I. [Location: Central Mansion]

[vampsolidarity]

It had been a long night. Jail breaks followed by executions took a lot out of a person, especially when the execution involved two people he'd known for over a century. He and Mick had parted company not long after the Cleaner had disposed of the ashes, leaving him to return to his office, alone, and assimilate the information. Drink in hand,

I hear tell we should meet. ^_^

"If you do manage to find someone to kill, let me know."

Eric strolled down the last few steps into the lobby, watching the highly irritated new arrival. The one who he'd realized about halfway down definitely didn't smell human. A little bit of a comfort, considering he was surrounded by them.

"They're not interested in laws here. I have kidnapping and harassment on my list, currently." He'd be interested in seeing how another vampire suffered through dealing with these people. Maybe even up against the 'vampire duster'. Whatever.

With a nod to the new face, Eric folded his hands behind him. "Eric Northman. This is El Dorado. It's a city in the sky, you have been brought here by gods, yes this is quite ridiculous, and I had nothing to do with it." Might as well save him from speaking to the Receptionist as much as possible.

"City in the sky," Josef repeated, sounding more than a little doubtful but not enough to call the man in front of him out on his crazy. Josef was not in the mood for a fight right now, not after everything, and while he might not personally recognize this Eric - odd, really, considering his age and connections - his senses were definitely telling him that he was no mere mortal. "And gods," He said, pausing and taking a sniff of his drink. No, it didn't smell like he'd been slipped any hallucinogens.

"So I'm guessing there's no chance that I could slip away undetected."

"As far as I can currently tell, there is no such way. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here." You didn't have to be a telepathic waitress to catch that the other vampire didn't quite believe him, but Eric didn't care too much.

All he had to do was look outside and see for himself, and if he was capable, attempt a little escape flight of his own. Nothing too difficult.

"I was pulled away from important business in Louisiana. These people, gods or otherwise, are extremely powerful. And for that to concern me, at my age, is saying something."

"Just what kind of business are you running if you're threatening murder and flattering kidnappers?" Mary asked, wasting no time in walking up to the man who had been talking to himself. He was asking the kinds of questions that everyone asked when they arrived in the city, so she assumed that he hadn't spoken to the receptionist yet. Still, most people didn't have a reaction like his, and that had caught her interest.

"None of us chose to come here. If you think calling them out is going to make our kidnappers appear, then good luck, because no one else has seen them." Maybe that wasn't the nicest way to break it to him, but Mary was more concerned with getting this over with than playing nice. "You're in El Dorado. It's a city in the sky."
