[JESUS CHRIST TAMAMO. Junpei listens to this, and just. Laughs nervously? Like. CHRIST ALIVE HE'S GOING TO GET KILLED BY A HOT FOX LADY.
But like. It's fine. There's a nervous laugh and he rubs the back of his neck, eyes wide as he listens to her and subconsciously biting his tongue to make sure it's still in his mouth.
Seems reasonable. [AHHHH.] What would make you back out of a contract besides leaving this hotel though?
[It seems even she doesn't have an immediate answer to give him, though after a pause:]
I suppose your unwillingness will suffice, if it poses a problem. I've no interest in weak-willed men of no conviction. A lady must have her standards.
[Tapping her chin, eyes slightly narrowed. They lack the primal hunger from before, and simply glance at him, curious]
I do not think that will be an issue for you. That you agreed to my terms means you have a wish worth granting, Master, above all else. I will put my faith in that for the time being.
[Is he a weak man? Sometimes...he wonders what that means. Weak-willed? Absolutely not. You do what you can to get what you want. He stands in front of her and he doesn't back away, meeting her with a similarly curious look.]
...I'm going to get both of us out of here so long as the contract's in place. You just have to work with me as best as you can.
[It's a huge leap of faith, but...yeah. He has a wish he refuses to give up here.]
[WHY IS IT ALWAYS 5'2" BEAUTIFUL WOMEN PUSHING HIM AROUND. Anyway, he stumbles a little but catches himself, looking at her before he just...nods. Maybe this should have been taken into consideration more carefully. But it's cool! It's fine!]
I won't, I won't. [He got it.] ...same goes for you though. Tamamo-chan.
[It is most likely he will accidentally drop the honorific in like a week so enjoy that.] So what now? [Where will she go, what does she want to do? He's flexible.]
[Quick as a flash again, she is all business, hands removed from Junpei's person and folded into her kimono sleeves]
Gather information. Pick our alliances carefully. I assume our kidnappers will be making some sort of move soon, so until we understand what they expect from us, it's to our disadvantage to anger anyone.
[A huff]
I don't much care for half of the people in this place, but that's of no matter. Befriend who you can and I shall do the same.
[He can do business. He shifts on his feet again but he watches her movements, keeping his posture loose and slouching a bit.]
You and I think alike on that. [Which helps.] I've been trying to talk to as many people as possible. It'll give us an idea of who we can trust and who we can't. [And by Monday morning he'll have spoken to all of them, apparently, so hope Tamamo's proud of him.]

[And suddenly she practically materializes right next to him, winding her arms around his elbow and squeezing it into a hug]
Lucky, Tamamo! You've hit the jackpot!

Still need my arm to do my job.

[She supposes she can release his arm since he asked so nicely.
She is absolutely gonna pat him on the back, though, and uh -- she's got some strength in those smacks for a 5'2" lady]
Again, Master, it will be a pleasure working with you ♥ Don't hesitate to depend on this beautiful and most reliable Servant you've acquired~
