A g h a s t l y ghoul, rather; Gaunt, grim, and positively garish! His serpentine match, who’s gaudy countenance no outward token bore, slid that tortuous form into the beast’s abode. Sparing formality, not so much as a nod before exhaling the exordium of his agonies! Scarcely had the sanguine sinner stopped speaking, it seemed that each solitary scale stored some stock of spleen for this or that, and the Leviathan was just giddy to relinquish it, spare himself the baggage as it were.
❝ Come now, you’re always sopping in blood and viscera, by this point your apologies are as mute as that wretch you mangled! ❞ It appeared that Pentious did indeed heed him! The tip of his tail flipped to and fro’ offering no illusions for the irritation he felt! Moreso an allusion. In this vein, he took purchase of a seat parallel to the other, a groan rolling out of his now slouched form. While sitting, to an ice-cold eye, he appeared no taller than any other demon, perhaps a faint few inches more than his company given the hat, but a tablecloth might just belie sheer doom in waiting coils for some unwitting soul!
Sir made a grand show of rebuking his ashen counterpart’s sadistic musings, favoring his claws with the attention he should have given to the only other sentient sod seated serenely. But where was the sport in that? ❝ Quite. ❞ So blandly offered, and delayed to boot, before he transitioned straight into his own design. ❝ Have you got the part I asked for? I can’t mend the damage that cyclopian cunt did to my ship without it. ❞ There were MANY things Pentious was known for, an inclination toward greed being at the forefront of that list , just beside narcissism. It should have come as no surprise at all when he gauchely doled out his demands, claw grubbily grabbing the air in a gesture of ‘give me’.
❝ Do tell me you have it, chum. ❞ In a snake’s fashion, his demeanor softened to an intoxicatingly languid state, that former brash, bedside manner a dead leaf echo of the monster who now faced Alastor. How charming. His behavioral proclivities might be almost endearing to those who far surpassed him in power and reign, as one might look down in amusement on a lap dog who nipped and snarled- At his core, though he thought himself their equal, that’s all Pentious truly was. In the grand scheme, a Rook at best.
the heretic chortles, a tittering laugh voided of any taken offense for his rejected apology, if it even could be labelled as so. “ yes, yes, but we can’t forget etiquette, you bird, it’s what separates The Mindless from us bunch ! “ an inclusion of the serpent, a compliment acting as the butter that would smooth over the transaction in his favor. a charmed crowd was kinder to its host than one out for his blood. there was no point in antagonizing a man whose partiality would serve him well.
vermillions observe him shuffle into place, not once straying from the snake’s weary countenance, though they narrow when there’s no reply to his commentary ( even if it was made out of a want to get the first word, out of filling the air with trivial pleasantries ). never been a fan of being ignored. it made his skin itch.
there’s a hum of acknowledgement swirling in his throat at the scourge’s predicament, but, being the one intent on setting the pace, his upper torso tilts ever so slightly to the side, attention misplaced to a set instead of his business partner. the laconic response didn’t soothe any. “ tea ? “ he inquires, voice dotted with lackadaisical virtue as he nudges the teapot into their vicinity, honed anguis clanking against the ceramic.
“ you know i do, i always do, “ the host croons, fixing his position into a posture more poised, canting a smidgen forward as he entwines fingers with one another right under his chin, propped. “ but, see, charmer, they’re becoming a tad bit more arduous to acquire. “ have you ever considered upgrading your vessel ? a query that doesn’t flutter. he lacks enough knowledge in the field for him not to stumble into some logical folly. “ so ! say, what can you offer ? hmm, i’m… peckish for an immaterial currency. “ grin widens, curiosity roused by the shift. he’s always prided himself in his immunity to social incantations meant to spirit tenderness, but he could always appreciate the placidity.
