Acelin Ashenvale walked down one of the many streets inside Ravenblack City. Shadows started to form around her as night drew closer as the sun set. A few lamps lined the street side, but their light was barely enough to see from. It was going to be a chilly evening, a slight cool breeze was in the air as she walked.
She had long, raven black hair falling down to almost the middle of her back. A few strands of her hair underneath where white blond and she had a black side swept bang. Her eyes were blue, like the sea after a storm and ice blue. Yet unusually soft and gentle. They always shone with something, maybe news or prehaps a secret that only she knew. Her skin was fair and ivory white, though not as pale as most of the other vampires that she had come across.
She dressed casually, having just recently gone shopping with her father, Dri. Acelin herself had only been a vampire for nearly two months, so her father was still protective of her. She wore dark blue jeans, a dark brown belt and regular sneakers. Her shirt was white, with a few layers of tanks underneath.
It was dark outside now and Acelin had finally arrived at the Lounge. She opened the door and stepped inside, the breeze closing the door shut quietly for her. Acelin glanced around briefly before walking over to a table near the roaring fireplace and sat down. There didn't seem to be many other people here tonight. Prehaps there was a Moonieon party going on or something of that sort.
It was dim in the Lounge, the fire light reflecting off the walls and some of the faces of the people lingering about. As she sat in her chair, she pulled out a sketch book. Acelin loved to draw, no matter where she was or what she was doing. She turned the sketch book to a fresh page and begun to draw the window that was nearby. As she started to outline the window, she thought she heard rains drops beginning to fall on the roof.

Looks up at the sky, scrunching his nose as the rain started to fall on his face. He wrapped his shadow wings around him like a cloak and slipped in the nearest door, grumbling. As the door shut behind him he looked about seeing it was a lounge. He smiled a bit, glad that at least he could get something to drink here, or so he hoped.
Sighing and looking 'round the Lounge his gaze falls on Acelin. He grins and walks over to her, bowing deeply "Miss Ashenvale, it's a pleasure to see you, though I wasn't expecting it... May I join you?"

Acelin had sketched the outline of the window and was starting the framework when she heard the door of the Lounge open. Guessing that it was just a vampire of one of the families, she did not look up and continued to draw. Only when the scent of someone she knew reached her did she look up. And there was Dmon, bowing deeply before her. She smiled softly at him, her stormy eyes light and happy on this evening.
"Its a pleasure to see you again as well Dmon." She said softly and nodded as he asked to join her. "I'd like that." A few loose strands of her raven black hair fell into her eyes and she brushed them back out of the way. She could hear the rain steadily now on the roof and was glad to be indoors and by a warm fire.

Smiling, he sits down near her, adjusting his blindfold and gazing at the sketch pad. He chuckles a bit, recognizing it as the one he'd gotten her shortly after they first met. Gazing around he murmurs
"It's awful quiet in here.. Is it usually like this? And.. Where is here? I was just wandering the streets"

Acelin smiles and looks over at him. "This place is known as the Lounge, where vampires and other creatures come to relax... you could say." She said softly. Actually, this was her first time here at the Lounge... well no, it was her second time after she thought about it. The first time she had come here she had met Azula, a friendly male vampire who she had gotten to know a little.

Picking up on her thoughts without meaning to he growls softly murmuring "How well is well?"
He sighed rustling his hair, shadow wings shifting tensely. Looking around he took a deep breath and murmured "I'm sorry, Miss Ashenvale. I'm not having the best of days. Can we order drinks here or is it an alcohol free lounge? Allow me to buy you some wine"

Acelin tilted her head to the side slightly at his murmured question. He must have picked up on her thoughts by accident. She knew he was really just mumbling it to himself, but she still decided to answer him.
"Azula and I haven't spoken in a month since we met." She said softly and then nodded. "Its alright and no, we can have alcohol here. The bar is right over there, I think." She said pointing behind him.

Nodding, he stands and bows to her slipping over to the bar and ordering 2 bloodwines, he comes back bowing again, setting her drink down in front of her and bowing before taking his seat again, toasting her before taking a drink. "To beauty"
After taking a breath he says "I'm sorry. I shouldn't get defensive like that.. And I'm sorry for picking up your thoughts. I didn't mean to.."

Acelin watched him rise and walk over to the bar, getting two bloodwines, then returning. He bowed once more and set a glass in front of her before sitting back down beside her. She smiled a little at him and took the glass in her hand, toasting him back before taking a drink.
She looked at him and shook her head, looking down. "Its alright, I know you didn't mean to. Other than you, my family and a few friends I don't have anyone else." She said softly.

Nodding solemnly he gazes at her, his shadow wings slipping through the chair as he leaned back.
"I know what it's like not to have anyone.. Or only a few people... I've spent a great portion of my life alone..."
He smiles and leans in to gently kiss you on the cheek.
"We've got each other now though.. Hopefully for a long time coming. I wonder how long your father will say is long enough until we can bind...."
Blushing a bit he takes a sip of his drink.
"I mean.. I know we haven't known each other very long.. but it feels like longer..."

Acelin smiles as he kisses her cheek and then blushes at his words. "Yes, it does seem a lot longer than what it is..." She said softly and then thought for a moment. "Viral mentioned a few days ago that I have eternity to find someone I love and bind to them. Though, I guess for me eternity is only about a week or so." She says, smiling.
"As for my father, I wouldn't know. He got engaged to Akane only after a week or two. Though its probably different for me." She said, blushing slightly because of the topic.

Blushing as well he murmurs "Well.. I think your grandfather just doesn't like me.. Which is upsetting. He hardly knows me.. I think he'd like me if he'd take the time to get to know me." He sighs and takes a sip of his drink. "Why do you think Sir Viral despises me so much?"

Acelin smiles and laughs softly. "Probably because you're in love with his young grand daughter." She said and blushed faintly. "You know, you're supposed to be decades old, but I'm only 17. I was turned just a few months ago by my father." Which was true. "Anyways, I'm sure he'll get to know you, maybe not right away, but that's just how he is. He might be more interested in getting to know you if he heard you wanted to go to The Hall of Binding with me." She said softly, blushing.

smiling a bit "We'll wait a little longer to be sure all goes well.. That is.. If you want to be bound... I mean.. I don't want to drag you along if you don't want to.."

Acelin smiled and kissed his cheek. "Well... I wouldn't say you're dragging me into anything..." She said softly, teasing him slightly. "But I think I answer that question when you ask me. And I won't until you do." She said softly, taking another drink from her bloodwine.

Smiling and blushing he raises his glass to you. "I want to get some more powers before asking anything... I'm not sure the Ashenvale family would be so kind to allow someone with so few powers into their midst. And mayhap Lord Dri and Lord Viral are correct in telling us to take more time..." sighing a bit and tossing back the rest of his wine

Acelin nodded and gazed out the window for a little while. "Yes, they're probably right... I still have a long time before I need to start thinking about things like that." She said softly, still looking out the window up at the starry night sky.

sighs, gently wrapping an arm around your shoulders pulling you close "Let's see how things go.. let us power up a little more.. Learn about each other a little more.." Brushing my lips feather light over your cheek
