[ a face appears, her smile glinting with an edge of danger as she speaks ]

That's not

very

nice.

[ she leans in close, eyes flashing a brilliant blue before fading darker. ]

If you're not here soon, well... I guess I'll just have a little bit of fun. [ she flicked her wrist then, the phone fizzling out with a plop as it landed in the fountain. Diva's a bit pissed off after all. Her Riku's gotten away again and just before she found him. And if her chevalier (any of them) don't come find her soon, well... who knows who might get hurt. Do tread with care. ]

((ooc: Diva's not happy at the moment, so if you want to action it up, be prepared for potential unpleasantness depending on how the threads go. I won't go too extreme, no worries! She's more interested in general destruction then a feast right now. ))

[ she tilts her head and looks at him ]

Oh? And is it on the menu to night? [ she's still on edge, still roiled up. It could really go either way. ]

action;

[indecent_butterfly]

[Not the first nor will it be the last time someone looks at nem like that.]

Depends on the flavor of fun you wish.

Action

[byherscore]

[ and she's not bothering with the curtain as she undoes the pin at her throat, letting the dress fall to her feet before she slides the new one on.

What was modesty to Diva? It's not as though she's ever cared. ]

And that boy? [ don't think you're getting off light either. If he comes, they'll have to treat him gently. After all, sister dear isn't here and what's the fun in ending it too soon? ]

action;

[byherscore]

[ she frowns ] It wasn't supposed to be you. [ indeed not, her boy, her precious little boy has run off and disappeared.

how vexing. ]

action;

[indecent_butterfly]

[Aww how sad.

Ne stands and bows solemnly.]

One does beg forgiveness for not being quite so tasty.

[Or who knows, Karl's never been stupid brave enough to try a devil's blood after discovering the effects of Setsuna's.]

[byherscore]

[ Ah... sweet Karl, ever chained to her side, so desperate, so devoted. No matter how irritating, how annoying, she had to smile a little as she walked, taking in the scents of this city like any other.

It wasn't home, but Diva never had a home.

It simply was, and she was itching to stretch her wings before being trapped yet again. It wasn't often she had the freedom of a hunting ground. Flicking her wrist, she gestured Karl closer. ]

action;

[byherscore]

[ she giggled then ] Were you offering? [ blood is never so sweet when freely given. She had chevaliers for that. No... the sweetness was in their screams, in the light fading from their eyes. She could always feel their heart break beneath her fangs.

Better to just rip the man apart. ]

action;

[indecent_butterfly]

Only if One's Lord wished it. [And ne has no plans on giving him any ideas about it. Not that Diva would get any of that from nem in either case. A devil who can vaporize isn't very easy to catch.]

From what this One has heard, you wouldn't want that either.

Action

[manyadenouement]

[Of course he doesn't mind watching her strip down since she's such a beautiful person to behold. He sighs happily and waits on her.]

I can take the boy under my care to make sure he's alright before bringing him to you. Will that make you happy?

1/2

[mortemscintilla]

[ True to 'Li's' persona, he feigns a flail-&-fluster and backtracks. ]

[mortemscintilla]

Ah! Well -- [ A gawky smile. Almost apologetic. ] I was on my way to work. And it's not really up to me to keep tabs on anyone. [ Not his business. Trouble is as trouble does. And if she is, he'll know. The flashy types seem to feed on the Network's attention. ]

[worldofourown]

[ She's barely gestured before he's at her side. Eager and solicitous, but afraid to speak. Her words still crackle through his head like red-hot sparklers. Overlaid by his own misery -- she's been cheated of her children, he's failed her as a Chevalier -- even as he's unsure how to remedy this. ]

[ He'll find a way. He must. ]

[ Until then, he's ready to serve her in every capacity. ]

[byherscore]

[ it's a good thing she doesn't much care for the network then. She much prefers to do things in person. ]

Boring. [ but that is the right answer. If he had said he'd stay, he'd be pressed up against the wall right now. Silly humans and their instinct for survival. Perhaps there's hope for you yet. ]

Don't let me keep you then, boy. [ and she turns and starts to walk away. If her chevaliers aren't going to be here now, well... she'll just have to go and find them. ]

[byherscore]

I'm hungry. [ her eyes shine blue in the dark shadow of a wall. ] Where do you hunt? [ darkness was almost always preferred by her chevaliers, but Diva so preferred the light. ]

Action

[byherscore]

[ her eyes light up ] He's here? Where? [ who cares for clothing when Riku's whereabouts are at stake. She'll simply drift over and drape across his chair, finger tips caressing Nathan's face in joy. ]

action;

[byherscore]

Hmm... and why wouldn't I? [ Diva takes what Diva wants. ]

action;

[indecent_butterfly]

One is not so certain how appetizing a devil's blood. [Good luck with that.]

[mortemscintilla]

[ He watches her go. Turns, and continues on his way. Another troublemaker. How troublesome? Remains to be seen. ]

[ He'll be keeping watch. ]

[worldofourown]

[ Hunting? He dares a little smile. Diva will always be Diva. ]

The Underground. The City Limits. Even Xanadu or the City Center. [ Humans everywhere. Easy to snatch away and devour, in blinks. He gauges their eyes out so they don't recognize him, upon returning to life the next day. ]The Underground has monsters too. But the tastiest humans are in Xanadu. [ Babies. Pretty girls. Sprightly boys. Frolicking in a live buffet. ]

action

[forhishonor]

Most people have one.

[ at least, most people of any sort of importance have one. ]

Action

[manyadenouement]

Not yet. The Deities have failed to be that kind to you. [Pity too. He wants Riku here to make her happy.]

action

[byherscore]

[ she creeps up on Elliot yet again, smiling, beguiling. ] I'm not most people. [ she's not even human at all. ]

action;

[byherscore]

Are you a devil then?

[ she jumps to her feet, sniffing the air as she creeps a little bit closer ] But you smell just like them. [ but she's tempted now, truly tempted. She's never had a devil for a meal before. the novelty almost makes up for the looks. ]

[byherscore]

Monsters? [ her eyes flicker for just a second as she paused to listen. Was Amshel nearby and she somehow missed him?

Poor Amshel.

Dear Amshel.

She expected more from you then this. After a second, several counted heartbeats, both hers and his, she turns into Karl, half smiling yet again. ] Just take me there then. Something nice, something tasty. Something young.

[ and then she'll give Karl the dregs. ]

Action

[byherscore]

[ the light leaves her eyes as she turns back to the dress still in hand, pulling it on slowly as she thinks. ]

I see.

[ these deities. Perhaps she should have a word with them. They have clearly gotten out of hand. ]
