Best to keep a calm facade. Everard did have that unsettling... aura about him. It wasn't hard to detect it, he liked it, he revelled in it. So. Yes. He was still smiling at her with his emotionless eyes but an impeccable face that went well with his clean and pressed suit. "I see." She shouldn't have said 'the first time'. Everard liked to play with first-timers.
He moved slowly closer to the woman, hoping the shopkeeper would wait a while. Maybe they were dead if luck served him. "Please allow me to assist you in your... quest." Did people still say 'quest'? He sometimes mixed up contexts in his travels. "I'm... a regular." He stopped moving, still giving her the personal space she needed to feel safe, but his smile was getting eerier. |
