[To her, that actually sounds kind of fun. However, imagining Clare or Tabitha in this kind of environment is enough to make her laugh out aloud. So much stoic, in a place full of rowdy bastards. It's funny, okay? God, maybe she really has had too much too drink.]

Well, if anyone bothers you, just let me at them, alright? I'll kick their asses. I'm good at that. [She proclaims loudly, her eyes falling on two particularly rowdy patrons - a male and a female, yelling happily at each other over god knows what. Their words are so slurred, that Helen has no clue what they're trying to say.]

[digophelia]

I am on good terms with this court -- this place has become a home to me.

[ She likes it here, despite her misgivings for the Unseelie monarchs and the monarchs, period. But she has great friends here and she would do anything for them. ]

I'm small, but I can fend for myself, thank you.

[makestrouble]

Are you sure? You seem pretty scrawny. And short. [Not that short people can't kick ass, but Helen likes to be an ass about things like that, anyway. It's pretty fun. She takes a sip of her beer, before smirking behind the glass, silver eyes twinkling with amusement. This one is a bit of a smart ass. Helen can respect that.]

You should probably consider eating more.

[digophelia]

[ Short, she knows. Scrawny actually has Alice scowling. She likes to think she's far from it and she's slowly regained weight she needed. ]

Believe me, I do. Where I come from, we didn't have more than one meals or feasts. It would be a waste of food otherwise.

[makestrouble]

You seem human. That's probably not food enough for you. [At least her kind have an excuse when they eat like birds. Helen is considered a big eater, and even she eats considerably less than an average human.

She grins, hopping up from her seat to grab a plate. She puts a chicken leg on it and goes to hand it to Alice, wearing a big grin as she does so.]

Start with this!

[digophelia]

Of course I'm human, I-

[ If ever presented with a plate of food, she never turns it down. She says nothing, she looks down at the chicken leg and back to her. Alice is assuming she's human, too, why else wouldn't she be. ]

Thank you.

[makestrouble]

[Helen likes to consider herself human, with a few added benefits. Sure, she can sense yoki, and has enhanced strength among other things, but her heart is still human. It always will be, as far as she's concerned. That's something she promised herself a long time ago. She would sooner die than become an awakened one.

Chuckling, she grabs a plate and some chicken for herself, before sitting back down. It smells pretty amazing, and it should be just enough to fill her stomach for the time being.]

You're welcome! Wouldn't want you to miss out. All the good stuff seems to be going quick!

[digophelia]

It's better that it's eaten than go to waste.

[ She really doesn't have much of a choice to sit, does she? Not with this large of a chicken leg. It's a little awkward to eat at first, because she's so used to eating with a fork and a knife that the concept of food like this seems very impolite.

But that doesn't seem to be the issue with the merriment around her. Alice tries to take tentative bites, since it is a little too messy for her liking. Meat is great -- she actually likes meat! There's not this good enough chicken or beef in London, anyway. ]

Sorry for the slow!

[makestrouble]

[Helen couldn't care less about the way she eats. She uses her hands and if she eats messily, then people just have to deal with it. Her own food isn't exactly messy, though she does take a couple of large bites. It's like she hasn't eaten in months.]

See? Exactly. God, when I was a kid, my parents would get so damn mad if I didn't eat every thing on my plate. [Talking about her parents isn't something that phases her too much. She'd rather keep their memories alive in her hearts, than repress her memories of them completely.]

I'd have to sit at the table until I was finished. Every. Night.
