Moving wasn't ever something that had crossed Carter's mind. He'd grown up in their current home. The place held stories, history and more. A number of people had lived, served and died within the place. Moving seemed out of the question.<br/><br/>The village seemed pretty much like the house they stayed in. It was alive and almost haunting, from the streets to its orange like lighting. Yet the fresh air and the sound of heels clattering on the cobbled flooring gave Carter a calming sense. He hadn't had a chance to take it all in before. But now that he had Asa by his side, he couldn't help but look at its beauty.<br/><br/>Where did his companion normally go when he left the house? He longed to know and the smile that set on the vampires face gave Carter an excited feeling that washed through him. He kept a hold of Asa's hand, returning the gentle squeeze as he followed along until they reached their destination. The building was gorgeous with its ferns and climbing ivy. It held an ancient vibe that Carter loved and the music from within tugged at his curiousity. "The Drowning Beaver" he said reading the sign that swung from the overhead sign just as Asa guided him inside.<br/><br/>Music, drink, lights and the smell of everything was enough to cloud Carter's mind. He had no idea what to focus on. There were a number of bodies already on the dance floor and he tried his best to follow Asa's guidance to shuffle past them all. But they'd managed to make it to the other side without being bumped or bashed and the reward on the other side was delightful. The plush seats seemed way more comfortable compared to the wooden ones and he was about to voice his approval when something, or someone seemed to fly into Asa with a force that would have sent him toppling over.<br/><br/>Carter's eyes widened and his footing pivoted to see what had happened. He hadn't worked out if there was a need to defend themselves, or make a run for it. But when his eyes landed on a boy around the same height as he was, his own posture relaxed a little. It seemed Asa knew this person, thankfully. But Carter wasn't sure what to say. If Asa knew this person, did that mean they were the same? But Carter's questioning was soon laid to rest when the stranger brought up the council. Still, the kid seemed friendly enough and if Asa knew the kid, he guessed he could relax a little.<br/><br/>It didn't take long for the strangers attention to turn and before he could get a word in, he'd learned the strangers name and happily gave his own "Carter, it's a pleasure. As for Asa... Every rose has its thorn I guess" he said looking up at Asa for a second before returning his gaze to Ozzy. He couldn't even imagine what his companion got up to while he was away from the house. It was obvious Ozzy hadn't seen him around town in awhile, and Asa had only been at home a few days with him...<br/><br/>"Okay..." It seemed Asa trusted this guy enough to leave them alone together, so Carter took a seat and relaxed against the seats. "So... Ozzy, how long have you been around these parts? I wouldn't say I was new... I'm more of a hermit if I'm honest".
