    Emily has several tattoos:
    - a sleeve of vines and flowers starting on her right shoulder and ending at her wrist
    - a collection of stars on her left wrist, tapering up her arm
    - flowers on her right foot around her ankle
    - A crescent moon on her left shoulderblade

    The warm Spring evening was bright and clear across Sacramento - a perfect weekend for the start of the classic car shows for the year. Scores of models from dozens of owners, ranging from the Great Depression right through to the modern day. The show had been on all day, but after the sunset huge floodlights were keeping the event going.

    On one end of a row of muscle cars sits a fine, exquisitely restored '67 Mustang in electric blue - carefully coloured to match the neon hair of the owner. The hood is up showing an immaculately polished engine under the artificial lights.

    Said owner is munching on a chilli dog and wandering back to her car, looking at all the other vehicles everyone is proudly showing off.

    Emily loved events like this. Meet new people, find new sources of parts - it was always great. Built up her business profile too.

    Maybe she might spot other car fans she knew here.

    This is an open scene - I've tweaked timings slightly so not to restrict those respiratorially challenged! Come enjoy motors old and new!

    An alluring young beauty, Sonnie Wu is 5'2" and lean-bodied, with a light, nimble step and eyes that seem to say "Hey, you know what would be fun?" Her reddish-brown hair often seems slightly unkempt, and an amused smile regularly plays on her lips. Sonnie is usually dressed casually or for outdoor activity. She almost always wears a pair of red leather tabi boots.

    To the eyes of Fae, Sonnie's feet are like those of a monkey: Toes as long as fingers, with one on each foot being opposable like a thumb. A long monkey tail protrudes from the base of Sonnie's spine, covered in hair the same shade as her head. It appears to be prehensile, and often moves to react to her mood and dances about when she speaks, like people who "talk with their hands." Finally, her brown eyes turn golden.

    Sonnie Wu did not own a car. She never gave them much thought, truthfully. But the smell of chili dogs had lured her to the scene. Her messenger bag, as usual, was slung across her back. Dressed in blue jeans, red tabi boots, a red t-shirt with some sort of Chinese writing on the front, and a matching black knit scarf and beanie, the young Asian-American woman strolled around admiring the shiny cars. She couldn't tell you any of their names or models, but they were sure pretty to look at.

    It was a good thing her hands were full with a chili dog and a paper cup of cheap beer. It helped prevent the Beast from touching anything, but at the rate she ate, that hinderance wouldn't last long.

    First thing you will notice about Ale is the abundance of her tattoos. They go from her face all the way to her feet, and not much is left bare. The second thing? Her strong Italian accent.

    A car show. The Savage hadn’t been sold on the idea, but her Herd pointed out that she had a nice car and should show it off. And while showing off wasn’t her thing, mixing with the Kine would be a welcome change from the drama of undead politics. And who knows, maybe she’d find something for herself.

    So she had the Torino detailed, everything on the car shining and scratch free. The interior as perfect as the day it was made.

    The Italian herself? She was looking good as well. Black leather pants paired with a black vest, the only three buttons attached. A black bra peeked out and steeled toed boots completed her look. Her skin had a healthy glow to it, pale, but alive.

    She leaned against the front of her car, one leg crossed idly across the other, watching the crowd.

    Her skin turns a slate-blue and her hair bone white. The whites of her eyes are blood red, the irises are purple with cat-slit black pupils. The helix of her ears elongate out 2" inches ending in a tip. Her features sharpen and her figure has an unnatural, inhuman litheness that can be intellectually disturbing.

    Her skin brings to mind Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, or Asian races, though her high cheek bones and sharp facial structure don't match. Most assume she is of mixed ancestry given the pale blonde hair. Alias Mary Maniscalo.

    Circe had two cars that she could show off to this. And while she might have gotten a laugh out of showing up in a Volkswagen the mechanics had finished the cheaper tweaks to her bigger ride. She'd needed no work to restore the old parts, just regular usage of Glamour to bring back the red shine. So she might as well show of her Charger. Further tweaks could wait.


    For now she drove up to the end of the row of muscle cars to park beside the blue. Not for contrast but because it was an open spot. And what of the blonde Fairest herself? She'd opted for a crimson pleather trench coat to go with denim shorts that ended above her knees and a grey tunic that complimented her grey combat boots. She wasn't wearing heels while getting the feel for her ride's new adjustments.


    Slamming her door, Circe leaned both arms on to her car's roof to look over the blue beauty parked beside her crimson car. She whistled, "Niiiiiiice ride."

    Cole didn't own a nice ride (well, not one that could be shown here), but he'd worked on enough cars to know quality. Besides, with recent events he could use something with a lot of noise.

    His outfit was pretty simple; jeans, work boots, and a shirt with an Anvil on it. It'd finally become warm enough to go without a jacket.

    Circe was there, of course; he shouldn't have been surprised, given what he knew already. And a woman he hadn't met- she seemed quite.... Well, something. Enticing? The Ling couldn't find the right word.

    "Hey lass. Shoulda guessed you'd be here- nice car; you've been holding out on me! Woulda loved to work on this with ya." He also took a moment to nod at the other woman's rather... Well, sweet ride.

    "Surprised you've managed to keep everything in order- difficult finding the right stuff for something that unique."

    When vulgar magic is cast, the frequency of the oscillation of the dark fluid surges until the shadows arrange themselves in a solid black halo around Winter's head, the white light darkens into a fiery black sunlight and his eyes are set ablaze with vivid incandescence.

    Coming here had been a good choice, he thought, his hands stuffed inside the pockets of his blue jeans as he strolled between exhibits of cars that put his humble Mustang to shame. Some of the wheels wouldn't look out of place in a Bond flick, to be fair.
    The car show was a much appreciated divertissement from the daily drudgery of his routine, it offered him an occasion to relax.

    There she was, beautiful, perfect, sexy, maybe a tad over-painted, but it was a minute detail when every single curve was in its right place. The Guardian circles around, leery eyes glued on the leather.
    The 1970 Torino GT was a great car.

    Field studies were something Prosper employed on the regular. With a new focus to break the chains of the Curse, going back to his roots without a transaction of Vitae or business attached was as good excuse as any to simply enjoy himself.

    The Savage rolls up almost silently in the metallic RS 5, slipping out as he flooded the walking corpse with the imitation of vitality. The Beast cannot ignore the presence of the Prince, with Garrett squinting over the top of his vehicle as it clawed his psyche to get back inside. The cowardice is ground into the dirt with his heel as he saunters over, knowing smirk on his face while he looks over her polished custom ride.

    Garrett's vehicle was nothing special, with no personal element attached to it beyond his interest with technology. It was precisely what a wealthy twenty-three year old would be driving in 2019, and being a top tier sports car, the speed was nothing to scoff at. "Didn't expect to see you here," he chuckles. Alessandra would recognize his accent is barely present as the Taifa slips into the roll of a young American, even adopting the conjunctions no Kindred had ever heard him speak. Were those jeans? And a pullover? His hair wasn't even that meticulous, with a few loose curls falling around his ear.

    A courtesy, though he always had time for his cousin. If the deadly predator wants the vampire to shoo he would be able to easily detect the hint. He wasn't about to interrupt a Hunt.

    He smiles and offers a friendly wave to the taller woman and her strangely accented companion. His eyes glint a bit as he locks onto Emily Makerith 's Mustang, by far the most interesting in its passionate expression.

    Emily munched happily, roaming eyes spotting the cute Asian girl coming the opposite way, beer and chilli dog in hands. She looked familiar, but the Ithauer couldn't place her. Eyes flick up and down, and she gives Sonnie a bright smile. "Hi! This is gonna sound super corny but... have we met? I'm sure I know your face." Eyes flick around.

    She sees people starting to gather around Baby and she does a double take back to Sonnie. "Oh, oh.... Come with me if you remember. People are looking at my car!" She starts wolfing down the rest of her chilli dog and heading over to her Mustang.

    "THURTHY!" the werewolf tries to cry thickly through an enormous mouthful, eyes lighting up at the blonde changeling eyeing up the Mustang. She rushes around to Circe, swallowing hastily and licking chilli off her fingers. "Circe, Hi!" Emily beams. "How've you been? You are looking hot. Red really is your colour." The punk slaps the roof of the Mustang. "What do you think? I got her fully finished a few months back." She spots the open door the Dodge. "Oooooh, is this one yours? Verrry nice. Mind popping the hood for me? Please? Pretty please?"

    She realises there's a couple of guys (Cole and Garett) checking out Baby as well. "Oh, hi boys!" She waves. "Hoods open if you wanna see inside. All my own work. I do this for a living - licensed mechanic, tuning, restoration and detailing. You need it, I do it - If you ever want your girls taken care of just give me a call. I treat them like my own baby here." She pulls out a few business cards with "Makerith Motors" embossed over a crescent moon, before looking back to the Charger.

    "C'mon, Circe. Let me look underneath. I'll be gentle." She grins cheekily.

    Sonnie was in the middle of looking at herself in some roadster's side view mirror, with a mouth full of chili dog, when Emily surprised her. She looked up and blinked at the woman's brief greeting.

    "Wud? Huv wuh mut?" she was also one to speak through chewed food, and bits of chili flicked out of her mouth as she followed after the werewolf girl. After studying her a moment, recognition struck. It was the blue hair. A very obvious clue. Sonnie quickly swallowed and spoke clearly, "Oh, yeah! I remember you! In that bar last year! You were waiting for a date or something, right? You're... um... Emma? Uma? Embeth? Anyway, I'm Sonnie!"

    When they arrived at Emily's car, she smiled and waved at the blue elf, "Hi Circe! You here for the chili dogs, too? They're pretty good."

    She slurped from her cup of beer.

    The dark eyes of the Prince watched the stoic man walking around her car.

    “You like her?” asks the Italian with a friendly smile. The Savage could be friendly.

    Before she could say anything else, her Beast stirred, feeling the presence of a weaker one.

    Casually looking around, she sees her cousin. In what had to be a very expensive car. Too flashy for her tastes, but it was nice.

    Smirking, “I like to be unexpected.” She jokes with a shrug. “Had enough people fawning over this, so figured might see what these shows were all about.” Looking past him with a nod, “Nice car, I didn’t take you for a car guy.” Or someone who owed jeans and a hoodie.

    It was hard to miss Emily and her car. Her hair matching the machine was a fun touch. And she had to chuckle to herself at the attention the girl was getting. And she seemed to be drinking It up.

    The Savage was content to watch things unfold.
