Thank you for your concern Rook but I do not trust herbs or plants that I'm not familiar with. Due to the...composition I guess you could call it, that my body is now made of things act differently. While it might act as a stress reliever for normal people it can act as a joint stiffener for me or possible have no effect at all and that would be a waste of such a useful plant. *He nodded to the man* I'm sorry we havn't met before but I hope to get to know you some other time. For now I have more work to do. *With that he left for the office again.

Vice entered the dar in his usual manner, went right to a table and sat down lazily. As soon as his butt hit the chair his head hit the table and he sighed. "Think... What could I have done wrong... what could I..." he growled a bit at himself, not liking mistakes with such delicate workings. if it was something he could not fix then everything would have been over...

Sitting in the rafters, reading a book and drinking tea, she was surprised to hear Vice enter, toiling over something. "Perhaps you have done everything right and there is something different with the items you are using. Often I have found when performing certain tasks, such as potion creating, if everything you use is not completely right, for example, if any root is present when using witch hazel for the potion to help keep a werewolf tame when transformed, the potion is ruined and will have no effect. It is nearly impossible to tell which is root or plant after it has been taken from the earth, it is important to make sure it is harvested correctly." she said simply, not looking away from her book.

"That would be true, except for the fact that everything I used was perfect. First of all, everything there I had used before. Secondly, I checked everything before using it. I probably made a miscalculation or brain matter or did not properly bind element correctly. Fixable things..." He did not look up as he spoke, using her as a way to express his thoughts out loud. "Glad to see your in good health." He meant what he said, though he was not talking about physical health. For once he did not begin drinking, he just sat there.

"Thank you, I believe. Though .. I have not been ill. Are you ill?" she asked, wondering if he said that because he had just recovered from something.

Vice paused for a moment, then let out a slight laugh. "I did not mean you health... I ment your mental and emotional wellbeing. I suppose I need to say what I mean." He looked up and snapped his fingers, a piano appearing in the corner of the room. For a moment he simply looked at the piano, then shook his head and looked at her with the slightest of smiles. Suddenly he stood and went to the bar.

"That cannot be determined by viewing another. That is the same as judging a book by the cover." she said softly to him, watching with curiosity as he conjured a piano. "Do you play piano?" she asked, hoping this would answer why he conjured it.

"Of course." Vice said as he grabbed a bottle of Vodka. It didn't matter if he drank or not anymore, most of the time he didn't even feel anything. "I taught Reevis to play it, along with the violin, the guitar and how to sing. He already knew hot to play the flute though." He laughed a bit and looked at the piano again. "Sometimes I want to play it, but I have denied myself of that pleasure for a very long time." There was no need to touch on what she said, some things were better dropped.

The book and tea disappeared from her hands. Dropping to the floor below, she wandered in his direction. "You pine for him also?" she asked, looking to him with a calm expression.

He opened up the bottle and shrugged. "I raised him to be what he was. Though I was hard on him, he was probably the best... son I had. I did have a neice who was better though. His fate reminds me of hers." He smiled a bit and took the bottle to his lips, drinking as much as he could in very little time.

She bobbed her head, silent for a moment. "To you .. I owe an apology for not taking better care of him. We .. had so much to learn and to know .. I was confused and did not know it. Now that it is too late .. many things are clear. The phrase .. hind sight is twenty and twenty, I believe, comes to mind." she said softly, watching him with a somber, apologetic expression.

"Don't apologise. His death was noble... rather than letting something control him into doing horrible things, he chose death. There were things leading up to that point that could have been avoided, but that stands for everyone who was close to him." Vice walked past her and to the piano, pressing down on a single key. "But word of advise: next time you are in a relationship with someone, do not look at him with eyes that disapprove of something he has done all his life. Thats probably what did the most damage to him on your end."

"What .. I loved him for who he was. Did he tell you I was displeased with him?" she replied, watching him with concern.

"I saw your reaction to his puppets." Vice said as he sat down in front of the piano. His hands ran over the keys, but did not press down on any of them. "You stepped away from him and looked at him as if he had done something wrong. He thought he had done good; so when the two opinions clashed he began to... question himself. There were probably other cases, but I did not ask him." Sighing, he brought the bottle this lips again to have some more Vodka.
