"Damn right it is," Ire said, the monotone of her voice ruining the desired effect. Without another word she slid the bunker door open. It took a fair amount of effort, considering the metal's weight. But she managed. Just as expected. Directly inside was what appeared to be a security room. Two disabled turrets were angled at the entrance, pointed pitifully at the ground. Cameras were placed in every corner. Towards the center was a sort of 'island', much like what one would find in a kitchen. However this one was a bit higher, had lights on the front, and had a hidden weapon storage area on the other side. Moving past that the duo would find another thick door. This one led to a long hallway. "Second door on the right. It's my living room, of sorts. We can finish our conversation there." Ire paused in the doorway before looking back at her companion. "By the way... I didn't decorate the place. Just restored what was already here. From what I can tell, the old owners had moved out before everything went to hell." Before Kaine fully took over. Ire took a moment of silence to mourn those who had been lost. Most hadn't even really opposed the takeover. They simply weren't viewed as 'worthy' in the Emperor's eyes. Even the Sekairos seemed to barely pass his inspection. Which was why the craziest member was currently parading around as someone else. "Welcome to my humble abode." They stepped into the white and green room a moment after. Special lights were placed on the walls to try and imitate natural light. On one side was a long, curved coach, across from it was a large display screen and some storage shelves. In one corner stood a lonely (fake) houseplant. Lastly, there was a small, circular table in the center. Nothing to fancy.

Circe paused. She considered how warm and inviting the space was, then turned to Ire and said:

Then she looked over at the potted plant, and saw that it was fake. The end result?

"Why put a fake plant there? There are admittedly a good deal of real-life species capable of growing underground. Why not try... A Vinithi?"

"It was here when I moved in. Apparently the previous owners didn't think that a real plant would 'fit the style' well enough. Or something," Ire said with a shrug. Then she walked over to the storage and started slipping out of her armor. There was, of course, clothing underneath. She pulled on jeans and a jacket anyway. "A Vinithi?... Do those come in any size besides humanoid and moving?" Though it was hard to tell, Ire was making a joke.

"I know you're joking, but they do. I still have laboratory remnants of them on Malachor V. Inhuman plant creatures with tentacles and a single eye... They look utterly horrifying." She paused, thinking more about Ire and the current situation the woman was in. "Still, I think they would do a good job of keeping you company, as well as being my eyes and ears."

Hm. Interesting. Ire had thought that the only remaining Vinithi were brain-dead bodies, simply put into stasis for various reasons. Having a tentacle beast around here home sounded... odd to her. Enough that even she would probably refuse Circe's offer. "Perhaps we could keep one- and I do mean one- in the living room. But you must understand me when I say I do like my privacy. Especially if I have... guests over. I trust you know what I mean by that," Ire said, slightly raising her brow. Delicate-looking fingers brushed back pastel bangs, sweeping them to the side. She needed a haircut. Muttering a few curse words she moved around, plopping herself down on the couch. "Circe, I have two more things to say. One: The Sekairos are officially pledged to House Zambrano. If we keep this up- this helping Kaine, protecting Panatha, and fighting his wars- we'll be getting our own keep near the castle. There are at least twenty of us here already. A dozen of them, including myself, are force users. House Sekairo is rising back to a position of power. We are regaining the honor lost by our ancestors. Two: What do you think I should do to my hair next? It's current form is quite... boring." Leave it to Ire to lump two completely different topics of two completely different levels of importance together. In her mind they were equal subjects to discuss. She was, understandably, more excited about the rise of the Sekairo clan. But a new position meant that she'd need to start appearing more regal. A change in haircut was simply one of several changes she'd have to make in time.

{OOC Note: At this point, Ire still looks like she used to. Pastel pink hair pulled into a messy bun.}

"If course I do, darling, but you might find that the plant does have its uses." She gave her lips a quick lick before returning to the topic at hand. "The former is good news, though it does assumedly mean that I'll see less of you and the others." She frowned, thinking further for a moment before coming up with a new idea. "I would recommend going black, with a shorter man-style cut. It'll make you look that much more intimidating. I promise."

That wasn't terribly surprising, really. Circe Savan tended to be predictable. The fact that her plants were capable of assisting with... 'pleasure' seemed like a normal thing. For her, at least. It didn't bother the woman's not-daughter in the slightest. Not even a tiddly bit. Nope. However, she had decided that she didn't want one around. Just for her own privacy. Or at least she was pretty sure she didn't want one. Perhaps this required more thought than she had realized. "In the end it will be for the best. Finally the Sekairos have a true place in the galaxy again. Even War'Rain- do you remember her? Even she has joined us. Her and her men are working as security. We are rising the ranks, milady. And one day we will be the Emperor's right hand. It will be glorious." Once again she smirked, reaching out her hand to gently clasp Circe's. "For all you have done... I will make sure you have a place on Panatha. This I promise you."

"It'll be nice to have a place." She paused, thinking more on what sort of thing she could do. "Somewhere in the galaxy that I actually belong. I'm like that key you have no idea as to what lock it belongs to, and you keep testing it so you can find out where it doesn't go to limit what you believe it might go to."
