Witches brew and vampire stew
The night was dark, fat, tired, storm clouds filled the sky, their bellies heavy with rain and rumbling with thunder. The wind howled like a thounsand angry demons theough the streets on the upperclass part of town. Normally, a night like tonight would have been a peaceful blessing for the tall, young gothic witch. But normally she would have been home wrapped in a cozy blanket, sitting safe and warm in her living room with a mug of hot coco. But not tonight.
Tonight she had been (begrudgingly) convinced by a client to go out, to attend his Soirée. With it now over the young woman dressed in far too little to be safe and warm on her journey home, had to seek shelter from the rapidly approaching storm. Violet gave an exhasperated groan and quickly stalked through back alleys and side streets looking for somewhere that seemed peaceful.
She was about to give up hope as thunder roared overhead and lightning filled the sky with momentary flashes of brilliant light and crawl into the next open place she could find, when a bar caught her eye. It looked....warm. Beautifully decorated woods, reds, velvets, and the smell of something hot and savory made her stomach growl. Something about the place urged her to seek refuge within.
So she did. Making quock work of the wide street, long legs in high silver heels clicked delicately across the pavement, and just as the young woman entered the rain came down in sheets. The storm just missing her. She shuddered and wandered in, pulling the sheer black velvet shawl around herself a bit tighter as she stepped into the warmth of the bar.
People turned to look at her, a few gave approving nods of whistles and her face lit up. She scowled and made her way as quickly and quietly as she could to a sollitary and currently unoccupied stool near the end of the bar. At the curve where only one person could sit. She staked her claim on the seat and sighed, leaning on her forearms. Then...she saw something that made her do a triple take.
A vampire. A vampire in broad daylight er nightlight er...barlight? Whatever, he was standing behind the bar serving drinks. Did...was anyone aware of him? She scabned the area and it didnt seem like they were wise to the night stalker. He must have been hiding himself. But...well then, it must not work on her. She saw things others didnt, but never in a million years would she have thought that a glamour wouldnt have worked on her. She supposed there were still things about herself she’d yet to learn. Magic was funny like that, never becoming fully realized to one, ever. Well, this was certianly an oppertunity for the ages. Maybe shed get a chance to pick his brain......
