on a forgotten corner of a forgotten street sits a commoner's tuck shop headed by a red eyed strigoi.
beyond the hidden door with the 'staff only' sign is a restaurant lit by sparse, artificial, candles. long, sweeping curtains cover rotten windows, frosted glass.
yin sits with her head knocked back, toes occupying the edge of the seat; the off red liquid in her polished wine glass kisses the light, is without shine. she heaves a sigh.
there is a noise at the side door, which leads to a back street.
her nose picks up. her head, then her whole body dashes to it immediately. the wine glass smashes violently onto the floor, sending blood oozing into the wooden panels; all the while yin forces open the door.
someone's joining her for a meal! oh, exciting news.

unfamiliar streets, a wrong turn or two, he’s far from wilmer house and his demons. a scent nostalgic and inviting lures him further, deeper into areas unknown.
the closer he draws to the scent’s source, the more easily he puts a name to it. numerous scents, layered over each other. blood, melted wax (and is that a touch of perfume?). he stands curious outside the ramshackle building, flickers of candlelight glowing like eerie will-o-wisps in the frosted glass of the windows.
glass shattered somewhere inside. a door he didn’t notice squeals open and smashes on the wall it’s attached. before him, she stands like a specter framed in dust and darkness.
“you're...”

she cranks of her head a bit too far and thorough for human realism, but she wants a better look at the little pet. the initial excitement and glee flees through her fingers; she slows. she mouths his words, making no attempt to hide her confusion.
"i... i? you're?" she mimics his tone, as if borrowing his words would make her understand.
she shakes her head, frowns profoundly. it does eventually lead to tip toes and too close staring, to examine the retinas and judge the smell of his skin.

you’re, you’re what? what? the thought flew from his brain with the parting of his chapped lips. gone. much like a bird freed from years in wire cages, it’s no longer within reach.
“i don’t know,” he admits, chokes on the words.
so close she’s come. her scrutiny has his skin crawling. a scent comes over him, drifting from where she’d come. metallic, heady. he peers beyo”nd her, into the dark square framed in weathered wood. “did i interrupt your meal?

she grips his jaw in response; her gaze turns sour. her lips press into a hard, thin line.
"you can't look inside, no, no, no, no, no." she shakes her head profusely, matching the escalating rhythm of her words.

her tiny fingers push into his flesh. resistance is in the eyes that venture back to doorway, but her voice ends that. all focus on her. a noble, a being of greater power than he.
"i won't look." at her mercy he can do no more than look into her eyes. he waits for her to calm.

she smiles and it's almost sweet; her teeth peek out. a gentle reminder.
"are you hungry? come in, come in." oddly cheerful, an arm snakes around his waist and pulls him through into the restaurant. someone is licking the spilt blood.

her smile decieves. he knows better than to delude himself into believing a noble can be sweet. even she wasn't sweet.
"i don't want to intrude." his protests in vain. she leads him inside. it's dark. there's only flickering light. someone is licking the floor, the blood spilt there. "what is your name? i haven't seen a noble above ground until now."

she crouches with legs spread apart, peers at the desperate waitress with skin so dull under dim candlelight yin was sure she could peel it off; her nail digs at the ant's cheek. with a startled stare, yin meets it with a toothy grin.
"not now." shaking her head, the girl slithers away before yin gets to push her a bit, kick her a little. tsk. the frustration shows on her expression when she takes a seat, gestures stiffly at her new friend to take the empty one opposite. she drags a nail across a tooth, makes no secret of staring.

his stare lingers on the desperate creature long after she’s disappears into obscurity. will that one day be his fate? driven into a corner by a thirst he couldn’t satisfy, reduced to licking blood off the floor that some noble carelessly spilt. a chill spreads through skin, sinking into keep tissue deep to the bones. the shudder threatening pulse through his skin suppressed.
he seats himself, unnerved. her stare unwavering. “you are yin, aren’t you?” he seeks to break the uneasy quiet. “why are you on the surface?”

both hands slam on the table. yin leans forward, their noses almost touching, but her tone is oddly even for a (supposedly) angry outburst.
"my name! how is it on your lips?" she cries. "i've never met you before!" she even grabs at his mouth, pulls out his tongue with the tips of her fingers, stares at the piece of flesh. "why?" she asks again, peering at flesh as if it'd answer her.

the tongue that aided in speaking the name is pressed between two fingers, pulled from his mouth. noises of protest rise in his throat. what can he do?
her question he can’t answer. nothing he can say could possibly be helpful. he’d heard of her through rumors and gossip beneath the ground they stand. in catacombs, she’s popular conversation. the noble who weaves between surface and underground.

yin falls quiet. the pulsing of pink muscle feels funny on her fingers. perhaps that's why she lets him go, pushing him back. perhaps.
she peers at him more, eyes gaping, mouth gaping.
her own tongue slithers, trying to mimic the movement she's just seen. "ssssssso?"

the salty taste of her fingers lingers on his tongue, nose wrinkled in distaste.
“i heard of you through gossip when i was last underground.” subdued the reply he gives. her staring eyes intimidating, gaping mouth disturbing. “you’re popular conversation.”
