["We'll have to arrange a visit," Freya comments, before taking a breath. "But we'll have to talk more in the morning. I'm exhausted." Because she's still human and needs her sleep.

Kieran smiles and waves as she goes.]

Nice meeting you.

[witchaffinity]

( "And you. Is a ... welcome to the family in order?" Klaus asks, predominantly mocking his brother. It takes months for some and never for others for that to be offered. )

Goodnight, Niklaus.

( "See you in the morning." Elijah bids adieu, leading Bela past Kol, but not before taking the bottle he'd grabbed and refilling both of their glasses.

He also takes the bottle with him. Baller in a suit right here. )

[Cami will also lead Klaus away, while Kieran shifts on the couch, sliding her legs into Kol's lap once they're alone. She rests her elbow on the back of the couch as she faces him.]

How was your witch visit?

[witchaffinity]

My brother found all kinds of dark trinkets courtesy of the hunters. Now, the witches of the French quarter have a mind-altering arsenal.

( So. Interesting! )

[transientem]

[Very interesting.]

Fun, fun, fun. I take it nothing worth sneaking out of their collection for our own purposes?

[witchaffinity]

Not at this juncture.

( But, a few of them could come in handy if they need to manipulate the right person. )

Any symptoms today?

[transientem]

[She shakes her head. Today was a good day, even if the contents of it weren't.]

A little tired, but it's been a long day.

[witchaffinity]

Then we should get you up and some rest. We can attack the day tomorrow and witness my siblings not knowing how to be themselves around you.

( He's exaggerating, of course, as they do about each other and always have. )

[transientem]

Sounds delightful.

[She flashes him a smile.]

I meant what I said though. If you need me to lean on the horn, I will.

[witchaffinity]

Better to pump our brakes until we have a better of idea of who all will be settling. Elijah returning home is the news of the moment, better we keep the lower profile.

( He leans in and kisses her forehead. )

New Orleans might need to be exactly where we need to be.

[transientem]

Works for me.

[She'll follow his lead, it's his family. She looks up with a smile, before sliding her legs away so he can move.]

You said something about bed?

[witchaffinity]

Did I?

( His impish grin persists as he stands and pulls his girlfriend to his feet. There is only minimal PDA in the sitting room as he leads her up the stairs to a room that bears some horrifying memories but not for that evening! )
