Standing in front of a mirror she was looking at the way she looked. Her red hair was cut to her shoulder and she had a child like bob-line, she was wearing her favorite red sweater and a jeans skirt that ended just above her knees. her black heel less shoes were what completed it. "You have to go out now" she told herself. She was at her room in the most ghost like house of Cat a place she hardly ever came anymore. But there were not that many places she could go. OK Damon had said she could stay with him but she did not really know where here was. OK she could go to her room at Chrystal's place but she did not really like being there since she and Cody had broken up. The Barn at the Rune place was nice but there was no mirror there. Maybe she should try to find a small room or barn somewhere else.
She looked at the door and sat down on her bed. She did not like to go out but still she knew she had too. Taking her white jacket she smiled. She had a family now and a sire, it was still strange to her to t hink about him that way.
Damon, he was her teacher and friend. she wanted him to be proud of her that she was going out and try to hunt. she rose again opened the door and walked out into the street keeping a low profile as she came to a strange place that looked nice ad she went inside. A table in the back was something she spotted on entree and she walked there and sat down. She was nervous and really new to all of this so she just sat and looked at the other vampires and humans there. *Maybe i better go back, what if someone sees me* she thought to herself but she remained seated looking at everyone trying to be invisible.

'Can we go out?' Seth asked, he was bored as hell with Dravin staying in his room again. 'Tired of staring at the Tower.'
"I suppose...keep you from bugging me. Would tell you to go alone but you may get to drunk to find your way home and then we'd be in trouble. We can't stay apart that long." Dravin said, he straighten his shirt and grabbed his cane before heading out of his room. He made his way out of the Tower. "At least I take it for granted your just wanting to waste coins on getting drunk."
'Nah, don't want to get drunk. Just a couple of glasses of whiskey and I'll stop.' Seth replied in their head. He just couldn't wait to be apart from him again. Sure they did that when they were in their room but there was only so much to do at the Tower.
Dravin walked into the pub and over to the bar. From there that's where they split from the body. Dravin looking the same as it was his body to start with. Then Seth now had his own body of sorts.
Seth sat down at the bar and got his whiskey.
Dravin on the other hand asked for a glass of wine and walked off to less crowded area. Though the only table he saw room at was where a girl was. He wondered if she was waiting for someone or if the seats were free.
He walked over to the table, "Excuse me, are these seats taken. I just want a quiet place to drink my wine." he said to her.

She was not sure what to do at the lounge. A waitress had come to her and she had ordered a glass of blood wine even if she really did not like it. So it was in front of her but she was not touching it. She was looking around when a man came in. She noticed him but then looked away again. Why she ever decided to come here was something that she did not understand at this moment. It was strange when she heard a voice and she looked up noticing the man had come to her. She looked at the empty seat at her table and then smiles shyly. “No, it is not taking, you can have it” she said thinking he wanted it to join the small group of vampires that were not far from them. Her fingers returned to the glass even if she had no intention of drinking it, as her eyes did not leave the strange male. Then he said that he just wanted to have a quite place to drink and she tensed at the idea the idea that he would join her at the table. He did not look dangerous but then again she did not really have experience with men. The only males she knew were either gay or married or both but she did not mind that. And of course there was Cody but she did not want to think about him as that always made her sad.
Being a bit bolder then she felt she then smiled at him. “My name is Amber Rose McNeil” she said but even if she wanted to extend her hand slightly after she had said it she looked back at her glass. The man was handsome but then again she believed that once a man became a vampire they seem to have this thing that made women find them handsome. she slightly smiled at her own thought. *Women should have something like that too* she thought and her hand went through her red hair. She should go out hunting but she never had and Damon did not yet have the time to take her or give her a human. She was not sure is she was going to like hunting anyway, she never really had. Vampires tasted better anyway. Especially the strong and powerful once. She did not know what was going to happen with the male but she was sure if she needed help she could call in Damon, she just hoped Carey would not come out.

"Thanks." Dravin said and sat down and took a sip of his wine. He didn't have much interest in talking to most in the pub. If went to a topic of killing and feeding then it would just make him want to leave. He was glad for staying in the Tower as that didn't happen.
"More whiskey!" Seth's voice said from over at the bar.
Dravin frowned, he was hoping Seth wasn't getting drunk. He looked to the girl he was sharing a table with when she said her name, "Well hello Amber. My name is Dravin Croft." he said. He looked over at Seth, well most people would rather not know Seth. If he stayed over there then he wouldn't have to tell her who he was. Annoying parasite? Maybe that was one way to say it. At least the parasite could leave his body for awhile making him just annoying.
He noticed she kept looking at her glass but never did drink any of it. "Is there something wrong with your drink?" he asked. He wasn't sure about offering her to get a different drink, they had just met.

"More whiskey" she heard and instantly turned her head to see who was making the noise. A man with long blond hair seem to be the source of the disturbance and she slightly shook her head. She did not really like it when it became loud. At the sound of the mans voice at her table she looked back at him. "It is a pleasure to meet you mister Croft"she said politely as her eyes then went back to her drink. Was there something wrong with her drink. Not really she did just not like wine. She never did drink alcohol holding drinks, she preferred the blood of vampires and she knew that was strange. As he then asked her for it she slightly shook her head. "It is not the drink it is me"she said as her fingers continued to play with the glass without any intention of lifting it.
The man at the bar came in her sight again and she really hoped he would not come over as she was not really sure what to make of him. so she decided to keep an eye on it so she could excuse herself if he would make an attempted. Looking back at the man at her table she smiled softly not wanting to make him aware of the uncomfortable feelings she got from the man at the bar. "Do you often come into this lounge"she asked trying to make a conversation something she was not really good at.

"Oh no need to call me by my last name. Dravin will do." Dravin said to Amber as he also kept an eye on Seth to make sure he would stay over at the bar and not join him. He finished off his wine and set the cup aside.
He wasn't too sure why she wasn't drinking her drink. He wondered why she got it if she did not want to drink it.
"No, I don't come here that often." Dravin said, "Might be so I don't get hit by Chiru or anyone else related to Aneres." Chiru did after all own the Lounge, it would only be expected to find family members like that. Not that he was related but they were related to Aneres. He was an out sider no matter how you looked at it. "Its just a...friend of mine was tried of staying home and sadly we can't be apart for very long or we might get hurt." He wondered how long they could go apart, the first time they were apart it wasn't long but as they kept apart within the Tower it became longer and longer. Maybe sooner or later they'd be able to go a day.
Seth walked over to the table, "Hey Dravin, can I get some more money." he said at first but then looked at Amber. "Ah who did you find?"
Dravin sighed softly and closed his eyes for a moment. "This is Amber. and I'm not giving you any money."
"Aww but they gave me whiskey with blood in it and they made me pay for their mistake. Not everyone is a vampire." Seth said, crossing his arms. Sure he gave it to some vampire girl but had to move away, she was looking at his neck too much. He wasn't sure if he even had blood, Dravin has sand.
"I have to say normal wine and not blood wine." Dravin replied, "Go find something to do that doesn't get you into trouble." he added.
"Fine fine. I'll leave you alone." Seth said and walked off outside. He'd find someway to get some money.
Dravin sighed again before looking at Amber. "Sorry about him. Not many like him." he said. "He's annoying and rude at times." They had been friends for a long time but what Seth did to the Aneres after her parents had died wasn't overly forgivable, he was sure she hadn't forgave either one of them. He was pretty sure Aneres even though a baby at the time when Seth was killed was the one to save him by putting his soul into Dravin's body. So Seth should have owed her a lot. It was alright for awhile but sharing a body was annoying. He hoped maybe they would get so good at being apart that they would only have to join together every so many months, maybe once a year. Now that would be great. Maybe he wouldn't be such an outsider then...maybe.
He looked at the door for a moment, wondering what Seth would be up to but thought it better not to think about it.

OOC: Was not sure on how to join the thread. Sorry if My rp is off I am a bit rusty.
IC: Delirium walked toward the city streets dressed in her usual revealing attire. Black muscle shirt and red short shorts with her guns strapped to her thighs. Her small mowhak fell over her red eyes as she pulled out a pack of cigarettes and drew one to her lips. Running her fingers through her semi bawled head she struck a match and lit her cigarette inhaling a long drag to light it. "mmmm the cleverness in me" she said to herself as she threw the match to the ground and stepped on it, putting it out.
Her steps clicked on the pavement each time her half tied combat boots hit the ground. She didnt bother to tie them since it made it easier to kick them off. Walking toward the Lounge she could almost taste the whisky on her tounge. "Come to me liquor" she whispered as she walked up the steps that led into the pub. Pushing the doors open she walked in and rubbed her hands as she snickered under her breath.
Her thoughts about the whisky were sood erased when she saw her adoptive father with a strange young woman. "Dad?" she said raising and eyebrow and cocking her head. who is he with she thought to herself as she walked up to her father. Quickly she looked at the stranger and drew her desert eagle from her thigh. "State the reason you are talking to my dad" she said as she pointed the gun at the young woman. Delirium seemed a bit way over her head since her small accident with the hunters. Not many but Chiru knew about her change and they were mentally had changed. "Speak" she added as she looked at the young woman.
Delirium did not mean to be rude, but she didnt like to see her father getting hurt like her mother had done to him.

“Dravin” she softly said so she would remember his name. He did not come often here because he was scared Chiru would hit him and Amber wondered why she would do that. She had met Chiru and she thought it was a very nice woman, not the type that would hit people. But she was not sure if she should ask even if her curiosity already again started to show as she looked at him with sparkles in her eyes for him to clarify. But they were interrupted by the man at the bar that had come to them and rudely asked Dravin for money. As she watched the two interact she understood that both men knew each other. As he looked at her and then asked who she was, he instantly tensed up and looked down. The man was a bit too much for her especially the fact that he already smelled like he had drank too much even if she noticed him not long before. Dravin seemed to be not so pleased and the conversation ended with the guy leaving out of the door. Amber was happy about tat because she was not really sure she would have liked it if he had stayed and joined them and so her eyes left the door and returned to Dravin.
“Is he the friend you talked about” she asked remembering he had told her why he was here. She looked at the door again and then shook her head. “He is not really a nice guy, you are much nicer” she said with a smile as she looked back at him. She always thought people were nice. Looking at her glass for a moment she smiled. “I don’t like anything with alcohol in it but I did not want to sit here empty handed it looks so strange” she said while playing with the glass again. She hoped he did not think she was weird or something and again she wondered why she had come here. “This is the first time that I came here; I normally stay in the loft room or in the three at Damon’s home.
Looking at the waitress that just past she called for her. The waitress came and looked at her. “You do not like your drink miss” she asked Amber but her tone was not the nicest. Amber looked down. “No, it is alright” she said. She was really not made from going out, people always knew they could walk over her and she only wanted to have the glass taken from her and brought an orange juice as she really liked that. It was Carey who preferred blood from humans. Amber preferred vampire blood and then from her friends because you never did ask strange vampires for blood that was rude. Looking back at Dravin she smiled at him. “Are you a childer from Chiru?” she asked him
It was like a second after she asked it that a woman joined them and instandly as she spoke amber knew it was bad for her as the woman called the man dad. As a gun was pointed at her she could not help herself and she jumped back instandly changing into a white wolf as she jumped into the nearest corner growling , her tail etween her legs and she made herself as small as possible. The only troule being that guns also had another effect on her as she was trying hard to hold that feeling back. Guns one of the only things Amber still knew from her childhood. Her wolf eyes were bright yellow and showing from the dark cornor she was in as the sound from her growling also was becoming louder. She was scared and scared was never good.

"Yes, unfortunately that is my friend." Dravin said, he listened to her talk about how Seth wasn't very nice. He nodded but then she said he was much nicer. "Thanks...but many people are nicer then him." he said with a smile.
He wasn't sure what to make of the waitress, as long as the drink was paid for it shouldn't matter about if it was good or not unless there had been something wrong with it then it should have been replaced.
Dravin laughed when she asked if he was a childe of Chiru's. "Oh no. I'm not a childe of anyone but I live with Chiru's vampire sister, Aneres. I suppose I would consider them family...suppose to be an uncle figure to Aneres...not that it turned out that way." he sighed. Seth sure wasn't an uncle either.
He was taken by surprise when Delirium showed up and threatened Amber right off the bat. "D-Delirium.." he stammered. She looked so different. "Whoa, Delirium. Don't threaten her." he said as he got up to get in the line of fire of the gun. Not like it would hurt him any, just another hole in his shirt. "Come now, lets settle down. Amber and I are just talking."
Dravin was unsure why Delirium was acting like this. Was she trying to protect him from something? There was no danger here though of any kind. "Delirium...I haven't seen you in so long. I'm sorry, I haven't left the Tower that much.." he said. He let out a deep breath. He was better now, better then what he had been. He wouldn't drink like he had before, that would just be Seth from now on. But he felt like he had no reason to leave the Tower at all.
He looked back at Amber, now an animal. He was unsure what to make of her now. A shape-shifter? Maybe but he would have to think about that later. "Alright Delirium, how about you put your gun away and we all sit down."

Deliriums eyebrows pulled together as the girl took the shape of a wolf. She did not react and her gun did not move. This all came natural to her after all she was made to kill. Her whole purpose was to survive and kill. She did not lift her finger from the trigger she felt the adrenaline rush through her as she thrived to pull the trigger.
Quickly she looked away from the girl toward her father as she called her name. With out hesitation she withdrew her other desert eagle from her theigh just in case. "Why not?" she asked confused like and unsure child. Watching him step in front of her between them she shook her head she looked back to the girl "no.. She will hurt father.. like she did" she said as she pouted. Delirium had not specified who 'she' was, but it was clear who had hurt her father all along.
Lowering down the gun's they disappeared from her hands as did the straps on her thighs. She moved to an empty chair and slumpped down staring at the wood table. "Sorry" she muttered at the girl her eyes still glued to the table. Delirium had seen no wrong in what she did after all Dravin was the only close family besides Chiru that she had.

Amber was still scared and she could not help it then stay on the cornor growling towards Delirium. But then Dravin got in the line of the guns and she walked closer keeping her ears in her neck and watched them. Why would he do that and more important why was she doing this. Amber had never hurt him or did she and had she forgotten. She shook her wolf head as she looked back at them. Things seem to settle down even if she stil had no idea who the girl had talking about when she said that a she had hurt her father. She did make the conclusion that father was Dravin as the girl seem to protect him.
It took her a bit after the girl has sat down before she was able to change back into her human form. It was almost fighting with someone else but she was now sure enough that Dravin would not let Delirium shoot her.
Sitting ack at the table she did not dare to look at the woman but just looked down at her hands. "I am Amber she said knowig that Dravin had already said that but she wanted to let the woman know she wanted to be friends. "I will never hurt him, missor at least not willingly. I would like him to be my friend"she said softly not looking up scared that the woman would pull her guns again.

"No one can hurt me like she did, Delirium." Dravin said to her, "That requires a lot more time with someone not say she was my wife. Someone I just met can't hurt me like that."
He was happy when she finally sat down and said sorry. And then Amber sat down so he thought it was safe for him to sit back down as well.
Dravin looked to Amber, "Sorry about that." he said, "This is Delirium." he wondered how to explain this. "I was married once and Delirium was my wife's vampire childe. But she just disappeared again without a word after we were married...losing all contact with her Chiru cut her after sending several messages to her but still nothing so she was cut. She then went and found a new sire and family still without any contact to me. Like I didn't matter at all. So I spent a long time gathering the money to remove the bond...Delirium managed to get her to be cut and was taken in by Chiru."
In truth it was the first time he had spoken about it out loud as Aneres and Chiru knew, even if Chiru blamed him for her leaving which didn't make things any easier. He left pain while talking about it. He closed his eyes for a moment to clear his mind before looking at them both.
"But that is in the past..." Dravin said, "Delirium you don't need to be so protective of me. Though it is nice knowing someone still cares about me."

Delirium sat there as Dravin explained that Ambers and her ex sire were not alike and that it would not be possible for her to hurt him like she had done. Nodding lightly she did not look up at Amber. Hearing her father as he introduced her she had begun to feel a bit guilty that she had him explain major parts of his past.
Delirium crossed her hands over he chest. It was obvious that she did not want her father getting involved with any other woman. She knew that friendships sometimes led to more and she did not want that especially when he might get hurt again. Leaning back on the chair she placed her stretched out her legs and placed them on a table next to them.
Her attention turned to her father than back at the other vampire as she bared her fangs. "Sorry" she apologized once more. Her words still held harshness in them. Ofcourse she was overprotective of him how could she not be?

Amber listened when Dravin was talking. she knew what it was to be hurt by the one you loved. Well not in the amount that Dravin had but still. She still became sad when she thought about Cody. She was happy for him that he had found someone to be happy with but at the same time she wondered why he had not been able to be that with her. As he talked on she looked at the woman and then looked down. Maybe the woman was right and she should leave. She was bound to hurt someone again or they would hurt her. The woman was not that wrong and from what the woman showed to wards Amber was for Amber reason to not understand so much. She had came here because she needed to get out and Dravin had joined her but maybe that was her fault to. she should have stayed in the loft room.
The more the woman was there the more Amber had the idea she had been right when she had protected Dravin. Maybe she was a walking treat that she would hurt Dravin. She just did not know it. As she was thinking about this and listening to Dravin saying she could never hurt him like his ex wife had done she was starting to feel ad about herself like she had done it herself. What if she would then the woman have all right to shoot her, Mabye the woman should before she would actually do that. Looking at the table she could feel a bad feeling in her stomach and she started biting her lower lip and trade she had picked up from Thylantis Rune.
As Dravin stopped talking she looked at him and then at the woman he had just introduced as Delirium. "I am sorry, i should not have came here, but i swear i dd not come here because i wanted to hurt anyone"she told the woman. Her whole attitude was apologizing as she made herself almost small. Delirium was so sure of herself so it seemed and Amber looked at Dravin. "I am happy i met you"she said. She rose from her chair and looked at the door her hands behind her back. Not sure if she should leave or not she then looked at the bar. "Do you want something to drink?"she asked the woman and Dravin at the same time.

Dravin looked over at Delirium, she had only said one thing and that was sorry again. "Delirium, do you want me to be a hermit? Its bad enough that I've locked myself up in the Tower for so long. I just wanted to get out for a little bit...or should I say, it was Seth who wanted out...suppose if it wasn't for him, I would still be locked up.."
It wasn't like he was looking for a relationship, he just needed to get out more. Have some people to talk to, nothing more.
He looked at Amber, who acted like she wanted to run. Well, he suppose he couldn't blame her at this point.
"You seem to be in need of getting out more as well. Your so shy." Dravin said, he paused when she asked if they wanted a drink. "Ah well no. Should be I buying you drink after all of this. Though if there is something you will drink." he added with a smile.

Delirium ended up feeling worse than ever, but she clouded the frown with anger. Not at Amber.. not at her father, but at herself and her ex sire. As Amber asked her if she wanted anything all she could do was remain silent and shake her head. Sitting there silently as her father asked her if she wanted him to be a hermit she could not find herself answering. Instead she listened to Amber and Dravin exchange words.
Staring down at the table she began to follow the lines on the wood trying to flush the anger from her head. For now she did not know what to tell her father or the vampiress. Her eyes began to wander around the lounge as she watched most drink themselves away. It reminded her of her small alcoholic treatments. Delirium would admit to anyone that she was fond of her whisky and vodka. She prefered it on a regular night, but tonight she felt a bit to horrible to drink such sweet things.

Amber listened like she always did and she looked at both trying to figure out what she had done wrong. The woman now seemed to feel guilty and that was not something that was intended y amber and she felt now gulty as well. Her attention was brought back to Dravin when he said she needed to get out more too. She was so shy he said. Biting her lip she simple nodded once then shook her head. "I do not go out much, i only came here because Damon said i should try to get out more. I find it really hard to do"she said but she did not look at Dravin because she did not want to see if he looked strangely at her. In the time they had talked and she had mostly listened she had come to the understandingthat Dravin did not go out much either but with good reason.
Amber thought about the reason he had and she understood. Hearts were so easily broken and people were hurt so easily. she just seem to come to that understanding for a short time. When he said he should by her something if she drank she looked at him and for the first time since the woman had come she smiled at him. "you do not need to Dravin, i should have understood her"she said and looked at Dilerium. She looked at her glas bloodwine and then smiled. "but if ou could get the waitress to exchange this into an orange juice without her being mad at me i would be happy. I do not think she likes me much"she said

Dravin sighed softly. Delirium hadn't said anything. He was left wondering what was there to say now. He didn't reply to anything that had to do with her sire. Wasn't a subject he wanted to get on.
He took the drink she did not want, "She maybe just rude to females.." not that he was that sure in his charm but it was worth a shot.
Dravin walked over to the waitress, "Would like to exchange this for a orange juice...if you would be so kind to do." he said. He handed her the cup and sure enough it was exchanged for an orange juice even though she didn't seem to happy about it. "Thank you." he added before walking back to the table and placed the orange juice down. "There you go."

Delirium continued watching them intaract it all seemed harmeless. Her first time seeing her father in a long while and she managed to ruin it. Lifting her hand she called the waitress. She found it better that she should get atleast some alcohol in her system to loosen up. "whisky" she said as she turned her attention back to Dravin and Amber.
"How long have you been in the city?" Delirium finally asked. Her words were strong toned but held a bit of softness aswell. "You are stronger than me... I was just curious to how long you have been here" she added. She had been here long probably two years and she was still completely weak. Lacking time she was struggling to get her powers. Her sire was encouraging to take up the quest and work on getting fully powered already.
Remaining silent again she waited till her drink was brought to her.
