[color=bc8dbf]"Tsk,"[/color] Livia sighed, leaning back in her seat and gave Himeko a cold look. [color=bc8dbf]"I was attempting to be civil, you know, but I suppose I'll simply be blunt, since that is all you fools ever seem to understand."[/color] Livia lowered her voice, leaning over the table a bit as she gave the other people around them a cautious look. [color=bc8dbf]"The ruling parties in this city...shall we say, don't take kindly to non-humans or those humans that can perform...certain feats. My family is one of the only ones who have legal permission to do so. I was going to offer an ignorant traveler protection,"[/color] She leaned back in her chair, giving a dismissive huff. [color=bc8dbf]"But I suppose since you are a human, you don't need to worry, then. Apologies for bothering you."[/color]

Livia got up from her chair, just as Gerald was bringing out their food.

[color=bc8dbf]"I'll be eating with my sisters after all, Gerald."[/color] She said, motioning to him. With a friendly smile he sat her food on the previous table, and proceeded to bring Charlotte and Himeko their as she took a seat.

[b]"Here we are..."[/b] Gerald sat the food on their table, quickly setting everything up. "[b]If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to call."[/b] With that, the servant left and they were free to do as they wished.

[color=a187be]"...if what she said is true that might pose problems for both of us, Himeko."[/color] Charlotte replied. [color=a187be]"What do you think?"[/color] Livia was still close enough to pursue further conversation if they wished, but it seemed like the younger girl might have been done with them.

[color=bc8dbf]"A demon am I?"[/color] Livia gave Katherine a light swat on the back of her head. Nothing too hard, just a little friendly shove. [color=bc8dbf]"Better a demon than a pervert who flirts with their sister."[/color] Livia returned to her previous seat, taking a great interest in her food now that she didn't have to speak with Himeko and Charlotte.

[color=fff79a]"Welcome back, sister. Have fun harassing the travelers?"[/color] She gave Livia a smile.

[color=bc8dbf]"Hm...they were quite obstinate. I was simply offering potential help should they need it, and they were quite rude."[/color] She looked over to Katherine. [color=bc8dbf]"Are you done making Marise question her morals, Katherine?"[/color]
