Path of the Vampire forum

The woman sat at the bar, having ordered the drink that had been named after her by Wolfgang and Scorpia themselves. She of course couldn't drink it, but the woman rather enjoyed the yellowish tinge of alcohol in the dainty glass.

Her blue hues swept the width of the bar, looking for familiar faces. Slowly, one by one, she saw those she was familiar with. Mostly, those in her family and those she knew in passing from a few encounters in the city. Kayden was spotted as he made his way to the bar, further away than she had anticipated. While she sat towards the middle of the room and bar, Kayden seemed content on working the side of the bar that was closest to the door. It seemed as if perhaps he was avoiding her and that caused a small frown to cross her features before the woman spotted Alexandrea. When a wave was offered to her, the woman waved back, her frown disappearing in to a large smile before Elizabeth edged the drink away from her and towards the opposite side of where she sat.

When Temperance arrived, Elizabeth rose from the stool she had claimed and made her way to the woman. It had been far too long in Elizabeth's mind and while some would have perhaps thought the worst of things in regards to Temperance and her lack of involvement in city and familial affairs, Elizabeth knew better. She of course had at least half a million questions for Temperance, but this was neither the time, nor the place and so when Elizabeth finally stood in front of perhaps the only Allurist she felt completely comfortable around, Elizabeth threw her arms around Temperance and gave her a large hug. "I am most pleased you decided to come out this evening. You look, lovely, as always." It was at this time Elizabeth spotted Scorpia from the corner of her eyes and a small laugh escaped her lips. "Even if we may be perhaps a tad bit overdressed." Not knowing Scorpia as well as she should have, Elizabeth realized this event was more casual than anything. Not that it particularly mattered, for the woman would have worn a dress regardless.

"Have you tried a Golden Tulip?" Elizabeth's attention went back to the bar as she looped an arm around Temperance's arm, a smile still upon her lips. When Corin appeared, Elizabeth gave her a wave as well, then nudged her head over to the bar where she was adamant on moving to, so Temperance cold have a drink on her.

The gloved hand placed the brake into its place before climbing down and out of the carriage. It was not nearly as often that she parked behind the shop and went in the back to search for her sire, Zodiac, or for Jenn. Truth be told she somewhat missed the early days when she first arrived to Harper Rock. Stepping into the back and closing the door behind her she felt it all the more. Her apron would hang on the hook that she just passed and her keys would be beneath the cash drawer. She would punch in just to the left of the stock room at the time clock. That is usually when she would pull her hair back and pull out some bookworm glasses that really did nothing to improve her perfect eye sight nor her youthful appearance.

The golden haired telepath glanced down at her Victorian-era influenced riding dress with the complimenting plumed velvet hat perched on top of her head. Some changes were a good thing. She was grown and a businessperson on her way following in her sires footsteps. A subtle shrug of her shoulders was followed by the progression of her foot steps towards the inside of the shop where she could hear the uncharacteristic sounds of some scuffling? A brow shot up as she lifted up her skirt moving in a faster pace hunting for the source. Rounding the corner and getting view of the stairs she looks up and hears a thud followed by rolling? This never happened when she worked for Zodiac. there was the time that gun greeted her in the face when she first started but the woman turned out to be a friend of Zodiac's. Ever since then Iris was in great shape. Now she was running upward not wasting a moment following the purple carpeting to see what possibly could be going on in her sires shop.

Reaching the door she attempted to turn the knob and found it locked. Her cornflower-blue orbs rolled to the ceiling then she pulled off her black leather gloves she neglected to earlier upon entering. She wiggled her shoulders back and lifted her chin and like anyone else with the power to enter where otherwise not invited she did just that. In the room where the ruckus was now visible she tossed her gloves on the nearest flat surface and found what appeared to be her sires legs and Jenn's fire-red locks tumbling with the sounds of a no holds barred fight going on.

"Ladies!" Iris protested with her pale hands fitted firmly at each curve of her hips. She stomped her button up leather boot clad foot on the floor and raised her voice. "LADIES!"

Finding no response as the fight continued she was left with no choice. Jenn did not need to see the numerous options Iris had at her disposal in breaking it up. She was a woman who opted for a hands on approach and set to that task with a nearby broom in hand. Curling her hand around it just like baseball bat she tightened up her grip and took an attention getting swat at each backside as it came to view in the tumbling. When that served little distraction she swatted even harder.

"That is enough!" Again she took aim and swung but this time it was enough to send the end of the broom off the dowel. "I..." She growled as she swatted again on the backs of the legs that went over the other body. "...said ENOUGH!" She looked around and found a water pitcher next to a tray of new plants. She dropped the dowel and clasped the pitcher in her hand and sent the water over both of the women hoping that cooled the tempers down.
