Dane watched Kerylia as Vampy spoke. He thought for what seemed like a long while, while the demon was thrusting himself against the wall. He began to feel like the stupid one now, but he couldn't let himself give up. He...just felt like he had to at least try.
The boy took a step forward, getting as close to the window as he could without being hit by the impacts waves, "Kerylia," He started his tone much more calm now and apologetic, "I'm, I'm sorry for insulting you," He started, swallowing his pride left a strange taste in his mouth, "I didn't mean to sound so mean to you, I just had built up tension. It was wrong of me to take it out on you," He spoke directly to the demon, focusing on him, trying to ignore the facts that any sort of attempt to connect with his genetic dad before had ended horrifically. He ignored the dungeon, and he ignored Vampy for a moment, "Please Kerylia, I'm sorry..." He said, "I am your son in a way, so in a way I'm part of you, can't we just both calm down and try to actually meet each other?" He asked wondering if the demon understood him, or even had the ability to connect, "Please Kerylia, you'll have food soon, when you do can we just talk? As...father and son? A nice talk?" He asked trying to get through to the glutton.

The glutton's shoulder and arm was begging to bruise and get bloody with each desperate attempt to break through. Breathing heavily spit foamed at both mouths it was beyond thinking straight. Though the words food seemed to give him pause. Growling and twitching the glutton sat down heavily though his gaze still read hunger, starvation...a desperate need to have the pair of them in his hands and his teeth ripping into their soft skin.
Vampy chuckled as the glutton sat down, "I think you over estimate his capabilities, a nice talk is probably beyond him." He murmured to Dane the sheild still in place in case Kerylia decided to attack again.

"Has anyone ever tried?" He asked feeling the pity again for Kerylia. Dane frowned a bit, he would have liked to believe his words were what got through to the demon though he wasn't sure if that was it or if it was the promise of food.
"The food should be here soon Kerylia, then we can have a talk right?" He asked softly, hoping that the demon was a bit more coherent now.
"I don't care if it's stupid or not, but I need to at least try to get some sort of positive emotion out of him..." Dane said to Vampy, "He is technically my genetic father...I have to at least try," He said with a sigh, "It's probably also a stupid question then to ask if it would be safe to go into his cell while he had his food would it?" He asked already knowing the answer. Though he felt maybe if he gave the demon some of his trust it might do something in that mind of his, there had to be something he could do to get a good emotion out of him.

There was a sound of laughter and it was bizarre that it came from Vampy in the first place. But it was a cold laugh a cruel one, no warmth could b fond in it.
"It isn't safe even if there is food. He could easily decide he'd rather eat you. Gluttons tend to prefer fresh food rather than cooked.." He stated sounding a bit amused at the thought of allowing Dane into the same room as the demon.
The others ears perked up again at the word food. He glowered at Vampy's direction it was apparent he would much rather at this moment be feasting on Vampy's bones.
"What want with Kerylia?" the demon asked finally though he fidgeted on the ground twitching as it the hunger was becoming unbearable.

"I probably would have guessed as much...but still," He sighed, "It just seems like it's unfair for me to expect him to be social, well as much as he could, while he's in a cell by himself," He shrugged a bit.
When Kerylia spoke again seemingly a little more co-operative now, "I just want to talk with you Kerylia, I want to make nice," He said trying not to insult the demon but get across to him what he meant. He noticed the demons fidgeting and tried to calm him down, "Don't worry Kerylia, food will be here soon. Not much longer now," He said soothingly trying to at least let Kerylia know that he was more or less on his side of getting him fed now.

The glutton wasn't use to having conversation, one could say he didn't have the attention span for it. But the word food seemed to be the only thing keeping him focused.
"Talk? Why...talk? Kerylia eat. No talk." He stated with a grumping sound a grinding sound like teeth being ground together came from his stomach.
Vampy only watched as they attempted pleasant conversation, he looked to his watch the smell of food was already wafting down the hall.

"You can eat, and talk at the same time," He assured him. He began to notice the smell of food as well, "I think the food is almost here Kerylia, then you can eat and we can talk. Haven't you wanted to make a friend before?" He asked wondering if the demon had ever thought of such things before. Dane looked down the hall from where the smells were coming to see if the demons meal was almost here.

"What use of friend? Kerylia eat. Eat friend. Eat everyone." He spat though he quickly got up as the smell of food reached his own nostrils he looked as if he was about to jump forward again but shrank back from the aura that baffled him the spurned from Vampy. The immediate area around Vampy and Dane seemed to drop to below freezing, and...was that the scent of cinnamon?
"Please stand back Kerylia, you know how this works." Vampy explained as the glutton hurried to the back wall...pacing as if half starved.
"Perhaps your wish can come true...you can enter his cell if you want...the door must be opened to get the larger parts inside. It's a tricky operation...perhaps you can distract him?"

"Friends have lots of use Kerylia. You can eat with them, you'd get to enjoy some one's company as you ate," He tried to explain, "And friends get food for each other, so if you had a friend you would get more food from them bringing it to you then you would from eating them," He tried to work with the demon, to help him understand in a familiar way.
"I wouldn't call it a wish," Dane said quietly though he seemed to be up for the task, "Sure, maybe it would help him trust me more," He agreed with a nod of his head, "How should I do it?"

Vampy moved as the techs arrived in droves each having a trolly full of food.
"First...I advise you not eat any of his food. He is highly possessive of it." He murmured as he nodded his head to the techs who all looked rather nervous of the entire ordeal.
He pointed to a turkey and an entire roast pig, "Try and distract him with those. I doubt he will take long to devouer them but it will be a start." He continued as he went to the door and proceeded to undo the binding spell on it.
Once the door was opened he gestured for Dane to go on ahead.

Dane nodded a bit. He realized this was dangerous, but he felt it might also be very helpful in the end, "Here Kerylia, I'm gonna come up and give you something to eat while they set out your food," He said first before picking up the pig and turkey. He went through the door and cautiously toward the back.
"See, here's the food, just like I told you," He said with a smile, "And you can eat these, while you wait for them to get everything in," He explained to him as he first offered Ker the turkey.

Though lacking a nose it was easy to tell that the smell was driving the glutton demon mad. Salivating more so than before its eyes looked to Vampy who had moved to stand in the back of the room and the techs moved in and out carrying the loaded trays of various foods.
He was soon distracted as immediate food came to attention, the turkey...he reached out and snatched the thing as if it was nothing more than a rag doll and bit and tore into it. The mouth opened expectantly wanting to join in the feast and he reached out for the pig in Dane's hand though it was hard to tell if he was reaching for the pig or Dane at his point.

Dane was a little surprised at how quickly the demon started to go through the turkey and by the fact that he was also reaching for the pig. Even so he wasted no time handing the carcass to the hungry demon, "There, see, food, just like you had wanted," He said giving the demon another smile even though he was sure it would go unnoticed.
Dane tried not to focus on how disgusting it was to watch Ker tear into his food though he hoped at least in some part of the demons brain he realized that Dane had brought him the food and thus made a friendly gesture, "Is it good?" He asked politely trying to make some form of conversation as the demon tore into the meal.

Vampy watched from the background, ready just in case even if the glutton seemed preoccupied all it took was the sudden want and need for live flesh before thing could be taken out of hand. He kept his aura in check though most of the technicians seemed to rush in and out fast as their legs could carry them, not wanting to linger inside of the glutton's cell for long.
THe glutton's stomach opened wide to nearly slurp up the pig and it was nothing, Ker reached down fastening a hand on a leg as if he was fighting for a piece of it...despite them ending up in the same place the competition was fierce. He managed to rip the leg off before the stomach consumed the rest of the beast with little problems. The crunch of bones seemed to unnerve all the humans in the room.
It took barely any time at all for him to finish the food before his ears were twitching at the sounds of feet moving, the smell of the food was moving him past the edge of coherent thought. The glutton demon only paused for a second before the boy's words reached his ears, it took only mer seconds before the glutton lunged for Dane in a desperate attempt to grab him hoping perhaps if he got ahold of the boy he could shove him into his large stomach maw before Vampy could react.

The boy was surprised but not unsuspecting. Once Ker lunged his arm toward him Dane instinctively jumped backwards out of his reach. He frowned deeply, he really didn't know how else he could get through, he'd tried just about everything, even food wasn't helping much, "Damnit Kerylia," He furrowed his brow, "There is food here, I even brought you some food personally, can't you even comprehend that I'm trying to be nice?" He said this time on the ropes. He had no ammunition left, he'd tried just about everything. Dane continued to back up some, just in case the glutton tried to make another lunge.
