*Taking the drink, and thus far ignoring Bella, he nodded with something liek approval, and sipped at it before answering*
Deeper than teaching... it reassures me that even WITH all the worst council in the world, whenever I talk to you directly, your OWN common sense and experiance weighs over what peopel TELL you.
You are experiancing everything it is to be Tzimisce, Cainite, Antitribu, undead, inhuman, monstrous... and still Leer. I wont answer you yet, but you're getting there on your own. Somewhere inside, you KNOW the answer to the question you want me to answer, and in time you will become sure of it. Only then will I be able to tell it to you in words, and hope you really DO understand. But suffice it to say... should you meet Final Death, I would be more than just put out.
You're smarter than you believe yourself ot be Leer. Follow your instincts.
*He sipped again at the drink and inscribed a picture in the air with a finger - the familiar overflowing chalice with a single blood drop above it*

Grinning softly, she dropped her arms from her waist and followed behind Leer as he went back to the bar area. Standing near the counter, she used her hands to push her tiny body up onto it before curling her legs under her body. Her tail flickered faintly behind her as she sat and simply watched what would happen. Of course, she was expecting for them to end up exploding at one another and fireworks going off. Besides she knew it'd be best to remain quiet for the most part, less chance of getting his ire directed at her once again.

the familliar picture only made himt tihnk. Did that have something to with it? Obviously,...but what?
"You think I'm capable of someting you're not....What it is I don't know..."
There was question in his voice. like he was asking a question and trying to answer one at the same time. his form shifted to his more prefferred one. the one that took after Ice's. Hs wings folded adn stretched slightly in the air. He'd not worn thsi form since they'd last met. Suddenly though he felt that since of paranoia slip from him. Was it because Ice was here, or merely because he realized something though?.....

Does what I think matter? And if it does, can you just trust it?
*He smiled at Leer, and let the image in the air fade, finishing his drink*
Do not be afraid to think, or to be wrong. You have eternity. I have not and WILL not lie to you Leer. That I promise. The word of a monster.

He'd never been afraid to tihnk, but he wasn't sure what answer he was looking for anymore.
"Does what anyone thinks matter? After all, they just content themselves with hurling insults at us, why should it matter what they THINK we are."
He smirked slightly. He felt like he was making progress. Here maybe not in the original direction, but still progress.

Tilting her head to the side, she thought about Leer's words before shrugging slightly. "Maybe just common compassion and faith in things," she suggested in a tone that said she doubted it, but she didn't think Ice had compassion anymore... Shaking her head once again, she started to toy with her hair before turning her eyes on Ice as he spoke. She was tempted to make a comment, but knew better then to say anything that was on the tip of her tongue. Bitting down on her lip to keep from saying something, she looked down at her lap.

Keep going Leer...
*He smiled at his Childe, a genuine smile, his eyes flickering briefly before he was again the unreadable sadist. His head turned slowly to look at Bella*
Even those who do not intend discrimination or stereotyping, they will still do it subconsciously. Im incapable of caring about anyone but myself, right Bella? Yet... they dont see it in themselves. How is it, being Bound to the stubborn gunslinger, Thrall?
Remember Leer... see all, take it all in, and remember. Make your own decisions.

Leer was gaining more insight to this as he went. Becoming more confused? Yes, but somehow seeing it all the same.
"You don't mean to say that you sired me merely for my own gain, do you?"
That couldn't be right. He knew there was more to it. Ice would eventually expect something in return. One thing he'd learned. NOTHING was free.

Turning back to regard him as he spoke to her, she simply grinned and shrugged slightly. "You were the one that said you were unable to care or love," she told him before pursing her lips slightly at the other question. Her tail flickered more behind her as she thought about how to be careful with her words, finally deciding to forget it she. "It could be worse. I could be insane or being raped at this point," she told him, being blunt about it. "You said yourself I had other options, I thought about your words... and I saw the other option was before my face," she told him, wondering what he'd think or do about her statement.
Hearing Leer's question, she raised an eyebrow as her eyes flickered towards him then to Ice once again. That didn't seem like Ice... doing something for nothing. Even when he had done things for Bella, he had done it for a reason and had got his payment in the end...

There is more to it than that, yes. I was looking to Sire, it didnt HAVE to be you. But the reason WHY it was YOU and not someone else? A lot of it, you could say, WAS for your own betterment more than anything else. It was your choice. And you were the RIGHT choice.
*Again, the gaze found Bella*
Yet I am a liar. I am Syn Deciet. What can you believe, what do I say that can be proved as true or not? Maybe Im lying even now. Maybe that matters, maybe it doesnt. Leer's opinion is the only one that will matter to me here. You are Iden's, end of story.

And now he was lost. Why would ice od something simply so Leer oculd benefit? Certainly there was some reasonning behind it....
"But "liar" and "Deciet" are titles and discriptions placed by others correct? that's what people think...But it doesn't matter what anyone thinks....it only matters what oneself thinks, correct?.....
you Sired me because I choose it...because it was what I thought...what I wanted. As opposed to pushing some one into it, you found me....completely and entirely willing..."
the last part again sounded unsure. As though he was asking more then answerring but still thought he was getting to the answer....
((and now I have to go, sorry guys))

Shaking her head once again, she kept her eyes on his while he spoke to her. "But, yet... you told me before you'd never lie to me. Or was that a lie then," she asked him, tilting her head to the side curiously like a cat would do. Snorting faintly at his last words, she rolled her eyes slightly. "I am my own, he may be my Regnant, but I still have my freedom and I can do as I wish," she told him before crossing her arms under her chest and huffing again.

Bella, after three drinks, you're infatuated. If he says jump you wont even wait to ask how high.
*He looked at Leer, with sympathy and a smile, running on hand down the boys' back, admiring his wings as he did so*
Deciet is my job description. It is who and WHAT I am. Its complicated and one day I'll explain it to you, but there are times I cannot HELP but Decieve, and when one wears a mask too long, you forget what you looked like underneath. And I forgot the day I was Embraced. How much is a lie, how much is truth? There are days even I dont know. Figure that into your equation. You get closer to the answer with every little realisation.

Almost growing at him, she shook her head faintly at his words before sighing faintly. "You think I'm that daft? I know how the bond works. I only meant, that he is not the type to force me or ask me to do something knowing I don't want to do it," she replied back to Ice, throwing off on him about what he had said about raping her.
Watching him stroking Leer's back and his wings, her tail flickered more almost as if she was nervous before looking back down at her lap. "And how do we know when you are deciving us? How are we suppose to be able to figure out the half truths or the hints and the meaning behind them," she asked him. Hearing the comment on him not remembering his embracing, her eyes widened slightly as she started to piece a bit of it herself together... or so she believed anyways. He had been quite... mad about how she had asked him what he had looked like before then... did that mean he didn't remember more then he let on?

Leer laughed as Bella questionned his Sire on how to know when he wa slying. As for Ice, for the momment, he merely allowed him to continue to stroke his back and wings. No harm done yet....
"You don't know. Part of the game. Deciet is a hard game to play, and if one is good at it, you'll never know. It's really a bit more fun that way...."
Every time something was added to the equation, Leer felt like he was taking two steps back and then four more forward...although these forward steps were always unsure...as though he was walking in the dark.
"so...I don't know why you embraced me...perhaps it doesn't matter...point being I WAS Sired. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks of it, merely that I wanted you to Sire me, and you wanted it, and I'm glad it happenned. Because of it I'm better off, because I was practically already one of you, and it doesn't matter how much is lie or truth, point being I am what I am....."
This time he seemed more sure of his answer as tohugh he knew he was headed in the right direction. Something inside him gave him a feeling that he was merely a step away,a ndif he could just find out one more detail he might understand the whole thing....
