Deal 001 ❖ [Video]

[intogold]

[Well well, this little communicator was invaluable. Oh yes, people shared and shared and shared. And Rumpelstiltskin listened. He's only just arrived, but he that hasn't stopped him from paying attention, from learning how this little thing worked. Now though, he flips his own on to share a bit himself. The video shows his strange smiling face, but before he manages to speak, he laughs, all at once, a sudden explosion of a trilling little sound.] This is terribly interesting, isn't it?

Tell me, has anyone else noticed... [A little pause here and he wiggles his fingers.] familiar faces that aren't actually familiar here? I just don't know what to make of it. [This was a lie. He'd already decided to use it to his advantage. Oh there were ways to do this; he was sure of it. He was still working it through though.]

But since we're speaking of familiarity, let me introduce myself. [A toothy grin that was largely not as reassuring as he might have hoped.] My name is Rumpelstiltskin and I am... a purveyor of necessities and fondest desires and useful magics. If you find yourself in need of the unfindable, well, I humbly... [He ducks his head in a bit of a mock bow, undermined a bit by another laugh.] offer my services. Of course, bear in mind, all things, especially magical, have their price. One can't do business for nothing!

If all else fails, [ He trails off into another small chuckle. ] I think this is a lesson that we're both quite familiar with. ...a shame that it's often forgotten. Some people need to be reminded...

[intogold]

People forget very easily, lessons that aren't learned with quite enough impact. It is a pity, really. [A light clucking of his tongue.] A downright shame.

[sinfullysublime]

I think that something ought to be done about it, because as you said, downright shame.

[intogold]

Something should! [An excited little singsong.] You sound like a man with something in mind.

[sinfullysublime]

Mm, [ Sets a finger to his lips as he smirks. ] perhaps. Interested?

[intogold]

Oh yes. [He lifts his hands and wiggles his fingers together a bit excitedly.] Thoroughly intrigued.

[sinfullysublime]

[ He tilts his head back as a shadow is cast over his eyes. Smirks, teeth gleaming as he speaks, ] Let's meet then, ...and discuss this. What do you say?

[intogold]

[Rumpelstiltskin's smile widens significantly at that.] That sounds more than agreeable, deary. When shall we meet?

[sinfullysublime]

[ He sets a finger to his lips. ] Mm, ...the sooner the better, I'd say.

[intogold]

Again I find myself in agreement. [Another flash of teeth, in amusement.] I'm afraid that I'm not really in any position to entertain, just arriving and all.

[sinfullysublime]

Mm. [ Smirks from behind his finger. ] Not to worry, my dear Friend, I own a Bakery in Town. We'll meet there and discuss matters over tea, ...if you're interested.

[ He sends a small file giving Rumpelstiltskin directions to the Bakery located in Traverse Town. ]

[intogold]

Well well! I'm not one to pass up a nice cup of tea. [The directions do seem easy enough.]

Seems I'll be bale to find you just fine. When would you like to see me?

[sinfullysublime]

Excellent. [ ...and what would tea be without a snack. He'll start making the preparations soon. ] I am free most all day. When is best for you?

[intogold]

My agenda is rather void of anything at the moment. I'll drop by in an hour or so? [A bit of exploring this Traverse Town first. Then, the bakery. And the most sinister of tea parties.]

[sinfullysublime]

Sure. I will see you then. [ ...and with that he shuts off the feed and goes to prepare everything for his soon to be guest.

[intogold]

[Rumpelstiltskin will be there just when he said. He's quite punctual, actually. Truthfully though, Sebastian interests him enough that he sees no reason to keep him waiting. So it's not long before there's a knock at the door to the shop.]




((ooc: up for continuing into action? 8D we can handwave if you'd rather, of course!))

[sinfullysublime]

[ Hearing the knock at the door Sebastian stops by the table to set the tray he's prepared down. He steals a peek a the time, finding the other to be right on time. Smirks, heading for the door and bowing as he finds it to be Rumpelstiltskin. ] It's a pleasure, Mister Rumpelstiltskin, to get the opportunity to meet you in person.

( ooc | I am cool with that! and I was just about to try to get into contact with you on aim or something to discuss shenanigans. Like, what you'd had in mind for them or what I'd had in mine. Or something. x3~ )

[intogold]

[Rumpelstiltskin inclines his head just a little, looking for all the world like he may be on the verge of doing a jig. He doesn't though. Instead he simply smiles, that wide, vaguely dangerous smile.] Oh nono, the pleasure is mine.


((ooc: oh man let's talk shenanigans! 8D I'm tangledgraces on AIM and ought to actually be on AIM for the rest of the evening. :) ))

[sinfullysublime]

[ My. It's so refreshing to see another so well mannered and polite. Smiling, Sebastian motions to the table. ] What perfect timing you have, I've just finished preparing the tea.

[intogold]

Wonderful. I do try to be punctual. [He peers around curiously.] So you've set yourself up a place here, hmm?

[sinfullysublime]

[ Sebastian returns to the table and pours them each some tea as he allows his guest some time to look around. ] I had to. I need to support both myself and my Master. ...and having a personal base of operations does have it's perks. [ Sneers, lips curling into the most sinister of smirks. ]

[intogold]

[A bit of a nod at that as he glances around. His hands settle on his hips. Hmm. Very well kept little spot, isn't it? So I see. I can imagine it would, yes. [A giddy little laugh. Perks is it? He can see that.]

Have you been in this place long?

[sinfullysublime]

[ He takes a seat and picks up his tea. ] I have been here a few months. [ Sips, watching Rumpel from over the rim. ]

[intogold]

I see. [He reaches for his tea, taking a sip, thoughtful.] Do do you believe the rhetoric? About darkness consuming worlds?

It strikes me as suspicious. My heart is not one I'd expect to be saved from darkness.

[sinfullysublime]

[ He takes another sip. ] I... do and I don't. It's come here, the darkness, so I have seen it first hand. I have also seen an entire world liberated from it. However, [ Sets his cup down. ] my Master's been here far longer than I and he'd believed that our world had been consumed. It hadn't been, though, ...as I had been living there with the other servants. We were searching for him as he'd just disappeared... I am not sure what's going on here and, none too surprisingly, nobody else does either.
