~~A manifestation of boiling, tempest-like shadow coils about behind the striking figures of both Mistresses. With each passing moment it becomes more life-like - more human - in its posturing, head inclined, hands at his hips. His eyes tainted paper mache by a meaningless addiction smolder, edged with wires of hurt. Tendrils of charcoal bleed down his pale face and neck, failing down to his chiseled abdomen.
His being screams atrocity, thin and too-long fingers fluttering at leather clad hips. The drug becons. Deployed with in his grasp are both of his cruel blades, leather-wrapepd hilts extending past his fore arms as he grips near the short, fiercely curved and serated blades.~~
<qw> Do you desire the husk opposite dismantled, Mistress?

::as the figure of Kalas emerges from the shadows, the corners of her lips tug upward, in a malevolent grin, directed at no one, but speaking of the roiling dark pleasures within as, at last, she hears something worthy of more than a cursory response::
<sw> No, Kalas... we'll save him for later... maybe a midnight snack...
I have grown weary... ::the cadence of her words as ponderously slow and drawn out as the pace of her turn, as she swivels to face the assemblage:: ... weary of the uninvited who would enter this estate without a word of notice.. without one iota of respect for the inhabitants of this house... only to request... no, *demand*... ::the rosy flush of anger rising to her cheeks with each successive syllable:: ... that they be allowed entry into our most private sanctums... you may not be the only transgressor, Mister Cameron, but you are the one who has drawn the lucky lottery number, so to speak... you win the jackpot... you get to hear the speech...
::she inhales deeply, the swell of her chest rising, even as the color ebbs away, leaving her a sculpture of alabaster and ice once more::
You will find, Mister Cameron... ::slipping into her most saccharine smile:: ... that, as in most walks of life, rudeness will be met with rudeness... threat with threat... and violence with corresponding violence...
I've yet to see one iota of respect from you... and until I do... ::her voice suddenly taking on a breezy, cavalier timbre:: ... the answer remains...
No.
::and with a meaningful glance, a pair of startling twin emeralds slide towards Kalas, and she holds his need at bay, for the moment, with the commands etched in her eyes::

Nails.
~~His head swivels, tendons straining visibly beneath a canvas of pale flesh. Soft, razorblade breaths are taken and given, taken and given-so very like Revenge. His hollow eyes are edged with pain. Edged with decay. His doll face-like the rest of his figure-is seemingly carved of shadow and stone. He is pinnioned to the earth, nine inch nails molding and piercing his flesh... if only they could see. His weapons are held fast, dangling at his leather-clad hips.~~
<w> Mistress, this husk would feast us on covert insults. He thinks he knows Pain.
::His voice drops to a whisper dripping with malice, his stance teetering between the kill and his much-loved Mistress. It takes little more than a single ounce of thought to choose the latter, though he remains as he stands...obedient...::
<vqw> I know pain.

::lifts gloved fingertips to pinch the bridge of her nose, in a gesture of annoyance that this semblance of a discussion has continued *this* far::
::inhales deeply... counts to ten::
::then, flinging her hand out to the side with a sharp snap of her wrist, and with a tone as level and clear as tepid water in a Waterford tumbler:: I said no. I meant no.
And incidentally, Renfield, I *did* offer to help you... you turned my offer down...
::suddenly *really* drained by the thickness of mediocrity in the air, she simply turns to Kalas with a twitching half-smile and loops an arm through his, melding her luster with his shadows:: You're entirely right... my energies are better expended elsewhere...

Escort
His head inclines, tendrils of charcoal flailing...bleeding. His Mistress secure, his interests will no longer lay with this crowd, save the husk called Nothing, whom has pricked his interest. Hollow, paper mache tainted eyes stare correctly foreward in the direction of travel, lined with wires of white hot pain and screaming addiction.Thin lips painted a taint of souless black part in soft exhale, his Mistress's presence and touch soothing the ache.
His Mistress is well. All that matters.

:::The smooth arch of a dark brow over golden-green... a shrug, and the groggy one turns to walk away. Pausing, she glances back over her shoulder, her tone piercing::
You.. and you.. :::her stern glare turning from SteelHelix to Nothing Lost Souls:: Have both been invited to leave the premises. Do so.
