Arthur meets Niamh

( It's not like he knew what he was doing, always hanging around the Society and peeking through windows to catch glimpses of the work done within. He'd seen crazy things - monsters, walls that changed at every available moment, and one time there was a rather loud gunshot sound - there, and it amazed him.

''One day someone left the door ajar, however, and, with a gaze glowing with curiosity and excitement, he sticks his head in the doorway, himself following after. And, of course, he didn't realize how rude and probably illegal it was.'' )

Hello? Anyone in here?

( His attention is quickly captured by the Leviathan overhead. ) Ooooo...

Starry Eyed:

''Footsteps? Who. Heavy. Unsure. Not anyone familiar. What? Did some homeless man wander into the buildin'?'' *Niamh peaked through an intricate mess of gears and had a good look at the man* huh close enough I suppose. *She moved from beneath the floor and a few paces ahead of the man, below a loose tile and POP* " 'ELLO THERE STRANGA"

Arthur:

( The man lets out a yelp, primarily due to his surprise. This is promptly shadowed by awe. ) How'd you get down there?

Starry Eyed:

* Niamh face spread wide in a devilish smile* "Would ya like to see?"

Arthur:

( He grins. ) Sure!

Starry Eyed:

* She offered a dust and grease covered hand (and trust me you do not want to see the other)* "The name's Niamh and you are?"

Arthur:

Arthur! ( He takes the hand, his own fingertips completely black...though not stained, by any means. )

Starry Eyed:

* A flash of a pain streaked across Niamh's half charred face when she saw his hands* * Instead of commenting she plastered on another smile* "MIND THE FALL" *and with that she dragged Arthur down into the depths giggling all the way down*

Arthur:

( He, too, giggles on the way down, but it's far more nervous. ) Where are we going?

Starry Eyed:

"toooooOOOOOoooooooo MY HUMBLE ABODE" *she called after him, until the both of them ... were still surrounded by dark; echo-y, large you can assume but completely pitch black, even unable to see your own hands*

Arthur:

Ooo... This is weird..
