Luther smiled, "I am aware that you Vampires turned by Vampires are usually stiffed out of the deal, due to clumsiness or in some cases malign intentions." He then spun around confusedly, and grinned, his eyes scanning for any signs of a trick or an illusion; he found none, and he used to work at a freak show. "I was and can be that type of person, but I have developed patience and a neutral attitude towards fellow Vampires, but my animosity can be set off by idiots like the Spaniard." He took off his Ringmasters jacket, revealing a simple black silk shirt with the signet of an English Noble Family he used to entertain.
He could see that she smelled the blood, and sighed theatrically, "I am currently doing research, into what I hesitate I to tell you; it is quite gruesome." He grinned, and fell backwards onto the Sofa, taking off his top hat and placing it carefully on the side of the sofa. "Well, you may always count on me, ma'am, it's not like I have anything better to do with my self, so I might as well be helping someone less fortunate with her powers." He toyed with a shadow, spinning it with his finger, making it make small patterns in the air. "But I have to stay this is the best thing that could've happened to me, I had just about given up on life before I got this gift from the Void." He sighed, and said "Would you like a real drink? I have a spare human somewhere in my little abode."

“You can tell me. I don't mind messy stories.” Cosette whispered, her honey smooth voice just inches from his ear. She was behind him again, toying with her single ability; standing just behind the sofa she had taken a fancy too. She watched with the curiosity of a kitten while Luther played with the shadow. He had quite the dazzling abilities, alluring power that Cosette could only dream of. She was weak, an intended flaw of a vampire and constantly dependent on others, always allying herself with those that could stand up for her, and clean up her messes. Luther, She was certain would do just that. Just a bit of charm, a whisper of her smooth voice, a bat of her pretty blue eyes...She would have him eating out of her hand in no time at all.
“It will be lovely to have someone to count on. Although Mr. Creepy, I won't enjoy it very much if you run off all the time. I get bored so very easily.” Her hands intertwined themselves over his shoulders while she spoke, her fingers locking at his collar bone. “I am very...particular with who I kill. I don't see how someone, probably some poor unfortunate soul trapped up in god knows how horrible a place would suit my standards. I don't presume your spare humans are kept in favorable conditions.” She muttered softly, Her lips nuzzling at the skin just below his ear, a tempting display. If Luther fed so often, his scent stained with blood so powerfully, Cosette wasn't sure she'd be able to contain herself so smoothly. “Do you have any idea...how delicious you smell?”

Luther smiled, still toying with the shadow. He quickly flicked his wrist, his finger spinning around into complex possitions, eventually a small portrait of Cosette hung in the air for the briefest of moments, before it faded away. He put his hand up and stroked her face lightly, his eyes closed, his mouth curled into a smile, and he shuddered slightly when she wrapped her arms around him, he hadn't had this sort of moment for two hundred years, he inherited many Vampiric abilities, but Charm was not one of them. He knew what she was doing, but that didn't mean he minded it.
"The humans I keep do not make any complaints, I make sure of that." He smiled to himself, he didn't mention the gags and straps he had to stop them from screaming, he was told to do that by the Building owner after he woke the Foreign Elder Vampire. He nearly laughed out loud at the smell comment, he knew that he smelt unusually like Blood, it made him into the Vampire he is today, he had drunken so much of it in his time, he started to wonder if the Blood was the only thing that gives a Vampire power, that Elders were so powerfull because they had simply been drinking blood longer.
He hesitated, and decided to tell her about his research, if he drove her away then so be it. "A side project of mine is the Human capacity for Pain, but I am also researching something much more important, the reason why Humans may be turned into Werewolves and Vampires, I need as much Human blood as possible, but I also need either Lycan or Vampire, and because of the honour of the Coven I usually go for Lycans. I've managed to find that there is a special gene, implanted into Humans at the beginning of time by an unkown force, which allows them to become one of the other, the Wolf or the Bat. I haven't found out all the facts yet, but I have to test as much blood as possible, and the Blood bank won't suffice." He sighed, he knew this would bore her, but he couldn't help himself.

The deadly scent of the blood heightened her delicate senses, scattering her own thoughts and presenting the jumbled minds of others. Distracted as she was, Cosette couldn't zone in on any singular thought, a busy hum of those all around the large room, fragments here and there giving her the start of an irritating headache. She did however, Manage to pick up a few things from her new friend. “Probably because you have them bound and gagged.” She simply stated, As though she knew for a fact that it's exactly what he had done; Not that it would have been a far fetched thought. She wouldn't bet that he was exactly kind to his 'experiments' considering his demonstration earlier in the park with that poor women and the blood that stained his essence in massive quantities.
“You sound like a mad scientist.” She hesitated just for a moment, Her little fingers fidgeting with the collar of his shirt from behind, ensuring that it was perfectly symmetrical and decent looking if she was going to be seen in his company for the near future. Cosette didn't appear in the least bit repulsed by his research. In fact, she seem genuinely surprised and even pressed on for more. “ I can only imagine how difficult it might be to gather vampires for your experiments, even without the having to honer a coven. We are so stubborn, proud and believe death can't touch us. Most..won't even see it coming until it's too late.” She was speaking softly, low enough that unless any of the others in the room were listening carefully, Only Luther would hear her. She whispered as though from experience, The murder of her own race. “It wouldn't be terribly difficult, You know.” She planted a kiss, Just below his ear, charming her way into a sinister plot that had blossomed in her twisted little mind. “If we were careful and clean, vampires wouldn't be hard to capture for your research. The sudden rash of missing vampires could simply be framed for the lycans or the hunters, it's simple really” Cosette again paused with another kiss and then, drawing close and whispering so only Luther would hear, She added. “ And surely, A vampire's blood is the most powerful. That Spanish for the first, Hm?”

Luther looked at her, a look of unveiled joy crossing his face, he wouldn't be able to do it alone, but with Cosette's incredible speed he knew that he may be able to do this, he knew that his research was more important than the entire foundation of this god-forsaken city, it was the key to unleashing the thing he hadn't told Cosette about, the Gene that would destroy the special cell in Humans and Lycans, letting the Vampires become sealed to anyone who didn't get one of his special injections, the Void had sent him to do this, he KNEW it.
He bit his bottom lip, she might as well have been dancing on a table and performing a striptease, but he didn't care, she seemed so perfect, but he could still sense a broken and manipulative mind; a perfect match if he had ever seen one. He stroked her face absent-mindedly, "That is the best idea I have ever heard, Cosette, you are a quick and intelligent lady." He turned around and hugged her, an evil glin flickering across his face, this would be the point where an evil person with no elegance would laugh insanely, he simply smiled a chilling smile, and dance mentally.

“Yes Yes, I know. I'm downright near perfect. “ She murmured against him when she was embraced in a clumsy hug, She was grinning from ear to ear. They might have similar ideas, devastatingly sinister in intent, But like Luther; She couldn't do it alone. Tired of being weak and dependent in others, The powerful blood of older vampires seemed the quickest route; but her swift talent wasn't nearly enough to complete the task on her own without getting herself killed. However, With the voidmaster at her side, It would be downright easy. She could do the enticing and luring with all her charm and elegance, and Luther? He would do the messy things, the slaughter. And, Even If worse came to worse, Blame would fall to Luther. Obviously the older of the pair, The far more powerful. Cosette would claim innocence, Manipulated into the situation; Who wouldn't believe this face? She was basically the essence of innocence.
“But let it be known, I am not doing anything messy. Completely off limits, Understand Creepy? That'll be your job.” Cosette gracefully slipped from the hug, slithering out of his arms with a swiftness that couldn't be detected. She was still grinning, but modestly now as she picked up his fancy top hat and placed it on her own head, planted atop the mass of luscious golden ringlets. “We make quite the pair, Don't you agree?”

"Don't worry, milady, I am accustomed to the 'Messy' things, as you saw in the park. But I'm afraid that I am not accustomed to talking my way out of things, so you may have to use seduction, or at least some charm." Luther had dropped in the Seduction idea more as a hint that he knew what she was doing, but it was quite a subtle hint that Cosette probably wouldn't notice. He sighed theatrically, "Now, brainwashing is one thing, but I'm afraid that I cannot do that for more than a few minutes; usually they're in no state to question anything by then." He grinned.
"Yes, we are quite the duo aren't we? We could easily take this City by storm if we so wished. Although, we may need funds, I have only progressed so far in my own workshop because of my Will and manipulation of Shadows, but to do something this large scale we would need more, I could easily rob a bank or loot from a store around here, but I don't think we want to draw attention to ourselves just yet." He grinned at the small Cosette, she really was quite the Lady.

-Aiden enters the room after climbing the stairs. He looks around and sees vampires all around.- "Finally i'm home." he says aloud. -He walks over to the couch and sits down to wait and see what all happens-

“That won't be a problem. I can lay on the charm better than anyone.” If she had noticed the hint Luther dropped, Cosette either ignored it and played coy or simply appeared not to notice. Even if at some point her calculated scheming fell through at some unfortunate point, She didn't feel it would be terribly difficult to pull Luther back to her side with a few gracious words and convincing little kisses. She was as confidant as they came, So sure of herself that nothing could possibly go wrong. Still giddy on the newly discovered devious plot, Cosette left his side. Tip toeing to the center of the lavish room and as graceful as any dancer, She began spinning around in elegant little circles. Dancing like a child whom just receive the most wonderful present, contempt and lost to her own mind as the little blond spun around.
“Funds. Oh please, I've got plenty. We don't need to be petty and rob banks like common criminals. That would just be so below me, You must understand that..” Cosette had stopped so abruptly, so well composed that one might have expected her to topped over from a fit of dizziness at any instant; But there she stood positively still with her dainty hands on her hips. She did it again then, utilizing her abilities and appearing in front of him, so swiftly as her hands slipped past his shoulders and trapped him between her slender arms against the sofa. She was so close, those baby blue eyes baring down into his. Again, She could smell the enticing scent of blood that smothered his body. It was possibly one of her most favored qualities about him, expect for his wonderful abilities. “So, The Spanish first? Pleeeeasse, I want him first. He was around here somewhere, I can smell him.” She was whispering, So soft and compelling; speaking only to him. “Though, I don't suppose we could so it here. That would just give us away, wouldn't it?” She muttered, Clearly pouting that the fun would probably have to wait.

Luther smiled as she spun, so child like, so easy to manipulate; but he knew that they were playing the same game here, and he loathed to admit that she was winning, he was as sharp as a tack, but she was Nobility, deception and manipulation were gifts to her from her long and probably blue blooded family tree. He relaxed on the sofa, twirling shadows in between his hands like Cats Cradle, forming complex patterns, throwing small beads into the mix occasionally, he came out with a Pendant, which slowly turned to Silver, the beads glowing like the rarest of rubies.
"I presumed that due to the ravaging of the years your Families' funds would have nearly disintergrated, but I suppose I presumed wrong." He hated being wrong, it made him shiver and get angry, but he suppressed it masterfully, vowing to take it out on the spare human in his abode. "The Spaniard it is, ma'am." He smiled, she was good at this, and god damnit he didn't mind.

“Yes, you were wrong.” Cosette didn't hesitate to rub the cruel truth in his face. She absolutely loved being being right, Perfect in every way. “I ought to be insulted you would think I wouldn't be careful with my inheritance. After an 'unfortunate accident', I was conveniently left the sole heiress to the entire fortune.” Clearly, The unfortunate accident was no such accident at all. The spoiled brat, terrible in nature; Had secured and massacred her way to riches long before immortality had even touched her precious blood. It was only convenient with careful planning and investing that the wealth had not only aided her when she ran off to exploit her musical talents, but also supplied her with her every whim and needs a hundred years later.
“So, Shall I lure or least favorite Spanish into a more covenant place? Any suggestions where?” Cosette didn't really care for his input on the matter, but it would help the twisted game flow smoothly if she allowed it. The gleaming object that had formed from the Luther's shadow caught her focus, causing her to hesitate and reach a curious hand to intertwine her fingers around the pendant for a better look. It was a pretty thing, obviously holding her attention. “I suppose it would best if you kept your distance from our lovely Spanish since the two of you don't act very civil in one another's presence. In fact, The two of you would probably just end up completely forgetting about me, Just like last time.” The hint of scorn tainting for tone was evidence enough that she was still a tad upset over being ignored back in the park, but at the time; She seemed more consumed with the shiny pendant to give much thought to it.

Luther scowled, and threw the pendant to the ground, it shattered into thousands of shards of shadows which melted into the ground on contact. "That Pendant was a pretty and delicate thing but it still broke on the mearest hint of contact, do not forget that, Madam." He tried to stifle himself, but he couldn't help it, being ordered about wasn't his style, he was the manipulator, he hated every minute of being ordered to do things, but there was something about Cosette which crept into your mind and scratched it mercilessly, clinging onto it, making you want to obey her.
He calmed himself down, and said "I think that my apartment would be the best bet, I have much more power there, I positioned the lights in a specific way, the shadows are thick and large in quantity, I'd be at the advantage seeing as he is a marksman and I manipulate shadows." He melted into the sofa, and stood up behind her, cracking his neck as he did. "He may still be in the Coven Hideout, I can send you to him if you so wish." He flexed his hand and a small ball of fog appeared in it, contained as if by a shield. "This is a faster way of short distance travel, it'll send you to him almost immediately, so just tell me when you are ready."

Cosette’s slender figure had fallen deathly still upon Luther’s violent outburst against the poor pendant. She had liked that pendant, there had been no need to go off and destroy it. People shouldn’t destroy pretty things. Cosette couldn’t help but wonder if his callous words had an underhanded hint at her own existence. Pretty and delicate, there was no doubt in her mind that Luther had more than enough power to destroy her just as easily. However, Cosette was willing to bet that poor Luther was already too far under to charm to fall to such extremes against her without a valid reason. Cosette tore her gaze away from the space on the floor where the pendant had met its tragic end and set those enchanting blue eyes back upon him. While her expression remained as placid as any well practiced actress, there was the slightest hint of malicious intent gleaming in the baby blue. For Luther to make a threat against her life, It set the unspoken line. The truth that they were both playing the same twisted game and that at any instant, one might turn on the other.
“Okay, I’m ready” She shrugged muttering. Cosette spun around to face him, at the same instant stepping away from his looming figure and put an intentional distance between them. “Although, How am I going to find you when I have him? I don’t know where your apartment is. “She didn’t look at Luther as she spoke, Instead planting more attention in patting down and smoothing out her blouse in preparation for Luther’s odd means of travel.
