Thanks for the warm welcome! Sure, were-tigers sound fine to me =) I think it would be interesting to see if we could get some human players, or even a few humans who know about vampires and the like and have turned into hunters in here as well. But I'm willing to start up now if you'd like too. Here's some Tess and Vince plot-moving in the meantime: *********************** Daniel Vincent Lancaster (or Vince, as he was so apt to call himself) opened his eyes at 7:30 a.m. exactly. Although he didn't technically need sleep, it was still nice to go through the motions. Sitting up and rolling off of his floor mattress, he cracked his neck and stretched out sore muscles. He still found it strange that a vampire should feel sore in the mornings when getting up... he'd felt somewhat cheated when he'd realized that his kind could still feel pain, discomfort, and other petty annoyances. Tess was still asleep, of course, and seemed to be having a bad dream no less. Making his way over to the bathroom, he rolled out his shoulder and looked at himself in the smeared and dingy mirror. A familiar pale face stared back from under messy dark hair. There were times he wished he COULD sleep. He could use with the mental break every so often. He heard a sound from the other room and turned his head slightly as Tess woke up. ****** Tess shot out of bed, panting and wild. It took her a few moments to remember where she was. They'd moved into this shoddy excuse for a house barely a month ago, and she was still having trouble adjusting to the cold. It sneaked in through the cracks in the walls all too easily. Vince was giving her a bemused look from the restroom. He was already dressed in a white collared shirt and black jeans complete with black boots. He looked like he'd been ready to leave all night, and Tess was sure she looked like Hell with her hair in tangles and bags under her eyes. "Morning, sunshine." "Come on," Vince said, rolling his eyes and tossing Tess some clothing. "We need to scope out this town sometime this century." Tess grumbled something or other back at him and began to get dressed. The mundane movements of the day were just enough to distract her. The walk through town was miserable. Tess appreciated the leaves, which were gorgeous explosions of color in an otherwise dismal town. She knew though, that soon they would lay trodden by snow-covered boots beneath a layer of snow. She detested the winter. ****** Vince loved the winter. It was, hands-down, his favorite season. The walk through town was a secluded one, since they'd managed to find a place farther away from the heart of it. In the back of his mind, Vince wondered if the people here would be any different than the ones he and his sister had encountered across the world. Although he knew he wasn't supposed to care, he couldn't help being disappointed at how petty and ridiculous humans were. Tess often reminded him that he, too, had been human not long ago, but it still bothered him. It seemed as if there were no people left in the world who could comprehend hardship, determination, honesty, or even muster up a hard day's work. Cellphones and MySpace were the addictions of the now, and Vince found that the girls in particular brought the greatest distaste to him. Although the meat-head jocks weren't much better. They neared a somewhat sad and dilapidated building. Vince's eyes raked the facility up and down. Paint was peeling off the wall and some lude graffiti was being painted over by a surly looking youth. It wasn't what he would call poverty, but it certainly could use some attention from the DOE. "Are we going to be students in this town?" Vince asked in a whisper to Tess. Tess gave him a withering look that said, "Do we have to?" to which Vince laughed. He had to admit, going to school was probably their easiest choice... but it DID get mundane after a while. ****** |
