The Wandering Muse

Solace, looking just as he did when you first met him in the bar now having returned back from the mirror, tries to cross his legs casually, catches his foot on one of the bars, swears and stands back up to tidy them over in the corner "Pretty sure they'll disintegrate soon enough." He sits back down, and puts his arm around Marelle"Glamourflames. I figured, being fire, they'd probably help refill the plasma you took. Climbing up the lampposts wasn't as difficult as I'd thought it would be." He brushes his orange hair out of his face "So, What did you get up to?"

" Lampposts... in a mirror?" she asked him as her face shown her curiosity as she looked up at him.
" As for me I stayed here wondering what you where doing 'inside' a mirror, only to have you come back and talk about lamp posts. That and you scared my poor chichi." she told him as she could smell him even for here and he still smelt delicious.
" So biting you is okay, or did i take to much from you the last time?" she asked him wondering if it would be okay to touch him as she held out her hand to poke his shoulder  to see if she would catch on fire  from the heat that he was putting off.
Still she smirked as him before she crossed her legs and leaned back against the couch.
" What did you do in there?" she asked him as she looked him over know that he had returned from his trip in the mirror with more strength than before.

"Well, so long as you control yourself a little more next time. That, and if I get a chance to return the favour" Solcace bounces his eyebrows at that.
" And as for what I did in there... I went down the tunnel. fortunately those thing in there don't like light. I got a chance to look for the closest gaslamp and grabbed the flame from it. Those ones decay quickly, so I had to drink them quickly. After that it was simple enough to escape the vine that had started grabbing my legs. Well, sort of vines. They were the metal railings that had animated. But that's by the by. I got enough to relight my my flames better, and grabbed some bulbs. they're harder to get to, but they keep the flames inside themselves." He says all this casually, like it was no big deal. But his flushed cheecks, slowly returning to normal, and his elevated heart rate give him away. "After that, I came back the route I went though. It had changed a bit, but not too much. How much time passed?"

"I promise not to drain you dry that way again."she told him as she smiled at Solace.
Before she told him how much time had past while he was gone, "it was only a few hours putting it closer to dawn. I was starting to get sleepy." She told him with a small uawn as the pull to rest grew stronger as the sun slowly rose.
"Still you seems to have been through a lot, but would you mind if I used your bed to sleep on?" She told him as she looked over at the bed and chichi slowly come out from under the bed to bark twice at Solace for the scare.

"Feel Free. Though I've had a hell of a night as well, so I need some sleep too. Would you rather I sleep on the couch?" Solace Stood up and headed for the door. "I won't be long". After a few minutes, Solace comes back, now barefoot. "Aaah, That's better. You wouldn't think it, but getting to wash your feet comes as a rare blessing when you don't have a home of your own. "Solace's look turns a touch dark"Well, I do have one of course. But it's been taken..."Lightening up again as he sits down onto the couch"Say, How does your drinking blood work? If it's getting a bit late that's fine. well. Early. Whatever."Solace works on trying to get comfortable on the couch, despite the rather awkward shape of it.

Watching him come back in a more relaxed way, Maralle smirked at him as he told her more about himself.  Only to sigh that he would take the couch and could feel the uncomfortable parts of it.  She got up and walked over to him, taking his hand and leading him back to the bed.
" You bed you can sleep in it. I didn't want to push you out of bed. Although you might want to move later in the night because I wake up  to your warmth. I might feed from you again." she told him as she pushed him back on the bed and crawled up on to the bed in the corner.
" And my feeding works the same way as a spiders bite works.  But I don't have venom in it. Although the creature that seems to be a better example of my feeding would be the vampire bat.  Where they draw blood to the surface through deep sucking after making a small hole in the skin. " she told him as she yawned once more before rolling up a pillow to place under her neck.
" In the states, I  have a room  like this.. but not with as much stuff when i was  around my master. But he was a dick had hand to die." she told him as her eyes started to close. Leaving the statement as an odd closure before she rolled over and snuggled into his side.
At the same time, Chichi still not use to his new master's sleeping habits, curled up on the couch.

"Well aren't you a cuddly one"Solace says as he takes off his shirt. As he lies back down he puts his arms around Marelle "My, aren't you cold He whispers, "let me warm you up" And as Solace turned the bedside light off, He falls asleep quickly, with a companion in his arms for the first time in far too long...

As the sun worked its was through the sky, Maralle lay on the bed next to Solace still out the outside but dreaming of her horrify day with her master when she was turned. And the day that she was set free from him by an unlikely source of a young vampire hunter. Freeed from the bonds of childe and master after watching the bastard meet his end.
Tossing and turning in her dream, unable to do so in real life as he bold was held by the vice of the sun's power over the earth. Only as the sun started to set and the with the rise of the moon could she relax to the waking world as she felt the bright warmth of  her new friend besides her. .
Letting out a long sign as she could smell the warmth of the earth, the heartiness of his blood as it race through his veins, pulling her every closer to him as she moved closer to his neck. While working her way up towards his neck, she was unaware of the sight she was making. As her body slide every so slowly over Solace's legs to have her butt pressed firmly on his lap as her legs pinned him to the bed, her chest pressed against his using her unbead body weight to pressed him down more against the bed as her hands locked his arms I place, between their body's at her waist. While her mouth hover with her like curled and her fangs inches from his warm flesh. Did she feels him move slightly ,causing her to open her eyes.
"You really have a thing for tempting me so. I would have made you breakfast." She told him as she started at his face knowing he was not asleep but faking it.

"Aww, you ruin my fun" Solace wriggled his arms, thrn realising his arms were being held, so leaned his neck up to bite her neck lightly. Having surprised her, he slid up while keeping her on his lap. "How hungry are you? Because I mean, if you want, and only drink a small amount then im completely fine with that" Solace laid his arms onto marelles legs, lightly caressing her waist "It would make for a hell of a way to start the day. Only one time today though, so if you want to wait thats fine too. Then maybe we can decide what to do." He looks up towards Marelle , tilting his neck slightly.

"Tempter."she told him as she looked down at him and fought hard to smile at him.
"Your blood is too rich and I think I will wait to feed from you. I do it know I ,might not stop."Maralle told Jim as she wiggled a  bit in his lap before sliding off him. At the same time, she heard Chichi growling at them.
"His mad because he still has not gotten what I promised him a steak." She said as she leaned down to lick at his neck teasimgly.
"And if that is your game, then of is so on."she said as she rose and went to the bath room to take a nice got shower.

As he watched Marelle slide out of the room, Solace had a thought. He was pretty certain they weren't meant to stay here for so long. He got out of the bed, and scratching chichi's head,figured what to do next. He remembered there was a fire exit down the corridor. wandering out, while keeping the door slightly ajar, he confirmed it wasn't alarmed.

So the escape route from here was clear. but where next? Marelle didn't have a good place to go, and Solace had reason to suspect that despite her offer to work here, she wouldn't do too well. Besides, who ever heard of a vampire working at an arcade? at the very least it should be a casino. Owning one preferably. Anyway, even if she did, the illustrious Masterson didn't seem to be anywhere around. This was going to be more difficult than he thought.

He got to thinking what she said as they drifted off to sleep. That memory was a pleasant one certainly. She said something about her master. and how he had to die. He completely shared that sentiment of course. He might ask how she got away, when the right moment came.

Anyway, ChiChi's skittering around the floor reminded him that the next place they should go should be somewhere with food, that they can buy (since neither techincally had any money it appeared). after that somewhere they can stay longer term.

In the meantime, there was a game to be played. He lay on the bed, Deliberately feigning a pose of blissful, ignorant rest, with his neck streched to expose it to the door.

After letting the hot water run off her body to warm her up a bit, she walked out of the bathroom to grab her bag and changed into a nice chain skirt and all black shirt. One she had placed her things in her bag and had her boots out , she said down to put them on. Looking around she looked for small things that would go unnoticed when she pawned it.
Taking that and placing it in her bag she wondering if Solace new any out of the way placed that would take them in. She had heard of hostiles and places like that but that was only for a few days or so. She needed to find a place that was close to a food source for her and chichi that would not cause anyone to think twice about a few people or goods going missing.
Smiling she new that like all cities there where building that they didn't tear down because they had too much on their plates.  From there she would be able to get a better handle on the police around her and find a small pocket of London to make her own home.

When she seen Solace coming back in to the room, Maralle was packed and ready to go.
" Working here around all those humans would be too much. I can only be tempted so much in a night." she said under her breath as she called Chichi to her side and then turned to Solace.
" Know any Hostiles with openings for the night. I need to hit one up and get a few things." she told him with an evil gleam in her eyes.
