Tale as Old As Time [Finished]

[CalamityJade]

"Though, that is rather impressive. Most people tend to attract ghosts when they astral walk...though I don't get the same look from you." Morden peered at Siegfried over his glasses. "Though that might just be the nature of the area we're in."

[yamikuronue]

Siegfried blushes faintly. "Trust me, I have no intention of repeating that performance."

Lance scowls. "Someone want to tell me what the fuck is going on?"

Rosanna mutters something about "open your ears"

[accalia]

Julie: If you had been listening Lance you'd know they were talking about how Siegfried managed to find you earlier. it was rather dangerous what he did, but he seems none the worse for it, except for being overly tired because of it of course.

[CalamityJade]

Morden smiled a little. "It would appear that Siegfried is able to project himself astrally and had used that to locate you earlier...which is quite a feat from what I've heard. While I've never had much ability in that realm, it's said to be rather taxing, especially the first time."

[yamikuronue]

Lance scowls. "Yeah, except for the part where he's about as magical as a toad. Seriously, the fuck?"

Siegfried clears his throat. "I may have been... less than forthcoming about my abilities."

[accalia]

"Everyone has something to hide, evnen if one does not always know what it is. But still the hour lengthens and the food begins to chill, let us eat will it is still hot."

[CalamityJade]

Morden shrugged. "And it would seem this is new to him, and anything you could really find out about it can wait until after we eat."

[yamikuronue]

Lance scowls, but says nothing, letting Siegfried finish carving and serving.

[accalia]

Echo and Julie remain silent for the meal. After their plates are clear they remain at the table to engage in any after dinner conversation.

[yamikuronue]

Lance heads toward the stairs as soon as the meal's over, but Siegfried puts a kettle on for tea, in case people want to linger.

[accalia]

Julie sits forward and addresses Siegfried once Lance leaves the room.

Julie: You are a lucky person you know. You caught the attention of Ms. Schreien, though i'm still not sure how she got me talking about you. She asked me to give you her phone number and for you to contact her. -pause- I'll let you decide later if that is good luck or bad, Ms. Schreien is a very odd person.

[yamikuronue]

Siegfried tucks his hair behind his ear. "I appreciate the assistance, really I do, but... I fail to see what use this sort of power is for a humble butler like myself."

[accalia]

"Humble you are. Butler you are. This much is true, but this is not all that you are."

Echo speaks quietly but with conviction.

[CalamityJade]

Morden gave Siegfried a quick look. "Besides, if it is a natural ability, it would be better to learn how to use it than to accidentally allow another being to use your body. Besides which, I do have to agree with Echo. There is very little about you that is just one thing or another."

Obsidian, on the other hand heads after Lance. "And what, you're just going to disappear like every other night? What do you even do with the rest of your evening?"

[accalia]

Julie: Three men, strong in their own ways have the same words of wisdom for you Siegfried. It may be well to listen to them. At least call Ms Schreien. She may be able to help you understand that side of yourself.
