// go get your gun, get your gun //
Distraction is a beautiful game, the Butcher decides then and there.
Because no sooner does a stranger enter, does Astaroth’s orange gaze focus in on him as a target. The lial remains unnoticed in the face of the magnificent crimson waterfall which is a blessing as the ripples from its falling streams hide the movement of the predator in the bloody water. It’s sticky and warm and essentially perfect for an Ancient looking for a spa day.
The cherry on top is an unaware dragoon venturing into the pit of sanguine splendor.
So the lial slips through the water, the butcher watching and waiting to see just how close he can get to the unsuspecting Accepted, volcanic body dripping with water as he slips out of the pool, blending in so perfectly well with the surroundings it’s almost laughable. It gives him time to open his maw of sharp teeth, clamp around the bag the man carries with his clammy hands, and tugs at it, hard to try and release the grip.
Why? Pure curiosity, of course. And it isn't like he has anything better to do.
