If the sudden shift in scenery had not been enough to irritate the, admittedly easily ruffled, vampire, the strange bracelet on his wrist certainly was. Wrapping his fingers around his wrist, he instinctively tried to remove the device, having little success. With a distinctive low growl, he stalked toward the pedestal and the (phone?) laying atop it. He wanted answers. Snatching the tablet from its resting place, he glared at the screen.

"This is not acceptable!"

The blinking message indicator caught his attention, and for a moment, his anger was diverted, his frown deepening as he read. Finally, he closed the document, leaning his elbow on the pedestal casually as he studied the device. Yes, he had discovered it was recording him. He was still glaring, but his anger was slightly less alarming.

"Couldn't we have managed without the jewelry? It doesn't match my suit." He looked back toward the platform he had arrived on, then back at the tablet in his hand. "But never mind that, I'll think of something."

And then he was grinning again. "But since we're all here, allow me to introduce myself. Nikola Tesla. Genius, inventor," and here there was a pause, mostly for effect, "vampire."

With that, he turned his attention to the strange blinking indicator directing him to another location in the city. "I wonder where you're taking me."

"I think we could be good friends," she answered. She wasn't always kind to her friends - she left those sorts of concerns to people with souls and fine morals - but she cared for them in her way. She cared for them and they always had fun together.

"Then I certainly hope that's the case." Yes, he's beginning to like her. This could be the start of a beautiful relationship.

"You should come and find me when you've found your feet. We'll have a party."

It had been a long time since she'd been to a proper party, but she still knew the steps to all of the dances. There were some things that a girl could never forget. Daddy had woven them into her very bones.

"Absolutely. I hope you won't make yourself difficult to find."

Though, he thinks she might be worth the effort.
