Drake was unamused and for now just stood there hand his sword. Waiting.

The man offered him a smile that could almost be mistaken for kind. "Come have a seat, Drake. We have plenty to talk about." He motioned towards one of the strange, throne-like chairs that lined the room and leaned back in his seat, as if to get comfortable.
"This here is Tiger and Dragon. They're friends of mine, and have been curious to meet you."

"Hm."
Was all Drake would say, only shifting his hips in response to having a seat. He scan the souls of the three people. Wanting to confirm something...

The leader's soul looked much the same as it had before... fairly plain, obviously corrupt. However, there were little random seeming bits of color throughout it, small shining lights that looked almost like Christmas lights twinkling on a tree.
The other two, Dragon and Tiger, had dangerous, black souls, almost as if they were devoid of light altogether. Their souls looked even more identical than they did: swirling masses of pain, hate, and violence. There was no doubting that these two were, simply put, evil, down to their very cores.
"You don't want a seat? You won't take me up on my hospitality?"

Drake had established the 'strong and silent persona here. Best to keep it that way for now. He didn't know how this man's abilities worked. Best to not do anything until he was sure. However, after looking at the twins he would adjust his grip on sword to be closer to activating the protection rune.

The man smiled, and for a moment, he looked almost... pleasant. He was relaxed, and it appeared he had no weapon on him whatsoever. He crossed one leg lazily over the other.
"I know our dear friend said you weren't to talk around me, but come now. You don't have to follow that. You didn't have to follow it then, dandy doo. You can chat with me."

"The name is Drake. And I'm still waiting to see if this is worth my time."
He would say bluntly.

"Ah, so he DOES speak. I almost thought our cute little hacker friend had ripped out your tongue."
This brought a slow but striking smile from the female lounging next the man. She stroked her fingers along the back of his seat, but both she and her brother remained silent.
"I'm assuming you'd like me to cut to the chase."

"I didn't come today for foreplay."
He would state.

"No. You came today to... what, exactly? Satisfy some sort of curiosity?"
He smiled at Drake again, reaching up to gently play with a strand of Dragon's hair.

"I came because Iskiera asked me nicely."
He would say watching carefully for a reaction.

A look of what appeared to be genuine confusion crossed the man's face.
"Iskiera? Now, thats a strange name. Is that the new name of our little hacker friend? She comes up with some interesting ones."

The man chuckled slightly. He seemed to thoroughly enjoy how forward Drake was. Resting comfortably, he continued to fiddle with the young girl's hair.
"We know who you are, here. And, to a degree, we know what you are capable of. We wanted to offer you a place of sanctuary, here in this new world... where you can find people, of your own kind."

"I have a place, and I can take care of myself just fine. Your goon yesterday learned that the hard way."
And fuck his own kind.
