Summary
"Have you now?"
The question bears all the dangers of an overly ornate dinner knife, a blunted piece of silver politely held up against the light while the real threat lurks in the background in the form of several armed guards, a hound or two, and the knowledge that bodies become unrecognizable by the time they're an unpleasant surprise caught in a fishing net in tangling against the first rays of dawn.

Summary
Adler echoes each syllable, lips parting to reveal surprisingly dainty fangs, bloodless tongue darting out to touch his lip as he slowly slides off leather gloves, fingers flexing as he extends a wrist before running a neat nail along it, red beading along the path like pomegranate seeds.
