WHO: Ladd and Angelica.
WHERE: A small, fancy restaurant somewhere in the City.
WHEN: Saturday evening.
WARNINGS: Discussion of gore and extreme physical violence is highly likely.
SUMMARY: Ladd and Angelica meet at a restaurant and decide to discuss their respective villainous portfolios.
FORMAT: Quick to start, whatever afterwards!
[Ladd has eaten at a lot of restaurants since he came here. He always appreciated the atmosphere, the coming and going of waiters that would do nearly anything to get a generous tip from the man in the expensive suit. It helped, obviously, that these restaurants served meals not prepared in a microwave, which was the extent of Ladd's own cooking skills.
The restaurant he's currently at was one he had never been to before. The menu was pretty generic, serving all matters of food from across Europe, but he had through the grapevine that the chef was a culinary mastermind. He's sitting on his own, of course, glancing over the menu and waiting for a waiter to bustle over. He hasn't even ordered the drinks yet, and he's starting to consider threatening a waiter if someone doesn't come over to his table soon.]

Ah, you're a real cruel woman, you know that? All cuts and sharp edges. I'm surprised I didn't get a papercut when I shook that hand of yours!
[The waiter begins to mumble something about testing the wine as he pours, but Ladd just flicks his hand up to make clear that he really doesn't care. The waiter continues his pouring.]
See, I'm much more of an hard impact sort of guy. I'm a big fan of boxing, really. It's a shame that some of these modern day guys just don't get the whole gentlemanly part, but they still throw a punch just as well as they used to. A lot less eye gouging though!

I'm afraid I lack the physical prowess to kill someone that way. [ She's a tall woman, that's true, but thin in the arms and legs. ] If someone must be killed by brute force and not finesse, my preference is to have another do it for me.
[ Another slow smile. ] Not that I can't appreciate it, of course. I don't mind watching.

[The wine is poured, and Ladd takes a swig of it without a hint of manners.]
I should really start charging for that sort of thing though. Maybe I can set up one of these website things! That'll draw in a crowd.

[ Angelica, on the other hand, never seems to eat or drink much of anything-- despite whatever she might have said. She just idly runs her finger around the rim of the glass, occasionally tapping it lightly to see the water tremble and ripple. ]
I'm sure you could make a fine profit. Human beings are inevitably drawn by violence and horror. A part of them enjoys being scared.

[Ladd's gaze floats over to her hands now, watching as they moved so delicately.]
And speaking of that violence and horror thing, ain't that the reason you came over here? Unless you want to make your next test subject, there really ain't much else I can do that doesn't involve a lot of destruction.
