He stares at her boredly as she holds up her paws and grins. She does a spin and whips her tail around with a flick before opening her eyes and sees him looking away--

"So, what do you think?"
He glances over and raises an eyebrow. "About--?"
She groans, exasperated. "This is my true form. What do you think?"
"It's fine."
She sighs. "Right, I forgot. You're the Demon-Eater. You're much better than a little old fox like me."
He rolls his eyes at her dramatic antics. "I didn't say that."
She points at him. "You were thinking it. Well, if you're so great, let's see your true form, neh?"
He tenses before turning his back to her. "This is my true form," he lies.
She knows it and expresses it out loud. "Liar! Where's the claws? The fangs? The wings?! The goblin-ness?!"
He scoots so there's more distance between them. "You've seen it."
She closes in on that distance. "So, and you've seen lots of foxes, but why are you afraid of showing your form?"
Haruka rises. "I may lose myself."
With that, Youko watches as he takes off in flight.
