Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

Aly was slightly taken aback when he simply abandoned the bar in her favour, but it was the pleasant sort of surprise. Her smile grew wider as she looked up into his eyes and caught a look in there that reminded her of her own ideas for the night. “Definitely,” she murmured as she fisted her hand in the fabric of his shirt and pulled him in until his hips were pressed to her knees. The stool gave her just the right amount of height to place her eyes barely an inch or two below his, and from here the scent of his cologne almost overpowered that of the wolf. “What are some of the services you offer on this side of the bar?”

Aside from the sickly sweet scent cloying at his nose, Jared couldn't complain about "Kelsey"s reaction. He had always liked them a bit bold - it just meant they could keep up with him - and this one certainly wasn't shy. At her question, a taunting smile appeared on his lips as he leaned in so that his lips barely brushed her ear, then spoke in a whisper he knew only she could hear. "Many more than I could tell you right now. Trust me, the list could keep you up all night."

look alive; clarisse & jared

Clarisse didn’t think people would run in the woods. She didn’t see a trail as she was coming in, so she assumed that nobody really bothered to go out and venture into the woods. Especially not as far as she was. If people really did jog through the woods, she needed to pick a new spot to train, considering she could expose herself to the wrong kind. She looked the male up and down, an opinion of him already forming. “You don’t quite strike me as the running in the woods type,” she commented. “And you’re alone? Hmm, I’d be careful if I were you. You could’ve been turned into a bored girl’s target.”

It was like this girl wanted to see how far she could push him, and Jared found himself simultaneously grateful and irritated that his wolf was currently so dormant. He didn't appreciate what he took as a thinly veiled threat, and he was tempted to purposely wake his wolf just to teach this girl a lesson. He wouldn't change, because that would be stupid (and physically impossible), but he was able to bring just enough of the wolf out in his personality that this girl would realize her mistake. He wasn't going to yet, but he kept the option open for if she kept pushing his buttons. "I'm sorry, how can you possibly tell what kind of 'type' I am from a thirty second conversation?" He crossed his arms. "And even though you can apparently," he looked at the knives scattered around the tree, "kind of throw knives, I have a feeling I can take care of myself a bit better than a little girl."

Looking for Trouble || Alana & Jared

Alana shrugged her shoulders lightly to brush off her unpopular request. “I’m surprised you actually knew what was in it. That’s alright, just make a buttery nipple.” Winking at him, she leaned back in her seat and watched the wheels turn in his teenie little doggie brain. His confusion was almost palpable. She could practically hear him trying to figure out what she was trying to tell him. Do demons really exist? No, they’re just myth aren’t they? Well, werewolves are myth, but they exist. Maybe she’s a demon? But wait, she doesn’t have horns. She can’t be a demon. “Maybe if you’re lucky I’ll close the place out and teach you a few new drinks.”

Jared shrugged a shoulder, his confident smirk across his lips. He had always taken pride in knowing as many drinks as he could, the more obscure the better. It was something that could take up his time, and he found he enjoyed learning the recipes. Probably the only thing in his whole life he had enjoyed learning. Jared got the ingredients together for her shot, the wheels still turning in his head. He couldn't figure out a way to confirm what this girl was without asking her directly, and he didn't want to do that yet. He chuckled. "Oh, I don't know if you want to stay around until closing, it'll be a while. But we probably won't get much busier than this, and it'll die down almost completely soon enough. And then I would love to see if there's anything you can teach me."

look alive; clarisse & jared

Clarisse watched him as he put a hand in his pocket, expecting a knife or a blade of sorts to be thrown at her. It may have been the fact that she distrusts most people that caused her to expect that, but she had always thought of it as being wise. Not being properly trained, she didn’t know what would happen and what she would face. Her doe like eyes narrowed at the stranger as he asked his question. “Relieving my boredom,” she lied, a fake smile playing on her light pink lips. “What are you doing running through the woods?”

This girl was on edge about something, Jared could feel it. He was just glad that they were still so close to the new moon - if the wolf had been any stronger, he would have had an internal battle about turning this girl into a chase. Again, he did his best to quell those thoughts. The thoughts that made him feel less human. Though he enjoyed the power and strength that came with being a wolf, he hated that his humanity seemed to be slowly leaving him; he was worried about what would remain. "I'm just running." He motioned down to the ribbed tank and basketball shorts he was wearing. "You know, exercise? I prefer being surrounded by trees instead of buildings." Yet another side effect of his wolf. Before the incident, he was perfectly happy in the city.

Clarisse eyed the male as he approached her, her eyes narrowing at the sight of him. She didn’t think people would be out in the woods, assuming that most would spend their time at the mall or the various theaters Little Rock had to offer. She easily became suspicious of the stranger, even more so than every other person in town. “Just a girl who enjoys throwing knives at trees. Got a name, then?” She asked, keeping her arms to her side and running a finger along the flat of the blade of her knife.

Jared had no idea what this girl's deal was, but she seemed really jumpy. Jared could feel the wolf stir deep in his mind, sensing what seemed like a fun hunt, but he quickly silenced it. He hated that part of his new existence. Attempting to appear as nonthreatening as possible, he slowly put his iPod and earbuds back in his pocket, then kept his hands where she could see them. "I'm Jared. I ain't judging, but whatchya doin', throwing knives at trees?"

look alive; clarisse & jared

Clarisse was in the clearing of a forested area by the river, with her hunting gear on the ground and her hand holding a few knives. Choosing a pine tree as a target, she put the knives on one hand and started to throw them at the tree. A few missed, but some dug into the tree. Kicking the dirt with the heel of her boot, she heard a twig snap just near her, and her head instantly turned toward the source. “Who’s there?” She called.

Jared found he enjoyed the woods more than he had before the incident, even when he could barely even feel the wolf inside him. He hated the time of the month when there was no or almost no moon in the sky, because that was when he felt the weakest. Still, running through the woods always made him feel at least a little better, especially with his workout mix blaring in his ears. He must have forgotten to put it on repeat though, because the song ended and another one did not start playing automatically. As he pulled the device out of his pocket to find the problem, he heard a repetitive thunking noise just ahead of him. He walked forward to investigate, when the smell of human wafted through his nose just as she called out. He took the earbuds out to approach the clearing. "Just a guy who enjoys running through the woods. Who are you?" He couldn't help but take note of the knife in her hand, and the others in a tree not too far ahead of her.

Looking for Trouble || Alana & Jared

Alana pushed her empty shot glass towards the wolf and thought for a moment before answering. He was definitely a child, but then again most people were children compared to her. Seemingly lacking in knowledge, the puppy gave her a source of amusement. On the one hand, she could keep him guessing for an extended period of time until she finally grew bored with the game. On the other, she could throw him a bone and see just how difficult it would be for him to wrap his mind around the concept of just how many creatures there were in this world. Unable to resist the possibly hilarious reaction, she decided to go for the latter. “My pleasure cannot usually be found in a bottle, you’ll have to work your way up to learning the answer to that one. As far as a drink, though, I can narrow down my desires fairly quickly. Let’s have a Raging Demon, shall we?”

Jared cocked his eyebrow at her next request. From her body language, and her previous comments, he would think she was trying to tell him something, but demons didn't exist. Did they? Granted, a year ago he was convinced werewolves and vampires were only in literature, but demons? Yes, this girl knew way more than humans usually did. But weren't demons supposed to have horns, or at least tails, or something? He went to get the ingredients, and when he returned he noticed that the rotten egg smell seemed to be around the blonde, not the fridge. Something nearly forgotten clicked in his brain - he thought he remembered a teacher in high school telling him that sulfur smelled of rotten eggs, and he knew demons were often associated with sulfur. But this girl didn't look anything like what demons were supposed to look like. She had to be messing with him. "Raging Demon's not a popular request. I don't have the 4 Loko, but we could try it with Red Bull, if that works for you."

It was obvious to the demon that he was trying to figure out how she knew. The wolf had probably sniffed around just as she had, but he didn’t seem to know what demon smelled like. Amused, she wondered just how old this boy was, and how much he knew about the world in which he’d found himself. Even a purebred might not know about anything other than werewolves and vampires. Maybe, if he was lucky, she’d give him a lesson in supernatural beings later on. Instead of answering his question, Alana picked up the shot nearest her and raised it to him in a toast. “To the things that go bump in the night.” Without waiting on him to reciprocate, she thumped the glass on the bar and brought the drink to her lips.

What was this girl?? He noticed she didn't give her name, but he didn't really care too much. Besides, she had just made a toast to "the things that go bump in the night" - she knew. There was no doubt left in his mind. He just had to figure out how. Though he had never come in contact with another wolf after he had been scratched, he had a feeling he would know their scent from a mile away, and there was no way this girl was one. So, as far as Jared knew, that left only an incredibly knowledgeable human. But at least it was somebody who seemed to know something, which Jared had been needing for a while now. He had completely been making up all the werewolf stuff as he went along, but maybe whoever this girl was, she could help him. Or at least point him in the direction of somebody who could. He took the other shot from the counter, lifted it in acknowledgement of the toast, then thumped it on the counter and downed it. "Second round's on the house. What's your pleasure?"

She had to give him props for not acknowledging her joke. Smiling to herself, Alana contemplated the next wolf joke she could make as he walked away to search for ingredients. It had been years since she’d had one of these shots, but she would definitely know if he made it wrong. Once he returned, a triumphant look on his face, she smiled up at him and leaned against the bar. “Are you old enough to do one with me, Fido?”

Jared actually let the laugh escape this time. She had to know, Jared just didn't know how she knew. He tried to find her scent again, maybe he had been wrong. There was the general smell of the bar and bodies, but nothing out of the ordinary, except apparently some of the eggs in the fridge had gone bad. He'd have to check that later. Since he couldn't smell a corpse in the room, and he didn't know how a human would know, he decided not to confirm anything, but he would definitely be going along with this girl's game. She was too cute and the idea too enticing for him not to play. He grabbed two shot glasses from under the bar, and poured the mixture into them. "As a matter of fact, I am. And now that you've guessed my name, any chance I can get yours?"

Leaning forward, Alana smiled coyly at the boy behind the bar. He smelled different, not quite human, but unlike anything she’d smelled in quite some time. Subtly taking a deeper whiff of the boy, she realized that he smelled similar to a dog she’d passed on the street earlier. Her coy smile turned momentarily into a smirk before replacing itself on her face. “You know what would make my night? Would you happen to know how to make a wolf bite shooter? That just sounds so yummy right now.”

Jared almost chuckled at the blonde's suggestion. She didn't smell like a leech, so he had no idea whether she knew what he was, but requesting that drink from him, of all people, was too ironic not to be acknowledged. Sadly, though he may not be the sharpest crayon, he was smart enough not to say anything to a stranger. Laughing internally would have to do. "Let me see if we have any absinthe for ya." He went to the liquor stock, finally finding a bottle in the back of the shelf. Setting it triumphantly in front of the girl, he gathered the other ingredients quickly and began mixing her shot.

A seemingly pleasant smile spread across Alana’s face as she walked down Main Street. It had been a successful day of shopping, and she’d even made a sales girl cry. The demon was in a surprisingly good mood, and she could only imagine it getting better with her tentative plans for the evening. The sun had set a little over an hour ago, and she’d changed into a slinky blue dress with lace sleeves. Of course she was over dressed for her destination, but it didn’t matter so long as her goal was accomplished. Pushing open the door to Midtown, she sauntered in and sat down at the bar.

It had been a pretty boring night at the bar. It was middle of the week, so there weren't many customers, especially so early in the evening. Jared was starting to regret not calling out of his shift as he was drying some glasses when he saw a pretty blonde walk in and take a seat on one of the stools. A charming smile spread across his face as he set down the glass and towel, walking over to the newcomer. "And what can I do for you?"

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

Aly was slowly growing used to the scent wafting off him. It was still slightly off-putting, but his eyes were doing a good job of tearing down that barrier. He didn’t feel dangerous to her, not beyond the point of being… exciting. Apparently her troublemaking days weren’t all in the past, at least if the tension in her stomach was any indication. Oh, how she’d love a bite of that… Down, girl. The silent game of dare was getting to her. “I don’t think you can do much from behind that counter.”

Jared's eyes sparked. He straightened up, walked to the grill to ask Damien to cover for him, and moved around the bar to stand right next to her. He looked down to meet her gaze, the mischievous glint still in his eye. "Is this better for you?" He knew he was playing a dangerous game - there had to be a reason his first instinct was one of revulsion - but at this point he couldn't be bothered. He would just have to be careful.

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

Blake seemed pleased with his name, more or less. She couldn’t be bothered to care much either way, beyond the fact that he’d accepted it. Alyx held his gaze as he leaned down and a mischievous spark ghosted her eyes. She had no idea how much he knew, both of his own kind and of hers. Maybe he was aware of things that she wasn’t… But as far as she was concerned, he was a potential danger. A thrill ride. She could hear Nate’s voice telling her to back off, go home.

Nate. Same one who hadn’t called in a week now. So much for his authority over her. “You look like you have something in mind.”

Jared smiled. Yes, this chick was one of the undead and the too-sweet smell of death was staying in his sensitive nose, but she was also really cute and honestly, small enough that Jared didn't feel that threatened by her. Besides, he had to admit he was interested to see how far she was willing to take things. "Oh, nothin' in particular. You're just too pretty for me to walk away without making sure you are completely satisfied."

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

Aly had only ever ran into one werewolf before and even then they’d barely exchanged a glance before Nate was tugging her away. She knew that they were dangerous and that put her on edge, but on the other hand, if he wasn’t being aggressive.. Well, why pass up a good flirt? “Kelsey? That’s new. I could like that.” She nodded a little. “And you could be a…” The girl gave him a once-over under the cover of gauging his name. “Blake. How’s that?”

Jared couldn't help but let out a full chested laugh as the bloodsucker in front of him - Kelsey, for the time being - offered his new name. "Blake, hm? That could work for me. We'll go with that." He leaned on his forearms on the bar so that he could be eye level with her. "Are you sure there's nothing else I can do for you?" He asked, adding a wink at the end.

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

He smelt like freshly dug earth, the scent raw, heavy, overpowering. While Aly felt a natural aversion to the combination, the conscious part of her thought it a rather amusing contrast to his appearance and job. But maybe she was just used to thinking of his kind as brutes, and of her own as the proper city dwellers. Something she clearly had to rethink in light of recent events. She gave him a small, lopsided smile as he put the full glass down. Another funny thing was how he already knew more about her than most folks ever would, and they hadn’t even exchanged their names. Which could easily be a lot of fun… “I don’t know.” The girl shrugged. “You tell me. I could be an Alice or a Jane… Bonus points for creativity.”

To be honest, Jared's only interaction with a vampire before this had been Zea, He didn't have anything against them personally, except for the smell. And this one seemed to be flirting with him. It had always been difficult for Jared to turn down a cute girl, especially one who was offering such a tantalizing game. He smirked, then scratched his chin while he thought. "Hmm...you strike me as a, Kelsey?"

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

The tension seemed to go out of his posture a little, and Aly permitted herself a smile. He didn’t feel openly threatening, it was more like a general aura of danger, and given the amount of people around, she wasn’t about to go on the defensive. As far as precautions went, she would just have to skip the whole ‘when does your shift end’ part… Pity. The girl took a draught of her drink as she gave the menu some thought, but decided that burgers and rum didn’t really go that well together. “I’ll have to take a raincheck on that burger, but I could use a refill.” And she slid her freshly emptied glass in his direction.

He nodded. Even though the smell of death was stuck in his nose, he couldn't help but notice that she was kinda cute. It was just too bad that she was a corpse. He smiled at her anyway, taking her empty glass from the counter. "Why, of course." He poured more rum into her glass and set it down on a fresh napkin in front of her. "So, who do I have the pleasure of helping tonight?"

Look Behind You ;; Aly + Jared

A sudden earthy smell flooded Alyx and for a moment startled her. It had been years since she’d smelt anything quite like it, and even then Nate had been quite… laconic in his explanations. He’d told her it was associated with werewolves and that it meant trouble. But as her gaze found the tall, blue-eyed boy in front of her, the flight instinct had some serious competition. Still, she couldn’t help but tense a little. “That depends. What’s on the menu?”

Jared smirked, tempted to make some joke, but he still wasn't sure how to read this girl. She didn't feel like Zea - the other woman had dripped a predatory vibe, and this girl didn't appear to be on the hunt - but she was still a leech. He decided to opt for the actual menu. ""We've got chicken tenders, wings, and the best burgers in town."
