Playzooki extracts a jacket from the casket, and immediately all eyes in the room are upon him as the thing he pulls out the most sequinned object that has been produced in the multiverse. Even the sequins on the sequins have sequins. A note that falls out of it suggests that it is designed to be bullet proof, fire proof and stabbing weapon resistant, which is kind of necessary in that it makes the wearer the complete centre of attention in a room, in any context at all, be it romantic or target for assassination. It also has several pockets which still smell of the residue of illicit substances.
The door shuts behind Vengeance giving him complete privacy.
Arriving suddenly out of nowhere, Aurelia quickly is drawn to the casket of Maurice Francois, and on opening it up he finds a bizarre artifact - a ten seater collapsible bicycle where all the internal tubing seems to be filled with some ancient and particularly potent wine. A stopper on the handlebar seems to be how you extract this ludicrous vintage.
Professor Vengeance successfully modifies his little butlerbot and the robot detects no immediate threats from the sphere. He hesitantly places his hands on it and suddenly the sphere doesn't feel quite so solid - it flows in liquid metal form around and onto Vengeances hands before forming into a particularly dapper pocketwatch. A quick test reveals this to be thoughtsteel - a superhard metal that morphs into whatever shape the owner requires of it. However, from the middle of this sphere drops a tiny glowing object which hits the floor and begins to project up a hologram. One unmistakably of the face of a very elderly Professor Reginald Fortescue Vengeance (Esq.)
"So... you took your time..."
