( The fox startles him, losing hold of his phone as it drops and bounces along the bar top. His phone vibrates once. Twice. Three times.
Standoff.
Dean doesn't move. Neither does the fox.
Slowly, he slides his arm along, grasps his phone and snatches it back, staying toward the back behind the bar. The fox isn't moving, though. Dean is on shift alone, or else he'd have someone to ask if they see that.
Then he remembers he was sending messages. )
There's a FOX wait, what do you mean what happened didn't leave you waiting that long
haha you're terrible at making jokes, there isn't a fox in saltburnt. did it escape from the zoo?
[only she knows of faith's fox, but that's part of the play. the fox's tail swishes in the air, waiting for dean's attention to be drawn more to the phone than to it, then poof! it's gone.]
ah, i'm feeling generous today. i'll give two answers 1. i work at the club and i'm looking right at you, you big dumb dog
[she whistles, two high notes mimicking a catcall, but it's too close. right behind him, or in front of him? it sounds like the whistle came from every direction. no matter where dean looks, she's nowhere to be found.]
2. i am nove-caudas, a nine-tailed fox, and i can see and hear everything in the manor no matter where i am because i am the greatest, most powerful being in this place π

How does being a fox make you that powerful
And hard to believe the house would let you keep all that power
You'd find that beating heart in no time
no subject
[the word 'stupid' echoes around the club, though it seems only dean is able to hear it.]
If I wanted to find the heart I could, you know.
