Adam nodded, getting up. Things seemed to be rather heavy in the kitchen, so he made a quiet exit to meet Kassadin outside.

"Ah, good. You are packed and such? If you would lend me your things, I shall transport them beforehand, so as to keep you in better control when I take you over."
He cracked his knuckles, the purple energy of nether starting to prickle around him.

"Oh? Yes, let's go." he nodded, holding forth his suitcase.
(Since I'd rather preserve the tension of the contract proposal on the last page, just take us there outside the inn, okay?)

He took hold of the briefcase.
"One moment."
The dark-armored man stepped outside of the Inn, then returned, no longer holding the suitcase.
"Alright, your turn. Come along, Sir Adam."
(Hokay.)

Hemlock was about to take Gren's hand but frowned. "I can definitely not tell Vee about Master Malachai! But...Mistress can command me. If-if she asks about the man in white, I have to speak! Until then, lips are zipped! That okay?"

He hummed, thinking. Malachai hadn't mentioned Orrin. Would Kasdeya even think to ask? Perhaps, but even so, Charlotte was still unknown to Hemlock or his mistress, and therefore still a trump. That is, of course, if they needed her at all, if he could strike the right deal.
Smiling honestly, Gren, nodded. "I accept those terms."

"Yaaaay! Yayayayayayayayayayayayayay!" Hemlock danced around half the kitchen before calming down, sitting on the counter and kicking his legs. "I can see why people like it here...you're nice! You give me ice cream, and my very first bargain! Well, with a human."

"You're new at this, aren't you?" chuckled Gren, getting back to his ice cream. "Aren't we supposed to shake hands? I've never made a deal with a demon before, or an imp."

"Depends on the demon," Hemlock answered, holding out his bowl for more ice cream. "Some shake hands, some sign special parchment in blood...it can get pretty crazy. Verbal oaths work well, too. If both sides accept the terms, it happens. The rest is just formality and personal style. Since I don't have one yet, I never really thought about it. If ya wanna shake, we can! I'm really toasty!"

"No kidding?" he said, taking the bowl and putting in vanilla, handing it back to the demon. "Well, I'd like a handshake...feels sealed to me then."

"Oaths are a big deal with a lot of us supernatural folks; as long as their kept, it doesn't matter how they're sealed," Hemlock said, setting the vanilla aside and enthusiastically shaking Gren's hand. "There! Ignorance for ice cream! I'm gonna try all the flavors I can!"

He laughed, shaking Hemlock's warm little hand. "Well, really, there's as many flavors of ice cream as there is things to eat, if you want to get right down to..." he paused, looking to the oven. "I wonder...if soulfruit's on that list."

Hemlock smiled at the thought of any food made into ice cream before he paused, following Gren's gaze to the oven. "Soulfruit ice cream? That's...that's crazy! I want some!"

"I wonder if I can do that..." he hummed, looking into the manual, quite serious.
Malachai, meanwhile, poked his head out of Felix's room and followed the scent of fresh soulfruits and sulfur into the kitchen. "What's going on in here?"

"I made my first bargain!" Hemlock declared with pride, hopping up onto the counter and bowing to Malachai. "And he's trying to make soulfruit ice cream!"
Sosol pulled the hood off the Ghost Cloak, yawning as he held Azana close. "Well, we're home..."
Azana, meanwhile, held her head as a tingle surged up her spine. "I'll...I'll meet you up there. Bara's riled up about something."
"Don't take too long," he said in concern, kissing her and feeling a bit of a static jolt. "I'd prefer to keep you rested." He left for upstairs, looking over his shoulder once or twice.
Azana, meanwhile, closed her eyes. A demon in the Inn? Yeah, she knew that. Two? Who else would be here? She walked slowly toward the kitchen, leaning against the door frame as she spied Gren, Malachai, and the imp. "Give me an explanation before I get a splitting headache, please. I'm sure there's a good one, and that she's overreacting."
