[ Anyone Looking for Accommodations in the City Royale ]

[There's an address written in.]

Rent's paid through next month. Take it, I don't care. Landlord will be thrilled, I'm sure.

If there's more than one of you, settle it yourselves.

----

Quite the entertainer, our Paradisa. Parties and festivals and carnivals and balls. Don't know how you're not all sick of them, they happen frequently enough.

[He doesn't sound that bothered, though. In fact, there's a distinct upward swing to his tone. Someone's in a good mood for the first time in a long, long while.

There's a pause, and his voice starts to wander like he's splitting his attention.]

Still, can't complain. This one has the potential to be decently interesting. Ah, excellent.

[There's faint hissing in the background, from what sounds to be at least two or three of the fairies.]

Oh, be quiet. That's hardly the worst I could have done.

Comments

[ino]

... [you know, she was going to make a comment about how parties are fun and he obviously wouldn't know because he is LAME!!! but those noises .... suspiciously:] What are you doing?

[workaphilic]

Experiment.

[hullo_sweetie]

Somehow I sense you're not much of a party person.

[workaphilic]

Not so much anymore, no.

[hullo_sweetie]

Ah, so you partied hard in your youth? Got to be a bit much or did you just get bored?

[workaphilic]

Priorities changed.

[It's not an era of his life he likes talking about much.]

[onlyanapple]

...Finally decided to get yourself a pile of cats to add to the crazy image, huh?

[workaphilic]

Cats, what do cats have to do with anything?

[The concept of a "crazy cat lady," something else he deleted, heyo.]

[onlyanapple]

Because you're...

[Sigh. It's not worth the effort, Crowley] What are you talking to that's hissing?

[workaphilic]

Fairies. [He draws the word out; he's still caught up on the whole cat thing, kind of miffed that he doesn't understand. After a moment he apparently decides it's not important.] Not nearly as cooperative as the last ones.

[confidente]

Sherlock... [ OH DEAR GOD. ] What did you do?

[workaphilic]

I needed a sample.

[confidente]

[ A groan. ] You can't be serious.

[workaphilic]

[WHAT]

It's a valuable opportunity for comparison. It'd be irresponsible not to.

[cantacquityou]

...I wouldn't call that the most effective way to advertise a place...

[ Filter ]

[workaphilic]

That's because it's not an advertisement. Take it or leave it, makes no difference to me what happens to it.

[webbing]

You know I have no problem with however many festivals it wants to throw, because these are usually the only events that don't go horribly... horribly wrong some way or another.

And now that I've said that I have to go find some wood to knock on, because I'm sure that just jinxed everything.

[workaphilic]

[A hum.]

We are a bit overdue, aren't we?

[webbing]

For something that wasn't completely awful, or for another dance?

[commandsthewind]

I'm used to such things every evening. So this is all a little... well, mundane for me.

[workaphilic]

The castle can be known to spice things up, in its way. Occasionally.

Wouldn't get my hopes up, though. Majority of the time they're as mundane as they seem.

[commandsthewind]

Mm, I am well used to dealing with every kind of person with I like it or not. Compared to my time, and my life otherwise, it is already rather mundane. For instance, no one has to check my food before I eat it.

filter also don't mind my... lateness....

[foolreversed]

...Seriously?

[ filter ] never late!! ♥

[workaphilic]

Yes.

I don't need it anymore.

<3 also filtered forever

[foolreversed]

...It's not laden with booby traps or any other suspicious stuff is it?

Like I'm not gonna be cleaning one day and find stashes of cocaine in the floor boards or a bomb, right?
