D'aw. I love you too. And I can wait. College is seriously getting on my tail. Though, I seriously doubt your intros are short and lame. :/

[[ <3 I thought it was going to be short. But then I got all these ideas as I started o.O Goodness, college is just being a pain for the both of us. Are you doing online classes or on the campus? I have no idea where she works or how New Orleans is so hopefully you can make an introduction with what I gave you. D:]]
The streets were always a bit more crowded at this time of year. I strutted down the pavement with my hands in my pockets, green eyes glancing at anyone who decided to stare back. It wasn't that I wasn't seemingly forthcoming or friendly; it was just at this time of night, I chose not to associate with any unlucky person that passed by.
It was only five years ago that I was bitten. I wasn't like the other vampires in my coven; trust me, I was far from them. My self control was hung by a thread, and not too long ago, threatened to rip any time the scent of blood came to my nostrils. I decided then that no matter how badly I'd rather hide myself from the world - seeing as I am not who I am today by choice - I should, in a way, 'embrace it'. That's how these walks began.
I stayed away from the humans as though I feared them when I took these walks down New Orleans streets. Which sounded odd, I know, to have a vampire seemingly fear them. But I didn't fear them at all; I feared my control wasn't strong enough to get closer. So, I always stayed on the curb on the pavement, keeping to myself. Soon, I got used to the company of humans from the distance, to where I didn't feel as though I wanted to eat them through out the whole walk.
The thing was, today I was on the edge of the sidewalk. I was passing by every human. Brushing against their shoulders, some banging into my back in a drunken state. It was all to much; the scents. My jaw was clenching and my eye was even twitching at some point or another.
The vampires always laughed at my way of coping. But, I found this more relaxing - when I was farther on the street. Why had I chosen to come closer? Finally, I couldn't handle the feeling of suffocating no longer, as a girl laughing with her friends innocently accidentally bumped gingerly against my arm. Immediately, the desire for a taste came back to haunt me - and the poor girl beside me.
Looking back at her, my eyes became a glowed a bright red, my fangs elongating. She shrieked, causing a commotion and everyone's heads turned. I growled to myself in anger; I thought I'd have control by now! Taking a whole year just to walk down these streets; see the same people drink their life away, just from afar. What made so close any different?
I ran then. The feeling of defeat over the monster ravaging any human part of me that I could still hold on to. Hold on to for now at least. Soon I'll be just like the other vampires in my coven, soulless and evil. Emotion brought a knot in my stomach as I finally found my way to a quieter end on the streets. I slowed to a normal pace. I could already hear sirens back there. What, was my five second - probably less - scene that big of a deal?
I tried to hold myself together. They'll think she's imagining things, right? I mean, no one else saw what happened. And she only got a glimpse of my fangs. I swallowed. Just a glimpse will steal her sleep at night, or take away the safety she felt in her own home.
I cursed under my breath; wishing I could get over the empathy already and just be careless like the rest of the vampires. They didn't live with the knot in their stomach and a lump in their throats, now did they? I stopped my walking, chewing on my lip as I sat down on the curb, leaning my back against the light pole so my legs could stretch out on the curb.
Seeing as the scene I made, I wasn't in a hurry to rush back to the coven. The last thing I needed was more snickers from the other vampires for how new I was to this. I pursed my lips; trying to get my mind off of it by thinking of more pleasant things. Like my life before I was this thing.
This uncontrollable monster.

I live on campus, going to on-campus classes.
Thank god my first class for tomorrow doesn't start until 1:40.
Also, I've never been to New Orleans. Just read books. o3o

It was the end of the night and there were no more customers coming into the shop -- or calling for that matter -- so she decided to close up. Sylvari shut off the lights as she went through each room and she locked the door to the server room. Though, it wasn't really necessary. Even if somebody could get in there, they couldn't hack into her systems at all. She had made it so that whenever she shut off her main computer, the servers froze in their spots, hence how she got her hacker name, Frozensoul.
Though, her friends also called her that. Both the ones that were aware of her hacker skills and those who weren't.
As she left the building, she locked it behind her and slipped the keys into the pockets on her black leather jeans as she pulled on an ice-blue leather jacket. Some of her electric-blue dyed hair was caught underneath the leather and she flipped it up and over so it rested along the back. She ran her fingers through her gel-spiked hair once before heading off towards her home.
Today had been a busy day. So with no time to rest, let alone eat, Sylvari was stiff and starving. With a groan, she stretched her arms out in front of her before moving her arms up to stretch out her shoulders and upper back. Then, her mild telepathic abilities picked up the faintest feeling of trying to think positive from somebody she passed. She paused and cocked her head to one side. Black eyes glanced around before settling on one man sitting on the curb with his back against a pole.
Cocking her head to one side, Sylvari walked back over to him. Her black combat books scuffing the sidewalk as she stopped and knelt down beside him.
"You okay man?" she asked, resting her elbows on her knees.

[[ Aaah. I remember now, you saying you lived on the campus. |D Online classes has it's good parts, but it's definitely just a bit more stressful. You have no reminders of work. *o* ]]
My arms crossed over my chest as my eyes started drooping. I wasn't tired - Oh, how I missed feeling tired - I just was thinking. I was close to forgetting the sirens wailing and the girls crying and screaming and shaking and freaking out - I could hear it all with my heightened senses. Either way, I was so caught up in my thoughts that I felt as though this whole vampire nonsense I was stuck in was just a dream. The idea of going back in time, taking that moment back where I decided to go looking for my pet dog (Why my characters always have dogs, I'll never know. 8I ) in the middle of the night. In the long run, I'd rather have the dog die from not having come home then me lose my life to this.
"You okay, man?"
I turned my head to look at her, legs coming off the curb in a flash and standing up. I didn't want this girl freaked out by me too. I casually backed away a step, my feet meeting the streets pavement.
"I'm... I'm fine."
I lied. What, did the girl think I was going to vent my feelings? I wasn't a girl; I didn't get emotional over stuff like this. I was supposed to shrug it off. Tilting my head to the side, green eyes looked at her in confusion. "Why?"

Sylvari watched him spring to his feet. Black eyes blinking lazily. She stood up slowly and cocked her head to one side. The demoness could tell he was lieing, but didn't want to call him out on it. She crossed her arms against her chest and shrugged one shoulder.
"Just a feeling," she replied. "Though, you also looked kind of down." Sylvari didn't want to add that she could sense -- somewhat -- that he was attempting to think positive. Or was it happy? Malues, she couldn't tell. Her skills in Telepathy weren't as strong as Ariskye's or... everybody else's really.

I swallowed, wondering why I didn't have the claustrophobic - like feeling with her that I had with every other human. The feeling like I had to hold my breath, or take more steps back so they'd be safe.
"Well the feelings wrong." I said, rubbing a hand down my jaw as I glanced back the way I came from. The sirens have stopped; I didn't hear the faint sound of crying anymore. Hopefully, the scene was done so I could get home with out the looks from the other vampires that so desperately needed to tease me with every mistake I made.

Sylvari cocked her head down and to the side a bit when she saw his eyes glanced in a different direction. She had heard the sirens from before, but the sounds had ceased. A fleeting thought wondered at the source before it vanished. Oh well. Her black eyes were still focused on this male before her, watching as he rubbed his jaw.
"Probably," she agreed softly.

My eyes looked back at her, green eyes searching her ex
pression. "Why?" I asked again, backing away a step so I was farther out on the street. "Why, did you see something?" I said, clenching my jaw.
What was I saying? Of course, she didn't see anything! The only person that saw anything worth being suspicious about was the girl. I swallowed, glaring. "I'm fine. I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, alright?" I said, taking a deep breath before croaking out one last, "I'm fine."

He backed out further into the street. Even though this man was a stranger, she spared a glance down both sides of the road to see if anything vehicular was coming. Nothing so far, but if he decided to back up further, she was going to have to step in. Sylvari met his glare with an icy one of her own.
After his continuous "I'm fine" tirade, she snorted. "I doesn't look like it," she said.

I ran a hand over my head, my short black hair soft against my palm. I sighed, my shoulders slumping. I just wished she'd walk away. Or maybe I should walk away? But what if I didn't want to? Walking away would mean going to the coven and seeing their faces. They weren't there, but they probably new I made a fool of myself. It was a habit these days.
"Well lets just pretend that I am." I said, slipping my hands in my pockets and getting off the street to stand beside her back by the curb. "No one will bother me that way."
By no one, I meant every vampire in the coven.

Sylvari shook her head, the blue dyed, gelled spikes swaying int he air. "There is no use pretending since I did sense something when I walked by you," she said. "And I'm bothering you now so that last comment is invalid." Watching as he moved so he now stood back on the curb instead of the street, she felt the muscles in her legs relax a bit since they gotten all tense.

[[ It's okay. c: ]]
She sensed something while she walked by? I lifted an eyebrow but didn't comment on it. The girl all together was strange. I still wasn't feeling any desire for her the way I had with other humans that I had walked by tonight. If vampires were real, obviously other stuff that I learned as a mortal were real too.
But then again. I couldn't ask anyone. The vampires would just laugh because of my being too naive and new to this different world for them. Which brought me to finally comment on the oddness of this all.
"You could sense how I feel?" I said, giving her a crooked grin. Maybe I could ask her more with out making it known about my own little secrets of who I was. "What are you, a mage?" I had a teasing tone, but that was just to prevent suspicion.

Sylvari offered a crooked grin of her own, but she made sure her fangs weren't visible since they couldn't retract. "Mage? Naw. I am not magicked," she replied. "I have the slightest gift of Telepathy." Though, she wasn't going to go into detail about her abilities since he didn't ask really. Just this small reveal would be good enough for now.

[[Ohkay<3 ... have fun? |D]]
My smiled faltered at her words. She didn't hesitate to tell me that she had this 'gift'. Did she not worry about, from her point of view, this mere human fearing her and running to the police? They tended to do that, their small minds actually believing that other small minded human cops could help them with a super natural being.
"You don't seem to care about me knowing about this unique detail about yourself." I said, my eyes looking at her warily.

"I could honestly care less about what other people think of me," she replied. The scales on her arms, underneath the leather of her jacket, were bristling slightly from his comment. Though she had only mentioned the small part of her 'gift' because this male felt different than the average human who were prone to overreact about everything.

"Hmm." I grunted, my eyes speculating her for another moment before rubbing a hand over my jaw once more. I guess it was an odd habit I did. I didn't know whether to act like I believed her or not. I believed her - I believed anything was possible after being bitten - but would a normal human? Nope.
So now I had to act like I thought she was a lunatic. But how to do so with out making it seem obvious? This was all too complex. I wished I could just admit to her what I was so I actually had someone to know that wasn't a vampire. Life was getting pretty lonely. "Well then. Good luck with that." Was all I said, but I didn't make a move to leave. At least she was talking to me with out snickering or giving me odd looks that I couldn't read.
I really hated my coven.
