[He's standing, not grim, but serious, and his lips don't quirk into a smile when he sees her, but he does nod his head. Can't be too respectful of the first witch and the mother of demons.]
Lady Lilith.
[Because this room is warded beyond measure; Nick added spells that even Dorian doesn't know about.]
( he'd already suggested killing nick to try and kill lucifer but lilith had already shut that down and not only because it wouldn't have worked. she's not having sabrina's teenage angst on her )
It's a potential should he emerge. I told him that Lucifer was bound within a warlock. I didn't tell him who that was.
( and she still lives, though he'd been more concerned with his flock than trying to exorcise her. not that it would have done much good. though she also likes to believe she has a little leverage over him considering their earliest dealings. would he really want that getting out? )
He may prefer to kill you in hope it would prevent Lucifer's arrival-- ( though he had quietened from the idea when she'd said that it wouldn't kill lucifer. at least he'd appeared to listen to her expertise on the angel ) --but he would also not see him walk here.

[ First off: respect, that's critical when dealing with Lilith in any way. He won't fuck it up when it comes to her.
Second, they both have a monetary stake in the Gray Room; it's warded, it's where Nick carries out his business. ]
no subject
( except she wasn't planning on continuing the conversation there. she had her private room that wasn't on the floor plan.
it isn't long between their messages before she arrives -- it's important business )

Lady Lilith.
[Because this room is warded beyond measure; Nick added spells that even Dorian doesn't know about.]
What happened?
no subject
( she also doesnt know about his wards, a little paranoid in terms of being overheard on this particular issue.
if he agrees she'll lead him to her private room, the door only unveiling once lilith puts her hand to the door, the spell fading at her touch.
she moves in, pulling out a bottle of whiskey and two glasses, pouring the drinks at her table )
There's a conversation you should be aware of. Regarding Lucifer.
no subject
All right. I'm listening.
[He crosses his arms over his chest, but he looks at her with the attention of someone who knows what's coming.]
no subject
I spoke with someone regarding your-- situation. A vampire hunter.
( it was the easier part to lead with. she'd get to him being a catholic priest later )
He has a relic that has potential. Against Lucifer.
no subject
[He frowns a little, but only because he's thinking.]
What would that do to me?
no subject
( he'd already suggested killing nick to try and kill lucifer but lilith had already shut that down and not only because it wouldn't have worked. she's not having sabrina's teenage angst on her )
It's a potential should he emerge. I told him that Lucifer was bound within a warlock. I didn't tell him who that was.
no subject
[Consorting with priests of the False God?]
no subject
It is.
( she moves to bring him one of the glasses, drinking some from her own as she sits across from him )
no subject
[He is doing his best to not look concerned.]
no subject
( and she still lives, though he'd been more concerned with his flock than trying to exorcise her. not that it would have done much good. though she also likes to believe she has a little leverage over him considering their earliest dealings. would he really want that getting out? )

no subject
[Because Nick has no illusions about what he is.
What he is is a host. He rubs his face a little.]
Well, if the binding fails, we can try it, I suppose.
no subject
I assume nothing has changed there.
( and if it had and he hadn't let her know she wouldn't be happy about it )
no subject
[Nick is starting to get a little worried, paranoid, and also relaxed. Maybe that binding is working.]
no subject
It may be holding him at bay. As long as you continue with it.
( she doubts he would relax too much or stop his efforts but it was always worth a reminder )
But-- you have more to think about now.
no subject
[There's a promise.]
But I don't trust his intentions.
no subject
( she lets one hand reach along the table, fingers stretching out )
You do have Sabrina here now.
( though she only knows that sabrina has talked about him, that they had a little flirtation. not the rest of it )
no subject
She'll have to decide, if she wants to be involved.
[He won't make her. He won't suggest it.]
no subject
You were friends before any of that, weren't you?
( she's here to talk magic not any of your young drama )
no subject
Yes.
[He says it with a hint - but only a hint - of hesitation.]
no subject
( and if they do anything else that's all on them. sabrina's talked to her enough about her mortal dramas previously )
Which is what she'll need. It's what you all need.
