amaranta was telling the truth in that text. After taking a few moments to prepare, Klein cut a descorrer and walked into his quiet beach home, a luxurious but aggressively remote home.
And just in time, it seemed, to watch his girl bring in an unfamiliar face with a few very familiar traits. The...well, they were tusks he was fairly certain, but horns now, and energy he was at least fairly confident he recognized.
"Seems like you had a pretty good hunt, huh? Well, lay her down, if she's here I said I'd help, and I imagine making her a little more comfortable counts, right?"
The place certainly had ample space to lay the new Arrancar, whether on one of the several sofas or on the almost comically large bed. Wherever didn't concern him much, admittedly. There was a rather sharp glint to Klein's eye, his mind still somewhat in the state it was when he was at work in the lab, and the thought of what he could do to such a lovely lady while she was asleep was, frankly, secondary to how he should handle this in the more immediate.

AMARANTA VALERIA | BURNING LIONESS
"I suppose you could say something like that. It wasn't much of the hunt I wanted, though, but this is plenty entertaining to observe in its own right. Anyway, I'll set her somewhere nice."
Truth be told, her words just now were the genuine article. She went into the Menos Forest looking for a hunt, but found herself presented with something that was far more engaging than hunting down the strongest mindless beast in a forest. Frankly speaking, a hunt like that could wait another day. This is where her real interest lied at the moment. Amaranta decided to set her along on the comically large bedframe, for no other reason than the sheer size the woman boasted, which was taller than her by several inches. Something that honestly reminded her of Kanako. Another overgrown woman, eh? Guess Klein was hitting the female lottery these past few months, huh? Sitting by the bedside, she turned her gaze on Klein.
"There we go. You know... Its kind of hilarious that she'd come out looking like a woman right up your alley. Lady luck seems to be favoring you something pretty fierce, Klein."
Of course, that was all up to how she reacted in her new environment. Which made spectating very interesting at the moment.

Saber stirred ever so slightlyas she was set down on the rather large expanse of bed. Shifting only slightly to gently tighten her grip on her zanpaku'to in her sleep. for all the world rather out of it. Her exhaustion had still taken priority, and in her present state, that low, subliminal awareness of her surroundings, she did not pick up on any spiritual pressures she wasn't familiar with. And so as she was laid out, she relaxed, and a better sense of her was able to be taken.
She was indeed quite large. As one might expect from one evolved from her particular rung of the hollow ladder. Certainly she seemed stable. No fluctuations in her spiritual pressure. all the normal signs of a healthy arrancar. Estigma, mask fragments. And the Hollow hole there on her left arm, straight through the bicep.
Her eyes opened ever so slightly as Amaranta settled beside her, but they didn't quite focus on anything. A soft noise escaping her nostrils. Awake, but not quite alert. In the early stages of rousing from her sleep, woefully snipping such budding notions that may have seeded in Klein's mind. But all the same, perhaps assuaging some worries that might have otherwise formed.
"We're on Earth..." She observed.

KLEIN
"Think so? I'm not so sure about that myself, but hey, who'm I to disagree with the pretty lady."
Klein's tone wasn't one of conceding to the much larger woman, but rather a distant, nearly dismissive one, as if something else was still his primary concern at present. After all, he didn't exactly think that lady luck was giving him much to work with right about now. Anything going well for him was something he'd worked for, and he had too much on his plate to keep fucking around trying to pick up girls, much to his dismay.
His eyes moved over to Saber's now-humanoid form on his bed, and rather than the usual lustful gaze he'd have cast on a woman like this, his eyes were sharp, studious even. Despite his short stature and his childish appearance, there was decidedly a seriousness to Klein's demeanor at present that made him almost seem like someone else entirely.
"Yeah, this is my house. Nice to see you again, though I'm kinda surprised you look like this. Good look on you, though."
Almost someone else entirely. He was, after all, still Klein.

AMARANTA VALERIA | BURNING LIONESS
"Really now? I thought you'd be over the stars. Doesn't matter to me much, either way. I'm just upholding my end of the bargain. Promise is a promise, right? If you don't want her, I'll take her. I could use another sparring partner."
Amaranta chortled softly, her gaze locked on the arrancar waking up from her rest. Most of her interest lied in Saber at the moment. A genuine curiosity about her potential skills and abilities moving forward, the possibility of being able to train with and fight someone else. What would her future entail? How would it enfold? In much the same way Klein's mind was focused elsewhere, Amaranta was housing thoughts of what lied ahead in this woman's future. Cocking her head to the side in curious glee, the leonine woman nodded to Saber as she remained at her bedside.
"What he said, lady. You asked me to bring you to the little man who could help. So here we are. How you feeling?"

Saber slowly sat up from the bed, the cloak slipping from her shoulders as she started to rise up. And in an instant, her head was a bit above Klein's and almost up to Amaranta's chest despite still being seated. She blinked a few times before she let her eyes slowly drift to the pair of them, and then down to the sword in her grasp. She recognized what it was. Instinctively, after all it was a piece of her. But all the same, she let her gaze shift around to her surroundings, and she noticed the shift in Klein's demeanor from before. At least somewhat. Truth be told, she had not seen some of Klein's more insidious or..... lustful behaviors. After all, she had been a gillian. And so, by comparison to her own experience, he was about as flirtatious as he had been beforehand, if only a little more.
"I half expected you to have a blade in my face. You're rather good-natured for an arrancar." She murmured toward Amaranta, before glancing over to Klein, a slight twitch and swivel of her ears as she eyed him. Not tired, but there was a sudden, sharp astuteness to them as she seemed to study every inch of him in the span of a second. and she recognized the look he was giving her.
This certainly explained his behavior prior, and she couldn't help but wonder if he planned on bringing her to that little boss of his. "You seem pensive. And not as ...'psyched' as she seems to think you aught to be. Something on your mind?" She ventured calmly, before slowly standing up, taking a brief moment to let her eyes scan the place. A brief sniff to scent the air. Was this where he spent a lot of time? Where Amaranta spent a lot of time? What other smells would she find?
"I'm feeling...... clear headed. It's... nice... and quiet. And a little weird." She murmured softly.

KLEIN
"Well, I'm definitely not complaining, pretty lady. You just called when my head was in somethin' else. Last thing I'm gonna do is turn down someone like her."
Collecting his thoughts, Klein made an effort to take his head out of the lab and back into the immediate. Last thing he wanted to do was let a gift like this go to waste, both in terms of the fine lady and her capabilities. His somewhat stern expression lightened, and he sized up Saber with a more typically "Klein" eye, stopping at all her curves.
"Like I said, just been a little busy is all. Wouldn't have expected you comin' by without the mask on, you know. But clear headed's good. You get used to it after a while."
Taking a seat on the bed himself, Klein patted the spot next to him in an almost expectant, authoritative manner as he looked to Amaranta. After all, he was in charge here.
"Got any plans now that you're a little more agreeable, not quite as scary? You oughta try a milkshake, I don't imagine you got any of those as a menos."

AMARANTA VALERIA | BURNING LIONESS
Throughout this three-way conversation, Amaranta's attention remained wholly on Saber, her gaze akin to that of a curious child discovering something that seemed utterly foreign to them, and by that degree alone, worth further exploration. What type of abilities would she possess now? Would she be another rival? Another friend? Her mind had already drowned out Klein's reply regarding his pleasure or displeasure, settled entirely on the large woman on the bed.
"I don't know if I'd call it good-natured, but eh, I'll let you have that one. Like I said, a deal was a deal. I never saw someone else remove their mask before, so I guess you could say I'm curious about you."
Reorienting her gaze to Klein, Amaranta cast her eyes at the side of the bed he seemed to be beckoning her towards, but like a stubborn feline, she paid no heed to it at the moment. Curiosity was at the forefront. Getting intimately close could wait a minute.
"The taste of hollow is the only thing you probably ever knew, right? and probably something you still might know depending on what you do next, but there are other things on earth you can try. You got milkshakes around the house, little man?"
