Roslin laughed brightly with a scandalous "Ohohoho" thrown in for good measure, as she prepared the requested beverages. "Ya'll flatter me too kindly! If ya have any down time, I'll be more than happy to cook something up for ya!"

"I appreciate it," Devon smiled brightly as he accepted the drinks and waved to the tentacle woman before moving on down to the condiments. After grabbing a couple things of butter and syrup, he went on over to Gen's table. "Hey," he greeted. "Mind if I sit here?"

Over the lip of a teacup, Gen eyed him sourly for a moment and then, ever-so-elegantly cleared her throat to behave in a more refined manner, "Salutations Plum Fairy." She waved to the free spots in a manner that was faintly reminiscent of the way Queen Ivan did it, "Yes, do have a seat."
From under her too-big hat, she rubbed something out of the corner of her wine-red and clearly tired eyes. When she was done, she had a nice smile plastered on her face, "How were your lodgings, comfortable?"

"Surprisingly," he agreed as he sat down. "I never imagined a toadstool could be so soft, or maybe I was just that tired." He set his tray down and looked across at her. "Speaking of which, you look exhausted. Are you okay?"

She chuckled at Devon, "I'm glad," as she held up the porcelain to her lips she ruefully continued, "Nothing Earl Grey and caffeine can't cure," after an appropriate sip she set it down.
"Though in all seriousness, what is your name? I must say Queen Ivan's god awful nick-names have struck you the wrong side by the looks of it."

"Devon Jackson," he answered, offering her his petite little hand to shake. The fact that he looked nothing like a Devon and distinctly more like a Mina likely didn't go unnoticed by the literary expert. "And for the record, I'm sure you came up with some wonderful designs and I'd be happy to wear them."

As Devon spoke she tapped her teapot so that it would pour itself into her waiting cup, "I'm sure there's a story behind that name and how you are now."
At having enough tea, she shooed the pot away to its resting spot and carefully blew at the wafting steam, "There's no need to be that courteous Mr. Jackson, I'm sure just being here is hard enough on you. Sad to say, even if Queen Ivan found out about your identity, it wouldn't make much difference of his intentions."

"Yeah, I gathered as much," Devon agreed with a nod. "Is he just the world's biggest perv, or what? What's the deal?"

The Word Witch delicately placed a hand over her mouth as she laughed her ass off. When she was done she had a devilish smirk on her too-perfectly painted lips, "I'm not permitted to reveal too much, but I can leave behind bread crumbs."
She leaned in close to whisper to Devon, "That smug bastard is too good at sending the wrong messages and you guys are just eating it right up."
The red-head, reclined back into her seat as she gingerly nursed her tea, "But feel free to ask any other questions about our good Queen. I'll answer them as best I can according to the rules, hmhmhm~"

"I see ..." the boy answered cautiously, turning that over in his head. The first question he asked seemed the obvious one as he cut a bite out of his eggs. "Why are there rules? Has he set this up as some sort of game for him to play?"

She winked at him, an action which shifted her massive hat to the side, "The rules are pretty simple, 'no spoilers, no cheating.' It's only a game because he made it one, he loves making games out of everything, he's that kind of depraved man. But I guess you could see that because he is the way he is, he caught my attention, for what precisely though, I can't reveal."
She hummed to herself and looked up towards the ceiling which had, since last night had certainly changed, there was no longer a painting there but glass that the sun shined through, "If you were a bit more meta you'd probably be able to figure this problem out, but it'd probably end up breaking things, and Queen Ivan wouldn't be very pleased about it. He may not seem it, but he does have respect for certain things."

He arched an eyebrow around sipping at his glass of juice. "Like what?"

The question earned an enigmatic chuckle, "What do you think a man who isn't afraid of his own mortality respects?"

The boy's gaze flattened in confusion. "The gods? Or is this a trick question?"

Her face contorted into a very ungraceful explosion of laughter, she literally hit the table with an open palm and even her demonic hat seemed to join in the chorus of chortles, "Oh WORD no! I wouldn't fault you for thinking that!"
