after dinner

[dragonhoard]

[...] Has anyone seen my watch?

[Blaise & Charlotte]

Hey. My name's Adrian. I'm going to be the head archivist here so I guess I'm your boss, sort of. [...] What did you guys do before this?

You can just tell me what to wear, if you want.

Adrian/Velvet

[halfnight]

Oh, in that case, I'll need to do a full inventory of your wardrobe.

Adrian/Velvet

[dragonhoard]

You can come over any time. I do have a roommate, though.

Adrian/Velvet

[halfnight]

Oooh. Iguana?

Adrian/Velvet

[dragonhoard]

Ghost.

Adrian/Velvet

[halfnight]

That's a pity. You can't pet a ghost. Are they more shade or poltergeist, would you say?

Adrian/Velvet

[dragonhoard]

Neither, actually. [...] His sister's a magical historian and she works for me in the archives. She called him a phantom, but he's very strange. You could mistake him for corporeal.

Sounds intriguing. Maybe he's lying to you about what he is. What's your place like?

Adrian/Velvet

[dragonhoard]

He's dead and he can walk through walls. I feel like it'd be rude to tell him he's not a ghost.

It's very gothic. You'll like it.

Just a little friendly interrogation. Maybe we'll chat when I visit.

I really would. My apartment has a chandelier. Non-electric. Who do you suppose is lighting them all those candles?
