[ tea time!! even tho there was just a murder there ]
So... First question. Are you able to explain what the venom might look like on the victim? Or will that be a surprise for me as much as everyone else.
[sylvain appears in the courtyard, and aquarius is already there to settle with their tea. the question doesn't surprise them. they almost seem to appreciate the promptness of it.]
Depends. Are you actually interested in obtaining it for sure, or are you shopping around? I don't know if it'd do any good to give away secrets to someone who might not need to know them.
[ he'd like to get things sorted out as soon as possible, definitely ]
Yeah, which is why I'd like to know what to expect. If you can't answer that right away, I'd like to ask another—for these 'services', do we get to determine when they go into effect?
Guess what I'm asking, is, if I try to seal the deal now, I won't have to run back to you later for it.
[they lean back in their seat to examine him a little more closely.]
Got it. You'd have to do a task to earn it. Once the task is complete, you come back to me, I give you the power. Once the power is yours, you put it into effect whenever you want.
...leaves a purpleish lipstick mark. Should probably be aware of that.
Be kind of a useless power if evidence was still on you, wouldn't it? [shrug. but they ponder...]
You seem personable enough. So how about this one? Find two people that you think should talk to each other more often. Introduce them to each other, or get them together, and tell them why you think they'd be a good match.
Fairly quickly. Kisses are fleeting, you know? You might have like, I dunno, ten minutes or so in between when you do it and when it kicks in but you can distract somebody for that long can't you?
[he can because they aren't expecting it, which means there's a slightly startled noise while it happens. i hate to say this, but their hands are cold even through gloves.]
Yeah, yeah. I'll see you when you're done and we'll seal the deal.
