Stephen Ravenna

As he jogged around the neighborhood, Stephen noted the places of interest. A store? Yep. A laundry place? Yep. A gym? Yep. A pet store for Morrigan's needs? Yep. Seems like this town has everything he and his boyfriend needs. The breeze feels so fresh on his skin and body as he worked the sweat out of his body, the wonderful blend of nature and civilization was always a sight for his golden eyes. As he made it to one of the major parts of the town, Stephen saw at the corner of his eye a man waving towards his direction. He pulled one of his eye buds out and heard him call to him, which he responded with a "Hey!", a friendly wave and smile as he walked towards the stranger. As he came to a stop in front of him, Morrigan swooped down from above and perched on his shoulder like a falcon. "Hey... It's quite nice to have neighbors this friendly." Stephen smiled and held his hand open for Matthew to shake. "The name's Stephen. Stephen Ravenna. My boyfriend and I just arrived here."

“It’s relieving to have somebody who would actually actually reply. If this was Bridgeport, I probably would have gotten a funny look, assuming that somebody actually heard me.” Matthew smiled and shook Stephen’s hand. “I’m Matthew Fitzgerald.” Matthew tried, and failed, to ignore the well trained raven that had just dived from above into the edge of his vision. “So, is that raven your pet? I know it’s a dumb question, but I’ve lived here for a few months now and, while I’m not that I’m a wizard or anything, I would think that magic could attract natural animals.”

Stephen shook his hand with a warm smile on his face. "Nice to meet you. I was actually thinking that the neighbors won't say hi or notice the new arrivals but I'm glad there are people who are nice enough to strike a conversation with." Steohen's eyes brightened as Matthew noticed Morrigan on his shoulder in which he let the raven hop onto his fingers. "Yeah, Morrigan's my familiar. I've had her since I was a kid and she never left my side. And yes, I'm a wizard." He said as he stroked the soft feathers on the raven's head and Morrigan bumped her head towards the touch like how a dog would approve a petting.

“That’s interesting. It seems here you don’t really know who’s a “normal” human and who isn’t.” Matthew said as his attention shifted back to Stephen. “At least in my experience,” He continued, “The vampires in Bridgeport are more noticeable than the ones here. Besides the huge nightlife seemed a more... sadistic? I’m not sure if that’s the right word or not.” He explained with a shrug. “I did date a vampire between High School and College, so I suppose I should know!” Matthew added with a chuckle before stealing a glance at his watch. “Would you like to continue to chat at Eerie Park? There’s probably a musician or two there and I have some reading that I would like to do. If you’d rather continue on your jog, but would like to meet up later, I’ll probably be at Varg’s Tavern later tonight.” Matthew asked while reminding himself to meet Stephen’s boyfriend at some point.

The sound what might have been Dark Wave, or perhaps Indie was coming from Vlarg's Tavern as Spencer Approached. Inside the sound of pool balls colliding could be heard. Vlarg the 4th, the gruff owner of the establishment over looked the three customers who where involved in bets regarding trick shots. The Tavern had only recently opened and thus the three where part of the common patrons- one, a blond haired lady in short shorts and a pink camo jacket with cowgirl hat looked like she belonged in Appaloosa Plains would be giving a confident grin towards the current shooter with a twinkle in her violet eyes. The current shooter's sunny brown hair was in a pony tail and had black streaks in it- one of his ears was pierced with a diamond stud. He returned her grin with a confident grin of his own and a bit of magic in his eyes as he shot. Upon shooting, his aim slightly off he stood with a stern analyzing look. He wore an open black jacket, and tore jeans. The third moved into position at the end of the table to make his own shot- he seemed like a wreck compared to the others- he had a white tank top on smeared in greese and dirt- he was barefoot- and his pants had seen better days. But of them he seemed to be smiling the most and laughed amiably as he readied his own shot. Vlarg notices Spencer walk in and begins walking to the front of the counter.

"I hear you're hiring." Spencer asked simply. "Either for stocking or mixing, I'm fine with either." He presented his application, with well documented sources and well-written answers to the blanks in the questions.

Vlarg pulls the applications closer to him- stern in countenance yet relaxed in movement. Reading segments of the document under his breath, and looking briefly over towards the game in progress as the sound of the third player making his shot sounded. The lady laughed a little as she took position at the end of the table to make her shot. Vlarg picked up the application, and drew it closer to him keeping the same expression, "Seeing hows your the only applicant, and drove in I'm amp to hire yas now. Though I'd expect you to do a little of everything- cleaning, stocking, and at times man'n the bar. Though your experience in that area is meager." Another shot at the table was struck as Vlarg turned his attention to the game, "Hey Lu." He somewhat called out to the table as the pink camo wearing woman moved aside for the next player and responded somewhat loudly, "Yeah."

"What do you think of Spense here," Lu began to walk over and used the pool stick to lean on while glancing at Spencer with her purple eyes, "can you see him manning the bar?"

"Shoot, that boy would probably choke up when ol' gus comes around- he's cute though."

The grease covered man let out a hauty laugh, "He's too young for ya!"

"Ol shut up Gus," she said glancing back before turning back to Vlarg, "I was only teas'n."

The man with the pony tail shook his head, "Sure you were."

Lu taped her foot and chuckled. Vlarg turned back to Spencer, "What about you Spense, theank you can handle these folk?"

Jeffrey conspicuously set up a tip jar near the park bench, uncased his guitar and began to play. He fought to set aside his uneasiness at playing in a new location for the first time, and his uneasiness with the people he saw walking around the park. He struck a chord to make sure he had it tuned properly, and began to play.

Mallory sat on the ground nearby, pen and pad in hand and split her attention between her husband and the people walking around her. She began to make notes about her observations of the people in the park, and made up her mind to start a conversation with the first person to approach to listen to Jeff play. Yes, this could work to the advantage of both of them.

Tyler was walking through the park. He hadn't met anyone really yet. He enjoyed taking a walk through the park though. Then, he heard someone playing guitar. He then walked over to them and said "you play the guitar pretty well." Then, he dropped ten dollars in the tip jar. Then, tyler said "How long have you played the guitar?"

"Fifteen years." said Jeffrey, and went back to playing. Mallory then spoke to the man who had addressed them. "Please forgive my husband. He sort of gets lost in his own world when he plays. My name is Mallory Blanchard, and this is my husband, Jeff. We just moved here from Bridgeport. It's nice to meet you." She held out her hand.

"Hello Mallory and Jeff Blanchard! My name is Tyler Boyer, owner of the BuildCity Technology and real estate company. its nice to meet you!" Tyler said. Then, he put his hand out and shook mallory's hand. "Me and my family recently moved here as well!" Tyler said excited to meet a new neighbor. "How do you think of this town so far? I think it's pretty cool so far. I've also heard myths and stories about how there's tons of supernatural activity here. Also, are you looking for a job? I'm hiring someone to be my assistant in my new office at my mansion." Tyler said. He was hoping that maybe Mallory might be able to be his new assistant in his office.

"Vampires huh. Vampires carry a very distinct scent around them. Kinda like an aura. But of course just look at their skin and their fangs and you'll surely spot one." He said as he laughed with Matthew. He seems like a nice guy, that's for sure. "Hmm. I guess I can join you. I still don't know parts of the town so it would be very nice to stroll around and chat with a new acquantance."

"The idea of supernatural activity is what brought us here," said Mallory. Jeff restrained himself from openly scoffing. "I have just registered at City Hall as a novelist, and my husband is looking for fellow musicians to hook up with. Thank you for the offer of employment, Mr. Boyer, but I'm afraid I have no clerical experience, and I'm sure you could not afford to have your business slow down while I got training on the job."

"The supernatural activity is a reason why my family moved too, and ok." Tyler said. "Also, Jeff plays the guitar really well. He has a lot of potential as a musician."

“Good! The park isn’t too far from here.” Matthew exclaimed as he clasped his hands together. The pair winded through town streets until they were approaching the Commonwealth Court. “Eerie Park is across from the Commonwealth Court which, in addition to being town hall, serves as the Police Station and the local headquarters for the military.” Going into the park, Matthew had quickly found a bench, near the fountain in the center of the park, with enough cover from the breeze to start reading if he chose.“If it is alright to ask, what is it exactly that you do for a living? ” Matthew asked Stephan as he sat down.

Stephen listened to Matthew's tour as they arrived to the park. He paused for a bit to buy them some ice cream and he sat beside him. "Here. A little something to thank you for showing me around." The blonde haired man leaned back on the bench and started to lick on his vanilla cone. "Me? I got an internship in a local veterinary clinic here. My boyfriend and I just got out of school and I took the opportunity to call the clinic in advance before we moved in. Luckily they needed fresh graduates." Stephen crossed his long legs and gave his vanilla swirl a little bite, sending shivers through his body. "How about you?"

"The supernatural activity is a reason why my family moved too, and ok." Tyler said. "Also, Jeff plays the guitar really well. He has a lot of potential as a musician."

"Thank you," said Jeff, looking up. "I only hope others here in town think so as well. And if you happen to know of any bands looking for a guitarist, I'd be much obliged if my name were mentioned."

“Thanks, I needed something like this. I’ve got an awful sweet tooth.” Matthew replied while running his hand through his hair. “I work for the Van Goulds as a clerk at their merchant house. I went to college for a Business, I graduated about a year or two ago. While I hope to start my own business at some point, I’m not exactly sure what I want to do yet.” Matthew answered after taking a bite off the top of his ice cream. Stretching on the bench, Matthew nearly dropped the ice cream, but awkwardly managed to save it. He relaxed and enjoyed the enjoyed the comfortable weather and the music being that was being played.

Stephen giggled heartily at Matthew's awkward catch. His own ice cream was slowly melted in his hand which he tried to keep in shape by licking the melted cream and turning the rest of the ice cream compact. "Seems like a great start. There's still years in front of you so there's no need to rush." His leg slowly rocked as he hummed to the music being played by the park performers. This town seems to be a great choice that he and Donovan made. Almost perfect in terms of services, the environment was stunning, and the people are kind and nice. "This place sure is wonderful, eh?"

"It is, to the point where it's almost unreal sometimes. It would be a nice place to raise a family." Matthew said while wiping a little ice cream of his hand. "Of course, on the flip-side of that coin, there isn't that much much to do here at night. I mean, there's Varg's Tavern, The Toadstool, and that Vampire Lounge. Other than that, and I'm not even sure if the Toadstool is even open, the town's about the same at night as it as at day." Glancing at his watch, Matthew decides that he should go and order lunch then head home. "Goodbye Stephan, thank you for the ice cream. I hope I see you around."

While leaving the park, Matthew dropped two simoleons in Jeff's tip jar. Ultimately deciding to eat lunch away from home, Matthew chooses to go the Sam's Market/Diner.

A little jingle of a bell sounded as Matthew entered Sam's Market/Diner. Hardly anyone was in at this hour save one rather dusty looking figure in the back with a cup of coffee. A somewhat tall youth with black hair in a white apron and a blue stripped shirt and a matching Soda Jerk hat leaned over the counter and smiled rather chipper this early in the morning; "Welcome to the Diner!" A name tag reads 'Steve', the guy tilts his head just a bit before putting a cloth away as if trying to recall a familiar face, "What will it be, some hash, a burger, hoggie, maybe our special of the day- Bear Burger?" He says pointed to a chalk depiction of a monster of a burger.

[Bingellia]

As he shuts the door behind him, with a faint squeak from the the hinges, Matthew takes a quick look around. He was little taken back by how empty the diner was as it was starting to close to lunchtime, but he knew that he was early for a lunch rush. “It’s a little slow today isn’t it?” Matthew jokes, returning the smile as he walked to the counter. “I’d like some corned beef hash with whatever regular cola you may have on fountain, please.”He orders after taking a seat on a stool in front of the counter. While waiting for his food to arrive, Matthew takes out his book and starts reading.

"Thank you," said Jeff, looking up. "I only hope others here in town think so as well. And if you happen to know of any bands looking for a guitarist, I'd be much obliged if my name were mentioned."

"I have to go pick my son up from school" Tyler said. "Bye!" Then, he walked to his limo. Then, he went to the school to pick up Clinton. When he got there, clinton was walking out happily. "Hi daddy! I had fun at school today!" Clinton said. "Good! What did you learn?" Tyler said. "Stuff" clinton said. "What stuff?" Tyler said. "Stuffy stuff" Clinton said. Then, they went home.

NIGHT ONE

"It's chill tonight with a cool breeze coming in from the mountains, for those of you who missed the game today we've experienced a slight lose- just one point. Oh I know, who wants to talk about a lose? Well VMP22 does."

The wanning moon was rising casting a silver across the town below. As usually the town began to take on a different life; in many cases more active now then any time of day. The street lamps put off a faint glow but seemed almost to struggle against the shadows of the town.

[Bingellia]

Given that he had off tomorrow as well and that it was only 10:00, Matthew decided to go to Vlarg’s Tavern. He slipped on his shoes as he went out the door. He turned into his small driveway and started his small Jalopy. The drive through the mountain roads took him close to the trailer park, almost out of town. He parked the car and entered the Tavern, hearing the usual Dark Wave being blared before he got to the door.

Inside, the tavern wasn’t particularly busy, although it wasn’t dead either. There were a handful of patrons playing billiards and Foosball on the first floor. On the second floor, about half of the tables were full, but the bar was currently empty. Taking a seat on one of the stools, Matthew waits patiently to be served, partially because he is still unfamiliar with the staff.

[Danceria]

-Snip-

Rusmhore Household
Spencer Rushmore
Spencer smiled wryly, just enough to be seen but not enough to be considered unprofessional, and he relaxed at the stool. "I hope not to, but I'm not afraid to toss someone out who has tossed back more than he could afford."

Spencer made a note to himself to turn up early, just to acquaint himself with the bar, and learn a few more advanced mixing techniques. In the meantime, he chatted away with both "Lu", Gus, and Vlarg, just to get a feel of who they were and how they presented themselves. After speaking with Vlarg for a bit on hours and Transformation Leave (due to his being a werewolf), and training. So far, Spencer felt that he was going to excel at the job.
Vlarg's Tavern
2200hrs, local time
From inside the stocking room, the Dark Wave that seemed to blare was reduced to a low throb, allowing for the now werewolf Spencer to hear himself think. As much as he appreciated the extra sharp senses, he concluded that he wouldn't be visiting any dubstep concerts anytime soon. Checking briefly on the security camera, he noticed a dark-haired gentleman enter downstairs. Taking the stairs behind the bar, the werewolf made his way to the lower level to welcome the new customer. Now donning a fresh button-down jacket, dark slacks, nonstick shoes, and a grey suit-vest, Spencer carried himself with an air of classiness and professionalism, opening the doors to the outer bar, he smiled. Refreshed after dealing with various vampires and their skin-crawling aura, he was happy to wait on a regular human. "Welcome to Vlarg's Tavern, what can I get for you?" he asked politely, pulling out a notebook and pencil, ready to write down and execute the order. Hopefully the newcomer would order a more "normal" drink. Though he looked the part, Spencer wasn't quite prepared to literally juggle drinks together and mix them in a showy manner.

[Bingellia]

While Vlarg's Tavern wasn't a particularly dangerous place, it was a place where people tended to keep to themselves or their group, although that did partially depend on who exactly was tending the bar on a given night. So, Matthew was a little taken back from individual, albeit professional, welcome he received tonight. He did return a pleasant smile as he shifted in seat, taking a minute to make up his mind on what to order. “A tombstone topper, please.” Matthew ordered, having decided on a commonly served and fairly plain house specialty. While amazed by his mannerism, which was in contrast with most of typical patrons, Matthew was clearly puzzled by the admittedly, and perhaps excessively, well dressed young man working at a bar frequented by the working class. He was playing with the front of his hair as he scanned the apparent newcomer, noticing his comparatively unkempt hair to the rest of his appearance. “So, are you new here?” Matthew asked, hoping quickly talk to the bartender as he made his drink.
