Aderyn seemed at ease with the silence, simply giving the woman looking at her a small smile. Now she loved to fill silence. Loved music and chatter and laughing. However, this was a different matter. When being questioned, she knew to only give the broad strokes of truth. If details were needed, the right questions must be found. A game of sorts, one very fae.<br/><br/>Of course the woman broke the silence first and Aderyn gave a little wiggle and settled back in her chair. These were questions. "How was I able to fight vampires? How do you fight anything? You said you saw the knives, no?" Again that glimmer of a smile on her lips. Clearly she enjoyed not exactly answering questions. "When Neo sent an invitation to myself and my brother, the vampires overheard. They answered the call and then attacked; gauche, impolite corpses on strings that they are." It was quite clear from both words and tone that she felt vampires were an utter waste of space. If you couldn't eat it, what use was it?<br/><br/>The fireplace was all Neo, so she didn't feel like she was responsible to answer that question unless pressed. In any case they seemed more like reflexive curiosity, not anything the human actually required knowledge on. Beth engaged the hotel manager, and Aderyn returned to watching quietly.<br/><br/>Islwyn had pulled out a knife and seemed to be engaged in cleaning his perfectly clean fingernails with it. He didn't contribute and looked rather bored. When Rattus looked to him, he didn't glance up. They already knew there were lots of things in the city, and since there were none in the room that needed stabbing he was simply waiting for them to get it over with so he could obtain his new toy.<br/><br/>While the woman admitted to fear she was also rather controlled, and so not as delicious to be around as some others. Still Aderyn absently rubbed the toe of her boot against the desk, as if she was trying to edge a little closer, or rather shift the absorptive nature closer to the human to take a bit more.<br/><br/>Aderyn acknowledged the look and nodded as if to confirm Rattus' theory. "I did say the alchemist called us." One hand moved in a graceful gesture, "If you need a motive, you could ascribe his impatience and lack of tracking skills. I<span style="font-style: italic">had</span>left him and Andromeda a breath and they made no use of it at all." Perhaps the later reason was too large an assumption, there was no evidence Neo could not track if he chose to do so, though she was unsure if that could be done using alchemy. She tapped her lips with one finger and amended, "Well certainly his bravado." A glance at Rattus, "Your alchemist is rather... untamed."<br/><br/>Islwyn finally spoke, but it was only to say, "I think he's entertaining."<br/><br/>Aderyn nodded in agreement, "Extremely." That was about half the reason they were involved. It was something to do and involved learning about new people and going places and it seemed like getting in a great deal of trouble. In a word; entertaining.
