<img style="max-width:25%;float:left;margin:0 18px;" src="http://i.imgur.com/MLwbzY4.png" style="avatar]Caiohme didn't know Providence. She knew of him, of course, but in name and nothing more. The progeny of Chance Vereaux were never given a good reputation, but gossip alone was never enough to truly know what a person was all about. The Watcher was by no means, prey, but that didn't stop Providence from behaving like a predator. She could not determine his intentions; could not could she determine whether this façade of his was all an act.
She could only hope that he was more rational than his mother, and not as fragile as his sister. Briefly, she found herself wondering where his Watcher was, or if he even had one. Not that there was a single force that could keep a Fae in check if they didn't want to be monitored. She would have felt a bit better knowing that he wasn't being left completely to his own devices.
She frowned at him. She could see that he had plans without him having to tell her. Could see the malevolence in them without having to ask. She would still ask, however. The Arden found no comfort in being silently curious. "What aspects of your mother's legacy are you interested in carrying on?" If one could consider Chance fucking and eating her way across the world a legacy, it was news to Caiohme. Nothing else immediately came to mind when she tried to think about what exactly Chance brought to the table for the Vereaux.
He wanted to talk about her, and she didn't. Not her place to offer information freely, only to compile it. She uncrossed and crossed her legs again in the opposite configuration. She leaned back on the chair, and laced her fingers together in her lap. She looked like a lawyer now, one who was listening in to the story of a potential client with emotionless features.
"I do not enjoy anything about humans," she begins, unclasping her hands momentarily to wave down a server. They would not approach the table because she always requested the same thing. "Would you like to order anything?" She would ask Providence, because she was very good a pretending to be polite. She'd continue talking while he thought about it.
"I do not care what they think of me. What they want of me, but living in the Fleshlands is expensive," she complains, with a wrinkle of her nose. "It doesn't matter who or what you are. We're outnumbered by humans, here, and their desire for material wealth is unavoidable. Ki has this," she gestures around the interior of the tea house with a brief wave of both hands. "And I tell lies to trick humans for money, because they are so unbelievably stupid." Superbly over-simplified, but it got her point across.
She brushed back her bangs, as a serving girl brought a steaming pot of tea and set it before her without a word. Pouring herself a cup - coconut oolong tea with a bit of milk and sugar- she took a sip before continuing. "If I could convince Ki to leave this all behind and return to Arcadia I would. However, it is not my place. Therefore, here we are."

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
