yeah it has been

Happy Valentines y'all. Been a minute hasn't it?

Eleanor would only chuckle a bit now "If I took issue to your statements I would have gone back to my spot in the spring.... speak your mind and speak it freely I do not care" she said humming a bit "I will do the largest I have read" she said soon slowly growing her height to 11'0" and she would stretch her wings a little "See?" She asked before smiling a bit "Although truth be told I only practice self defense so.... I shouldn't need to change my size" she said sitting back down crossing her legs as she looked at him

"Then you'll have to forgive me for what I say, it has been days since I last slept," Austin... Told the truth? With his current situation sleep has been sparse due to the severe pheromones that lingered around the mansion. The woman must have be lucky to be a vampire, unaffected by the hormonal scents of a wolf. Then again, it's a losing situation if you are allergic to a little sunshine. Readjusting himself, Austin continued, "Indeed we are tall, large in stature when transformed. But I suppose i can see this... Size growth of your form."

Lilium seemed surprised by the first question but thought about it, having the same habit of looking up or away when she was in thought but nonetheless innocent looking at all times. She did not look like the kind to plot anything, anyway. Her gaze returned to the man before she spoke. "I did not think about anything, actually. I meant anything as perhaps having a friendly conversation while walking. Please do not feel forced to join with me if you have matters to attend to.", she reassured, thinking that she was only there by her own will and perhaps he had business. Watching Atsuno finish his meal then get up to take his dishes to the sink, she also stood up and readied to leave soon. However, as he finally spoke again, Lilium could only do little but blushing slightly, surprised by the choice of words and wondering if he thought that it is part of what she was proposing. Not sex with men but sex... in general... "Oh... Nothing like that, I assure you... In fact, I would let you choose where you would like to go. Perhaps simply spend a good moment before we parted ways. Only if you wish. Is there anywhere you'd like to go?", she asked.

"Anything... Like what?" Atsuno asked. He has been listening for little bit that Liliam had spoke, a lot of reassurance that she wasn't going to eat him and intentions were good and blah blah blah. Same verse different line, not that Atsuno didn't mind it one bit kinda like a song on repeat. He could also listen to her voice a bit longer too, she seemed like a sweet gal, not one of those upstuck bitches he had to deal with on occasion. After finishing his steak, the former Thrall started on the grilled vegetables he made beginning on the asparagus. Shame Lilium wasn't keen on trying out the food which shit herself in this case, it was definitely more for Atsuno and he didn't complain one bit. After finishing his meal, the man brings the dirty dishes to one of the larger sinks turning the water on in the process. He takes some Dawn and squirts in the slowly filling sink, the least he could do was let the dishes soak. "As long as I'm not having sex with old men we're good."

Lilium watched her interlocutor but also looked at the food a little as he explained his point. "Creature of the night has a good sound to it. Yes, I mostly feed on blood. I am not sure that I want to try human food yet but I am still glad that you get to enjoy it. Especially with how much heart that you seem to put into preparing it.", she said with a soft smile, but not staring too much as to not be rude. "Please forgive me if my company is of little entertainment. You must have been wondering why someone like me would come to such a place, dressed this way.", the vampire girl told Atsuno. "I assure you that my reasons are for none other than spend time with some different kinds of persons. Everyone seems to be about their business but I enjoy to spend time with everyone alike.", she continued as she gave him a honest smile. "There is no place where I would not go to meet with someone. Except perhaps for...", she started again and her eye looked away as she had gone quiet, perhaps for the best as she felt that she should not bore this person with more trivialities as he was trying to eat his meal in peace. Not to mention that she was being quite chatty as well. Looking at the man again, Lilium thought about something. "Would would like to do anything with a companion after you are done eating, mister...?", she politely queried.

Eleanor watched him scan her body and she hummed a bit "I can change the height as needed... although I tend to do random heights... I heard you wolves are pretty tall in wolf form...any of those heights I could match" she mused "I can also sha-" she said cutting herself off as he spoke about pinning her down "You are lucky I have no inherited issues with wolves" she said chuckling a little bit before raising an eyebrow "You can speak how you want... you arent doing any harm speaking your mind" she said smiling a bit.

@BladeRunner Sorry for super delay. I saw the post before during a moment I was doing already bad and it's been a pretty bad since then but I took notice of it and will reply to it as soon as possible. Just thought I'd tell you since it might suck that I didn't communicate on it. (I legit forgot about a lot of things in two weeks. I don't usually do that but yeah, it's been a little rough for me.)

Atsuno... Wasn't sure how to respond to the lady. Was she seriously that disconnected from society? Being a vampire meant that she was much older than him, she should have knowledge of at least the most mundane of American history! Whatever, it wasn't his business to ask questions like that, all he knew right now was the lady seemed like she needed company. Swallowing the clump of meat, Atsuno had to think of what else to say afterall it was rude to keep the lady talking on her lonesome. "Huh... Well it's sustenance for me. Apparently you creatures of the night drink blood, apparently some vampires will use a light amount of blood on food like this to actually taste what they're missing... Just a small amount," Atsuno's advice was a thorough project way back when he was just a minor Thrall, untrained and unfocused on the world beyond that of the mortal. He was going to die until he suggested something, now it was commonplace for many vampires to eat ordinary Human food with a bit of blood and somehow, someway, it sated that thirst.

As soon as the female demonstrated the transformation it... Aroused the Alpha more? He saw the woman had turned much like his kin, however the form of the beast was that of a bat which seemed unorthodox. Regardless, he took the form to an odd liking, however remained steadfast as he understood it could be a potential threat one day. For now, he couldn't necessarily take his eyes off the form, Austin slowly scanning the body from covered toe to head. "I could pin you down right now-" Austin caught himself and adjusted his tone, "It looks... Decent for a dead blood."

Eleanor then tilted her head before thinkibg a bit "I domt quite know how to word it... I think it would be better to show" she said standing up fully moving to stand in front of him..."for starters.... I will remain my height but.... i can match differemt heights" she said before slowly shifting inti her bat form showing off her body and her wings "Well?....what do you think?"

There was a particular question that was eating at the Alphas mind. Curiosity killed cats, dogs ate it, and he was certainly one to be curious about the little vampire that was close to him. His member, lost to Austin, protruded out of the water as he relaxed further. Oddly he always knew how to soften the fleshy piece however it was a tad different, the undead had no scent thanks or no thanks to the steam and storm, and given her form Austin felt... Aroused, pent up as one would put it. "Tell me... About this form you possess." Austin finally spoke, breaking the silence that was welcomed and unfortunately gone for ghe time being. Did she turn into a literal bat? Did the woman turn intonan ugly beast? Ot was unheard of but the ancient stories have told of beings, even undead, turning into creatures as such.

Lilium turned to him, looking confused. "Vi-et... nam?", she asked, trying to pronounce it right. The girl was not all cultured about humans and their business. After looking up in thoughts for a bit, she eyed back to him. "Well, you should be glad that you're not... Humans do not last very long, do they?", she asked casually while looking back to the dished and finishing them before drying her hands, nodding to herself. Lilium then walked back to where he was and finally took a seat nearby to rest her legs. "To say 'time flies' is an interesting way to explain the passage of time. I am not sure I understand the idea of thinking that time may bear wings, though...", she said, her eye seeming to looking up in thoughts again, seemingly serious. "At any rates, I hope you are enjoying this time spent at the castle. These meals certainly seem to be one good motivation to stay alive...", she joked lightly, thinking that it must be lucky for him to be able to enjoy such things.

"Me? Been around since Vietnam, got picked up by a Blackthorne way back when... Damn, it really was a while back? Time flies, should be an old man right now." Atsuno finished with a light banner. He knew the effects of being a Thrall to vampires, he can feel how far the designated master was and their emotion, heightened senses to that of a canine and eyesight of a hawks if he focused hard enough; Superhuman physiology, and importantly eternal youth. But given he has no master Atsuno knows in time he'll regress into a normal Human... He didn't know if he wanted that, it'd be like a fresh breath of air but being so used to one thing it felt alien to want anything else.

Satisfied with the exolanation she fell silent "Thank you for sating my curiosities" she said this time quieter and she fell silent after words soon laying back in the water herself relaxing a bit more... she did not feel like she was in danger... and she had no further questions...nor did she even know what to say to the wolf alpha... she did not want to annoy him either so she did not know what to say or do

Austin internally groaned, could this female not stop talking? He replied, "Depends on the breed. Yes, there are those who can change at will, those who are forced under the mercy of the moon, there are true wolves and abominations, some more beast than man but those more man than beast. There are even those in Afghanistan and the Middle East who change under the sun only. Our kind are far and wide, and very many varieties exist, however those who are of the original bloodline are large, powerful and fast, they change at will and are of man and beast in nature." The explanation was as simple as he could out it so Austin thought. He was of the "True" or original bloodline, a direct descendant of the original Werewolf as many call it, many a millinia ago. Hard to believe that his bloodline has existed since the first recorded written languages, Austin had to wonder how further back they had existed for and when and how the other splices came to be. That would take time to read and first, find. For now he remained focused on the present.

My poor Lilium is being lonely again. (T⌓T) And I didn't really think about a wolf yet. Didn't have the time...

She then hummed a bit "Soooooo.... would I be welcome to come back in those times? Or any other chance I get?" She asked tilting her head a bit once again admiring his body a bit... she definitely appreciated how built he was compared to the scrawnier vampires.... but she guessed it was something to do with the wolves... she had no clue... she never delved to much into the anatomy of both species. "So... is the full moon transformation thing just a stereotype?" She asked curiously "Like can you transform at will?" She added to claeify her question a bit.... she definitely noticed his gaze linger over her body but she certainly did not mind the look.

"Winter and spring are the best times," Austin replied, "Cold weather is what can make these springs rejuvenating, however it doesn't typically get too warm in the state given how far North we are." The Alpha's gaze linger down the female before him as she moved closer and closer, it allowed for a better view as one might put it. The water itself was hot but his body acclimated quickly, making his relaxation all the better, if only he had some mead though. Unlike the females in the pack, this woman was "skinnier" in the sense that she wasn't thick around the waist or filled out in desirable areas, but the woman was still appeasing to the eye. It was indefinitely a fine change of pace. However, unlike the curious pup, Austin had no questions, instead going back to leaning back and closing his eyes to better relax.

Eleanor would chuckle a bit wondering what was going through his head and she would hum a bit.... she was unaware of these rumors about her. "A primitive touch?" She asked a bit curiously "I suppose it could be considered beastly... with my transformation and such..." she said moving closer to him now feeling safe enough to sit right by him "Out or curiosity when are the best times to enjoy this spring?' She asked now "Me being a vampire... I unfortunately miss the joys of a beautiful day.... instead I have to live in rainy weather or cold nights" she said with a sigh seeming rather upset by that fact "Although I did appreciate the rain that allowed me to come here" she said although she was keeping her ears open for questions for her... she felt like a guest so far and was eager to answer questions as long as it was in regards to her.

That's why she smelled different, that transformation that was rare but seen over Pineheath at the dead of night. He's caught it before but only faintly and for just that moment, beastial, primal, something the Alpha was more fixated on. Because of this one she started a chain reaction of a cryptid group trying to track down the "Montana Hellbat," Which his own contacts have told Austin ridiculous stories and so forth of these passionate fellows going to and fro from one end of the state to the next to find evidence. Idiots. Humans are a rare breed, abd though crafty and intelligent it's morons like these that give everyone a bad name. Ghost Adventures? He could watch that crew all day, especially when 90% of their happenings are quote accurate, but they fold like a bitch when they aggravate a spirit and receive return fire. But the hunt for Mothman? No, they're smarter and tougher to kill. "Yes, that is all. Your scent carries a primitive touch to it, a bit more," Austin couldn't help but look to the woman abd her form, "Beastly, like my Kin, but unlike them as well."

She would listen to him speak and when she spoke of her scent she tilted her head before shrugging a bit "Maybe it is different because I was turned rather than lived my entire life as a vampire..." she said unsure what he meant "Or what do you mean by that?" she asked curiously now looking at him curiously. She was not aware where his mind was elsewhere. "That is all?" she asked raising an eyebrow surprised. She halfly expected a wolf to be just as curious about her as she was of it. She then hummed a bit "Hilariously enough... I don't share the great magic some of my kind has.... I can only shift into a bat... like you wolves have a wolf form" she said now looking him over curiously... her bat form didn't have muscles to take on a wolf... it had claws claws she chose to keep dull as she had no reason to fight... only in self defense would she fight.

No, there wasnt much to ask. Austin felt his gaze on the woman linger longer than expected as she spoke, then he relaxed into the water again. He normally didn't care for vampires nor their antics, yet he couldn't sense a trace of deceit behind the woman's words which made him slightly more trusting. If bot for the aching feeling below, he'd have left into the rain... Spirits forbid the females start jumping at the Alpha at the mansion. "Your scent is... I sense of smell is ineffective at this time, yet being this close your scent is different from the other," And more lively. It felt like a change in pace with being around voluptuous women that he wasn't quite used to seeing a lithe woman, his mind was... Elsewhere at the moment, so much so he was starting to stare off into space, "But that is all."

She would then listen a bit curiously noticing he didn't tense up when she revealed herself she relaxed and she would hum a bit now as she looked at him admiring his body a bit more.. "Well its a pleasure to meet you Auvanux" she said now smiling at him. When he called her brave or bold she simply shrugged "Others would call me stupid...I know your issues or past issues with castle blackthorne...although honestly... I could care less about them... I am rather neutral there" she started..... "Simply put it... I am not bold or brave... or stupid....after all.... I was here before you... although I didn't notice you at first.... that castle's got my senses all messed up I thought I smelled vampire but since then the scent has faded.... all I smell is you....If anything I am curious" she said before thinking a little bit She then looked to him. "I'm not wanting anything in particular... I mean I am in no position to ask for anything...I am in your territory after all... but I just could not pass up a natural hot spring" she said chuckling a bit looking him over "Is there something you want from me?" she asked curiously "Any questions for me....and respectively.... about me? I would rather not lose my lodging at that castle" she said now smiling at him
