If she still had one, Leo's heart went out to Aubrey. Poor guy! "Oh, that's right. I almost forgot you lost those Babs." What was that thing that Babette liked to do? Put her hand over her heart? Leo copied the move as she spoke. "You didn't have to get me anything. I'm grateful enough to be able to spend time with you, Aubrey." That was only half-true. Half of her was happy to be sort of related to one of her biggest idols, but the other have was upset that it meant she was a vampire. She supposed it was livable, but she'd totally be looking for any sort of excuse to leave the house.

"No trouble at all, darling, you can pierce the flesh in every possible way now that you are made of the porcelain of the grave! Let me help you..."
Ellen- "Dad?? Maybe she can do it herself?"
"Why would she want to do that? I have the hands of a skilled craftsman."

She quickly stepped to Babettes side and placed a gentle arm around her shoulder. Leo to the rescue!"..Maybe that can wait until tomorrow? Babette did mention she was tired. I imagine the sun will be coming up any moment now.."

She concentrated: Ohmygosh, Allen from Boytown 5 is totally going to piece my ears for some reason. How dreamyyy.
Yeah, no. Imagination wasn't working this time. Well, at least she felt infinitely braver under Leo's arm. Babette gingerly touched her friend's hand. Poke!"It's okay. Lord Greyburn is a lamb. Right, Aubrey?" She closed her eyes - one might think Babette was afraid to watch, but she mostly didn't want a stud through her eyeball, healing powers be damned. "Here we go. My porcelain ears are ready. Did you know I first pierced them with a sewing needle? What pain, and so much blood. Worth it, though."

Aubrey- "Pish posh, the night is still young and so are you! Oh a lamb, a lamb. For certain."
Aubrey took Babette's earlobe firmly in hand...

Well. If he ripped off her ear and glued it to his face, Babette reeeally had nobody to blame but herself. She cracked her eyes open. "Is ... is it done? That didn't hurt at all. Hu-rah! And not a drop of blood. How lovely. I know Leo was feeling peckish ..." Wait ... he still had the earrings. Nevermind. "Carry on!"

Did getting her ears pierced hurt that bad before? Aubrey's nimble fingers punched the blunt earring post through her earlobe, and then he reached for the other. Aubrey- "Beautiful! You can pierce anything these days, you know..."
Ellen- "Oh dad! No, look, you've made a mess! I should go clean her up."
Aubrey- "I can clean her."
Ellen- "Ohh no no, that won't do. Because-- you will get a stain on your shirt."
Aubrey- " 'Tis true. It is so hard to clean these cursed fibers..."

Aubrey- "Hee hee hee hee!"
Ellen- "Yes, yes! Let's talk to Leo! Remember Leo, Dad?"
Aubrey- "Hmmm? Oh yes, this one. I like this one."
Ellen- "Second door on the right...!"

Yeaaaaahhh. Lord Greyburn's appeal was starting to quickly fade after that little.. moment. If he wasn't afraid to pierce her ears like that, what other things was he willing to pierce? Leo reached a hand up to feel the black studs in her ears. She was grateful she didn't have to worry about going through the same thing tonight. "Oh, yes, um. You mentioned you were working on something? Is it a surprise? I love surprises." 'Hole-lee shit. Play it cool Trileon, you got this. He's only a seven foot tall creepy psychopath..'

Aubrey- "I am ever full of surprises dear starling."
Ellen- "Yes, yes he is."
Aubrey- "Tell me, are you yet glad to have shed your mortal shell? I can hardly remember myself how it feels, but they always seem so messy. So full of fluids."
Ellen- "..."

Alright. Think Leo. Remember what Ellen said. Try not to say anything that will piss him off.. "I suppose right now it's a mixture of feelings. On one hand, I'm glad I don't have to do things like sleep anymore. I was never awake during the day when I was alive, anyways. Not having to use the bathroom is definitely a plus, too."
"..But on the other hand, I'll miss the simple pleasures, like cake and cigarettes. I don't know if I'll be able to get another tattoo to replace the one I lost either. I guess you could say I'm torn. I was upset in the beginning, but now, I don't know whether to feel angry or happy."
"Ugh, you'll have to forgive me guys. I'm not good with.. words. Does that make any sense?"

From nearby, a soft voice lamented, "Fluids. Like tears. Our bodies were mourning ... Blood. Viscera. Ooooh. No words are sufficient. Leo. Leo. Don't feel bad. The most wonderful poet could not describe something INEFFABLE. Though they try. Yes. They try ..." Then, it trailed off. Okee dokee.

Aubrey- "Oh yes, the art on the skin. I could paint your body for you."
Ellen- "Well now dad, it's been great but I should get the girls ready for bed and you do have gifts you make and you should get on that, yes?"
Aubrey- "I suppose... Yes. Goodnight lovelies. And Ellen."
Aubrey tottered off down the hall, and Ellen bustled Leo back up the stairs to meet with Babette. Ellen- "That went pretty well. Uh, besides the ears. Sorry about that. I should get you some dinner and show you where you'll sleep. I think we should probably share a room, if you don't mind. It'd be... safer."
