Dahlia was less than pleased as she walked around the bean to find that no one even remotely familiar had appeared. She continued around the park slowly, her sandals scuffing along the sidewalk. Her sisters had done this before, shedding their leather in favor of blending in... All the easier to have people trust them without question.

Her gaze fell upon the girl casually reading not too far away. So innocent... so unassuming. Her lips quirked in a small smile before she tore her glance away. Had she been any younger, or her parents around, she'd have made an excellent Mord-Sith... It was a shame such a perfect little project would have to be wasted in favor of this place.

Dahlia continued to walk around a little, casually scrolling through the strange object that she'd been given on her arrival. She didn't care for the strange contraption, but had given in and learned how to use it. For now... She approached the bench the girl was sitting at with a very slow pace. She tore her gaze up from the phone and offered the girl the most genuine smile she could muster.

"Do you mind if I join you, dear?" she inquired as politely as she could.

Dahlia sat down and smiled a little more, slow and almost predatory if she hadn't paid careful attention to how it came off. "Dahlia. It's lovely to meet you, Clare..."

Her voice was almost too sugary, as she found this whole 'being nice' act much more difficult than she thought originally.

"Yours is as well," Dahlia countered the compliment with ease. "It reminds me of my dear friend's name... Cara. Perhaps that's only because I find myself homesick for someone familiar..."

She glanced away from the girl and across the park, pressing her lips together. She wasn't really lying, she missed Cara the most of her Sisters and the similar sounds of the girl's name did remind her of her lover... Her friend.

She tucked one ankle behind the other, scrolling through the device a little more. "Do you have any friends here, Clare dear?"

Dahlia smoothed out her dress a little, glancing at her purse for a moment. She was sure that using her usual methods... Well... it was too soon. She was also gauging what this girl had to offer other than an afternoon of amusement. It was more than obvious that she knew nothing of importance...

"I'm glad... It would be horrible to be in this place alone, without kind, familiar faces," she replied slowly. "Especially with someone as innocent as you."

Inspecting her nails Dahlia caught on to the girl's displeasure at her word choice. If she were any normal person, this would have triggered her into caring. But she simply did not care and it was becoming increasingly difficult to pretend she did.

She turned her gaze on the girl, smiling. "And have you come across anyone that perhaps I should keep my distance from? I would hate to have a run in with someone I shouldn't..."

Dahlia took careful note as the girl touched her necklace. The symbol meant nothing to Dahlia, whose knowledge of worlds like this was few and far between. Perhaps it was simply a nervous tendency.

Right. Thomas. The handsome one with the quick tongue. She shrugged her shoulders as the hand farthest from the girl slid inconspicuously into her bag. Her fingers wrapped around her Agiel, pulling it slowly from the purse. "With a mixed population like this, there are certainly more people you should stay away from."

It was an innocent enough warning.... Until she swiftly pressed the end of the rod into the girl's shoulder with a twist. "Like me."

Now, Link certainly wasn't the type to ignore a scream like that. Hero-types, you know how they get. Whatever Link had been doing before the girl's scream cut through the air was dropped, and he ran in the direction of it to find a woman torturing a younger girl

"Hey!" Link called, whipping out his sword and pointing it at the woman, "Whatever it is you're doing to her, stop!"

Of course, at four foot nothing, and with his very childish sounding voice, Link was hardly the most intimidating of heroes, even with his sword pointing at the woman's back.
