Welcome to Gaia! ::

Teon always kept his windows open, even in the rain. He kept them open so that when working he didn't have to worry about opening them to vent out chemical fumes. Saved him trouble.

As of now he sat at a small table, eating meat and vegetables while writing down what appeared to be calculations on a pade of paper. As well as a few obsessive columns of the word Aiden.

Teon paused his scribblings for a moment, hearing the creak of a door. Paranoid as ever he stood and walked to his gun cabinet, pulling out an already loaded shot gun. Better safe than sorry.

Moving to the door that lead down to his laboratory, he locked the locks on it. Various kinds, mostly padlocks and the like. Yes, he didn't want anyone down there at all. Locks secure he he slipped back into a corner that was shadowed.

Maybe someone would get riddled with buckshot, maybe not.

Now it depneded on the actions of his visitor. He wouldn't shoot if his stranger didn't attempt anything stupid. So it was a stalemate of sorts. Of course the c**k of the shot gun was his warning to Verdandy. He wasn't about to let anyone find out his basement kept secrets.

Verdandy would now be looking down the barrel of a shot gun, Teon on the other end and a finger on the trigger, his sights set on the drow. "It's called your death if you don't explain yourself and you meaning for being here within the next thirty seconds."

Barrel into Verdandy's shoulder now, making her step back as Teon stepped forward. "My abilities? You could of used the front door if you wanted to talk. I think you're lying." But of course, "Only thieves, snoops, and criminals use anything other than door."

Teon raied an eyebrow at the flash of white. Now now, he could of just become a very lucky man...he could use another something for his experiment bench. White hair wasn't a common human trait...which meant... "You don't see anyone else using a window, now do you? Door have purposes."Tell me dear...where are you from?" His gun lowered a little.

Teon only smiled in that creepy way of his. Obviously she wasn't human. And if she was something else, she had the potential to be used to his liking. Who knows, she may be some help to getting his Aiden back. Teon put his shot gun down, resting it against the wall. Now he would play nice nice. "Forgive me, you're most certainly right. My mistake...I grow paranoid in my older years. Tell me, what is it that you wanted to know." And how can I lure you down stairs?

"Make things better? Things inside you?" He had to think for a moment. She smelled of smoke and alcohol, so she must have been at the tavern...which meant she heard talk. "Alcemical infusion? Is that what you speak of young one?" He gave a fake hardy laugh. "Why yes, yes I can."
