There's an Endless in the bar.
It's shocking.
Desire. In the bar. Who would have guessed?
... Well. Perhaps anyone even vaguely familiar with this particular Endless, but that's neither here nor there.

Desire seems to be without intent this evening, just staying at the usual table, smoking the usual cigarette, and a simple glass of champagne in hand.

An undirected Desire is a bored Desire.
Bad news for anyone who wasn't looking to become Desire's evening entertainment...

His eyes are rather wider than they were before when she stands, and he swallows as she walks his way, but manages to stand and give her something like a bow.

"Ahm... h-hello, ma'am."

It is to his everlasting embarassment that his voice stutters there.

"Henry," she offers in return, offering him a dangerous smirk as she sits, glass balanced carefully between books and on the table. "And none of that 'ma'am' nonsense -- It's just Desire."

His face is completely red.

"D-D-Desire. Ah... nice to meet you."

He sits, eyes on her. He swallows. Her beauty, and well, Her-ness is distracting. His mind tries to catch up, slowly.

"I don't think I have ever had the pleasure to meet you."

Oh, he has desired before, but he has rarely ever gotten his desires. Not in his world.

He's blushing? Oh, that's adorable: Desire could just eat him up.

Of course, when he admits he's not met her... Desire's lower lip trembles, not quite a pout but distinctly one of those Signs that a woman is possibly verging on unhappy enough to cry.

"-- You don't remember?"

There is mental flailing. There is panic, and some eyes widening.

"I- I... Um. Sure! I mean... wait... "

He flails into silence.

"I don't... "

He swallows, having gone pale.

"I am sorry, ma'am. I... I don't."

Desire takes a small amount of pity on the cute young thing and reaches over, lightly patting his hand: Her touch is hot enough to be dangerously feverish against his skin.

"No need to apologize, Henry. At least you're honest -- even if I hadn't thought I was forgettable."
