Holiday Parties: Hell Edition

Live smiled at the boys words. She hated Christmas above just about any holiday but found herself enjoying Klaus perspective on it. To her it had always just been a bullshit time for family and caring (which didn't exist in the young girls life) however, she could get down to celebrating some material possessions.

She chuckled a bit. She could only imagine the reaction that would ensue from the more religious side of the holiday showing up at this party. She had a pretty good feeling though that no one from the "other side" would be showing up here tonight.

The Walker smirked a bit, "Well I'm always down for an excuse to drink." She couldn't say much about the partying though. She hadn't really been terribly popular, or even liked for that matter, back in Georgia so getting invited to parties never really happened. She guess this was probably the perfect place to really learn what a party was, surrounded by the only creatures who had ever understood her.

She took another big chug from her drink, finishing up the cup. She filled it again and took a sip. Those two cups would take a few minutes to kick in so she would let herself settle into her drunk while slowly sipping on this third cup.

"I'm pretty good at taking care of myself, but uh, thanks." Her monotone voice sounded awkward as she said the words. If there was one thing Live sucked at, it was social norms like please and thank you.

"So uh, if it's alright for me to ask," She paused for a moment, her eyes drifting down to her cup, "Who and uh, what exactly are you?" No offense was meant by the question and hopefully none would be taken. She was simply curious.

This type of person certainly wasn't new to Klaus. Never hiding the need to get as drunk as possible, as fast as possible. It was both entertaining and often pretty vulnerable. He could've leered, but he didn't.

"Sure. I won't push it, doll, I'm not a chaperone." He snorted at the very concept. Honestly, he was better at encouraging traditionally 'bad' choices than preventing them.

"Just wouldn't want a cute girl to end up passed out in a dirty gutter somewhere, would I? Nor kicked out of her first big demon party. Hell forbid." He tucked his sunglasses in a coat pocket purely to offer a wink, then to giggle a bit at himself. Ridiculous.

He hummed at her question. "Yeah, s'alright. You got my first name. I'm a greed demon, babe, son of Mammon an' all that jazz. Between you and me, the best dad of the princes, and the best sin. Maaaybe I'm a little biased, but hey, we have gift bags at our parties! Greed for life."

He gave a shark grin. "Full name's Klaus Rosales. If you don't already recognize that from somewhere, well, maybe that's better. Ignorance is bliss, or something? Kinda shitty saying if you ask me, but whatever."

Kasai yipped happily, belly full of tasty things and her hair well mussed from all the pettings. The cheerfull little creature found her way into a room full of smaller people. Would small people- oohh a ball!!

Kasai darted off after the little rolling thing and pounced on it, rolling head over tail until she rolled to a stop at the feet of a little person with pretty hair. They were getting a lot of attention and they had more food in their hand! She picked the ball up in her mouth and rested her paws on the person's leg, whining to get attention. Even if the little person wouldn't share food with her maybe she would toss the ball.

Live chuckled. "Sounds like we are in agreement then." Last thing she wanted was some stranger trying to take care of her like a baby. Live hated being babied.

She gave the man a bit of a look, "I've never ended up in a gutter and I don't think I ever will. I'm pretty good at handling myself." She was a bit defensive in saying that but it couldn't be helped. She just wanted it to be clear that she was a big girl who could take care of herself. Or at least so she wanted everyone to think.

Greed demon. Hadn't met one of those before. Especially one who was apparently a son of a prince. Most demons she had come in contact with before were uh, pretty low ranking. Usually haunting some object or person or just passing through her area to cause some kind of ruckus. Most of those were also primarily only spiritual creatures having a very slim connection to the physical world. Live basically worked as a bridge between their very spiritual world and the earths more physical one. She had found that she had to be very careful when doing such though as sometimes demons would try to stay in the physical world and while it never bothered Live, some of her neighbors hadn't been such fans of it...

Live's mind snapped back from the thoughts as Klaus asked her a question.

"Oh uh, well yeah. I don't see much point in ignorance. It's basically the same as being blind. Besides, bliss is overrated and ultimately impossible. It's all just a mental construct. Take the knowledge and fuck the ignorance..." She gave a shrug and took another swig from her cup.
