Integra sat down at the table after grabbing one of the books from the shelf which she was using for research on the realm they were living in. She'd opened the book and began reading to pass the time:
Right on time Sebastian had entered the room with the child. She closed the book and set it aside. "Have a seat," she had ordered. She would allow Sebastian to answer his question as she was in no mood to indulge on the ignorance of another at this moment. On todays schedule, a lunch time nap would be in order instead of lunch itself.

It took quite a bit of self control for him to refrain from looking entirely skeptical. The child hadn't known what morning was; so he there was really no way he would know what tea was. He sighed as he poured a cup for the boy; and pressed the warm glass into his hands rather than putting it on the table. He would try to keep his explanation simple. "Tea is a drink created when hot water and flavor from certain plant leaves are mixed. That's all it is; water with a pleasant aroma and somewhat bitter taste. The taste can be made more pleasant when certain other substances are added' such as milk or sugar. The herbal properties of the plants used allow for some affect upon the one who consumes the drink; most often a calming of nerves." He was finding this irritating to explain. The child was just so... Clueless... And he reminded the demon of helpless Ciel Phantomhive... He paid little attention to the removing of the blindfold, though it was somewhat satisfying to know that the boy had at least some sense of courtesy.

"Thank you, it sounds as satisfying as its smell.", said Kuxir as he sat softly in the chair, sipping quietly at his tea. It was strong, but it did calm him to an eery silence as he awaitied Integra's words. He felt a slight nervousness build in his chest. He remembered he did intrude in their home, and it is obviously frowned upon here. Then again, there were no dwellings in the realm of darkness. If there was, the darkness would completly destroy it. It never rained there, and the weather never changed. All is calm there.
All was not calm on this world. This planet suffered from unstable weather at times, and its denizens waged war in death against each other over dominion of the world. This is why he chose to side with Xemnas, for he would wipe away all this sorrow in heartbreak. Only time will tell what will happen if he is successful.

She took her time to drink her tea and slowly start to wake up. The room felt stuffy to her, but it didn't matter too much at this point no backing down. Integra set the cup down and crossed her fingers staring at the boy. How he made it into her house undetected was a mystery to her given his state. However, she was interested in what he had to say.
"All things aside, breaking into my mansion and loitering about. What is your reasoning for being here," Integra questioned, if he could see her she had a strict and stern gaze on her face, her tone of voice was heavier than usual given the sickness she'd come down with, but the tone of her voice remained cold none the less.

Once he was sure the boy had a good hold on the cup, then felt a tense moment of discomfort. Integra was indeed a bit feverish; even if she did deny it. He turned toward the large window of her office; taking swift steps toward it. He unlocked the intricate wooded frames; and pushed the glass outward, allowing what was close to fresh air into the room. This place in Hallowton was certainly apocalyptic; but the extensive grounds and plant life of the estate did their job of clearing pollution very well. There was a cool breeze which made it's way into the room; lifting his hair and tailcoat. Once he made his way back to the desk, he allowed a look of stubborn disapproval to pass over his features as he saw that Integra hadn't touched her breakfast yet. Yes, she had a visitor to deal with; and it could be considered rude to eat in front of a guest who had no food laid before him. But all the same... When one wasn't feeling well; food and drink was necessary. He was easily concerned by sickness; as that was the only real loophole out of a Faustian Contract, death by illness on the human's part. But it was only a slight fever in Integra's case... He had no reason to worry so much. But the demon couldn't help it. He took a moment to refill Integra's teacup; before taking up his position at her shoulder with his arms hanging at his sides, a polite interest in his eyes as he studied their visitor.  |

Kuxir frowned slightly of breaking in. He did intrude on her property, but breaking in suggested entering in a violent manner. In his ignorant state, he knew no wrong and simply walked in with the twist of the door handle. Perhaps someone forgot to lock the door.... "I didn't break in, I simply walked in. As for why I am here... I came to join your operation here. Would you accept us?", he said implying both him and his guards.
He took another sip of the tea and found himself more awake than he thought he was. He began drumming his gloved fingers against his knee uncontrollably as he awaited her response.

"I have no use for a blind child who disregards the privacy of a gated community," Integra took a drink of her tea, she wanted nothing more than to go back to bed and try and break the fever she was getting, but business called and this child was one of the few things stopping her from doing just that today.
There was a short pause in Integra's words however, she crossed her legs and gave a rather irritated look at the boy, "Us?"
