Hm? [well, this is interesting.]

It's give for take. I don't demand anything outrageous.

[embattles]

What would you consider outrageous? It's not good if our definitions differ.

[exanimatus]

How about something that's beyond what's given?

[embattles]

How very unspecific of you. How about I reserve the right to refuse any request I deem outrageous, and you can pick a new thing to take?

[Just to you know, avoid having to kill someone or something on his say so]

[exanimatus]

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you're a fair sort. [in other words, yes.]

[embattles]

Very generous. Glad to hear it.

I think...This is going to work out well.

Yeah? It pays to have a place that's out of the way.

I STILL LU BB

... [She pauses, either he's been paying attention to her, or he's just lucky] Sometimes people could use that. Some time away.

[exanimatus]

[well srsly, it's not like she'd need him for protection, and it sure as hell isn't his charming personality.]

That's what it's for, so long as it's mine. As long as you can keep to that, you're welcome.

[Hey man, you never know. Paradisa is weird like that. You have to account for losses and things. And he's totally charming, if not...creepy as well]

I don't think we're going to have any problems in that area. But I can't guarantee that if you let me stay, you won't get some of the vampiric nature sniffing about.

[Like...Literally, he's like a bloodhound] That gets to weight in on your chosen return favour, if giving someone a run around isn't that much of a problem for you.

[exanimatus]

Not much of a problem at all. Maybe he'll be good company.

[a chuckle. he does enjoy meeting other vampires.]
