"I'd love to.  Mayhap get something absurdly fruity that comes with a small fruit salad in the glass," Forest spun her index finger in a circle with a grin.

Getting inside was simple, she just didn't expect a couple of passersby jumping on the bandwagon as well.  Still, at least she and Nika still had their weapons on them, which was the important thing.  She tilted her head at the music, listening to the beat for a moment.  "Good use of tempo and base . . . With this nice undercurrent of 80's horror movie sound track dread with the synth undertones.  I might have to find out who this band is and look them up."

Forest

Forest tilted her head as she sensed something coming from Nika.  It felt like the other blonde was pushing her will out in sort of intimidation method.  To a human, Forest reasoned it would have been pretty damn terrifying and made that instinctual part of the brain want to run in terror from what ever was doing this.

Some of the beings were becoming uneasy, but not enough for them to just cut their way to the front.  She did tilt her head though, it also meant that Nika wasn't one of Valerie's vampires.  Which could be a good thing all on its own.

"That leaves the normal way." Nika sighed. "Things like this remind me I'm just one of many sharks in the pond. I'm fine with getting carried by the currents then rather than going against the flow, this one time."

Forest was about to reply when she noticed the bouncers were checking others for weapons and making those that were armed check their weapons.  She saw Nika look her over to see if she had anything when she noticed the Colt Nika had holstered.  It was a nice gun, one that probably had a lot of memories and history behind it.  "You may not have to check it," Forest said in a soft voice as she began to tap her feet to the beat of the industrial rock of a band who liked NIN a little too much.

She didn't want her .44 taken away from her, that was sure as hell.  The two of them walked closer to the bouncers at the bar.

Forest bit her lip as she looked at their place in the line and then back at Nika.

"There's that, or we could just walk up and charm the bouncer."   Forest wondered if she could focus what Taro called her "sexiness" like she knew Gabe could do with her Lure.  "Or we could just pay the bouncer a tip and go in."

"I won't say I'm a music snob, because I will admit one of the best heavy metal acts that came from the states in the last twenty years has been a cartoon based parody band," Forest gnashed her teeth and narrowed her eyes.

"However, what that hack DJ Glitter Tits did on what he called a remix should have him locked away for assault, battery, and second degree murder!  I have been around to know what sound musical quality and technical ability sounds like, and that bawbag did not have it!"

She pressed her lips together, looked at the other vampire and chuckled. "Maybe I am a bit of a music snob."

"Well, it depends on if the music is good.  Like there's a difference between DJ Glitter Tits and New Retro Wave."

Forest pounded her right fist into the palm of her left hand to make her point.  "Bloody DJ Glitter Tits . . ."  She shook her head before looking at the looming building.  "This is almost cliche.  The whole club in an abandoned factory thing.  Could be fun though!"

Forest shook her head and answered, "Not me, hell, my inclination for insomnia came with me when I was killed.  Which is probably why I'm so stir crazy in the Spring and Summer, because the bloody sun was up so long and I would just have to be stuck at home."

She resisted the urge to look at Nika's screen, her curiosity be damned.  "Oh!  I love to dance.  I picked up ballet and tumbling ages ago and not only does it help physical training, it's bloody fun too."

Nika

The vampire gave Forest slightly skeptical look as she mentioned the very notion of things going downhill in America. This was the nation that fought a war on scale unimagined before, pulled through through a crisis that made it on brink of annihilation and then put those dozen or so guys on the Moon. But maybe she wasn't one to argue about the state of her adopted homeland as she took the nap around the peanut farmer's inauguration, and clearly long time must have passed by the time technology got so wondrously fascinating. 

Speaking of the devil, she of course had her smartphone around, a new useful tool in her wanderings. It certainly could be handy for the bar crawl.

"This neighborhood looks pretty great, no doubts, but let me look real quick for some place with this baby and save our time." She grinned, brandishing her smartphone with pride in one of her newest toys. "Just tell me what kind of stuff you're raring to see. I love the unknown so much when I'm fresh off grave like this that I love to go with people's flow."

Long nap syndrome, she loved to call it. Nika loved to live in the moment, let herself sweeped by the currents of society, human one and otherwise, unless she had a firm goal before her eyes. And the midnight was far off enough to not flip yet that tunnel vision switch on in her brain.

Forest

"Honestly, if you find a place with dancing and a decent DJ I'd be up for that."

After the whirlwind of the last 48 hours, blowing off steam on a dance floor seemed like a good idea.

Then something Nika said registered and Forest's eyes went wide.  "Fresh from the grave?  Like you went into a state of torpor or whatnot?"  She frowned and folded her arms across her chest.  "That would be a bloody useful ability."

"I mean, I had a fair share in savings at home, but the whole capitalism thing is sort of not working for the Yanks right now.  At least it was already starting to crumble when I accidentally drove here."

She did smile back as Nika exposed her fangs and shook the other vampire's hand.

"I go by Forest, but my friends call me Fore, and getting a drink seems like it could be a good idea."

Just as long as they don't have that orange juice from a can.  That stuff is bullshit.

The blonde raised an eyebrow at the other woman's words before tilting her head and folding her arms across her chest.

"Yeah, I visited the Columbia District yesterday.  It did seem very Septic, and not in a good way.  Normally I'm fine with Americans, but that place was too capitalized for my taste.  This seems to be more of my speed."

Forest looked around at the monsters around them and smiled.  "The monsters are hiding in plain sight here at least."

Nika

Huh, another stranger in this strangeland in this place? At least that's what she deduced immediately from the lack of one of those masks. And immediately picked up on that gal's vibe. She didn't mean the 1980s look, but she could readily feel there was another vampire in the midst. She wasn't one to beat around the bush, especially given the city's downright jadeness about the weird shit compared to her previous country, so she just approached the woman without much hesitation.

"Eh, took a nap and woke up in the future too? Or that's your style?" The pale woman in a hoodie commented about the other vampire's sense of fashion with a wide grin. "Heh, you probably fit here more than I. Unless there's a gym around."

Forest

Forest smiled as a pale woman in a hoodie approached her and spoke of her fashion choices.

"Pretty much my style.  It's a mishmash of things that generally includes black."  She grinned as she rubbed the back of her neck.  "And I kind of like the whole Goth aesthetic too, even though it's kind of cliche.  So you ended up here too?"

"I'll admit that I'm fond of them," his breath was hitching from Sakura's intense kiss and a red flush appeared on his bronze cheeks, making his steel colored eyes bright.

His fingers trailed to the top of Sakura's top and he smirked.  "If we keep this up, we're not going to get to dinner or the bath."

Emiya

She's distracting me on purpose, he thought dimly as Sakura's cool, soft lips pressed against his own.

One hand moved to her lower back while the other entangled in the back of her thick, silky violet hair as he returned the kiss.

I guess I'll let her distract me for now.

Emiya

Emiya smirked as he felt cool, slim fingers run down his spine before trailing up his neck and then his chin.

He noticed her wavering as she stood on her toes and he wondered if she was doing it for his benefit, to be more "real" in his eyes.  He ran his fingers through her hair and smiled down at her.  "You know that I know that you can keep perfect balance with your abilities.  While I appreciate the fact you're putting in that effort, I'd rather you be comfortable."

Something had come up for Taro at the office, but he gave Forest leave to go ahead to Halloween Town.  She parked her car at the appointed hotel and decided to walk around until Taro arrived.  Ugg, I can't believe I said that last night, she thought as she adjusted her duster.

She was wearing her steel toed boots, but decided on clothing that would catch attention.  There was a black, pleated skirt that ended right at her fingertips if she had her hands down to her sides, a violet corset top that showed off her arms, and had even styled her hair using bits of temporary violet hair chalk to recreate a look she was fond of during the 80's.

However, this place was fantastic.  She almost expected Marylin Manson to be piped through the town, and was a little sad that it wasn't.  However, she was fascinated and slightly taken aback by the variety of beings wearing "human" masks.

The blonde chuckled at his reaction.

"Honestly, I just want to check out Halloween Town in general.  It's my favorite holiday!"

She grinned and asked, "Should we wear costumes?"
