Artists are only as good as their materials

[Allison Taylor]

Allison tuned out what wasn't her business as she looked through clothes. "Russian sounds good, Night cooks a lot so she's made all sorts of food from different countries." The blond said almost as excited about food as she was about clothes. She always enjoyed what Night made since like most creative things Alli was terrible at it. "And I can invite whomever i want since its a privvate party. But that just means we pick who can come so we don't have to worry about the drunken idiots who come in on occasion."

"What shall we get?" She started asking, leaving the clothes behind. "Pelmeni? Kasha? Abzhorka?" She asked with a little french accent coming out passed her english though she was saying russian dishes. "I didn't even think there was a Russian restaurant near by." She said walking with the group. "And we are going shopping right after right?" She said babbling as she usually did but no one was telling her to shut up. Night told her that even though she talked to much it never was something she hated. Something about Alli was always inviting even if she talked everyones head off.

[Lucien Argeneau]

Luc was only slightly concerned and suspicious of Artemis as she move towards a Russian looking bouncer but he didn’t say anything about it as she excused herself. It wasn’t like him to pry into others business unless it concerned Kitty because it was his job to know her business. “I’ve never had Russian food they’re not exactly a huge Russian population here or from where I am from.” Luc said. “Are you sure you wish to treat us? I mean with the four of us eating the bill could run up quite high” he said. He was being polite as he didn’t want her spending her hard earned money on three people who she had just met.

He looked to Kitty as she touched his arm as if to say ‘are you okay’ with his eyes not speaking the words but communicating them loud and clear with body language. “Kitty I really can not imagine you with furs then you would really be just like a cat.” He said slightly joking with her and a smile creeping across his face.

“If these two are up to wherever we are going I guess I’m going too” he said. He looked to Allison as she listed Russian foods with a French accent. If he didn’t know any better he would have thought from the way she was speaking that those were all French foods but they were not. He sighed as she asked if they were going to go shopping again right after. “I suppose, and here I thought we were done and I could distract you with food. “ he said with a smile saying that he was only kidding. “You girls and your shopping how long does it take to find an outfit?” he asked

[Artemis Darnichov]

Artemis looked at them and could see the wheels turning in their heads,the questions like coulds popping up. what did she do with the big bouncer? Giving them a sweet smile she gestured towards the big bouncer. whatever you want to eat, its a large menu. she shrugged and looked at each of them witha sweet smile.

She was making friends, oh only if her father could see her now. Artemis chuckled and nodded. i sort of own it. she said coughing a bit so they could fast forward the subject.

The girl seemed really in the need of shopping and Artemis just hoped she didnt walk them off their path to shopping world. Artemis looked at theboy and blushed. Feeling the big package of cash burning in her jacket's pockets, Artemis shook her head with a smile. i could buy food for the whole mall and yet dont feel a thing. Money isnt that important to me. she didnt want to be a spoiled rich brat.

Leaving them be she walked back, tellinf the bouncer she wanted a table for four with everything that could describe luxury but just lunch. She turned back to wait for thethree new people she met.

[Kitty Warshaw]

Now remember Kitty, she told herself, she's treating everyone to lunch. If anything did happen Luc was there and she knew when it came down to her safety Luc was an iron wall no one could cross. She smiled as he offered to pay, he was a gentleman but her thoughts of him subsided as furs danced once again through her mind. "Kitty I really can not imagine you with furs then you would really be just like a cat." at the sound of her name she snapped out of her fuzzy trance and looked up at the blonde male standing next to her. "You're such a dork." she giggled as Alli named a bunch of foods that were foreign to her ears.

"Is it terrible that all this talk of food is making me want french fries?" she asked as the thought of McDonald's salty french fries wafted in to her mind. Although the thought of trying a new style of food sounded great she couldn't help but crave a nice large hot fry with sweet and sour sauce. OMG! She shouted in her mind. This is only making me hungrier, she thought biting her lip. It was noticeable that she'd slipped into her own world safe in the contours of her mind the only thing that would cure her was-

"You girls and your shopping how long does it take to find an outfit?" Her eyes shot to his face as she took in his words. She still needed something to wear for the party. Sure she had lots of nice dresses at home but this! She was going to be going out in front of older men and women and she needed to look good.

"I need a dress." she groaned quietly as Missy walked away to talk to the creepy Russian bouncer. They were eating...near him? Just the thought of being near him scared the hell out of her.

[Allison Taylor]

Allison just followed alone. She didn't want to interrupter and she didn't want to question what was going on. She just smiled as she did and stayed focused on her own thoughts until her attention was needed. Though she usually would be as nosy as possible but with where she was, what she was, and who she was surrounded by without Alex or Night it was in her best wishes not to do something that could get her hurt now that she had already bumped into and invited a vampyre and her gorgeous french feline protector. But this Artemis girl was intriguing on her own. The very name was an interesting feat but she wouldn't be able to call her that.

Allison remembered what little she could about Night's mother. She could have very well been mistaken for an angel, or even Nyx. Artemis was as beautiful as Night was becoming. From what she had known of the streak haired woman, Artemis was soft spoken, gentle, and kind but very honest, and practically perfect. But judging by the significant similarities, physically, between Night and her mother, Alli wondered if Artemis had been as "energetic" about certain things as Night was. If she had a wild side in her youth or if she'd always been so gentle. Alli smiled as her thoughts amused her as they found a table to sit at.
