[3rd silverware:] The raven

Sebastian's curse has been interesting however unnecessary, as being a demon he already can transform into a raven anytime, but on a much smaller scale. Being able to transform as a man-sized raven is still interesting and break the monotomy of his week. His life consists nothing but just going to work, taking care of his young Master, and at the end of the week, did his duties as a butler routinely.

After putting Ciel to bed, he wondered how long his own curse last? It doesn't feel weird to him. If anything, it was interesting.

It was only at night in the late evenings that he has some spare time for himself for his own thoughts. He flies around in different area of the cities, roosting and sitting on a the tree, enjoying his nightly flights. He isn't particulary hard to spot, considering, he's a 6'1'' tall bipedal raven, and he can be seen roosting on any given tree depending where you are, just watching you passing by late at night, and caw at you thoughtfully.

Liora hasn't quite settled on a home yet, and even if she had, it would be outdoors anyway. This "curse" has almost made her afraid of trees, whether they come to life themselves, or some other creature was roosting in it.

Even though she was supposed to be safer on higher ground, Liora crawled along the ground when she suddenly heard a cawing noise. The noise itself startled her, and she spun around with a shriek, but seeing the man-sized raven startled her even more. It wasn't a Harpy...it more resembled the Death Seekers in Sornieth. What was worse, Liora could feel something disturbing about it.

"Ahh...." she muttered, slowly backing away from the raven...

The large raven man, covered in pure black feathers from head to tail, his limbs are talons, his fingers are claws was sitting and roosting on one of the thicker branches of the tree. His beady, obsidian black eyes fixed his gaze on the petite dragons, with flecks of gold on her scales. His wings are closed, his posture is relaxed and laid-back.

He cawed again, opening his beak to speak, "Good evening. Don't be afraid. I'm just sitting here, relaxing after work."

"It talks...?"

Somehow Liora shouldn't have been this surprised, considering the Beastclans were able to speak, while the lesser beasts weren't. But what it said was even more strange.

"You...work? What kind of work...?"

"I work in a candy store making candy, and I bake pastries. I work for Funtom Corporation in Nova City. I don't always look like this. I think some people are under a curse."

He doesn't seem to be in any distress, he just looking at her curious. So he was once a man, before the curse happened.

"Oh, so...you, too..."

At least she relaxes a little, but still appears timid.

"So I guess you're supposed to be...a man?"

"I was a man before the curse, yes." He said with a shrug.

He can't smile because of his beak. But his tone denote some humor and amusement in the situation, "Still, I think this form is fitting. I liked it. I can fly around, if only for how long it will last. I think it was fun."

"Yes...flying is important for us dragons. I don't know how I'd live if I couldn't fly..."

"Well, you're flying around at night. Be careful and journey back home safely, even in flight." Offered the raven-man roosting on the tree.

The raven may see a girl appearing to be a storybook depiction of a demon, with bat-like wings large enough to support flight and black spiral horns protruding from her forehead. Whether Sebastian recognized her from their first encounter or not, the fact was that she was a teenage girl walking her dog... In the middle of the night.

Garden Park was always beautiful, and Adela soon seated herself on a bench with a sigh. The fact that her nightmares had become more frequent again caused many a sleepless night, though Ash was large enough to be a somewhat intimidating presence at least now. She ruffled his hair, smiling weakly for the dog before the raven's call startled her, causing her to jump a little.

"What...?" Having nearly asked 'whose there', Adela looked around only to spot the incredibly large black bird in the thick of branches and dying leaves in a tree nearby. It was hard to see, but she could still tell he was there. A sigh left Adela before she went back to Ash, shaking her head, "A raven... Goodness, I think I have become too fearful for my own good."

Sebastian is never a fan of dogs. He's a cat person and a cat lover down to his core. Still, it was a puppy, so he'll tolerate her company. Sebastian dangled his talons while sitting on the top of the thickest branch of the tree. He opened his beat to caw softly again.

"Good evening." He titled his bird like head as he sensed...something strange from the girl. But he thought her demon looks are pretty cosmetic in appearance only. "Sorry, I startled you. I was cursed as I was once a man." He said mildly, as he has no intention to bother her. He's just a big, over sized man raven.

Well, that got her tense again. She blinked, staring at the talking raven man (was his voice familiar? She couldn't quite tell yet) before letting out a sigh, "No, do not be. I am particularly wary at night, as I probably should be. That is no fault of yours, sir."

She gently scratches behind her dog's ears then, calming the dog into sitting and nuzzling into the touch. Even if a puppy, he's still a big dog -- surely enough to scare away any would-be ne'er do wells right?

"I take it you are enjoying the night air as well?"

Sebastian leaned over to squint and took a closer look. A girl with red hair...

"Oh, it's you. We met when I first arrived here. I forgotten your name, as I'm a very busy man. I'm Sebastian. I work at Funtom Corp."

He looks up to the sky, gazing at the moon. "I fare most well at night myself, but then again I tend work very long shifts from dawn to dusk."

Sebastian? The name did ring a bell, and she did often greet people when they first arrived, whether it was on purpose or not. Adela seemed a little surprised, and maybe a part of her was just the slightest bit offended that he forgot... But then, she helpfully remembered, she'd sort of forgotten him too.

"Adela. I suppose it is appropriate to say "good to see you again," even if you seem to be suffering from the same sort of curse as I am at the moment."

"Ah yes, Adela. It's fair and good to see you again." His feather ruffle, and he preens his wings with his beak. It's a...bird habit.

"Do you tend to walk your dog in the late evenings? Be careful. There tend to be criminals stalking late at night." The raven man warns. "The things I read in the newspapers."

The smile she gave was just a little sad somehow, and the red head sighed at the statement.

"I am aware of that... But it is also the most effective way to take my mind off of frequent nightmares. I take Ash with me because I am less likely to be approached with him at my side."

Ash? That's the dog name. Sebastian eyed the pup.

"Tibetan Mastiff. They are strong guard dogs, and can be territorial." Remarked Sebastian. "Forgive me, I'm not a dog person. I'm more in cats. But yes, once he grows big, he should always stay by your side."

"I plan for him to, though it was Smoker's idea to raise him as a guard dog."

She nodded, once again ruffling his hair. The dog seemed satisfied with the attention it was getting, closing its eyes and leaning into her touch once again.

"I cannot say I have ever owned a cat... Though, they can be helpful and wonderful pets as well. I might have to look into getting one, hopefully one that can get along with Sami and Ash as well."

There's a glint in his eye and a tone of amusement, "Ah yes, cats are wonderful, warm creatures. From the flick and swish of their tail, to their soft paw pads, to the warmth in their eyes, I would recommend a feline companion as a good addition to your household."

The raven man bird nodded, being pretty chill.

"It would be nice, and affording one would not be an issue... But, there is something else I would worry of."

A sigh left her and she shook her head, leaning back on the bench even if it ended up squishing her wings a little, "We -- the people I live with and myself -- we live in a garage, and unless the cat stayed upstairs all of the time it could get into some very dangerous spots. I would not wish that on a cat -- I think we would have to move into a house before considering it."
