I've only my own experiences to draw from, but demons don't waste much time when there's something they want.

That nothing else has happened might mean it's cautious, however. [Tone implying that is super bad for them, mmm] If only I had my talismans. Or any of my abilities, really.
[Anyway]
I'm afraid I can't offer much insight into where it's going. It might prey on weak hearts, or those with appetites as voracious as Polly-san's.
It probably wanted to see what we would do today. [Which was, as it turns out, a whole lot of bullshit and running in circles.] I have someone working on talismans that might help, but we won't know just yet.
Well, you think he's a dumbass so that doesn't surprise me. [There's a very light tone, but haha.] You...wait, you didn't actually sleep with Polly, did you?
[He's not clarifying the question about the talisman maker until she answers?? So he lifts an eyebrow back? DID THE FOX FUCK A GHOST, INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW.]
Yeah. A tragedy. [Nope, the deadpan is back.] She seemed like she wanted to be everyone's type but never quite fit. If the demon's not with her anymore then we have an even bigger problem.

Do we even know anyone as thirsty as Polly?
no subject
[Or at least she can keep it under wraps with a lot more poise than-- wait rewind that first bit]
Eh?! Truly? There's someone with skill in making talismans?
[CHOMPING DOWN ON HER SPOON]
Mmmmmrr, I've lost to Master's usefulness once again...! Even sleeping with Polly-san can't compare!

[That's the conclusion he just reached, gomen.]
no subject
[That doesn't narrow it down at all for her, I'm sorry.
Also at that question:
She just
stares at him
and lifts an eyebrow]

[Ugh, he's lucky he's cute and technically the "Master" in this situation or she'd smother him in his sleep for giving her sass]
I took advantage of a presented opportunity, nothing more and nothing less~
no subject
Nice.
[Yeah, that kind of helps him feel better lmao god.]
no subject
Actually laughing, somehow tickled by his reaction.
Possibly a little relieved as well.]
Oi, Master, don't misunderstand! I only wanted to see if I could catch sight of the demon while I was visiting.
no subject
Oh yeah? That's pretty smart thinking. [NOT EVEN CONCERNED, TAMAMO CAN TAKE CARE OF HERSELF.] What happened?
no subject
[Says she, talking about it like she tasted some mediocre ice cream]
A demon certainly didn't jump out at me, which was a real pity.
no subject
Where did it go?
