Claude lights Kristoffer’s first then his own and takes a long soft pull. “Black Stones. Most are old,” he says exhaling smoke. “It’s still continued though. Really strange." They were smoking an older pack; he appreciated the taste, stale and dusty. In ruin. Claude smiled deviously studying his face, his reaction. “Suppose you had a name just for now, for today, who would you be?” KRISTOFFER KROWE

He looks at the stick of tobacco, then brings it up to his lips for another inhale. He doesn't smoke them enough to notice a stale taste, nothing to compare it to, but he doesn't seem to mind.
A grin tugs at his lips as he let the smoke escape past them, eyes focused on the other. He flicks away a bit of ash, crimson dropping into an ashtray that sits on the table between them. "Just today?" There's a playful mysteriousness about him, the white strands of hair catching the breeze as it passes by. "Not tomorrow? Or the next?"
A chosen name, Kristoffer was his pick, but if he had the opportunity to be whomever he wanted, who would he choose? Would he stay the same? He isn't sure. "Perhaps Angelo. Or maybe Kristoffer is better fitting?"

“Angelo.” He repeats. It sounded nice, he liked it over Kristoffer. Angelo it just rolled off the tongue very charming, seductive. “How about today you be Angelo and I’ll be Kristoffer.” Kristoffer brushed his hair back tucking it beneath his ear and looked to the tower smiling. “It has a certain charm, much charm.” KRISTOFFER KROWE

An open-mouthed grin. His tongue grazes the backs of his upper teeth in amusement. "Alright," he agrees and takes another puff, letting it out again into the wind.
"Kristoffer."
He never says his own name and it feels strange on his tongue. Their drinks and food arrive, the little one taking a sip of his coffee. It, too, was heavy on his tongue, though far less bitter of a taste. The cherries sweet and satisfying.
"And what is it you do?"

“Modelling.” Smirking he takes a sip of coffee. “It’s small time and leaves me with a lot of free time. For leisurely pursuits, painting, gardening and walks in the park that lead to fleeting romances with strange women and men.” Takes a bite of his chesh danish, his movements are more careful and delicate. “And what do you do?” KRISTOFFER KROWE

"I play with money." His fork gently pushes into the flesh of a cherry, syrupy red coating the prongs as he takes the fruit into his mouth. Its his favorite part, by far, though the cheesecake is delicious in its own right. "It leaves me with free time of my own, allowing me to pamper myself as I see fit." Pink hues scan this man before him, his clothes, his glasses, how he's styled his hair. "Do you find me strange?"

He offers a light smile in response. “Of course. I think we’re all a little bit strange, it’s the only way we can stand out.” There’s as a pause as he takes on final drag of his cigarette and stamping it out in the ashtray. “Are you afraid of commitment?” KRISTOFFER KROWE

"Depends on what it is I would be committing to," he replies as he puts out his cigarette as well. "Some commitments are far scarier than others."
His hands fold, fingers interlacing with one another, and he rests his chin on them, tilting his pretty face ever so slightly. It causes his hair to shift, his earrings catching the light of the day. "Why? Do you have one to offer? By all means, fill me in."

He thinks of the djinn contracted to him, most are bloodthirsty predators always watching, always waiting for a chance. “None. I prefer the more ephemeral existences like the blossoming of a flower. A fleeting beauty. Long term can be messy, saddening and even maddening.” His master comes to mind, eyes heavy and sad. Looking into his cup of coffee he takes a long drink, finishing it all. “So you like to play with money? Where do you go when you’re feeling sad and seeking excitement?” KRISTOFFER KROWE

"Out. I buy new clothes, new soaps and perfumes, rouge and lipsticks. I like to spend time with people. Meet new faces..." His fingertips lightly circle along the outer rim of his coffee cup, his eyes lifting to look at the taller man's. "Revisit old faces.
"Sometimes I stay at home and share a bottle of wine with myself, fill the tub up with hot water and oil. A bottle of wine and a warm bath can be very exciting when planned properly."
He smiles.

Claude lights another cigarette as he listens. “That all sounds very modest for someone who plays with money. I guess I was just expecting something a bit more adventurous. Have you ever been outside of Paris?” KRISTOFFER KROWE

Suddenly, he feels like a little kid playing Adult. He frowns a little and glances to the side. "Well.. No, not really," he replies a bit sheepishly. "What would you consider a better way of playing with money?" His attention falls to the man's hands, his fingers, how he takes the cigarette to his lips and lights it. "Perhaps I'm doing it wrong and I need a little guidance."
Kris knows he's not all knowing nor perfect, even if he tries to be that way. He's open to learning, improving.

“I didn’t mean to upset, insult or question you. Just that I don’t run into many people, magicians, who are modest. Personally I think it’s great and from the looks of things you’re doing just fine.” He hated it really. Claude was reminded of his master. Hated that, hated this, he was full of it. “If it was me though,” he turns to look at the tower and takes a soft pull of his cigarette. “I’d go slummin’ with the locals, do drugs and just get wasted.” Eyes roll and he’s taking a long pull of his cigarette. He’s thought of this before, fantasized about it even. “You know, just to be a part of something you’re not. For the briefest of moments, like a forbidden love, must be exciting.” KRISTOFFER KROWE

"Why don't we?" He asks suddenly, looking up to meet the man's gaze. "Let's go slumming. Let's go get wasted and try that forbidden love."
A smirk appears on his face, waiting for the man to answer. "Come on, let's try something different."
It's an appealing idea, doing something so different from the normal high class cafes and perfectly clean streets, classy riversides and overly green trees.
"Come to the slums with me?"

The sudden interest, the question, it all makes Claude smile. For a moment his smile is genuine. Just for a moment he was happy. His eyes roll and he stamps out his cigarette in the ashtray. “You’re forgetting the most important part. What makes our,” he pauses. “What makes this so forbidden, so dangerous? Show me that and I’ll be willing to go anywhere with you.” Honestly, Claude's smirking, feeling quite smug at the moment. KRISTOFFER KROWE
