Light of May ::: an original roleplay

Who: Kitty and Tanith
When: Early afternoon
Where: Ad Gustum dungeons

Tanith's meeting with Lex had been so very fun. Tanith had not expected to enjoy living in this place, but she realized now that it would come with a new hobby. And that hobby? Would be slowly driving Lex insane.

She had considered her options for how best to do this, and had determined the most logical option, he had already told her of himself. His little redhead siren in the dungeons. How appropriate, the one place she had completely unlimited access to. It didn't take her long to find which cell was hers, which she let herself into like she owned the place. She eyed the redhead appraising her, and spoke, "Are you the siren that the vampire Lex has unwillingly claimed for his own?"

Who: Missy and Rita
Where: News station
When: Evening

This vampire attack was a big deal and Missy was happy to be covering it for two reason. One, it meant that she could further stake her claim as the supernatural expert for all of Ann Arbor's reporting areas. Two, it meant that there was not going to be anyone sniffing around the trail and messing it up on her. Oh sure they might try but she had claim now. It may have only been two years but anyone who had been around for more than a day knew how bad of an idea it was to try and mess with stories that Missy claimed as her own. No one made that mistake twice.

But first thing was first and despite all the work that she had to do - because there were two jobs and two paychecks riding on this, not just one - Missy knew that touching base was important. Plus she liked to keep up her impressions and being one of those reporters who only popped in to get their assignment and spent all of their time in the field? Was not her style anyhow. Nor was being an anchorwoman. People may not have understood that but being tied down to a desk and forced to go through mundane things while everyone else had all the fun? Maybe when she was too old to keep up. Twenty-eight was definitely not too old. But still, she was going to find the producer and just chat. Because that was touching base and touching base? Very important.

Who: Autumn and Zale
Where: side of the road somewhere
When: around 4ish

The kids had been terrible all day today and Autumn was so tired. Before she got in the car to leave school, she shucked off her jacket and immediately sighed. She'd been warm all day, but she had to maintain a professional appearance at the school, so the jacket had stayed on. Now that she was going home though? It came right off. Autumn threw it inside before settling behind the steering wheel. "EXCUSE ME!" a little voice rang out. "Can't BREATHE HERE!" Autumn glanced over in the passenger seat and giggled because she had thrown the jacket on top of Suri. She removed the jacket and flung it into the backseat while Suri stood up and shook herself before curling back up in a huff. The kids had begged Autumn to bring Suri to school and she'd finally caved. Suri had been petted and loved all day so she was a happy puppy.

Finally pulling out of the parking lot, Autumn headed home, her thoughts a million miles away. A ways into her drive she saw a man on the side of the road with what looked to be a box or something. Her curiosity got the best of her and she pulled over, hopping out. She saw that the box contained several puppies. "Awwwww, how cute!" She grinned at the man. "You going to take one?"

Who: Zale and Nastasiya
When: about 8:00pm
Where: outside Cherryblossom Place
What: New puppies and Hollywood

( Isn't he adorable? )

Who: Freddie, Renard and Amadeus thrown in completely free!
When: Late morning
Where: Phonelines, Renard's bedroom at his aunt's house

Renard had wanted to see Freddie the day before, but he didn't want to seem like a loser or like he was desperate. So he didn't call her the day after they met and instead wondered if she'd call him. She hadn't just yet, but by the day after the full moon, Renard was feeling the effects of the rain he'd walked in. He couldn't stop sneezing and coughing and probably didn't look all that attractive, but she had promised to bring him some soup if he got sick. So Renard grabbed his new cellphone and dialed in Freddie's number, listening quietly to the ringing on the other end and wondering if she'd even pick up. Had he given her the cell number? Would she know it was him? "You're a doof." he muttered to himself, sounding just slightly congested. "She was probably just bein' nice."

( And bring your very polite familiar with you )

Who: Ben and Amelia
Where: Amelia's house
When: afternoon

( No. Way. )

Who: Liliya and Nic
Where: Some random sidewalk
When: Late evening

From the moment that she had picked up that newspaper Liliya had known that today was going to be terrible. And she had been right. There had been one mildly decent thing about the whole day and that was a vampire who actually had a brain inside of his head. Those were amazingly rare outside of her own family these days. Unfortunately her one goal of the day, a simple and utterly reachable goal so far as she had been concerned, had not been met. She still did not know which vampire had made the attack on Amanda Blake. Likely she would have to talk to the girl herself and that would probably never happen. If there was anyone as bad as Calvert it was his wife-to-be and Liliya had enough of a headache already and a serious craving for some angelic blood.

Which was why she was walking home instead of driving. No, it was not faster, but at least walking meant that she would not have to deal with the reporters that had been trying to corner her throughout the day. Being the open vampire that she was - and regretted more with every passing day - meant that when anything happened with vampires everyone wanted her opinion. Calvert did not even have to say anything for questions to fly about. Questions that should not have even been thought, much less voiced aloud. Liliya was fuming as she practically stalked the streets on her way home, just wanting to be left alone until she found Naoki.

Who: Graham and Jezebelle
Where: Jezebelle's home
When: 2... 3am? They lost track

Apparently finally catching Jezebelle meant he got to stay the night at her place, which Graham was all for. How could he say no to that? The vampire was doing all sorts of things to him that it was hard to part from her. Jezebelle had given him the first chance to experience what it was like murdering someone, or at least having a hand in that, and frankly, the fire elemental loved it. At least the blowing up the car part. He wasn't sure if he could kill people with a gun or knife or other means, but death by fire seemed like a good way to go. And while he stood in the shower, hot water splashing over his pale form, he couldn't get rid of the voice in his head that was begging to do it all over again.

Once he was washed up, Graham returned to Jezebelle in her bedroom, clad in only a towel clinging around his waist. Plopping down next to her, he ran a hand across her back, hoping the scratches they had found there were doing better. Was hard to worry about injuries when in the heat of the moment, and it seemed like the last thing a vampire would ever worry about was a tree. Graham leaned in to kiss her neck sweetly before smoothing a hand over her hair. "Is it fucked up to say that I had fun tonight?" Because sex aside, the whole thrill of the murder was one of the biggest rushes Graham had in a long time. He even opted out of taking a hit of coke that evening due to already being doped up on his own self-induced high.

Who: Torque and Toni
When: Early Morning
Where: Near the packlands
Warning: NSFW


Toni was pissed. She'd gone for an early morning run, itching to stretch her legs and get in a good workout in her mountain lion form before work, and after getting redressed and back into her car and driving back in the direction of home for her shower, her car decided it would be a good time to overheat. Too bad she didn't have any bottled water to pour in the damn thing. Getting out of the car and straightening her tank top, she angrily popped the hood and opened it up, propping it open with the little bar and leaning back as the smoke flumed upwards. "Motherfucker." she muttered to the car. "Couldn't you have waited til I at least got to work?" Once enough smoke cleared away, she leaned over the hood, letting out a breath and looking over the engine to see if there was anything else wrong. Too bad she didn't know jack about cars. "I knew I should have brought my cell phone."

( You're starting to sound like me. Fumbled up words translate from Trip-speak into 'I think you're hot when you're naked' )

Who: Jessa and Madock
When: Morning
Where: The Weiss barn



When the light of morning flicked through the rafters across his face, Madock stirred a little, eyes peeking open just slightly. He felt sore. More sore than he'd ever felt in his entire life. But, as he glanced around and tried to wake himself up more, he was still in the cage and that was the first good thing that had happened in a long time. Of course he was also naked and he didn't quite like that particular part of being in the cage. The shorts he'd been wearing the night before were in shreds in one corner of the cage and reaching for them, he pressed them to his front to at least be a little less naked. Once he'd taken care of that, he looked around the outside of the cage. "Jessa?" he breathed, hoping she was around. He needed to see her.

( You can't be near me when I'm like that )
