{V:tM - IC} New York by Night

[KitanaVorr]

Caitlyn slid gracefully into a seat, brushing down the silky blue fabric of her dress while she listened to Max talk about himself. Her eyes watched him intently, dark chocolate orbs filled with warmth and interest.

"Wow, you're from Sydney? I've never been to Austrailia before but it sounds like a fascinating place." She matches his smile with a friendly one of her own. "I haven't really been anywhere outside the States. I'm afraid I'm rather uncultured to the international way of life."

Shrugging at his question about her, she laughed a little. "Well, there's not much to say about me. Girl from a big southern city comes to the big northern city to try and start up a songwriting career. Sings in a band to pay the rent on an apartment that is insanely too expensive." She shook her head. "Sometimes I think our landlord must be a complete monster with the way he's always pinching pennies and demanding more rent. Thank god our apartment is rent-controlled."

 

[Festy_Dog]

A monster, how true she is

"Well I've got a bit of influence with the landlord, I'll see what I can do for you," Max says.

The child is long gone. Hmm, who would have embraced a child? Yech, they'd need a good kick to the spine, or a walk into a furnace.

"So, wanna meet anyone else here? You might have seen my ex before, she's just over there. Have you met here?" he asks.

 

[KitanaVorr]

Her eyes light up at his offer. "If you can swing it so that crusty old landlord gets around to fixing my dishwasher, my roommate and I'll owe you a genuine homecooked meal...well, more her than me. I'm not much of a cook."

Caitlyn glances over to where he was pointing at. "Your ex? I don't think I've met her. She's a very beautiful woman, though. So is it a good or bad thing that I haven't met your ex?" Her lips quirked slightly in amusement.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Woot! Good thing I can still eat.

"No need to worry, we're still friends, she just wanted me to come along to this get together of hers," he says.

Sweet, this is all going smooth.

Should she not disagree, Max leads Caitlyn over to Morgan's table.

"Caitlyn, meet Morgan. Morgan, meet Caitlyn," he says.

 

[KitanaVorr]

Caitlyn extends her hand toward Morgan, offering it along with a friendly smile. Wow she is a beauty, blonde and perfect.

"How do you do? I'm Caitlyn Tran, the vocalist and part-time guitarist for the Kindred Knights. I hope our performance was pleasing for you."

 

[Ashrem Bayle]

Foregoing the couch, Gabriel walked over and stood by Valentine.

"Evening Val. I trust you are doing ok?"

 

[Jemal]

OOC: *L* After my last post I checked and saw that Kitana had posted, so i read her post.
Everytime after that that I checked it , it said "Last post: Kitanavorr", so I assumed it was still the same post.. Little did I know that that only meant she and festy had hijacked the thread.. *L*
Sorry bout that everyone, You know what they say "When you assume, you make an A$$ out of U and ME"
Also, if anyone else wants to talk to someone, go ahead (NPC or PC...), I'll RP the other half of NPCs for you, and the Prince won't be doing anything till Catulle gets back, so we've got time to kill.
Um.. er.. uh.. hmm considering the 'guests' at this party those words aren't very encouraging, are they?

IC:
(Little backtrack)
As Max siddles up to distract the mortal, Jemal watches him glance at the child, and when his eyes come back up, gives him a small nod of gratitude for taking care of Caitlyn.. but can't help feel a bit jealous.. Oh well, he's got a sister to take care of right now.

Excusing himself politely and nonobtusively, he takes Sabrina on a 'walk', hoping to make this quick so he doesn't miss the prince.

(Current Time)
Jemal walks along with Sabrina, wondering what to feed her for her first time, and whether he'll be able to keep her from draining it completely. Did he dare risk one of his herd?

"So, what kind of food are you hungry for now? Chinese? French? classic american? Italian? We'll just have to grab a quick bite to eat." Jemal smiles slightly as they exit the building to look for a meal.

 

[Shalimar]

Sabrina

"uh, I'm not hungry." The girl said sounding confused by the talk of food, and ethnicity. "I'm just thirsty, why couldn't we have just had someone bring us some water. I mean its only polite if they have us there for any length of time. Where's their manners?" the child asked, looking quite humorous lecturing her older brother on manners.

"I do hope I can keep it down this time," the girl says sounding worried as she follows her brother. She hadn't been able to keep down anything she had drunk in the last two days, not water, not juice, not even milk. "Do you know whats wrong with me?" she inquired of her brother.

 

[Catulle]

Caitlyn, Max and Morgan


"Morgan Thepclay. A pleasure." Taking Caitlyn's hand, Morgan shook it firmly - a strength belied by the woman's slight figure. (Caitlyn - Per/Empathy - 10, 5, 5, 4 - 1 success) Morgan's eyes settled for a moment on Max a curious expression showing across her face for an instant, before she returned her attention to the singer. "I must thank you for your work - Valentine's certainly outdone himself by booking you. And your band, of course. You simply must put me in touch with your agent."

Gabriel and Valentine

"That seems rather forward, doesn't it, Mr Cross?" Valentine's craftly wink undermined the serious tone of his voice, though. "Of course 'things' are going well; but you would know that if you had arrived in time for the music." He smiled. "Quite exquisite." He cast a glance at Caitlyn, in conversation with Morgan "Is she not?"

"But less of me; you are well? I notice Aisling has yet to attend and hope nothing serious has kept her absent. Perhaps you are to represent her?"

Gabriel and Valentine

"That seems rather forward, doesn't it, Mr Cross?"

Gabriel grinned slightly.

"Of course 'things' are going well; but you would know that if you had arrived in time for the music." He smiled. "Quite exquisite." He cast a glance at Caitlyn, in conversation with Morgan "Is she not?"

Gabriel'S eyes found the beutiful singer again. He tried not to stare, but it was difficult. "Very. That is quiet a find indeed."

"But less of me; you are well? I notice Aisling has yet to attend and hope nothing serious has kept her absent. Perhaps you are to represent her?"

"I am fine. Things couldn't be better." His grin turned into a grimmace. "Unfortunatly, I haven't seen Ms. Sturbridge tonight. If she doesn't show, I'm sure she has her reasons." He gave Valentine a look as if to say that Tremere business wasn't something that need concern him. However, he quickly resumed a more light hearted air.

"I suppose, if she doesn't attend, I will represent the House Tremere." He looked around, and the only other Tremere in the room was Nikolai. He seemed distracted by Qadir however, and was too young to represent the clan. Even if Gabriel himself was newly embraced, he had several months on Nikolai.
