Tenele kissed him rather passionatly. Those stupid feelings were taking over her mind. Why did she have all these strong urges to kiss him.

Tenele rose up. "You know Vlad, I do believe I lust after you," she said and grinned.

She sat up, looking down at him and then looking around trying to play it off.

Talon went down stairs, trying to ignore mental images that refused to leave his mind, and went to the bar to order a very large drink of anything that might dull his senses.

The bartender handed it too him and he took a swig, sitting down in a seat and leaning against the bar with on arm.

"Is that so?" Vlad replied suavely, heat kindling inside him. He raised both hands to her face and kissed her deeply, then fell back into the mattress with a smile. "You're a brave one, getting affectionate with me when my hunger is so strong," he half-praised and half criticized her.

Tenele smiled at him resting her hands on either side of his head. "Well, if figured if you were going to bite me you would have done so while I was sleeping? No? I mean, it would be less likely for me to resist if I was sleeping..."

She sighed tiredly. "Besides I have no blood left to give."

Nickole yawned and stretched to her full 3 inches.
"It's still dark & I'm bored," she thought. She decided to head down to the bar, maybe someone else could be there, too.

When she reached the bar, slightly glowing in her bored, calm state, she saw Talon. Fluttering down on the barstool beside him, she said, "Hi, pal."

Talon glanced at the fairy and smiled. "Good morning little one," he said, taking another sip of his drink.

He wasn't a morning drinker, but he really didn't care at the moment. He knew he shouldn't say anything, or think anything about his sister and Vlad being together. But, it still hadn't settled with him. He wouldn't interfer though, he would stay out of it.

Talon didn't really want to talk, it seemed, so Nickole sat there quietly looking at the bar and the people in it. She spotted Vlad and Tenele. No wonder he's not being too talkative, she thought.

Vlad looked up at Tenele thoughtfully. "So you say," he grinned, but there was no threat behind it. "You ought to be drinking water," he said after looking distracted for a moment. He began moving out from under her to go bring some from the water basin provided in the room.

Tenele smiled and rolled over onto her side, yawning slightly. "Water?" she asked, pulling to covers close to her and glancing at the water basin. She grinned wondering how much work she could actually make Vladimir do. She decided not to, since he was hungry after all.

"You need food," she commented. "Why don't you go get something to eat... and I'm going to wonder around 'til I find the bathing room and try and get this mud and grime off... Then I'll eat and drink something. Okay?"

She rolled out of bed, half falling really. She stood up and stars exploded in front of her eyes in blues, reds, whites, and purples. She fell back into a sitting postition on the side of the bed with a sigh.

Vlad smirked at Tenele. "You're dehydrated. Just do as I say and drink, Maiden Girl," he ordered, shoving a cup of water into her hand. "I feel generous, so I'll get you some food. Don't waltz around, unless you want to pass out." He tossed his hand dismissively and strolled out of the room, closing the door behind him.

He walked down the stairs to the inn's tavern/lobby, where he saw Talon and Nickole. Breadstuffs and dried fruit were arranged on a table in the corner as a continental breakfast. Vlad felt strangely uneasy approaching Talon and Nickole, but that was exactly why felt he had to make a point to himself of walking casually up to them and directing a mock-salute to Talon. "Hitting the bottle at this hour, Fearless Leader?" he observed with arched eyebrows.

Tenele glared at the door for a moment, but a slight smirk came to her lips afterwards. It was rather funny to see Vladimir care so much, something that hardly anyone saw in him. Mostly they were running with fear that he would eat them.

She sighed, glancing at the water for a moment before taking a sip. It wasn't as bad as she expected. She had expected it to taste old, since the last inn she was in was something just short of a ditch in the road.

She continued to drink, telling herself that it wasn't because Vladimir said so. But, in reality it was. If she had her way she would be on the road somewhere, ready for her next mission.

Food. Her stomach growled rather loudly and it just made her all the more hungry when she heard the sound. "Bah," she muttered. "He better hungry or I'll be trying to eat him."

Talon turned an easy gaze to Vlad. He was wondering what to say to him, but nothing seemed to cross his mind. He turned back to his drink and finished the last sip.

The bartender took the glass, warily glancing at the vampire next to the elf. "I usually don't, but seeing my sister in your arms sort of brings out the alchoholic in me," Talon smirked. "I'm done, however."

Kami had finally woken up. He sat up, yawned and stretched, then nudged Kaze out of her sleep. When she groaned awake, he addressed her, "We should get up and eat something--OW!" Kaze had pounded him to the floor, temporarily forgetting that he had comforted her in her sleep and she was okay with it.

"Oops.. sorry.. forgot it was you." was her plain apology. She was still tired and as she got to her feet, she felt like lead brocks were tied to her ankles. Kami got up rubbing his head.

"Yea..." he grummbled and they freshened up for the morning. Being rather sluggish and stiff, they somehow made it downstiars looking their best.

Vlad blinked at Talon, as if bewildered. The confusion quickly fell from his expression as he showed Talon a twisted smile. "If I'd been aware we had an audience, I'd have put up more of a performance," he said disappointedly, turning to the table of food and collecting some rolls and butter. "Watch yourself; elven livers aren't terribly resilient," he smirked as he strolled out of the room."

Talon shifted his gaze at Vlad, wondering why he was gathering food. He knew that the vampire hadn't changed his appitite, the only one that could keep him alive. It must be for Tenele, he thought.

Talon was done drinking anyway, one drink was enough for him. He didn't feel like slowing his reaction time, or killing more brain cells than he had already.

Vlad walked back up toward Tenele's room, feeling the blood pound in his head as he neared the peak of the stairs. He was sorely tempted to pause and lean on the banister for support, but his pride forbade him and he proceeded to Tenele's room. The door opened telekinetically and swung easily shut behind him as he walked back to the bed, rolls in hand. "Such boring, solid food," he commented idly as he stood a roll on top of her head.
