Aden couldn't say he wasn't at least a little interested in this meeting, another one with Drake, huh? Well he merely hoped that this time around the kid wasn't wearing expensive jewelry that set the demon to attempting to snatch both the item and the child for his own. He read it over and blinked a couple times, "Wait... a second." He murmured, reading over the notes several times over, "Interesting." He couldn't help but to feel himself grow that much more eager to meet this kid. He had the exact same DNA as the last boy that had come to visit Drake.
He moved a little more quickly to hover by the front gate, taking the time to get himself a smoke while waiting on the boy to appear. When he did the gate would be opened up for him. Of late it was locked tight due to several incidents...

Vincent was able to come to the facility on his own this time, last time his mother had come, it'd been a diaster. Meaning that his mother had intentionally distracted the techie by flirting with him. He was mildly surprised to see that the gate was locked, and paused in front of it for a moment, thinking. He'd been wise enough to leave all important belongings at home, he'd heard of this demon.
If he was anything like Vinny was himself, the spawn knew he couldn't trust him with anything. In fact, the only thing that might of been of value on his person was the gem in his forehead. He knew that wasn't likely to come off--he'd tried. "I'm here to meet Drake," Vincent said, seeing Aden.
He was relieved. The techie from last time wasn't there.

Aden looked toward the gate then to his cigarette that was only half finished before giving a nod. He took the butt end of it in his lips as he moved to unlock the gate to allow Vincent in, "Excellent, he is looking forward to meeting you." He said, looking Vincent over closely himself, "Marvelous." He said as he took the cigarette from his lips after one last drag of it and flicked it aside.
"Not long ago I met someone with the same DNA as you, both angelic and demonic and the two of you look nothing alike. Its just amazing." He said, before motioning toward the door, "Ahhh... Alright then, lets get going and we will meet with Drake." Better they start walking toward the demon quarter lest he end up spending more time marveling over Vincent.

Vincent walked in through the gate, looking at Aden. "You must mean Aludra," he said with a smile. "I think he's the only one I know of that has the same dna as I do. We call ourselves twins, even," he paused, and frowned slightly. "Why would he be looking forward to seeing me?" As humility, he couldn't see anyone ever wanting to meet him, though he did seem good at making friends. He would never admit that, if asked.
"Drake's the demon of greed, right?" Vinny asked, looking to Aden and smiling. "I met Celestoria last time. Can you tell him I know how to float now? He doesn't need to worry about teaching me anymore." Vincent was as interested in Aden as he was in the spawn, to be truthful. "What's Drake like? Well. Besides greedy, I already know that about him."

"No doubt its his greed showing through, wanting to see and be around more of what he calls 'his' children." He told Vincent, as he lead the way from the gate to the door, opening it to let them inside before starting toward the area where the demon's rooms were located.
"I can tell him for you, yes." He said with a smile, "I don't often get to see the angels so it would be a nice excuse to do so." Even though he wondered how an angel of humility would take to someone visiting him for no reason other then to have a chat when it wasn't even one of those who shared his blood, "He has a rather strange sense of humor I can tell you that. He likes to steal things from people that they need but won't realize at first are gone. I've lost a few pens to him, my reading glasses once... its why you will need to leave behind anything you might have on you that you want to keep." He cautioned him
"Hes not a really dangerous demon from what I have seen, those sorts are kept locked away downstairs... or at least what is left of them." Though of the three that had lived in the dungeons the only one left was J'her...

Vincent smiled. "I know how that's like. I like being around my friends a lot because I'm greedy. I got into a fight once, because I didn't want to share one of them," he found it easy to talk to Aden. "I'm sure Celestoria will be happy when you tell him," Vinny said cheerfully. "I really wanted to visit him again, instead of seeing Drake--but I think that's because I haven't met Drake yet."
He paused and grinned. "I didn't bring anything he'd steal, don't worry. I keep all my special stuff at home, so no one takes it." It was a wise thing to do, keeping his stuff at home. "The only thing he might want is the jewel here." He pointed to his forehead. "But I've tried taking it off before, so we have nothing to worry about." He continued following Aden down the hall.

Aden gave the gem on Vincent's forehead a glance before giving a smile, "That's neat, I always thought that maybe Drake did that to himself but seeing that you have one as well must mean those gems occur naturally." He murmured, finding it a bit fascinating that such a thing were possible.
"We can see about having another meeting arranged for you and Celestoria at some point. I rather want to meet more of the angels myself, they seem interesting though harder to get access to then the demons it seems." He almost wondered if it were the fact that one among them had gone missing that made the security around them a bit tighter these days.
he paused as they reached the door to Drake's room and he went digging through his pocket to get out his keys and opened the door up, "Alright, let's go in."

"Yeah," Vincent said with a smile and a nod. "Just like how I got my headwings." He gestured to them with a shrug. He paused, and his smile grew. "Really? You guys'll let me see Celestoria again?" He asked hopefully. He really hoped so! He had so much to tell the angel. "Why are harder to see than the demons?" he asked with a frown.
"The demons are more dangerous, aren't they? I thought the angels were all good, so security would be less tight when it came to them..." He seemed confused. Why were the angels harder to see?
He followed Aden to Drake's door, and went inside. He silently wondered what this meeting would be like.

"It has to do with the rarity of the two species. Its harder for the Boss to get his hands on an angel since he can't go to where they live. He is able to travel to where the demons live so he has a better chance of catching them. At the same time the demons are kept under lock and key so... they are both difficult in their own way." He mused, "Lately the angels are a little tougher to see only because one was lost recently, as such the Boss is being a little more careful with them."
He turned to head into the room that Drake was kept in.
The demon was already walking in as they pair walking into the room, a grin showing on his lips, "I see that you brought another of them to see me, Aden. I am almost starting to think you might like me." He said, drifting closer and his hand reached out... a moment later the demon had lifted the man's pen from his pocket, tucking it away behind his ear while his attention turned them to Vincent.
"Another spawn, eh? Interesting." He murmured, lifting one hand to poke the boy's in the forehead, just below the jewel that was located there. There was a part of him that wanted to steal that precious gem but at the same time he knew the danger of taking it. If he lost his own he wondered if he would survive that... he would be cautious, having no desire to hurt the spawn. He was greedy, not murderous.

"Why not just get fallen angels?" Vincent suggested logically. Well it was logical, if you thought through the stories Vinny had heard about angels falling to earth, regaining their wings and living happily ever after. "If an angel falls, don't they come to earth? They'd genetically have all of their traits, right? So there wouldn't really be any difference." Naive boy was naive. "Maybe your boss would find it easier to ask one of them for help."
He paused when they got into the room, and gave a smile towards Drake. "You can't take it," he explained as he was poked. "I've tried. It's stuck there. Just like yours won't come off. It's probably not even worth much," he added hastily, just in case the demon decided to try it. He guessed this demon was much more powerful than he was, and probably could do things Vincent himself could not. "Well, um. I'm Vincent, but I prefer to be called Vinny. And um. You're one of my dads?" Awkward much?

"There is one around the Labs but from what I have seen the Boss has very little love for their kind." He said, at least that was what it seemed like from his point of view. He gave a smile, "Perhaps I will pass the suggestion along, it might prove to be less of a hassle." The angels didn't seem as comfortable in this place as some of the demons.
Drake gave a soft chuckle as the boy seemed to be reading his mind and he lifted a finger up to poke it against the gem that Vincent had in his forehead before giving a little nod of his head, "I am aware... I have one of my own I have tried and failed at removing." On many occasions he'd wanted to add it to his collection... then again he'd also wished to figure out a way to add more to it at the same time.
"Vincent, is it? I am called Drake and yes, you are one of mine." As a demon of greed he was more then happy to claim what was 'his'.

"See, I knew it couldn't come off," Vincent said, studying the demon in front of him. "I haven't brought anything with me, so you don't have to worry about stealing from me." It seemed Vinny knew the sin of greed quite well; well he would, since it was his nature. "Maybe next time though, I'll bring you something. As a present?"
He paused and listened to the demon, before smiling. "Nice to meet you Drake. You can call me Vinny." He too knew the need to claim things as his; whether they be people, animals, or objects. "So... Um. Well, I don't know really what to talk about," he said, giving the demon an apologetic glance. "I've never met a demon before. Where did you live before coming here? What was it like? I'll tell you all about my home, if you want. You'd probably like it--no one's ever guarding their stuff."

Drake tilted his head, "I lived in a cave." He said in a manner that sounded as though he were joking but... the look on his face was serious, "Its where all of my wonderful treasures are kept... and are still waiting for me to return to them." He seemed for a moment to have an almost dreamy look on his face when he thought of his treasures as they were what was really important to him in this and any other world.
He looked at Vince before a smile spread across his lips, "Is that so? If I ever get out of here I will pay your place a visit if there is truly nobody there that is watching after things." He loved places that weren't well guarded, it meant everything within them was up for grabs... and he would take full advantage.
Aden looked between the pair and stepped back, leaving them to talk as it seemed for the moment they weren't in need of a mediator.

Vincent listened to Drake eagerly, like a child listening to their parent telling them a story. "I bet you're eager to get home," Vinny said with a small smile. "I know I would be, if I couldn't be with the things I cared about most." He would have hated being pulled away from his family. He was most greedy when it came to them.
"Just not my things," the spawn warned Drake. "You can't have my things. You could probably have anything else in the house," he said. "I'm sure we'd be glad to have you. Maybe we can each give you a present, so you wouldn't have to steal them? My parents are really big on giving presents--it doesn't even have to be a holiday or someone's birthday." It never occured to Vincent that the demon of greed might take advantage of his parents' generousity.
