He sign to her as she go and close the place.

-I'll finish this bike tomorrow

He took is stuff and start to walk outside to go home. As they say, good time come after the rain, so let take that time to have some fun. He cross a park and went to join he's friends at the bar.

- Hi! guys what up?

- Took you long to get here Berny.

- Yeah ! one last costumer but I'm here now.

He wave at the barman for a beer and he start to have some fun.

Yesterday night a spoke with a ''vampire'' yeah. But for me you know ; vampire, human, alien, as long as they can pay for my mechanic I'm good with it and he gave me the nicest order oh! yeah. To build a bike, that really cool. Now let make some call to order the pieces I need and let build that thing.

I'll remember that name for long ''Jazir''.

Jazir Pevinah
inspects what Bernard gave him curiously.

Jazir Pevinah
"Did you want payment for these?"

Bernard Pathon
The first one its a gift so you can see I can be realy usefull

Bernard Pathon
put a pieces on the table

Jazir Pevinah
looks impressed.

Bernard Pathon
(quality 11 rapid fire barrel)

Jazir Pevinah
"I haven't tried my hand at crafting yet...what you gave me is better than what I had...as are the parts."

Bernard Pathon
I'm looking for the rest of the gun

Bernard Pathon
(the gun is yelloe/orange as you're color and at the end there's a skull face where the bullet go out of its mouth. On the side its wrote: welcom to the dead land)

Jazir Pevinah
finds lips twitching into a smile at the way the weapon looked.

Jazir Pevinah
"I think it would probably be best for you to keep the parts so you can assemble them and I will purchase or ask for improvements as I need them?"

Bernard Pathon
So do you like it ?

Jazir Pevinah
"I love it."

Bernard Pathon
let's say that the next big gun gonna say : welcome to hell

Bernard Pathon
excellent

Jazir Pevinah
"The next saying should say, 'to die will be an awfully big adventure.'"

Bernard Pathon
he wrote it on a paper

Bernard Pathon
I'm suppose to receive you're part for the bike tomorow

Bernard Pathon
and it should be ready for next sunday

Jazir Pevinah
"That's exciting."

Jazir Pevinah
waves at bartender to make a drink for Bernard since they happened to be in a club. Hasn't been in a club in a long time. Settles in a seat across from the crafting table Bernard had laid claim to comfortably.

Jazir Pevinah
crosses feet at the ankles lazily as eyes him.

Bernard Pathon
for the money, give me the part you find and I'll build what you want

Bernard Pathon
or you sell it and its 50/50

Bernard Pathon
took the drink

Jazir Pevinah
"How about I give you all the parts I find since I have no use for them and its easier for me to go where they're found safely than it is you? Then when you build something better than what I have now, we'll discuss price."

Jazir Pevinah
"Also if you need someone to sell them to a larger audience I can do that and we can split the price we get for it fifty/fifty."

Bernard Pathon
good for me

Bernard Pathon
lets see what else I can do right now

Bernard Pathon
I can't do nothing more today unless I mix some different kind of gun

Jazir Pevinah
"That's fine, you've given me a reliable weapon for free and another I can sell on the market. Which I appreciate."

Bernard Pathon
And I don't use the weapon

Bernard Pathon
But if you ever want to give me an upgrade I'll be able to build for you for a longer time.

Jazir Pevinah
scrutinizes him.

Jazir Pevinah
"You've got a few burns, I can smell singed flesh on you...are you okay?"

Jazir Pevinah
can sort of glimpse snippets of memories lingering around the human as well but doesn't want to frighten him since likes their alliance.

Jazir Pevinah
"What do you mean an upgrade?"

Bernard Pathon
Well someone thought it might be funny to put a right cam and make it explode

Bernard Pathon
I'm just a lowly human ...

Jazir Pevinah
seems amused at this.

Jazir Pevinah
"Didn't you have someone you were meeting who was considering giving you an opportunity to be more?"

Jazir Pevinah
is holding the weapon Bernard made him, running his fingers over the burnt orange metal of its body thoughtfully, his nails playing into the cracks of its casing and each breath he took in pulled that new parts smell of leather and oil and metal cleaner into his nostrils. Enjoys this, enjoys the light feel of the weapon and the almost silent way the safety flicked on and off. Eyes linger on Bernard consideringly as he waited for a response from the human.

Bernard Pathon
Good question As I know you're the only of you're kind I saw

Jazir Pevinah
eyebrows lift and then slips the safety off the gun before checking to make sure he had the ammunition in it already. Then levels it at Bernard, closing one eye dramatically, the other orange one fair aglow as he sighted it towards his chest and tucked his tongue in his cheek silently. Waits for a moment to see Bernard's reaction. "Did you give me this to impress me so I'd want to turn you?"

Bernard Pathon
stress a bit more

Bernard Pathon
Yess its pass trought my mind

Bernard Pathon
look a the gun intensly

Jazir Pevinah
"What do you know of us?"

Bernard Pathon
Not that much beside the stories we heard and the legend. The centuries of work I could do, ect ...

Jazir Pevinah
"I was pretty open with you about what I was when we first met but then that was mostly due to where you were and the fact I don't follow rules very well. Having me as your Sire would be complicated..."

Jazir Pevinah
lets the gun drop so its not aimed at him, likes the avid way Bernard had held still and watched the threat. Flicks the safety back on and rubs at the gun case again with a thumb thoughtfully.

Bernard Pathon
Sire ???

Jazir Pevinah
"If I made the choice to turn you? I would become your Sire."

Jazir Pevinah
"Any choices I've made, any enemies I've made...would suddenly be yours as well."

Bernard Pathon
If its what you think that good. But will you continue using my construction?

Jazir Pevinah
"Of course."

Jazir Pevinah
lips twitch into a smile.

Bernard Pathon
well that mean I could build beter equipement

Jazir Pevinah
"I am not against offering you more but you have to know a damn good reason why you want more and also a good reason to be loyal to me. Because I'll test that loyalty."

Jazir Pevinah
"My choice was made because it was this or death."

Bernard Pathon
It simple I love to build, anything as long as I build something. You offer me a place where a can do it

Bernard Pathon
So why I want it? It as simple as I want to build the best of everything, the best gun, the best sword

Jazir Pevinah
"And if what I choose to do and who I am goes against your sense of morality what then?"

Bernard Pathon
And of course the first tp get the best will be you

Jazir Pevinah
is flattered by what Bernard said, won't lie and say he isn't. Licks lips lightly as mulls over Bernard's goals and can't deny having someone beholden to him who could craft would only be a benefit.

Bernard Pathon
I'm not a fighter, I build tools and what you do with my tools is not my problem. As long as you can chalenge me to do beter

Jazir Pevinah
"You don't need to be a fighter. We should not talk here about this though. I could get you killed by being so open about this...will you follow me home?"

Bernard Pathon
yes

Bernard Pathon
grab hes stuff and stand

Jazir Pevinah
uncrosses ankles and then stands, putting the gun away out of sight.

They went to Jazir appartement

Jazir Pevinah
holds the door open for him to let him inside and then closes it after he'd stepped inside.

Bernard Pathon
step in the appartement

Jazir Pevinah
"At the very least you're welcome in here...to craft in a safe place and rest in a safe place. Near the computer there is a crafting area you can use."

Jazir Pevinah
"Actually nevermind."

Jazir Pevinah
"There is a ritual alter."

Jazir Pevinah
looks bemused.

Jazir Pevinah
"But I might get a crafting area soon."

Bernard Pathon
look impress

Jazir Pevinah
"Ah...no I have a portable crafting device on my person..."

Jazir Pevinah
pats self down.

Jazir Pevinah
"That's why I did not get one for the apartment."

Jazir Pevinah
"Given I can't use it I can see if I can give it to you."

Jazir Pevinah
offers it to him to see what he thinks.

Bernard Pathon
sure I just want to be beter before touching that big pieces but I'll build all I can and give it for you.

Bernard Pathon
look a the portable crafting table and was really happy

Bernard Pathon
lets see if its work good

Jazir Pevinah
"So a safe place to use that and also you're free to use it wherever so you do not have to search places out that have them."

Jazir Pevinah
nods to self. Is impressed Bernard followed him home. Hasn't had anyone besides Mathias in his home in a long time. Forgot how it felt to...socialize.

Jazir Pevinah
"I can always buy myself another if I get the urge to tinker again but my main skills are programming and hacking."

Jazir Pevinah
"If you have the patience for it there's a fishing spot near the tv. If you manage to catch anything decent you can always sell it for extra money. Although if I do become your Sire you would be free to ask me for money if you needed it anytime."

Bernard Pathon
hand some gun that he build there

Jazir Pevinah
takes the guns that Bernard had built so quickly and grins.

Jazir Pevinah
"These are good quality too, I'll put them up on the market and see what we get for them."

Bernard Pathon
Do you use sword?

Jazir Pevinah
nods at Bernard.

Jazir Pevinah
"I do."

Bernard Pathon
OK I've learn of a place where I can find part I'll go there to see

Jazir Pevinah
"The other weapons you've made are up on the market. If you do decide you want to be more than human then search me out here and ask. I'll answer any questions you have about it before we do anything too. It's safe to talk here."

Post under the permission of Jazir Pevinah the new sire

The next evening was realy nice, no cloud we can see the star and there was almost no one in the street. In front of the appartement building he took a deep breath and walk in. In front of the door he knock 3 time.

- Its Bernard.

The knock on the door had him kicking his feet off of the sofa, putting the controller down on the pure glass coffee table and stretching. The words that followed the knock had him off the couch and over to the door rather enthusiastically. He was coming to enjoy Bernard's company and the other man's endearing courage and friendliness reminded him of all the good in the world.

He drew the door open wide, stepping back to invite Bernard in.

"It is so good to see you! Come on in!"

-Thanks !

Bernard walk in with a big bag in his hand who look quit heavy.

- I've brought a little something for you to sell and that table by the way, love it.

He open the work table and start to put some pieces together and he still work like all the little pieces was alive and the best tresor on heart.

- I have receive some of the part for you're bike the rest come tomorrow.

He closed the door after Bernard had entered the apartment, turning to watch him set up the portable crafting table. The familiar and competent way the other man went to work had him stepping closer and watching avidly. His brilliant orange eyes tracking every single motion and movement.

"I figured you would love it...that is fantastic that you are getting good use out of it. I don't even remember why I bought it...a passing fancy I suppose."

That was pretty normal, the desire to branch out and learn everything he could had never left him. Despite his natural aptitude for hacking and telepathy. The snippet of information about the part for his bike had him looking absolutely ecstatic. "I can't wait to see what you do with it!"

He raise his eyes with sparkle in it. He want to see the finishing look on that bike more than anybody its gonna be legend.

- Oh! yeah It gonna be a bad *** bike.

He was at his six gun and he was still going. putting them on the side as he finishing them. He open a soft drink, took a sip and continue his work.

Hearing what Bernard thought of the design they'd chosen for the bike and how he anticipated it would turn out excited him in a way nothing had in a long time. He'd lost enthusiasm for so much recently. The choice to leave the apartment and venture out into the city after Mathias had returned to him had been so difficult. The fear he'd felt, the self discouraging mental battle he'd held with himself...it had been the hardest choice in his entire life.

Even following Mathias back to the Fade hadn't been as difficult as stepping outside Beta Towers for the first time in a year. But the people he'd met on his wanderings had made it worth it. The changes that had happened to the Masquerade and the pervading secrecy had given him an unexpected freedom. Had made it possible to be accepted by several for who he was, what he was.

It was why he could stand there and watch Bernard work so single mindedly on what he was doing and consider the possibility of Siring the man. Because the fear of judgement, of bias and hate, he didn't believe it anymore. He didn't think Bernard would treat him any different, even knowing who it was he was trying to impress.

"So have you given any more thought to wanting to become a vampire? If you're still interested in it...there are some things we need to discuss first."

If he think about it? he only think about it ... and building stuff.

- Yeah I tought about it and I did'n change idea. I'm listening.

He put the gun on the side and sit in front of Jazir
