[Dorian appears on the screen. He looks BAD. Well, as bad as he's going to look. He looks like... well... he looks like he spent the night outside in Siren's Port. In reality, it was only about forty minutes before dawn that his dubious darkness-protection failed, helped by structural damaged inflicted by Grellzilla. And, he spent most of that time hiding. Still, that's enough.

He's clearly worse for wear.]

I need a place to stay.

I've got a job. I've got money.

Whatever is outside... got in last night. I-it's all gone. I need someone to help me retrieve what's left, too. Is there anyone available? I've got a job. I've got money. I can pay.

Gosh, mister, you look like you had a really bad night.

Re: [Video]

[mostbeautiful]

...

[Shit.]

I-it's you... yeah I did.

[brat_from_hell]

If you already paid your monthly rent, paying someone else rent is going to cost more than getting your Darkness proofing fixed, you know.

[Video]

[mostbeautiful]

I did get it fixed. It was that giant blasted red.... THING!

[Video]

[brat_from_hell]

Oh, you actually could see what it looked like?

[He sounds a little surprised.]

Anyway, Xellos and I own the Seyrunn Shop of Sorcery and one of the shop's services is Darkness proofing. I can give you a grand opening discount.

[mostbeautiful]

Shop of... that's cute. Now leave me alone, little one.

[brat_from_hell]

You'd rather go sleep on someone's couch than pay for good quality darkness proofing?

[Video]

[mostbeautiful]

I'd rather have real darkness proofing not done by a child.

[that_is_asecret]

Oh my, Mr. Dorian.

It isn't wise to insult a sorcerer prodigy didn't you know?

[No Problem]

[mostbeautiful]

Who are you?

:D

[that_is_asecret]

Xellos the mysterious priest. Co-owner of the Seyrunn Shop of Sorcery.

[mostbeautiful]

Uh huh... cute. I don't play around with seances and all that rot.

[that_is_asecret]

[All that rot was it?]

Thats not really what we focus on.

[mostbeautiful]

Then what DO you focus on?

[that_is_asecret]

A variety of things, herbs for various purposes healing, protection mostly. Spells and devices to protect against the darkness, darkness proofing.

[mostbeautiful]

[Dorian really didn't pay much attention when his proofing was done.]

I don't hold with 'spells' it's not Christian. Besides, I'd rather have it done properly.

[that_is_asecret]

Christian? What is that?

[mostbeautiful]

You're joking.

[that_is_asecret]

Not at all. There are no Christians where I'm from.

[mostbeautiful]

What? What kind of heathen place is this?

[that_is_asecret]

Canada or so I have been told. There are other worlds apart from earth you know. You still haven't explained what a christian is Mr. Dorian.

[mostbeautiful]

Whatever. I'm not interested.

There are Christians in Canada.

[that_is_asecret]

[What a rude man]

I see. This is a group that is important or something?

[Video]

[soul_scatter]

The person I sent to repair the Proofing did not fix it?

Re: [Video]

[mostbeautiful]

What? No! They did. It was a fine job too. But then there was that thing... and the ground shook and... well...

Re: [Video]

[soul_scatter]

I see. I do not know of where you can stay, unfortunately.

[It's one thing to invite Hinamori or Matsumoto into the house without discussing it with Hitsugaya. It's quite another to invite an outsider.]

[Video]

[mostbeautiful]

When I came back, it had re-opened a little. It was all right for a few weeks but...

[Video]

[soul_scatter]

I had been assured it was completely repaired. I will speak to the person.

[Video]

[mostbeautiful]

Oh no, the repairs were fine. It must have been compromised by that large red... THING. And I do not hold your man responsible for that.

[wingedcrown]

Easy. You shouldn't have to pay someone for them to put you up until you get back on your feet, for starters.

If you want, you can stay with me.

Video

[mostbeautiful]

[Well hello, gorgeous and accommodating.]

May I? And what's your name, then?

Video

[wingedcrown]

It's Dani. I have a fairly small apartment but it should be fine until you can get back on your feet.

Re: Video

[mostbeautiful]

Do you have a chaperon, miss?

Video

[wingedcrown]

A what? Why would I have one of those?

He's Victorian please don't murder.

[mostbeautiful]

A young lady, alone, inviting a young man to her home. I would expect you to have some sort of escort... your father? or a brother perhaps?

It's adorable

[wingedcrown]

[She holds up one finger.]

I don't have a brother. And my father isn't here. I'm old enough to take care of myself. I've been living alone, back home, for four years.

He tried to get X-Men's Jubilee to take in his laundry once

[mostbeautiful]

Ah, I see. You are a woman of some independence then. Well thank you for your hospitality.

[gavesugar]

[Never let it be said that Sheila doesn't believe in altruism.]

I hath a warm couch.

[Video]

[mostbeautiful]

Oh, hello, my dear. Are you well?

Thank you very much for the offer. I may take you up on it.

[Video]

[gavesugar]

[Her cheeks flush vaguely at the endearment.]

La, very well. I hath moved out of the Towers, to a somewhat better locale, thanks to my employ. If ye cannot find a better place to stay, I am here.

[She sends along a map with proper coordinates.]

Re: [Video]

[mostbeautiful]

That is good. I never did like the towers. I may take you up on that!

[ooc: Actually, since it's been a while, I'm just going to hand-wave that he has been couch surfing from place to place and you're on the list! If you want to do a scene with him in her apartment though, I'm game.]

Re: [Video]

[gavesugar]

'Tis a small apartment - a wee garden at the back for my herbery, but modest enough. Perhaps ye shall enjoy it!

[OOC: I'm all for him moving into Sheila's! Somewhat of a scandalous move for somewhat of her time - it'll be fun!]
