You two entered the northern bank.

After Scaramouche had a heated debate with Pantalone about the fact that he wasted the money of the Fatui you two returned to the hotel where the auction took place before.

Scaramouche also explained to you that Pantalone had to provide the Harbingers with money. At least now you knew where Scaramouche got his wealth from.

It turned out that the auction hadn't reached an end yet. From now on it had nothing to do with business, the entertainment started. For obvious reasons you had to appear there as well.

It was interesting to watch how other various flowers were added to the hotel decoration.

Only a couple of guests were left in the lobby, everyone else disappeared inside their rooms to get ready for the upcoming ball.

You two disappeared in a hotel room as well.

It was an agents job to show you your dress. With the help of the agent you tied the dress and put on pretty shoes.

None of you lost a word while she helped you. A second dead agent wasn't what you wanted.

Before she left you alone she kneeled and pointed at a mirror signalizing to check out your appearance. The dress was pretty heavy since it was a traditional ball gown dress. Your collar bones were visible, typical for a dress with a low décolletage.

Happily you spun yourself around making the dress fly like a fluffy little cloud. "I see you have fun here."

For the first time you saw Scaramouche without traditional clothes.. instead he was wearing a dark blue suit. The same blue your dress was colored.

"I think it's time to go downstairs." You just nodded and grabbed the front layers of your dress to move faster.

He brought you back to the doors of the auction hall. A Fatui agent opened them for you.. hand in hand you stepped in.

The chairs from before got removed, on the podium where hours ago children were sold live music was played and in the coroners of the hall small sofas were placed. The decoration improved as well. Red garlands were hanging down the ceiling.

"You can go and sit down on a sofa or have a drinking, I will return soon." He left you alone among strangers. As long as the sofas were empty it was a good idea to sit down.

You walked over to one and sat down. After s short period of time someone joined you.

"So..." the man grabbed your arm and pulled your hand close to his mouth. "Hello, what's your name."  His lips ghosted your hand before he finally kissed it.

It was the tall Harbinger from the auction who set next to you, the one Scaramouche had an argument with.

Pantalone

"[y/n]"...

"I saw you in company with the Balladeer, must be quit -tiring."

You looked around trying to find Scaramouche somewhere. "Well I'm used to it." For his disappointment you pulled your hand away.

"You are quite pretty with those deep empty eyes. I could offer you a job as an escort in Snezhnaya."

Working as an escort itself wasn't the problem but what type of work would be included in it?

"If you think about Scaramouche right now. I don't care what kind of relationship you have with him. I gave you an offer.. just you."

You sighed. "And I appreciate it but sadly have to refuse your offer." You noticed him mumble strange words.
