Bull sat on the floor - he wasn't quite sure he trusted the structural integrity of the couch - and before long a cat had appeared to investigate. He hadn't seen it earlier. He was tired, and he supposed he could go downstairs to his apartment - Dorian had shown him exactly which door was his. But he also wasn't sure about being alone yet, either. Too much happening in his head, too much concern, too many questions in his head that he didn't want to think about right now.

He pet the cat, gentle for something his size. He was surprised that it didn't seem perturbed by his sudden presence, or his size.

The Bull wondered if Dorian would mind if he fell asleep on his floor.

That response was an unexpected one, further outside the realm of possible answers than Biffy had expected. He let a raise in his eyebrows relay his surprise and no more, before speaking, "They are a class of the supernatural. Undead and drinkers of blood. They are also very fond of fashion."

Bull nodded, putting that information in context of what Biffy told him a moment ago. That was better. Undead he was familiar with, but ones that drank blood and were fashionable? That seemed new.

He wondered if it was some kind of blood magic.

"Almost sounds like Tevinter," he mused.

"From what Dorian's told me, I cannot help but agree," Biffy said, smiling thinly again. "There are ghosts, vampires, and werewolves in my England. Coexisting with mortals."

"We just have things possessed by demons and spirits," he grumbled. "Well. Ogres, giants, dragons, the undead, darkspawn..." He waved his hand a bit. "I wouldn't call what they do coexisting, though."

Biffy nodded. It sounded very different from his London, regardless of the simmering and politely suppressed tensions. "Well, hopefully you'll find the supernatural in this city better than that," Biffy said.

He held up the brandy bottle in lieu of his own, empty, cup, and toasted, "But here's to coexistence in all its forms."
