[Amusingly enough, Kuro leans into the touch much like he would if he was in feline form, pressing just a bit closer to Adrian. Most of the things he enjoyed as a cat he likewise enjoyed in his real form, and now was no different.]
If it helps, he might not recognize me if he sees me again. Tried to take me home when I was in cat form... seemed like he wanted to keep a pet. As long as I transform quickly, he might never realize if I run into him again.
[Yet another thing he didn't tell Adrian, like a dumbass, but it was embarrassing, ok. Though amusing in a weird way.]
...My mother was a human. A woman of science, a doctor. Her methods were not understood by the Church. Bear in mind, from the year 1475, medicine was not often very commonly known for the people of Wallachia.
So the Church named her a witch. They burned a human woman who only wanted to help people at the stake. It isn't just vampires and other creatures I worry for here. It's everyone.
[Kuro goes still against Adrian as he speaks, quiet and listening. Back in that day and age... of course, the first thing they'd think was sorcery if someone was using new and more effective treatments.
He curls his arms a little tighter around Adrian.]
....I'm sorry. She sounds like she was very kind. Brave, too.

You don't need to worry.

Priests will always make me concerned, especially ones so devout to God.
But I'm glad you're safe, and I will... try to leave it to Alucard.

Had a bad run in with men of the cloth?
[At least, he assumes as much. Vampire hunters in Kuro's world were mainly magicians, not priests.]

She asked me to give the people mercy. Despite everything in me wanting to avenge her, I stayed my hand.

[At least, everything Kuro's hearing seems to tell him as much. Adrian was terribly kind, often when he had no reason to be.]
