"Pearls, yes," he says.

He finishes his drink, and sets the empty glass down on the pedestal of a column nearby.

"Well, pearl-diving is a rather exhausting, complicated and mostly unrewarding endeavour." She leaves her glass too, walking with her special friend. "I think a pearl market, perhaps in India... around the early 15th century, could be something interesting."

"There's also just eating a lot of oysters," he says with a smile, slipping an arm around her waist. "But I've never been overly fond of them. Something about the texture, I suppose."

"They are considered aphrodisiac. But it is not like either of us needs it, right?"

"You're all the aphrodisiac I could ever need."

Really, if a man can't find anything to stir his lust with her, of all creatures...

"That sounds perfect. We have gold to pay for the pearls."

"So we have a plan..." And The Devil smiles brightly, leading Weyland to the front door of the casino...

[mechanicalswans]

"A very good plan."

He hasn't done anything like this in a long time. Far too long.

And she is the best possible company for this kind of trouble.
