Welcome to your life, theres no turning back It had been such a long time since she'd stepped foot into this castle. Standing throne room darkly. So much had happened here. So much Darkness gathered and built up here. It hovered over the city of Radiant Gardens like a bad omen. Well... Why couldn't it be? It fit the history after all. And she felt so comfortable here. But the reason it had been so long since coming here was because of those pesky Restorative Committee. Annoying little things. Not that they would pose much of a threat to her. They were just annoying to have to take care of. A Fly on the windshield of her car.
"You should own this castle Mistresssssss. This should be your home." Said Envy, attempting to get her to take up arms against the somebodies and against her own plan. But Lilith ignored it. She gazed around at the once beautifully decorated walls. This should be hers. Perhaps... But she was going after a much bigger throne. A much bigger goal than just... Radiant Gardens.
"We can not stray from the plan Envy." She said quite softly to herself. This was not her place. Not her throne. And it never would be. Which was alright. Radiant Gardens had never been her favorite world. "It will be mine someday... Just more indirectly then you think."
It was at this time that she felt another presence within the room. Another Heartless.... She stood staring at the Throne wondering oh so curiously who it was that was disturbing her piece. She searched the words of the lesser heartless around her. Wondering who her guest would be. But they were skittish. They wouldn't speak with her. She did not ask them directly of course, but she did search their subconscious.
"We should leave Mistress." Said Pride matter-of-factly. "We are already trespassing onto the land of the Committee. Perhaps they are here to ambush them?"
"Shut up." She muttered very softly to herself. Then much louder, "You can scare away all the ladies by sneaking up on them like that?" She said rather casually, continuing to stare at the Throne before her. - - we will find You acting on your best behavior.

the devil takes many forms What to do, what to do. That was of course the question of the hour wasn't it? He had found himself with a surprisingly lack of interest in many of the things that had previously filled his life with interest, and while the hunger in his belly would never be satisfied he had his fill of Hearts for the moment. That removed one of his new favorite pastimes off of his checklist, but he still had so much more to go through. Thus in an attempt to find something interesting to fill his life with, he had wandered onto Radiant Gardens. From what he understood of this world it was a place of light, or at least it was trying to mask itself as one. It held a much darker history within its stone, and a history that made the hairs on the back of Alastor's neck stand up. The source of this history? Hollow Bastion. The large castle dark castle that towered over the world and made anyone who stare at it long enough feel its imposing presence. Luckily Alastor wasn't bothered much by history as fascinating as it could be. So, with his top hat resting firmly atop his blonde head and his cane held tightly within his hand he wandered into the castle. He spent a lot of his time exploring its halls, examining the vast amount of rooms that the once lively castle held, and even made a pit stop towards its labs. Nothing in any of these rooms matched what he found in the throne room however, an aura that could only be coming from a powerful creature of darkness escaped from it. He had of course noticed earlier but had quite honestly tossed it from his mind in favor of exploring the castle more. He now stood in the doorway of the throne room; his back pressing itself against the doorframe he could only stare at the back of the woman of the who was sending shivers down his spine. She had noticed him. It wasn't exactly like he was hiding though, but nonetheless she had taken notice of his presence. At first she ignored him, and continue to have a conversation with herself. What she was saying Alastor couldn't quite make out but he doubted that it was important, it was only after a few more seconds of staring that she finally spoke to him directly. Her attention never left the throne and as if showing off, Alastor willed himself towards the throne. His body appearing directly in front of her, yellow coat tails flapping about in imaginare wind. His legs were folded and his cane was now leaning against the right side of the throne. Alastor let his smile grow wide and he placed his elbow against the throne's armrest, propping his face up with the palm of his hand. "Sorry it's just...I've never found someone as beautiful as you before." he let a out the smallest of chuckles, "Your darkness is truly captivating, puts those weaker Heartless to shame I'd say." he had met her before. He couldn't quite remember where though, he had been alive for so long that faced just blurred together sometimes. Yet you would think he'd remember a person with darkness like this no? "Alastor's the name my dear and what do I have the pleasure of calling you?"@one @two @three | ### | whoop whoop

Welcome to your life, theres no turning back He was familiar. His presence. She'd certainly felt it before. Not quite at pronounced as this before, and it was such a long time ago. She had met a lot of heartless in her time. They came and went just as quickly as one could blink. There were so many that she had the pleasure of reading. This one... she could not.
The moment he appeared into her view she had her eyes directly on him. Her full attention being given. Did he deserve it? She wasn't quite sure yet. But he certainly had an appearance that deserved to be studied.
Her eyes ran over the man that now leaned on the throne in front of her. The expression on her face was blank for the moments until he spoke to her. "Sorry it's just...I've never found someone as beautiful as you before." Her right eyebrow raised at this sentence. Was he trying to flatter her? Everyone was partial to some kind of Flattery. Even Lilith was. "Your darkness is truly captivating, puts those weaker Heartless to shame I'd say."
A cold smile formed on her lips as she heard him speak. It hardly reached her eyes, but the eyes of Lilith were not as revealing as one might think. This man, he was intriguing, but she did not yet know what to think. So she said nothing to him. Not at first.
"Alastor's the name my dear and what do I have the pleasure of calling you?"
Alastor?" she thought to herself, pausing and studying. He was dressed to impress. Had a quite flamboyant personality. Lilith herself was calm and proud. But in some small way, this man reminded her of Nagi. It was that smile. That insane "I know more then you think I know" smile. She could hear the snakes in her head hissing. Hissing. Hissing. Something was frightening them. Was it this man?
"Lilith." She said in response to him. She realized, that most other heartless were drawn in simply by her darkness. Drawn in by her words. Drawn in by her aura. She'd not thought of how little she had to try and draw those around her in. It was convincing them and keeping them that was the hardest part. "I thank you for your Flattery Alastor. It is not everyday that one gets such words from a complete stranger." She said.
She was interested. But if shown then the act would be broken. Who was he really? Alastor being his name, but where did he come from? "But I wonder..." She said moving over to sit on the other armrest of the Throne and turning towards him. "Is that really why you are here? At this castle? To give me compliments? If Alastor's your name, Whats your game?" - - we will find You acting on your best behavior.

the devil takes many forms Lilith, Lilith, and some more Lilith. The name rang around inside of his skull as he tried to place it, tried to remember if he had heard the name somewhere before. Sadly he couldn't recall with perfect clarity where he had heard the name before, but it did seem familiar; much like she herself did. There was a bit of pause after she said her name, perhaps examining him more? Alastor did not know, but the feeling of her eyes on him it made his skin tingle. It wasn't the frightening kind of tingle either, it was more intense and dare I even say more passionate type of tingle. The grin plastered across his feature grew wider and when the silence between them was finally broke Alastor let out another small chuckle from his lips, "I wouldn't say we're complete strangers dearie." he wasn't going to hide the fact he felt like he knew here. If they were going to have any kind of progress in this imaginary relationship he had built inside of his mind, it needed to built on some sort of trust right? He readjusted his position on the throne so that his fingers were folded tightly together and held against his chest, his smile fading as Lilith made her way to the throne's other armrest. She sat, her body towering over Alastor's own. Standing, he was likely taller than she was but sitting as they were? She held the power of the conversation. She began to to speak to him, her voice a whisper inside of his ear. "I'll admit I was here for another reason, but those are matters better left..." he brought a finger to his lips "Hush, hush." he was teasing her of course. Denying her of the information she sought from him, even if the reason he was here truly was something as bland as looking for entertainment. "Besides why's that matter my dear precious Lilly. I've been derailed from my previous plans by the dark flower that is you." he grinned wide and suddenly his body vanished from the throne. It reappeared behind Lilith and he brought his face close to her ear, "A flower so dark it makes lesser men on this world tremble, I dare say that I'm in awe."Another flicker and his body disappeared once more, taking shape back on the throne. "I am no fool though, I know better than to reach for people higher than me." his smile grew sly, and one dare say even seductive. He brought his hand up towards Lilith's check and began to caress it lightly, "Yet those golden hues of yours, they just draw me in Lilith." he was clearly being a little over the top but what was life without a little bit of fun? Surely she'd indulge his habit, and they could both enjoy a game of wolf and snake. @one @two @three | ### | whoop whoop

Welcome to your life, theres no turning back "I wouldn't say we're complete strangers dearie." So he felt the recognition as well as her. She'd met him before. But she knew that she'd have remembered his face. Perhaps he was not always like this? Maybe she'd met him before he became a heartless? No. She had felt him as a heartless before. Of this she was certain.
She didn't respond. Wanting to give him the benefit of the doubt. If she could remember who he was, then she would indulge him, but until then he was a lost memory that needed to resurface.
"I'll admit I was here for another reason, but those are matters better left... Hush Hush." He was playing with her. She could tell. There were two possibilities for why someone like him was here in the castle of Hallow Bastian. One he was looking to take it over or some other important detail. Two, he was here like her, trying to fill some spare time that didn't include in staying in one place for long periods of time. However, her suspicions were confirmed nearly clearly enough when he spoke next. "Besides why's that matter my dear precious Lilly. I've been derailed from my previous plans by the dark flower that is you."
Lilly? She rather liked that name. Damn him for sneaking through her defenses with such a simple thought as that. He was here like her. To get away. To do something interesting. Not that there was anything interesting here in the Castle except for the dark feeling of power that it brought to one. That it brought to Lilith at the very least. If there were something important that this man were doing, why would he stop to speak with her? Unless she were in the way.
The snakes in her head were silent. Silent. They were upset about something. And it probably had to do with this man. Should she feel threatened by him? That was the big question now wasn't it?
With a sudden flash the man was gone and within an instant she could feel his breath on her neck behind her. She closed her eyes, A small shiver crawling up her spine. "A flower so dark it makes lesser men on this world tremble, I dare say that I'm in awe." And then his presence from behind her was gone and once again he sat beside her on the throne.
"I am no fool though, I know better than to reach for people higher than me." His voice, smooth, sticky, smelling of honey. She knew what this was. Especially when she felt a hand come up and cup around her face. She opened her eyes and turned them toward him. It was funny... Even Lust was silent now. And with something like this, she'd be talking up a storm. "Yet those golden hues of yours, they just draw me in Lilith."
She sat with him, gazing into his eyes for several moments, letting him play his game. One that she suddenly had the strongest desire to play back. But she was the queen of all the worlds. She knew not who this man was. But she would surely not let him take her down so easily. She would not let him coax her into a being of complete submission. No. She was the queen. He was not.
"Then perhaps..." She muttered softly to him as she reached her hand up and gently pulled his hand away from her face. But she did not let go of him yet. She leaned in close to his face, inches from his lips and whispered, "Perhaps you really are a fool." Then she pulled away. Slowly, her eyes never leaving his. She slipped away from him, like the snake she was, pulling away from the throne itself and making her way down the hall. This conversation was not finished. And it would not be finished until she said it was, but that didn't stop her from wondering. - - we will find You acting on your best behavior.
