"Who's idea was it to set a RIOT on the Sidhe lord's mortal house? And made big pouty face at me because 'they were about to get away it'?"

"I'm not saying you're innocent of that, I'm saying we're arguing about it in the street when we have a -safe- house to go to!"

"Oh poop. Fine... let's go"

He -does- glance at the house in question.

Looks empty. Mm not too McMansion, has some balance to it

.... and he glances at Callidora.

"Just saying, it might be fun" A smile "Besides, when your breath settles you'll start steepling your fingers and gloating"

"You haven't had sufficient fun tonight?"

"I thought that was your kind of fun? " CC says "But yes, I suppose I enjoyed it as well"

A sigh, or a long gasp. "You want to go to that house?"

"More and more as we stand here"

"Mph. Fine." He agrees with little grace, but takes her hand. "For the record, I never found that sort of thing -fun-. It was an obligation to free those under tyranny. Yes, it filled me with a warm glow of satisfaction, but....."

"But?" She says walking with him

"But it was never so frivolous as 'fun.' Hmph."

"Oh fine. You're a grump's grump, a rebel with a sneer. The Mastermind most Stoic" She kisses him on the forehead "And adorable"

(And sweaty) He walks her up to the house. "Standard B&E or something more magical?"

"Well, we did get a lot of glamour from that riot... that's one area we're not hurting"

"Portal Passage, then?"

"Yes. to the side" SHe moves to a wall

He trots after her and, flush with Glamour, smoothes his hands across the wall surface, doodling a design on it and then opening a passage through. He bows to her and invites her inside.

"Apres vous."

"Merci" She slips in

He slips in right behind her, stopping as soon as he's on the other side to take stock. "Alarm system." he warns her "Motion sensors perhaps."

"Oh that's no trouble" She says "But I don't think .. " She looks about "I think it's just the doors"

Eyebrow. "What makes you say that?" Taking stock on his own.

"Because like yhou I study security some and there's a thingee on the door to the back yard"

"Camera ovder there though"

She points

"I admit I'm better with people than with things. Do you have the Art to defeat them?"

"No, but we can avoid it.. this way" She says "Then another portal passage in"

"Mmph." He follows her directions and casts the bunk while infusing Glamour to open the portal.

And through they go.

This house is.. tasteful. No McMansion at all even on the interior

William sniffs the air suspiciously. That, or he's catching a summer cold.

"Are you grumbling about class now? You'd be upset if it was 70s style shag rugs"

"I would be, yes. I was smelling for elf. Just in case."

"Ken for glamour instead... it's possible this is a dreamer's home or yes, yes maybe a kithain..let's hope not elf"

"Mmph." But Ken he does.

There is glamour...

"There -is- something here, I knew it...." muttered. He tries to find the source discretely.

"Well, it's empty so surely..." They enter into a gallery "oh my"

There are statues, beautiful, perfect and showing passion.

Some quite risque

"These are.... quite good."

"They are" She looks at one woman lifted by her lover who takes her standing. Her form is elegant, his powerful, the musculature on both so tangible you expect the stone to be warm. "Look at the attention to anatomy" She says "YEs, it's also sexy as hell but .. the accuracy and passion is WHY it's sexy"

Another corner has two women lounging playfighting over a shared bundle of grapes.

His eyes narrow and he Kens the statues more closely.

They are not transformed flesh ala medusa. But some dreamer inspired or changeling finding perfect union between fae and mortal natures

"This could be dross, though I'd cry if I used it as such" She says

"I am moved to wonder about the owner of this house....."
