Grabbing something from the bar and sending a glare the way of the bar keeper assured that Squalo got the bottle of alcohal for free. It was always that way...Yet tonight the company of his sword on Squalo's wrist was also gone. Maybe that meant he wasn't going to kill anyone and that he'd had a change of heart. Better to play it safe than sorry and risk losing a limb over a bottle of vodka.
Squalo let his eyes glance over the bar goers his eyes catching a man that looked different. A smirk with accompanying curiousity was piqued, as he slowly moved towards Seimei slamming his left hand down onto the table top. "voiiii...what the fuck are you doing in this place?"

His head didn't actually tilt upward, either, it was just those eyes that watched the silver-haired person in front of him. They looked black in this light, bottomless with nothing to separate the pupils from the irises.
One corner of his mouth twisted upward in what could have been a smile on someone else's face. On Seimei it looked like a snarl, though it was just a twitch of facial muscle that didn't really come close.
"If you had looked before you made it your business, you would have noticed that I'm eating, nothing more." His voice wasn't very loud, but it somehow made itself heard over the din in the place, and his eyes twitched. Narrowed a little. And then he went back to eating, as if he'd never been bothered.

Taking a drink of the vodka Squalo leaned over the table down really low. "Too bad..." If Seimei thought that he was going to get to finish his food he had another thing coming. He just raised an eyebrow and chuckled darkly. "I think I've found something interesting in you."

He also didn't wait for this stranger to finish speaking before whipping out one of his knives and holding the tip of the blade to a spot just under the man's chin. With the curved blade, he could have easily hooked it under the bone of his jaw and jerked him closer, but it wouldn't do to make such a mess here.
"Given your reaction to it, I'd say it bothers you, yes." Seimei didn't move. But he stared down at the man who was leaned over his table, his ruined food, and his eyes remained fixed on him.

It wasn't a suggestion it was an order. There was no way he was going to stay around this part of town to sleep. He'd have ended up killing half the population of shady people and prostitutes if he started to feel agitated.

The young man decided not to say anything else until he lifted an arm to get the attention of a taxi driver. When the cab pulled up, Seimei turned to grip the man's torso in both hands, almost shoving him into the back seat.
Seimei straightened himself, brushed himself off, and sat as far away from Squalo as possible, which meant he was turned somewhat away from him as the cab driver turned to ask them where they were going.

"Well hurry up." Squalo growled as he narrowed his eyes at Seimei.

The young man picked up part of Squalo's weight none-too-gently.
"You're extremely rude." Seimei said nothing else while he deliberately half-dragged the man up the stairs, and let go of him as soon as they reached the door.

Squalo was actually a very intellegent person for the most part. He just hated his space to be invaded, especially by someone as weird as the man he had brought back. He wasn't sure that he would be able to let him live.

In the dark, he looked like he belonged.

"So either get out or figure out what you're doing and get out anyways."

"Is there a hotel near here?" The more Seimei thought about killing the man, the more he realized that he wouldn't be able to use this place, anyway. Better to avoid snagging the attention of the mafia in this area by killing off someone that...seemed important, from the sound of the conversation.
However, if he kept it clean, it wouldn't be...that difficult. Seimei's hand, in his coat pocket, wrapped around his knife again as he asked the question.
