“Well, I assure you I do not give out my compliments so lightly as to render them weightless.” Belial smiled, shifting on their feet in a way that made the ruffles at the back of their knees sway. They were often fidgety when presented with the opportunity to be in possession of Rylan’s body. So much room to stretch and things to touch and the ability to be touched.
“Jean can not feed from me,” they begin, as if they'd not explained themselves once already. “Therefore he does not want to play with me. We have nothing to offer each other, so I find him rather boring in that regard.” If there was something else Elijah wanted to know he was asking the wrong questions. Red eyes formed a perfect semi-circle to settle upon their company. “If I was at all put out, it was on wasting the energy to meet him.”
They turned again, unable to help themselves. Eternally curiously. Brushing past Elijah, they adjusted their position to a spot that gave them a better view of the foyer and its new occupant. If they’d had any control over Rylan’s tail it would be swaying lazily like a nosy cat watching prey. Short lived, they turned on their heel to give Elijah their attention once more, brief though the consideration might be. They slid next to him until the length of their arms touched, and they leaned their head against his shoulder.
“You are finally asking the right questions,” they muse, noting the waning interest in his tone. “I want many things, but some mysteries are more fun when you have to figure them out for yourselves.”
Belial had been more forthcoming with information than they’d ever been in the past. Whether it was because Elijah amused them, or because they liked sewing seeds of discord was unclear. They were gone as quickly as they had come, however. The sulfurous distraction disappearing with them.
Rylan’s ears pressed against her head once, before swiveling to alertness. Green eyes blinked slowly, eyelids heavy as if waking from a deep sleep. Her tail shuddered around her knees before curling in a loose pinwheel. Who was she leaning against? She looked down, recognizing the dark slacks and shoes Elijah had been wearing that morning.
Oh. Hm.
She hummed, lifting her head slowly, as to not seem like she was recoiling away from him. Nervous hands smoothed nonexistent wrinkles over her hips. “I suppose you’ve met Belial?” she asked softly, a waver to her tone that expressed her fear of his reaction.
