Smugly near the Liar's Dice table because she won confidence and luck!

[sonvisage]

[Just kind of leaning back and watching the game, laughing at the people who lose. She's only here because it sounded interesting, and this sky shadow? She'd like to see it.]

[applelimber]

[Hey, she can handle a little rotten flesh. Especially when she's winning! Helen laughs loudly and slaps the arm of the guy sitting next to her. Hopefully it doesn't fall off.]

[And what does she win? All food tastes especially delicious for two days. Well damn. That's every day for Helen.]

[sonvisage]

Are you going to try your luck again?

[Your laugh is infectious, Helen. And so is the gent next to you, possibly. Silently bladefingering a chunk of rotted flesh off the floor and over the rail.]

[applelimber]

Nah. I think I'd better quit while I'm ahead.

[Helen's still grinning as she stands up from the table, giving the next person their turn.]

Or before someone loses a head.

[sonvisage]

That will come later, I think. But hopefully not for us.

[Sebastian is nearby, watching the game as well. He has a vague interest, but more for who plays and what they win or lose than wanting to play himself. Besides, he's here with his master, so the length of his leash is especially short. He won't be doing much of anything without orders.

He nods to Lust, however, with a small smirk.]

Miss Lust, I confess I did not expect to see you here.

[Although... hooker with a violent streak. Maybe he shouldn't be surprised.]

[sonvisage]

I'm not sure how to take that at all, [her own smirk is all in the formality of what follows, because come on they know each other better than this. Okay, not really..] Mister Michaelis.

I suppose I could say the same for you. Why did you come?

[demon_andbutler]

[He would correct most people and say that Sebastian is a perfectly acceptable way to address him, but the irony dripping in her words amuses him. So he'll leave it alone. And the knowing each other well bit is truer if one means in the biblical sense.]

You may take it however you would like. I am here, however, because my master decide to make the journey, and wished to have me accompany him.

[sonvisage]

[Smiiiiiirk.]

Your master.

[What, it's fucking amusing.]

Do you always do as you're told?

[demon_andbutler]

[Oh come on, he doesn't laugh at your profession. Which, by the way, is rather similar to his.]

Always? Well. That would depend on who did the telling.

[sonvisage]

[She is not a hooker, Sebastian! However would you even get that impre---

---oh.]

Are you both planning to join the fray?

[demon_andbutler]

I can't speak for what my master's intentions may be. But I shall follow his orders once he is able to assess the situation.

[He suspects Ciel isn't coming out of a sense of altruism, but he isn't known to back down from a fight, either.]

And what about you? Were you moved by the plea for help?

[sonvisage]

[A small shrug.]

The situation looks a lot like fire.

[Frown.]

More like curiosity.

[demon_andbutler]

All fire has a starting point. He thought it worth investigating.

[Sebastian nods. He approves of that sort of motivation; it's usually what drives him as well.]

And what is it that you hope to find, so that your curiosity may be satisfied?

[sonvisage]

It's the ending point I'm more concerned with. [A beat and then a correction:] Well, that's not entirely true - I wouldn't pass up a chance to say hello to the elves that started it.

If it's elves that are responsible. And I'm not sure - but it sounds fearsome.

Actually, I'm hoping to see another dragon.

[demon_andbutler]

[Okay, yes, that's all true. Although Sebastian himself is a bit wary of the elves, having fallen victim to their toxin.]

...Another?

[This is the first he's heard of dragons.]
