it was a trip inyoul had made only a hundred times, one of the few excursions away from the museum that he actually didn’t mind undertaking. there were only a handful of antique dealers inyoul trusted well enough to trust them to assess the authenticity of their donations — those he chose to personally deal with an even smaller list. lilith had been nothing but pleasant company since finding her as a part of his network, each trip often filled with tea and conversation. with a curious velvet box in hand with questionable origins, it was shaping up to be yet another such afternoon. making his way into the shop and humming thoughtfully at the chime announcing his arrival, the witch gave a curt wave and lifted the item he’d wanted the woman to see. ❝ don’t suppose you’ve a moment to spare for an old friend ? ❞

administrative duties meant spending what would have otherwise been a fine day for personal research trying to authenticate various artifacts acquired by the museum. the latest in its acquisitions had been what appeared to be various egyptian pieces — valuable and unique pieces but something inyoul himself very little about. a colleague, thankfully, knew of someone to reach out to — hence why inyoul was holding a piece of paper with an address written on it after various attempts at a phone conversation had failed. sure, his phone was antiquated but he’d never known it to be this damnably difficult to reach someone.
now that he’d arrived, however, he was beginning to have his doubts that this was the mr.kim he was supposed to be meeting with. inyoul had been picturing someone a little more scraggly, probably even someone with a sweater vest and a pair of glasses. not ... this. ❝ i, er ... i don’t suppose you would know where i could find a mr.kim ? i’m supposed to be meeting with him on behalf of the museum of history. ❞

⟶ forcing him to give up the afternoon that he’d intended to be spent researching the authenticity of a series of paintings in favour of looking into some ‘silly’ series of heists was a guaranteed way to put the witch in a foul mood. it was a matter that could have been left to virtually anyone else ( someone whose time was not nearly so valuable, went unsaid ), but regardless of his protests the witch found himself pulling his trench coat closed as he turned a corner and slipped into an alleyway. of all the modern inconveniences, the new means of conducting illegal activity was perhaps the most frustrating of all. of course, humans dabbling in white collar crime wasn’t his issue. such were matters for the police to handle. when those far from traditionally ‘mortal’ chose to partake in the elicit affairs, however ? that was his personal problem. such led him onto the chilly streets that afternoon, the frigid air so cold that his limbs felt like lead as he struggled to force them forward. he was there on a lead, rumours of a vampire conducting a series of heists that had earned enough attention to warrant concern. the last thing anyone needed was a human police force going after a vampire. the consequences on both sides could very well be dire ( though he’d place his bets on the vampire perhaps every time, until messy little hunters got involved in the matter at least ).
with only the briefest of descriptions to follow, inyoul slipped his way through a door that had seen far better days, its paint peeled and hues marred by years of weathering. he was welcomed by the small of incense as he made his way into a bar whose clientele near solely compromised the city’s supernatural community. while the man had been there countless times, tonight he wasn’t there for his usual rum and coke. rather, after nodding to the bartender he quickly scanned the room with his eyes before a tiny grin pulled to his lips. GOTCHA. plastering the best poker face he could manage on short notice, he approached the man he hoped was the ‘seo’ he was looking for. the swing of his hips was far too dramatic for one looking for a supposed criminal, but shame was nonexistent as the witch settled behind his target the male and tapped his shoulder lightly.
❛ you, my good sir, are a right pain in the ass to find. ❜
