he sat behind a sleek glass-and-chrome desk, the day’s pale light settling over the office like a veil of spun gossamer. there was a window wall behind him; anybody walking in through the door opposite would find his slim figure curiously silhouetted. the room provided too much space above his head to be of any practical use. tucked into a corner was a potted fern, which sat prim and well-behaved, just as jeremiah liked. ballabar vanished--jeremiah was faintly reminded of a candle’s dying breath--as he took a brief pardon from the human world, leaving jeremiah to ponder the news he had brought him. the door opened just as he left. jeremiah looked up, eyelids fluttering. royce sasaki

Royce was always itching to bother someone, especially since she couldn't bother Ishtar this morning. Her djinn was out doing something - what, well, she was better off not knowing. The other djinn under her contract were doing who knows what, who knows where. Royce was never the best at keeping track of them, in the first place. They sort of came and went as they pleased, or whenever she summoned them.
But today she hadn't thought of informing herself with the most recent of news. She probably should have.
A devious plan came upon her head. Jeremiah Silos, resident asshole of the council, seemed to be already there. Royce, also a resident asshole of the council, decided to stroll into his office and out-asshole him.
"What's the old guy up to today, hmm?"

“royce,” he said, soft and icy-polite. he steepled his fingers. “to what do i owe this pleasure?” a whisper of a curl fell upon his cheek; he moved it out of his eyes. jeremiah didn’t have time for this woman’s japes or cat’s prowl or insolence. he swung one leg over the other. they were sheathed in gleaming white boots, white like the rest of him. royce sasaki

Jeremiah reeked of pretension. From this white hair to his white little feet that Royce couldn't help feeling slightly repulsed. He was everything that Royce was not. So clinical, clean, lawful. Don't get her wrong - she respected him, and they were both pretty awful people. And she figured that everyone in the council was pretentious. But he was onto a new level.
"Why, I only came to ask how you are and what you were doing." She thinly veiled innocence, because the both of them knew that she was definitely not here for that. She was bored, and Jeremiah her new play thing until he got boring.

he looked at her for a brief moment, head cocked like some curious bird. then he unfolded and rose from his chair, trailing a hand over the desk as he walked around it. “you’ve unfortunate timing, i’m afraid. normally i would happily welcome your presence but, as it turns out,” he said, closing the distance between them, “we will be needed in the council room shortly.” he said nothing more; passing her neatly, he made his way towards the door behind her. a djinn had appeared and was holding it open for him, whose dress boots and slim tie were white like the hair that fell upon jeremiah’s shoulders. he did not appear to care whether royce followed him or not. royce sasaki idk this is getting confusing with the council thread so im just gonna make it so that they talk about it walking to the meeting

What a disappointment. Council meetings were never much fun, at least when they talked of the mundane. Yet today Royce had not heard of a meeting. Probably because she had, for one, arrived late to work and stopped by Jeremiah's office before her own. No problem, she'd just go along with him.
"You seem to know more than you let on. Won't you let little old me know? We've got some time before reaching the room."

jeremiah continued to walk in silence with royce at his heels. it was beginning to sound as though he hadn’t a mind to inform his fellow council member when he said, in the short, clinical tones that one passes on hair care tips, “there has been a strigoi attack. a band attacked the citizens. eleven rogues in total. dans le quartier de la bastille.”filth, he thought. royce sasaki

Royce had about given up trying to pry when Jeremiah spoke once again.
Asshole, withholding the information for much longer than he needed to. For the grotesque words that came out of his mouth, he was as cold and uncaring as ever. It really fit him, she thought to herself. Although she found herself in glee of all this chaos. What a glorious day.
"Oh. Must be horrible. How many are gone?"

the pair rounded a corner, scattering a band of fox-faced men as jeremiah glided through. “we don’t know,” he said. his voice was a whisker above a whisper, and he seemed to only get quieter. eventually, his words would dry up, and royce would no longer be able to draw from the well. his quiescence, however, was not to be mistaken for grief. jeremiah never took well to being in the dark. royce sasaki

as they neared the council room, royce wondered - that was what they were going to be talking about, right? the attack. and yet it seemed to be kept a little hush hush. after all, it had just happened. good to be on top of things, even if the meeting was last minute.
"so i guess that explains the impromptu meeting."
