    The quick change in Mhairi's face-voice-being was surprising, more so than her stars and fires fading away. There was a sharpness it seemed to the Autumn Changeling, even if Angel seemed not to feel the prick. Or Twist understand the nature of the steel that made it. A sharpness that only made her more interesting, not less

    A mental reminder to not be rude, had Twist blinking and pulled away from voyeuristically watching Mhairi react to Guru's state. Doing so, she caught the nod offered to her from Lenora and the look granted Asa. A smile and a nod back was offered to the departing Kindred. And even though the exchange was barely enough to be called such, had Asa even noticed?, she felt something lean, something maybe start. Not for tonight as the elevator doors closed behind the new Invictus, but maybe they should talk soon.

    Shouting caught her attention. Lenora, Mhairi, and Guru momentarily stepped back in attention. Eyes widening, she caught ... well, nothing of what had happened. But suddenly the woman who had dropped Guru into their laps was dragging a body? away. Seeing the wink Avis offered, "I do not believe she will ..." she said softly, her voice a strange mixture of amusement and surprise. At Campanella's approach and clear purpose, Twist stepped aside, giving him room to gather up Guru.

    Meeting Asa's look, her lips curled up in the Daeva smile he would know well before turning likewise to follow his gaze, "Oh yes - let us do that."

    I am assuming that per Campanella's post, Guru is successfully exited from the scene. But if I am in error feel free to strike the post for marble jumping.

    Asa's observations had been correct about the new statue until Campanella came around. When he prodded, Guru flinched involuntarily but as he was guided he followed, eagerly he followed. Anything to get away from the monster, to put as much space between himself and that monster. His gait matching Campanella's as his muscles seemed to find new life.

    He didn’t think he’d ever forget that horror wearing the mask of a man again. He’d found real monsters and found himself entirely unprepared.

    You're fine to jump, just posting the exit.

    "So quick to denounce Fear, and yet...." Mhairi's brow arches. She should have gotten a feast, and not a few stolen motes. She shouldn't be craving the rolling Fear sweeping the crowd as the mentor, takes another student(?) to task....Mhairi bites her lip at the spectacle. Or the aftermath of what was a spectacle. The body being dragged away, the blood staining the floor, bits of flesh and sinew being left behind... "What are they?" she asks, if this was discipline....surely they were a resilient, and hardy.

    Weren't there Rules about things like this? And yet, none of the Nexus' wards or what other magic bound this place hadn't been invoked. It couldn't be as bad as it looked.

    Though there is a part of her that woke with a certainty. A Fear, buried deep. Asa had asked for Guru's consent, plain words. Whatever the bloody, boyish fool did, or said, might have been it's own consent for the Wards.

    Mhairi knew things that worked like this. She didn't want to know them again.

    Her thoughts, are disrupted as Bart comes to collect Guru. She offers the man, a small wave of her fingers. Whatever he was, he was one of them, these hardy, harsh people.

    Mhairi can't help but laugh at that, dragging her mind more firmly away from her thoughts. Burying her Fear, it wasn't a New Fear, but a lingering one. One she would never be parted from. It was easy to pretend it wasn't there. "I'm going to assume my own invitation." she says, now. Her mirror pale eyes, alight with something close to want, and mischief.

    The definition of non-binary beauty. Angel has long blond hair and a lithe body. Perfect sculpted face and creamy smooth skin. Not a blemish or untended pore. 6 feet tall with perfect legs, and hands that have never seen hard labor. Their mouth is delicate, when resting, poised somewhere between a smile and a frown on the verge of pursing.

    Much like Venus, Angel is a vision of perfect beauty but sculpted out of ice instead of stone. A single frozen tear on their right cheek. A chilling statue, seeming un-alive when not moving.

    The stark, cold air that surrounds their form is easy to miss, until they breath. The thick clouds of crystallized condensation forming with each breathe belie her nature.

    The older gentleman denied Angel their feast. A shame, older gentleman are often so delicious, full of regret. The handsome monster... perhaps he's an older gentleman as well, how many regrets can someone gather unto themselves through multiple lifetimes?

    The Angel sneers, an odd expression on the soft, frozen face. "There can be wonderful sorrow in disappointment. Are you ever disappointed when you seek more carnal endeavors, or do your powers preserve you from the failings of the man."

    Asa glanced at Lenora's exit, but it was a cursory glance given more for her attention to Twist than look at him. The raised voices were both distracting and added a new tension to the air. Such open hostility reminded him of Freddrick's Courts when it had just been a waiting game to see who the victim would be.

    When the child screamed and began running, Asa's smile straightened back out into calm indifference -- but his eyes were alert and followed the ensuing splash of blood and collapse. He couldn't help but rifle through his catalog of memories for something similar. Kindred killed in different ways. Immediate and physical, or indirect. To see a fusion of both was interesting, to say the least. It was over quickly enough and Asa gave Avis a curious nod before turning his attention back to the developing cattiness.

    "Oh, by all means,"
    he said quietly as the flustered older man came to collect Venus di Milo. Asa held up his hands and took a step back, but couldn't quite help the smile that cracked out at Campanella . "Clearly, he does not need our... assistance."

    Asa suspected an answer to the shrike's question -- but he wasn't positive. He was also happy to move on rather than dwell upon it when Angel sneered out her question. His lips parted and he drew in a breath; ready to riposte with a quip, but then his brows furrowed slightly and he shook his head.

    "You were barely tolerable --and entirely uninteresting-- impersonating a mannequin dispensing fortune cookie platitudes,"
    he said coolly. "But warning these two women of their imminent disappointment with my failings before I can take advantage of them? Now I do take exception to that."

    No, of course Angel hadn't indicted him directly, but Asa was more concerned with a parting note rather than a continuation. He offered the Daeva and the shrike each an arm.

    "I don't know what 'carnal endeavors' are, but how about we go bang?"



    Three days left from this posting -- Twist or Mhairi Ankaa , feel free to write Asa out with either of you!

    To Mhairi's first question, Twist merely shook her head slightly, not having an answer for her.

    Angel's disdain was evident, in pose and tone and it was with something akin to surprise that Twist looked that way. Slipping her own arm through Asa's when offered, settling with an easy familiarity, she looked back to Angel one last time. Her eyes dark with promise of the carnal endeavors spoken of, her lips curled into a indolent and sensous smile, her words spoken with the lazy confidence of one who could back up their words.

    "Dissapointment? If I am involved? Never."

    At Asa's question, Twist only let out delighted laugh. The sound of it trailing them in vibrant counterpoint to the blood that had trailed behind the Mage contingency.

    Twist is good for an exit as well

    Mhairi cannot help the slow blink, it staves off her need to roll her eyes.

    She hadn't met anyone like Angel before, and she was glad of it. She didn't think it was possible to get Asa to crack that polite distance. Not enough Morgan had gotten more then a dismissive goodbye, and a quick exit. Though Morgan, as much as Mhairi cared for the Raccoon, the Wisp knew that her former Paladin was...trying at the best of times, hadn't insulted Asa the same way Angel had.

    The poor fool, had the Icebound Duchess thought that would work? Negging the vampire, who with a look, quelled Guru's vibrancy, and had him nearlypiddling on the floor.

    Mhairi slips her arm through Asa's offered on, laughing as Myah offers her quip.

    This little shrike had a feeling that the rest of her evening would even bring a blush to the Emerald.

    Still as a statue the treasured watches the three individual monsters make their exit, their combined presence would be suffocating to a lesser being.

    Angel does not shrink away from the returned fire, they freeze, waiting. Once the path is clear Angel ripples once again, pulling the mask back around their form before carefully stepping their way towards the elevator.

    Bloodshed and monsters where enough for one evening out.
