Leo slid back into her seat; There was a bright, surprisingly happy smile spread wide across her face. "Well, I should live," She holds up her bandaged finger, "But we'll have to wait and see. I could be terminal!" She glanced over to Eli for a second and patted his back with her other hand. 'Boy have I got some shit to tell you, my friend..' She turned back to Marchese and Santi, "Your servants are very helpful Marchese. Whatever you are paying them, I suggest you give'em a raise."

In response, she gently punched Eli in the shoulder. She was starting to get a little anxious. Leo- "Relax, homie. I'm invincible! Nothing can slay the almighty Trileon!"
Leo- "Well, no more questions from me, I guess. How about you Eli?"
Eli- "No, that pretty well knocked out whatever few thoughts I have in my pretty little head. Do you two have any questions for us?"

Marchese- "Mmmm... What to ask?" Santi- "I will ask, do you think your art is worthy of patronage and why? I don't mean that to sound rude. Just trying to see how you regard yourself."
Marchese- "Good, and I will ask... The flesh that you live in. It is an animal matter, sweaty and needy and requiring unpleasant functions to continue. Is there anything about being alive that you could do without?"
Eli- "Hah, no softballs for you guys. Uhhh... First question first."
Eli- "I dunno if patronage is the right word for me, but I'd certainly be along for the ride if one of these schm-- friends got some. I mostly work on commission, I don't have the hard-hitting ideas but I got the skills to pay the bills."
Eli- "Second question is... unique. Um, well yeah. If we could switch over to robot bodies, that'd be pretty sweet. It's so expensive and boring to take care of your needs. Much as I like napping, I'd prefer if I didn't have to sleep at all. Getting old will probably suck too."
{originally} To Santi,"Well, to be blunt, yes. For the most part, I let my work speak for itself. It's difficult to put it into words, just because what I tell you doesn't matter. I could talk about the length of time I spent or what techniques I had to master or the amount of clothing I've managed to destroy doing these behemoth floor to ceiling sized paintings I've been working on lately....but that doesn't really matter. The impression my art leaves on you is what's important."
"That probably doesn't fully answer your question, but there's no good way to justify it without showing you my work." To Marchese,"Beyond the obvious answers of sickness and the nastier parts of being human....Probably aging. Shriveling up, becoming weak, losing your memories. I don't think anyone's fond of that. It'd be easier if we could stop physically aging at around thirty and just die like that." "Other than that...I almost feel compelled to say sleeping, since it wastes so much time. But it just feels so good. Same with eating and drinking. It would probably be better not to have to do those things, but then that would mean not experiencing so many delicious meals. So...it's a hard choice."

Leo stopped to think for a moment. It wasn't hard to answer Marchese's question, but she wasn't sure how to answer Santi's.. She gave it a shot anyways, Leo- "I don't know if I can really give you an answer you're looking for, Santi. I mean, I've done paintings here and there - Nothing compared to Eli, though - but that's not what I am here for, right? I'm the makeup artist. I suppose if you want to see what I can do, you'd have to watch the movie. Took me hours to get Babette's eyeliner just right, and Ru kept moving his head. Chloe actually managed to stay still so I could work my magic... What I am getting at is I don't really have a way to show you my makeup skills; You'd have to talk to Babette or Ru, maybe.." And then to Marchese, Leo- "I think I agree with Eli. Wrinkles are not my thing. But I think I could also go without eating. Sometimes I'll eat, like, tons of sweets and feel disgusted afterwards, you know? I never gain more than a pound or so, but just makes me feel.. Ugh, sick."
Eli- "Man, of all the things. Candy? You wouldn't want candy?"

Leo- "Ha, you got me there. Alright, then I'd rather go without sleep rather than cake. It's not like I sleep much anyways. The night is always beautiful."

Marchese- "Ah yes, I enjoy seeing people eat, enjoy seeing people take all kinds of pleasure. Per vivere il piacere di vivere!" Santi- "Well, that's good, that's good. You seem passionate about what you do."

Eli- "Hey would you guys like me to grab you something from the refreshments?" Leo just kind of sat there, not really knowing what to say. Now that Eli had mentioned it, she remembered that Santi and Marchese didn't eat at that massive feast earlier.. Maybe they just weren't hungry? Oh, wait. That's right. Leo- "Santi.. I wasn't there at the time, but you showed up late to dinner, right? If it ain't to personal, cool if I ask why?"

Marchese- "Believe me, if we were hungry, we would have eaten. Not ones to deny ourselves that which we desire." Santi- "Oh, I had a lot of arranging to do, talking to people on the phone. Nothing exciting, I assure you."
Marchese- "Yes he's quite precocious." Santi- "..."
Eli- "Haha, hoo, that's not a compliment I ever got. More like 'when are you gonna be a big boy and wash your own cereal bowl for once?' "

Boy, Santi sure looked pissed. 'He has an adorable mad-face.' "Right.. Kinda wish I had the same quality; I've been told I mess around too much, or don't take things seriously enough. The way I see it, growing old isn't an option, but growing up is. ..If that makes any sense." ((Only post I'll be able to make tonight. I have to wake up early! Also, for some reason my edit's refuse to work..))

Marchese- "Soo... Are we ready to move on then?"
Santi- "It's been interesting."
Eli- "Sure, g'night folks! Sorry for the-- yeah. Stuff. Bye!"

No way in hell Eli gets to Aubrey's table without a Leo in tow, haha... Apparently, way. Leo made her way to the Hangin' Loose space. This table was open!

Ru "Good evening, gentlemen." Ru seated himself near the other two, with arms joined with Babette. They had a strange synergy together, like siblings rather than close friends. Ru himself seemed relaxed, with eyes half closed as he watched the two men, and then folded his hands together. Babette- "I'm Babette and this is Ru."
