@Rusalka

You fucking blew it.

Neva spoke just as dryly in return, due to her fuck-up of a first impression, she had been a bit annoyed. "Oh, nothing. I just saw you were reading Poe, who is one of my favorites. What do you think of Dream-Land?" Neva struggled to keep her eyes on the girl, she was too hard to look at, not because of her looks being bad, but because Neva wasn't courageous enough, she didn't want to ruin her hopeful future relationship with this girl. Even if they didn't become friends, the town was quite small. She was sure she would see her around.

Neva spoke once more, quoting Poe's dark poetry, even dark was a poor way to describe it "Where an Eidolon, named NIGHT, On a black throne reigns upright, I have reached these lands but newly, From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime, Out of SPACE—Out of TIME."

"...Suddenly, there came a tapping, as if someone gently rapping. Rapping at my chamber door."

Well if they were going to sit here and quote Poe, then she might as well have shared one of her own, a cynical edge as she uttered the famous line before taking one last drag of her cigarette and snuffing it under her foot. "I heard you rapping alright, creampuff. You really wanna sneak up on me, try another approach." And with that, she snatched up her bag and her hard case beside her feet, shoving her way past...whoever this chick was. "By the way." She paused on her way out. "You know a good coffee shop that ain't dominated by fake ass hipsters?"

Kovu climbed up the shelves making books scatter on the floor. This was something she did a lot just for fun. Once on top she made every book on the shelf below fall. Kovu didn't see the two women when she let the books fall off the bookcase next to them.

@Rusalka@Whitewind

"Hey watch out!" Kovu said as the books thankfully missed the two women maybe at least startling them.

@Rusalka@Demonic Angel
Neva spoke, "Yeah, there is. It's usually empty, emphasis on usually though." she spoke once more, "I'm Neva... nice to meet you." she had wondered if Will would be angry she was abandoning him.. She then thought, Wait.. I just met that dude, why should I care? And I might actually not strike out with someone for once..

She jumped as the books hit the ground, making a loud clapping noise that echoed throughout the once-silent library. She got angry and looked upwards, "JUST WHAT DO YOU-... oh." she saw the girl's petite appearance and shocked look, "I'm sorry, but did you just intentionally try and kill me? With a book of all things?" she felt discontent and awaited the girl just met's response, probably anger along with hers.

@Letmehaveone2
"The park sounds good." Ayaka started walking toward the park knowing Arin would follow.

@Ninkitty
Arin held her hand as he walked beside her.

---

After the girl(Kovu) left, Virgil went over to an empty bench and sat down.

---

Jonathan stood outside the bar, wondering if anyone was still around. Maybe there's people inside. He thought as he entered the building, hoping he was right.

---

Guitar in hand, Price arrived at the park and chose another empty to sit down on before playing a soft tune on his guitar.

@Whitewind

@Demonic Angel

"Ev." A curt response she issued before walking away, but damned she be for not seeing what happened next.

She didn't hear the voice warning her, but indeed she felt the thick spine and hard cover of the book smack her in the face, in a sense of irony a Bible of all things bloodying her nose. "Oww..fuck!" Loudly and bitter she groaned caressing her bloody nose, whirling around quickly as her voice took on...what could only be described as the snarl of a hell hound, crimson eyes burning towards the miserable whelp perched at the top of the bookshelf. "DID YOU JUST THROW A FUCKING BOOK AT ME YOU BITCH?"

Kovu climbed down in between them still in her form. The people around them started whispering her name to make sure others aware of who she was. Everyone checking their pockets making sure they had everything in case they need to bribe their way out.

@Whitewind
"Actually that was my fault. I was just knocking down the books for a bit of fun and didn't notice you two. If I was going to kill you I'd use something that would work better. For example my knife."she said while she turned her head.

@Rusalka
" I did warn you so really it's not my fault. Its called a feak accident." Kovu said in an innocent voice.

@Letmehaveone2
Ayaka walked while holding Arin's hand. The two of them soon arrived at the park. She decided to start walking down a path.

@Ninkitty
As they walked, Arin thought he heard the faint sound of a guitar. He smiled as he looked for the source, bringing his gaze to a man playing guitar on a bench. "Hey, look over there. Do you think he'd mind us listening?" He said.

---

Price closed his eyes indicating he was content. He continued strumming his guitar, it was the only thing that kept him at peace.

---

Virgil leaned back against the bench he was sitting on, he let his eyes scan the park. He saw a two people who looked like a couple walking down a path. His gaze then shifted to the one playing guitar. Hey, that guy's pretty good. He thought to himself. He decided to listen from where he was.

---

Sighing, Jonathan went back outside the bar and began walking down the city sidewalk once again.

@Whitewind@Demonic Angel

An accident, sure it was. Well, maybe this cat wouldn't mind accidentally having the skin flayed off her bones slowly and crucified to the wall next time she pulled her shit. Clenching her fists, Evelyn could only glare at her with the fury broiling inside her glowing, blood red eyes. "Psh, yeah, a freak accident, since it was caused by a freak!" She snarled, the blood trickle slowly creeping back into her nose, a bit painful really. "Do that again, kitty kat, I'll make you beg for death!"

@Whitewind

"And you." She turned to the other girl, still a bit incensed by having her face caved in by a book. "....See you around." Evelyn sighed, once more picking up her things and leaving. Out into the streets she trudged, out into that fucking unforgiving sunlight. She had forgotten to ask where that coffee shop was, but really no directions were necessary since...well, it was just across the street. Careless, Evelyn ventured over, ignoring the shrill honk of a car horn and the shout of "Hey bitch, get the fuck out of the way!" The shop wasn't much, just your typical artsy, jazzy kind of place. Only a few people residing within. She sighed, taking her seat by the window in one of the corner booths, ordering a small caramel macchiato and a tomato and avocado sandwich on lightly toasted bread. At least there was some good music playing over the speakers of the joint, something to calm her nerves after her little episode. She couldn't help it; she's always had these issues.

Kovu watched the girl walked out. She was already aware she was a freak. The flawed DNA in her had proved it time and time again. It wasn't Kovu's fault that it was a curse that her father's side received from a witch. She shift back to human then sort of glared at the other one with a ticked off look.

@Whitewind

" Anything else you would like to add?" She said while raising an eyebrow.

@Letmehaveone2
"We could go ask him." Ayaka suggested. Listening play the guitar did sound like fun. "Or find a place nearby to just to listen."

@Demonic Angel@Rusalka

James's voice spoke up from nowhere as he once again appeared in a swirling distortion of space, sitting on the floor. "I think someone who is able to use blood magic and not become crippled for life is a bigger freak than someone who is cursed to turn into a little cub, which is adorable, by the way." Of course he recognized it as a curse. As a living portal, he knew many things, seeing as he had to be able to see pretty much everything in order to know where to appear so he doesn't get stuck in a wall.

@arowne97

"I seem to be at a disadvantage here. You know my last name and my situation. Plus my job. May I ask two things? One how do you know these things and two you got a beer?" Kovu asked a bit hopeful for the second.

@Rusalka

"Hey, wait!" Neva called as Ev exited the building, she looked and growled at the little cub. Neva ran off, trying to catch up to her, but she was too fast and made it into the coffee shop before she had. Neva groaned, but was hopeful. She hadn't been threatened to be killed just yet, so that was nice. She didn't want to deal with the passing of the cars, so she skated around the busy road through alleyways and such.

She walked into the coffee shop, the soft music playing in her ears. ♪ Well fortune favors not the young. ♪
Neva saw Ev, and slid into the booth she sat in, in front of her.
"I'm sorry for that, the residents of this town are less than nice usually, I mean I've basically almost died twice today, and you seem dangerous. Why not make it three?" she grinned slyly and waited for someone to run around for her order.

@Ninkitty
While still holding Ayaka's hand, Arin went to stand somewhere close enough to not just listen, but to be within earshot of the vampire.

---

Price looked up at the couple and paused for a bit so say, "Hello." He then started strumming his guitar again.

---

"Hi, hope you don't mind us listening." Arin said with a friendly smile.

---

"Nah, I don't mind." Price continued playing his guitar.

@Demonic Angel
"Well, to answer your questions in order, I know many things, and I always have a beer." The second bottle of whiskey from earlier appeared out of nowhere in his hand.

@arowne97

"I really need to learn that trick. How do you know my family?" Kovu asked while she leaned on the table.

"As I said before, I know many things." He opened the bottle. "Well, I guess it helps that I'm pretty much a living portal so I can be anywhere I want whenever I want." He took a sip of the whiskey straight from the bottle, before holding it out to her. "Want any?"
