Edward was glad to wake up to a period of respite. While he had been conscious during breakfast, he'd requested to remain in his room for extra "sleep", which had consisted waiting until the room was vacated to ingest the vial of Venom's blood. The vampire had lost his chance last night, but that might have been for the better; this way he wasn't

He was sort of hoping that being believed was gonna be a trend today, cause right up until the moment where he got pissed off, he didn't actually want to go to town on someone. Well, unless he just didn't like them anyway.
He wasn't too happy about the food at luch, though. Sure, it smelled good, but it looked suspiciously similar to that stuff they'd had at lunch the day they'd made him think he was a human. And bit his tongue. Which, you know, wouldn't have really been a problem if his teeth weren't all sharpened to points.
Ah well. He'd been thinking he was a human then, they didn't normally have sharp teeth, so now that he was back to knowing he was a Digimon he wouldn't do that again. ...Right?
Whether he would or not, he was already sitting down to show his cheeseburger who was boss.

Or did she? Certainly, there were still things to do. People to speak to, and new information to uncover. While Erika had done her best to map out the area as soon as possible, she was distracted by Marc's mission and neglected that; depending on how things went in the basement tonight, she might have to reprioritize mapping out the Institute's layout. Perhaps she should focus on that.
It would be easier to think if she wasn't served such terrible food. The all-American lunch was definitely not up to Erika's tastes as she collected her food and chose a seat at random, in front of a man who looked like he had just sat down to get started on his own lunch. Good, so she wasn't interrupting anything.
At least, if this place was in Japan, she would be able to eat the greasy death contraption with chopsticks and not have to dirty her hands. That was why Erika grabbed a plastic knife and fork, and with her tools, she began to cut into her burger like one might cut into a steak, bun and all.
As if she would dirty her hands with all of this disgusting grease. She had things to hold, after all.
"It's not one of my favorite meals, but I suppose there's no point in skipping lunch, is there?" Erika looked up at the man with a pleasant smile, seemingly unconcerned with her strange behavior.

"Oh, right." Introductions. That thing. "'m Beelzemon. Who're you?" Not the most graceful attempt at introductions the world had ever seen, but he tried anyway.

"I'm sure Landel-san has an interest in keeping us alive, which is why he feeds us. Wouldn't you think so?" Erika offered her answer to Beelzemon's question, which of course was the correct one. Although they were pieces, they still had to eat. Landel-san must have enjoyed a realistic board, but it was a shame that his cafeteria chefs were nothing like Gohda. Then again, that man wouldn't be caught dead in an institutional cafeteria, wouldn't he...?
"Furudo Erika. I am a detective." Since Erika did possess manners, she did not let Beelzemon's introduction go unnoticed. There was something potentially interesting about what he said, actually, which was why she was more than happy to carry on the conversation.
"Have you actually seen the man upstairs, now that you mention it?" She was going to see him tonight, but there was no reason not to collect information before then. Knowledge and logic were the detective's tools, after all.
Reply
"Nah. Never seen the guy." He was right not to show his face here, cause Beelzemon and about umpteen million other people here would jump him the second they figured out who it was. "Don't think anyone I know has either, and I got a friend who's been here for a while."

"Isn't that interesting? No one has seen him, yet you all accept that he exists," Erika mused, though she wasn't exactly doubting the existence of Landel either. Not entirely; it was clear there was someone pulling the levers behind the curtain, but much like Oz, Erika knew a fraud was lurking behind that. The entity that was Martin Landel; the point of the board was to find out that illusion and crush it. She would expose this man for what he was, and if Momo was correct, she would be able to do that tonight.
Until then, she was left with clues to assemble. Why wait until tonight to find out the answer? That wasn't her style, when she could begin cracking that answer right now.

"And you're a detective, huh?" He'd heard it the first time, he'd just sort of forgotten to comment on it, since he was already focused on something else. "You'd prolly get along with a friend of mine." What with the being reserved and mysterious and everything.
