"Brilliant."
He grinned and scrambled over to the grab the little meal, setting himself up and digging in heartily.
"Mm. Stho...wath i' you wan' know?" he mumbled around a cheekful of bread.

*Julian thought on that for a moment, for truly, he had many questions.*
"I wish to know of this beast. And who you are. And why it is that you have so little regard for your own safety. And why you were dead, but are no longer."

He swallowed the mouthful and tilted back some wine, then popped a smaller bit of cheese into his mouth before digging into the meat.
"That's a load of questions, friend. I'm Grantaire. They used to call me Grand R. Beast belongs to some rich one-armed drunk, That's none of your business, and I don't know. Fair?"

"Fair."
But not fair enough.
*Julian leaned against the wall.*
"Where is it that you belong, when you are not here?"

"The nearest wine shop."
He muttered and used his bread to clean up whatever was left in the plate of meat and veg and finished off the cheese--he'd been hungrier than he thought.
"What day is it?"

*Julian frowned at the question.*
"I don't know. Why?"
*Time meant little to Erik. And less to him.*

"Just trying to figure out when I last ate. Doesn't matter."
He sat back against a wall and finished the wine.
"Thanks for the food. I didn't catch your name."

"Julian." *He answered plainly.*
"It was sufficient, no?"
*He glanced to the empty plate.*

"Mmhm. 's't good."
He agreed and stood up, the blanket hanging from his angular shoulders, and grabbed the bars at the front of the cell.
"Guess I'm ready then..." he looked around.
"So...you like prisoner games I take it? I can do that."

*Julian's brow lifted. He wasn't really into any sort of games. Puzzles perhaps but...*
"I merely incarcerated you for your own safety. There are many traps and other dangers down here. It would not do well to have you stumbling about."

*Julian frowned, pausing before unlocking the door of the cell.*
"I was just...hoping you had more to tell me."
*He seemed almost saddened that things hadn't panned out as he'd hoped.*

"More to tell about what? Why would you want to know?"
He wrapped the blanket around himself and exited the cell, looking up at the man.

"About..." *Julian sighed in frustration at the potential and effort wasted.*
"It doesn't matter. You may go, if you want."

"You want to know more about the monster, right? There isn't much more to tell. The Comte keeps it locked up sometimes, sometimes lets it run free in the catacombs. It does whatever he wants--fetches or kills or scares. 's huge. And it doesn't seem to care for fire. That's all I know. Why ar eyou so interested?"
He sniffed and rubbed his stubbled cheek on the similarly scratchy blanket.
