Levina's eyes glowed for a moment as she cut them back over at Alt. She had a bad habit of wearing her thoughts on her sleeve. It was part of why she had been abused and taken advantage of most of her life. She did a much better job of getting herself back under control this time.

"And if that was true? Not like you could help me."

Levina rolled her eyes and continued looking back around.

"This place is full of people claiming they can give others what they want. Pleasure. Happiness. Company. But none of it is real. "

"You're right, I can't help you with that at all. I have never done romance before so I certainly wouldn't even know where to start if I could help you." Altizica carefully munched on some more bones as they thought about it.

"You are right about that much at least. That's why I come to places like this, it's entertaining to watch people who think they can get what they really want from this place. They never end up getting that joy permanently, it was simply never meant to happen."

"Never meant to happen..."

She repeated the words to herself and let them fade off. No. That didn't apply to her. She just needed to be better. She HAD to be better. It was how her life went. Everything that happened was her fault because she wasn't good enough. She wasn't PERFECT.

"It's because they aren't perfect. None of them. But me on the other hand?"

She gave an almost maniacal chuckle and squeal.

"I'm as close as you can get. Wouldn't you agree?"

Her electric blue eyes looked up at Alt with an utter puppy dog look. She didn't need or want his approval. It was just who she was with her mood swings that most people didn't know how to handle or thought was rude. Most people. Not Mathos. No, he knew how to deal with her.

Altizica looked hard at Levina, he was thinking. This seemed different than her usual self, this was much more off. Alt may have unearthed some deep seeded issues by saying what he said, he just wasn't that sure. Altizica thought very carefully about what to say.

"For me to say you were the closest to perfection would mean I know what your perfection meant. You likely seek a different type of perfection than what I believe is complete perfection, something I can not describe to you as there is no words in mortal tongue that properly convey what it is." Altizica thoughtfully munched on some bones.

Levina scoffed and rolled her eyes when he was done. She didn't know what she was expecting him to say, but what he did say wasn't it. Surely there was a perfection that everyone could see. It was why she went through so much pain in her life, in the pursuit of perfection.​
"I'll take that as a yes Mr. Devourer of Worlds."​
She threw one of the titles he had used back at him with a bit of sarcasm in her voice. Electric blue eyes cut to the side and over to a group where a gentleman had a young lady perched in his lap. Their laughing had been what caught her attention.​
"Disgusting."​

"You can take that however you want Ms. Levina." Altizica shoved more bones into his gaping maw and looked over to what Levina was looking at. He just seemed to be quiet, chewing on bones and carefully watching them. He looked at Levina and then back to the two Levina was staring at.

".....How much do you think she's being paid? My answer is not enough." Alt laughed a little and chewed on some bones.

"Too much."​
Her voice had a bit of an edge to it. A hand came up and pointed towards the couple as if she was pointing to something specific about them.​
"His left hand. He's got a ring. She doesn't. She's being paid to satisfy the lust of a spoken for man."​
She twisted her lips in disgust and turned back to her drink. Twirling it lightly to keep it mixed, she took another sip before speaking again.​
"She should be lucky to be given his attention, yet he's having to pay for it."​
It was obvious that her morals and ethics weren't all there and lined up with society. Part of the reason she butted heads with so many people.​

Altizica saw the ring and gave a little smile "Ah yes a married man, that concept of marriage is interesting as we Eldritch do not see it as something we need. If two eldritch get together it is very temporary in most cases a-" Altizica choked on his words as Levina said the second part of what she had to say. He looked at her, a wild smile on his face "By Azathoth Levina you actually caught me off guard with that." Altizica regained his composure and laughed a little. "Are you serious saying that?"

Levina looked over at Alt with as confused look. Of course she was serious. Her concept of self worth was completely based on how useful she was to someone, one particular person. So she absolutely was serious in her statement.​
"Of course I am. The man obviously has qualities which make him an ideal mate or he wouldn't be married. His needs are not being made as they should be. He should not need to pay to have that lust satiated. The fact that he is shows truly how disgusting they both are."​

Altizica laughed a little "Well I won't judge your beliefs then. I could frankly care less, it was just very strange to hear that when compared with the ideas of what everyone believes in. At least normally....Eldritch don't really do love. The most that will happen is that two will get together briefly to have a child, but even that isn't really needed. Some of us and asexually reproduce. This island is of course a big exception to all of these rules." Altizica looked at Levina for a second "Levina, you are human yes? It is surprising to hear such a view from a human of all species."
