Constantine hurries out, presumably in search of a fresh supply. Kadrys returns his farewell nod, muttering in a voice almost too low to be heard, "Good luck, John." Kadrys' eyes are drawn away from the door as it closes behind Constantine, watching warily as a young redheaded man in forest green approaches his table. "Greetings. My name is Lancos. I hope that you don't mind my brief boldness, but I saw the departures of your other companions, and figured you might want the company." Kadrys nods in silent agreement, smiling slightly at Lancos and nudging a chair towards him with one foot. Lancos seats himself and continues "I have ordered myself a meal - is there anything I can get for you?" Kadrys permits himself a wider-than-usual smile at Lancos' mention of a meal, showing him a brief glint of fangs. "It is a kind offer, but one which I will not hold you to." Kadrys murmurs wryly, waiting with quiet, resigned amusement for the other's reaction.
