Within the Northern vicinity of the city, the wealthy gather behind meticulously trimmed hedges and high-class architecture. The pristine streets are paved with stone and the storefronts are brightly lit and inviting - for the right clientele. In the North, every establishment is eager to cater to the rich and the wealthy. Many such places are used to the sometimes peculiar requests of the otherworldly but here there is little that money cannot buy - whether it happens to be illegal or merely involves looking the other way. Vampires and Dark Hunters are often found upon these Northern streets, their long lives often contributing to their sizable wealth which allows them the luxuries that the North provides.

SHE WAS BORN AND TAUGHT TO ROAR.

she was born and taught to roar
She's worn her hematite droplet earrings for her evening out, reveling in the magical qualities of one of her favorite protective stones. Andy's silver blood thrums warmly with pleasure at the connection between her and her element, the way it always did when she wore crystals and gems associated with fire. Wearing the hematite gave her confidence (perhaps more than she needed, considering she was a self-confident creature by nature), and so she'd dressed in her favorite black skirt and maroon top - her shoes, however, were classy flats that could also be considered sensible for nighttime wear. Andy Aithne was far too wary of those she surrounded herself with to ever fully take away her ability to move with agility... not that it wasn't easy enough to just kick heels off and run.

The brunette girl had decided that the Voodoo Room was a nice enough place to be her regular haunt, and so she'd hailed a cab and headed in that direction once more. Her lips curl into a grin at the recollection of her recent alcohol induced sexual escapades with one Vampire named Aaron who she had met at the aforementioned bar, and she silently hopes that she'll be introduced to someone just as interesting this evening.

The cab ride is a brief one and Andy tosses a few bills to her driver before exiting and making her way towards the entrance of the Voodoo Room. Silently, she notes that Aaron's Softail is missing from the parking lot, which would probably pan out to be a good thing. Andy rarely spent more than one night with the same person, and it would be awkward explaining that to the blonde Vampire as she was making her move on another potential one night stand.

The young barkeep notices Andy as soon as she enters and the brunette Witch can't help but giggle at the grimace that crosses over his face. They didn't have much of a history, but it mainly involved Andy sneaking from the bar with bottles and flipping him the bird as she took her leave each time. Honestly, she was surprised he hadn't banned her from the establishment thus far, but she figured it was probably because she bought enough alcohol to keep the place afloat herself. Her amber eyes rove the interior of the bar briefly before falling on a platinum blonde she thought she had known from another life.

And she had.

"No shit. Evangeline Gunn." Her grin widens as she approaches the Vampire, an arm snaking over the woman's shoulder before she turns her gaze to the Dark Hunter that had taken a seat next to her oldest (literally) friend. "And who is this dashing gentleman?" Andy hadn't come across Eve since her last reincarnation, but now was not the time or place to bring up old sentiments, especially when a Hunter was sitting a mere two feet away. They could save their real reunion for another, safer time.
