*She laid down, but sleep did not come. Meeting with Ivan, not just one of his dogs. Not that she hadn't met him before, but he left her cold, a chilliness that lingered no matter how warm it was out. Even demons felt something, but this man, ice personified. She'd never met someone so emotionless, so flat. He didn't smile, his rare laugh was humorless. She'd seen him in "angry" mode, issuing orders in short bursts, but not shouted, there was no flush to his face, no flash in those pale blue-gray eyes. Not a man to play poker with... Russian Roulette more his style anyway. She stares at the ceiling, reminding herself not to lose her temper, to stay calm, even. And sharp, must stay sharp. Not easy to do when the man spoke in a monotone. She forces her mind to go quiet, relaxed and drifts off, not asleep but not awake.*

Too distraught at the sight to even hear Icy, she is unbuckling her seatbelt and trying to hop out of the car before it even stops. dame stumbles up the walkway, eyes wide as saucers and frantic. She starts shaking, her eyes darting this way and that as she looks upon the ruins of the house, the embers almost burning out, but dame couldn't really tell how long it had been like this.
dame's eyes zone onto her car, parked pristinely beside what used to be the house, safe enough distance to be out of harm's way of the fire that had happen but TOO close yet and JUST out of harm's way to be a coincident. It is too clean and convenient to be happenstance. dame angrily whips her keys out of her pocket, storming to her car, high heel getting caught on something and sending her almost crashing to the ground as she goes.
She picks herself back up and continues on to the car, heatedly jamming her key in and flings the door open. She leans inside and rips open the glove compartment, snatching out the to-go phone. She turns it on and gets out of the car impatiently waiting for it to turn on. "Come on! COME ON!! scream " she shrills.
Soon it is on and she is pushing one key, activating the speed dial. A voice soon answers, before they can even give a greeting, dame starts yelling.
"What did you do to the house!?!?! scream " "I was wondering when you'd find that." "You razed it to the ground!! How could you!?!?! scream mad evil " "You can get away with anything if you pay off the right people. rolleyes " "All my stuff was in there! All mother's affects!" her voice broke, "Lorraine's things!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!? evil scream scream " She answers in a scathing voice, "That's what you get for leaving a trail so visible that your little friend Exor could fine it several hours later! mad " dame stands there gap-mouthed, eyes bugging out in utter shock that L would give such a ridiculous answer. She razed the ******** house! Before she can respond, L speaks again. "See you soon, dame," L says mockingly and hangs up.
dame is still for half a second before she screams at the top of her lungs and lunges the phone into the embers of the house, soundly hitting a smoldering, barely-holding-on support beam bringing it crashing to the ground with a loud clamor. The ashy rubble burns orange for a second before popping and cracking and shuddering back to smolder. dame squeezes her eyes shut and balls her fists, hot angry tears streaming down her face.
