Path of the Vampire forum

Charlie gave a little bit of a shrug at the girl's question. From what she knew when it came to eating, it really did depend on the path but just like in the human world she used to be a part of, there was always the exception to the rule. So many could be the same thing and each one have their own thing that makes them different from all the others. She looked at the girl but there was really no way to tell what the girl was, to her she looked like every other vampire, smelled like every other vampires, acted like every other vampire. Well... most vampires that she had come to know and know about.

When she asked about the Path, it was still something that she was getting used to. "I've been told that I'm an Allurist, given some of the traits that I have. I also am still fairly new to this city, I moved here from Maine about 6 months ago. As for the rules, it's really hard to say what I know to be true and what I have basically been told to just ignore. And then there are the rules that I think are just asinine so I don't even bother to follow those. A few of the places that I look about on the net though have been able to give me a little help here and there."

Then she smiled a little and nodded "Computers are things I know quite well, I rather love just sitting in front of the computer with a nice hot coffee and maybe a roll or two and just see what kind of systems I can get into and all of the files I can sell from said systems. It's a great way to make money I've found out. $1000 bucks a day at least on some days. I tend to average about $500 though." She did love hacking, and every day it got a bit easier, every day it got more and more money for her. By this point she could already by her own business, but of course, she had no idea why kind of business she would even want to run let alone who else she would trust enough to hire. There were so many things about business that she just didn't understand. She was sure though that she would eventually learn everything she needed about businesses, but for now she was having too much fun being on the wrong side of the law.

It was then that she zoned back in and she realized the girl was still talking, about breaking said laws. "I know what you mean, I can't even begin to list how many Microwaves I run into, or how many canisters of Chemical waste. Not to mention wire and watches. It's mind blowing, even for my mind, which was pretty big and open to begin with, but now that I am this way. Well, now it seems I have even more storage capacity than before."

Charlie nodded to the girl, she had said the same sort of thing not only a week before she had ended up being sent to that blasted Shadow Realm. It had left her changed now. Now she knew what Elliot had meant about some of the things he had told her about. And while she agreed both with him and this girl that now sat before her, she sat at a bit of a cross roads. She had come to be a fair bit more careful about things. Learning to hide better, but the number one thing that had taken precedence was that she spent a lot of time building traps, trying to better her skill at making them so that when something like what happened earlier the month had happened, she would be going with one hell of a fight.

The girl went on about opening an Electronic store or a stationary shop, both were things she knew already existed, but who was she to tell this girl different. She just smiled and nodded a bit as she closed her laptop all the way and leaned against it, looking at the girl. "It's just not the same anymore when it gets cold hmm?" She asked, she had spotted the slight face the girl had made when she was drinking it. "How about I get us a couple more cups and you tell me a little more about you hmm?" She asked as she looked at the girl and waited for her answer.

Charlie gave a little nod and then smiled and stood up. Making her way to the counter she started to flirt up the barista working her 'charms' on them so that she could talk down the price of the coffees as well as the two chocolate chip muffins she had ordered for them as well. As she waiting for the new coffee, Charlie turned and leaned against the counter, looking back at the girl as she was spoken too. "I could say the same thing about myself. Not only am I boring, and a home body, but i'm a total nerd." She said with a soft laugh before she turned back to the counter, allowing the girl to check her phone in privacy.

Charlie paid the discounted price for the food and drinks and moved back over to the girl offering her a coffee and a muffin before she took her seat behind her laptop once again. She lifted the coffee to her lips and took in a soft sip, it burned but it didn't hurt like it should have. She didn't attempt to hide the fact that it wasn't painful to her, it wasn't like the person behind the counter was watching them anyways as they chatted. "There must be something, how about how long...?" she said as she motioned to the girl and then to herself to silently ask about how long she had been a vampire.

There were a few other things she wanted to ask but she would wait till the girl answered the first question.
