Noire stuck her finger in her mouth and attempted at picking at the piecesof food that were stuck in her teeth. A nasty habit that she learned from some western actor that she watched frequently on TV. She smiled at Sian and leaned back in her chair, kicking her leg up so that her sash covered between them.
"Mm... I've been okay.. Just watching a lotta' TV, peeking on the two little brats, y'know.. same old... How about you? Didn't somethin' happen to yer' arms or .. something?" She tilted her head.

Sian swatted at Bete's hand to get it out of her mouth and gave her a toothpick. The thought of all the germs on Bete's hands going into her mouth like that made Sian cringe.
"That does sound rather normal. If you were bored you should have come over to the shop and hung out with Malise or something." Sian stopped for a second before going on.
"Not just my arms... All of me." She stood up and took off her sweater to reveal black and silvers marks across most of her body. She lifted up her t-shirt a bit so that Bete could see the gold 'mark' made when the silver from her left side met with the black from her right. The marks also moves onto her back and then down her legs. "There's also make-up on my face to cover those ones..."

Noire blinked at the presence of the toothpick. Confused as to what she should do with it, she shoved it in her mouth and crunched on it with her somewhat sharp canines. A loud CRACK could be heard, and she looked at Sian uncomfortably.
Then when Sian revealed her markings, her eyes went wide.
"Wha --- Wha? What happened..?" She murmured astonished, pieces of broken toothpick falling out of her open jaw.

"You're supposed to pick your teeth with the toothpick I gave you... Not eat it." She rolled her eyes before slipping her sweater on over her head. Taking her time before answering Sian leaned back in her chair and yawned. "I think... That it's a part of my inheritance. I've had it before, but it went away and only went up to my elbows. Now it's over my whole body. The funny thing is though, I only got it last time because I had to use a large amount of energy to protect myself." She sighed and went on thinking. "Maybe it has something to do with the thing inside me..."

"Erm..." Noire slowly reached into her mouth as her ears hung low, and pulled the broken pieces of toothpick out of it. She gave an innocent smile and skittered over towards the trashcan to throw it away.
"Your inheritance?" She mirrored, swiping her hands together to make sure she got all the little pieces off. "What do you mean?.."

Sian watched Bete with a smile then put her hands flat on the table. She noticed how they were scarred and a bit cut up and smiled. "An inheritance is something that you are either born into or given by someone else. I was born into mine in a very odd way, I suppose one would say. But basically it's what makes it so that I can do magic and control, or need... certain things. I also need some things to stay alive that others wouldn't find quite normal."
Her forehead furrowed into a frown as she went on. "Because of that however, I no longer have a family and I was living on the streets before Meru and I...uhhh... Bumped into eachother." Sian didn't really think that Bete needed to know that Meru and her had only met because Sian had broken into Meru's house.

"To stay alive?" Her head tilted from one side to the next, in a very curious manner. "What do you mean?" She pointed a finger towards the sink. "Like how I need water and food and air and toys to stay alive?"
Noire moved her fangs over her lower lip, and bit on it softly, still pondering. "I wonder if I have an inheritance?"

Sian nodded, "Yes a lot like that. Just they aren't tangible things like toys or food. They're jsut a wee bit different." She smiled as Bete's face turned into a look of concentration and thought. "Hmm, maybe you have your own sort of inheritance. You never know."

She jumped out of the chair, causing it to tilt forward against the table with a thunk, and she skittered over towards a small tea table in the corner of the kitchen. There sat several picture frames, one of them held a photograph of Allure holding Bete Noire's egg. Allure seemed so happy there, that Noire cracked a bit of a smile. She reached forward, grasping the frame lightly between her clawed fingers. With her free hand, she traced the symbol that seemed to glow upon her egg. "Hmm.. Maybe.. Maybe I can learn more from you? Tell me more about your inheritance?"

Sian's eyes turned a bit said at Bete's request, her smile however stayed on her face. "Hmm... There's not much to tell other then it allows me to use magic, and help people. I also got this nifty little necklace when I figured out that I could use magic. It lets me store... things in it." She pulled out a crystal globe with a dragon's claw around it from around her neck. It swirled with a few colors as Sian placed it on the table idly.

"Ooo.." Noire went and set the picture frame down on the table once again, and inched towards where Sian set her necklace down. Her eyes immediately went to the swirls of colors and the intense magic that seemed to brew within the globe. She was completely transfixiated by the mysterious trinkit, and her eyes started to cross one another. "Wow..." She whispered faintly. "What.. can you store inside?"

Sian tried not to slap herself in the face for not seeing this coming. She stayed silent for a few moments trying ot figure out what to say without freaking Bete out too much. "Oh you know.. Souls and stuff..." She said pathetically unable to come up with anything else. Her smile dropped into a look of sadness as she uttered the few scant words.

"Erm..?"
Noire was very confused .. what could she mean by that? "Souls? .. You mean.." She pointed to her chest, as if to reach inside. "You mean soul-souls? Or ..." Her ears bent downwards as she attempted to listen closely to the necklace, as if she were to hear something like screams?

Sian nodded, "Yup soul-souls. One of the things that keeps a being alive and lets hem move and be who they are. However, when I get them they aren't part of a person anymore, and they don't make much noise." She commented as she watched Bete.

There was a faint rumbling sound upstairs, something to the effect of something rather heavy rolling across the ground. Silence followed these noises, but it was soon broken by the sound of somewhat identical laughter. This meant the twins were awake, and Allure was already having some trouble.
Bete Noire wasn't sure how to respond to the sound of that. Souls? Did that mean if she was bad, her soul would be sucked out as well? She narrowed her eyes, still trying to figure it out, trying not to let the noises from above distract her. "So you get.. lost souls? Dead souls?" Her brows narrowed some more, she remembered hearing something like that on a TV show.
