When in Rome....ania. (Claire/Santa)

The sky gently peeled back as Santa arrived in yet another new section of the world of the living. Her aim a bit better this time as she wound up at the top of a building looking down onto the landscape below. She smiled calmly to herself, pure enjoyment dancing across her features as she began to scan the area, her pesquisa briefly pinging the area before she paused. A very large cluster away from the others? She turned, looking over her shoulder and briefly finding herself a bit.... surprised. Modern architecture was MOST of what she saw in the world of the living, it was just how things were these days. However, what she saw in the distance defied that trend.
Off in the distance, of all things she saw.... a castle! Not that she knew what a castle was, or that that was what the structure she saw before her was even called. But almost immediately she had to take a slow breath to calm herself, maintaining her focus as she tempered her own excitement.
Control.
Refocusing, she still didn't manage to expel the smile from her face as she promptly, vanished with a dull static flicker. A sonido to rapidly move in and close the distance with the massive place. Of course, she didn't make it all the way there, but with a few steps, she was.... albeit a little gaspy, but almost all the way to the structure itself!
"Hey! Off the road!" The voice JARRED her from her focus, moving quickly out of the way as a driver promptly rolled his eyes and kept on driving. "Damn tourists." He growled out of his window as he moved past, her brows furrowing a little. No matter how many years passed, she was NOT fond of how ....common spiritual awareness had become in the last couple hundred years. She missed the old days when she could explore quietly. All the same... she .... slipped away from the main road to the castle, making her way closer through the unbeaten path. She didn't want to attract any unwanted attention.
The going was .... considerably slower, but it wouldn't be long until she reached that castle, and she was already dying to figure out just what was IN such a place.

THE MOTHER OF SUEKI
Claire had begun to wonder why it was that so many interesting people would suddenly reveal themselves within her domain. It seemed to be happening quite frequently lately. More frequently than it had previously, at the least. Or perhaps she hadn't payed as much attention to it before she donned her crown. Still, interesting was interesting, and she'd be remiss not to investigate. With a smile, she stood from the throne she'd been seated upon, and motioned to one of the many servants that tended to her needs.
"Tend to the castle whilst I'm away. I suspect I shall return shortly."
With nothing left to say, she disappeared into a darkness that seemed eerily unnatural. Although, that was simply an outside perspective. To her, it was the most natural thing in the world. Within a few short moments, she'd traveled from her throne room to the outskirts of the castles land. She glanced around for a moment, taking in the scenery that she so cherished. After all, who would build a castle in a place they found boring?
Before long she spotted the reason for her outing. What appeared to be a young woman, although Claire was quite sure she was much older than she appeared to be. However, the emotions she was picking up were quite juvenile. Perhaps this one was stunted in its growth. Oh well, all things can be remedied. Or, at the very least, entertaining.
She stepped forth, intersecting the woman's path, before she began to speak.
"Well, what do we have here? I'm flattered that you've decided to pay me a visit. You're quite beautiful as well, aren't you? I think I'll have you for dinner. Over for dinner, I mean."
Claire laughed lightly as she made her own little joke. She assumed the other party would be mostly unaware of the implications, although the implications were misleading in the first place. She had no intention of doing any harm, which could be readily sensed by the serene nature of the emotional energy she was radiating.
"I do insist."

The rather abrupt appearance of the woman almost startled the woman from what she'd been focusing on! Before she'd had the chance to get her bearings, the woman was suddenly speaking to her. Her brows knitting together as she....stared down at the woman. At 6'2" Santa had a tendency to tower over most other women, but well, she was admittedly focusing on other things than the stranger's height at that very moment.
She glanced from the woman themselves to the castle out in the distance. [volor=goldenrod]"Visit you...... do you ..... live up there?"[/color] She asked with furrowed brows. Though when Claire continued to speak it only served to cause a bit more surprise in the arrancar, her head tilting to the side, her antlers almost catching on some low branches. She was being called beautiful? However, the mention of eating her caused her eyes to narrow. A hollow knew better than to simply let that sort of thing go. Between that, and that suspicious niceness, Santa was promptly suspicious. But she didn't let it show too much.
Rather, she curtsied slightly and responded. "I am Santa Estallar. An Arrancar. I was simply curious about the building there. It seemed so different from the human places that I'm used to seeing." She explained calmly enough. She seemed lax, though her guard was still very much up. As if expecting to be attacked suddenly.

THE MOTHER OF SUEKI
Claire was amused by the woman before her, and expressed this with a slight smile before she spoke once more.
"Well of course it doesn't look human silly, that's because it isn't. Neither am I, in fact. I'm a Sueki. I do wonder if you've ever heard of us. Well, it's all the same really. "
Claire looked her over once more, allowing her eyes to linger where they pleased, as she always did.
"You don't have to be so tense, it was just a joke. Your blood doesn't smell very tasty anyway. But, I will show you my castle if you so desire. I was just about to have a bath, but I suppose that can wait a few more hours. Or you could join me. "
With that said Claire winked mischievously, and began to turn.
"Do come along now, darling."
Her days had been somewhat uneventful lately, so Claire didn't mind the prospect of having some company over. She never minded meeting new people in the first place, but this was exceptionally true when she was bored. Perhaps she'd have to do something about all of this downtime shortly. That, however, was a thought for another time.

Santa paused for a moment at that, furrowing her brows just a little as she took a glance to the castle in the distance. But she was already a bit on edge. The air around them growing thick as bones and fingers slowly grew from the nearby trees, curling and digging into the bark as the Garden responded to her unease. It wasn't made by humans? Her curiosity did rise, though she began to feel it bubbling up inside of her. Panic. Danger. That amplified sense of things slowly beginning to sharpen as eyes and ears began slithering their way out of the surroundings.
"If you own the place, you probably don't want me muckin around it, homegirl. I make a bit of a mess." She murmured, recognizing her own ....issue as she focused, causing those fingers to dissolve into nothing. Though the extra sensory organs remained as she kept that bit of paranoia in the back of her head. "IF you're not human, what ARE you?" She asked, ignoring the comment about a bath. She vaguely recalled hearing about it among humans, but she didn't actually know what such a thing entailed, but it seemed to generally be a private thing. Not something she intended to intrude on.

THE MOTHER OF SUEKI
Claire looked at the woman before her with confusion on her face. Hmm. She seems kind of slow. Oh well, it can't be helped.
"I just told you what I am dear. I'm a Sueki. The Queen of the Sueki, actually. I rule this land, and now the humans are better off than they ever have been. Especially now that the demons are gone."
Claire smiled as she said this last bit, as if remembering the exhilarating night in which she'd taken control over Romania. She was getting somewhat tired of standing here though, and it seemed the woman in front of her was more on guard than she had any right to be. Thinking this, Claire decided she would use her ability to calm the woman so that they could get out of this forest, and begin to make their way back to her castle. She began to focus her emotional energy, and when she had gathered enough, she released it with her next sentence.
"I'm sure it will be fine, sweetie. Why don't you just calm down and come with me? There's nothing to be afraid of."
As she was speaking a strong sense of calm began to wash over the area, and a warm smile spread across Claire's lips. She wasn't quite sure why this woman was so on edge, but it had gotten more than a little annoying, and she had no ill intentions either way.
After a few moments of waiting, she spoke once more.
"How are you feeling, I wonder?"

Santa frowned just a little. "I don't know what a Sueki is." She finally admitted, clearly asking for an explanation. She did run into the various flavors of human, but she hadnm't the slightest clue what those little differences actually MEANT.
However, that Sentence caused a sudden blink from Santa. The woman....furrowing her brows just a little before her shoulders slumped. And the garden twisted. Blood bubbling up from the ground and the trees as bone slither from the ground and twisted into deer-like skulls, slowly coiling from the fleshy mat of the garden and twisting to stare directly at Claire. That sentence managed to successfully shove Santa's mental state into a calm, relaxed one.
One where she was no longer restraining her Garden. And those twisted bodies leered at the red-haired woman, clawed limbs spilling into existence as bone and flesh sprouted all around them. Trees made from the bones and ligaments sprouting like pale white vines as well as a small pack of those ghoulish wendigos.
"I feel alright I guess. If you want we can go to the Castle." She murmured, seeming entirely compliant, and even WITH the shift in the garden, the grisly Deer seemed more intent on keeping an eye on the woman than acting at the moment, as if guarding the woman that had been shoved into that dull passive state.
