Key Figures
THE MONSTER OF EALING
Last night, several people reported the sighting of a "screaming red monster" in a quiet neighbourhood of Ealing. After a power shortage in the area, a building caught fire. It was then when, what was described as a "man shaped, footless creature" emerged from the flames, leaping, running, and screaming. One woman has told our reporters that the man had "teeth like a wolf, and the face of the devil". Police officers are still trying to get to the bottom of this; neither the power shortage nor the fire have still been explained. A spokesperson from Scotland Yard has stated that the "so called monster" might be a wounded person, escaping the fire.

TRAGEDY IN TOOLEY STREET
The police has found the bodies of three TFL workers in the construction site at Tooley Street. One of their colleagues raised the alarms last week, when the three workers didn't attend their shifts. The bodies of the men have been found in a deep hole, uncovered by the refurbishment works that are taking place in the area. According to the Police, the bodies were horribly mutilated, which has led to the wildest speculations. The names of the three workers are being kept anonymous, following the wishes of their families.

HOROSCOPE
MARCH 8 - PISCES
You are used to making sacrifices, to prioritising the happiness of others before yours. Even though that is a noble attitude, there are times in life where the only healthy alternative is to embrace your own selfishness and allow yourself some enjoyment. Reserve one hour per day to do something you really like. Treat yourself! Your colour for this month is blue.
Echoes from the past ring back into London. Their intensity increases until they are deafening. What once was a faded memory of a glorious time, now becomes a shocking reality. The consequences of actions taken decades ago ripple into the present, altering the lives of everybody in the City. Unguided and blind, Kindred wander around, trying to make profit out of the reigning chaos.


The appearance of four mysterious figures turned the city upside down. Mistrust and jealousy became the official currency of London. Serpents and fiends rise to power, misdirecting the blaming eyes of the Camarilla towards imaginary enemies. Only those with clear vision and the ability to trust each other strive, while the rest run towards a shallow grave.

"Toran?" she'd been quiet, real quiet, walking down the stairs despite the high heels, not wanting to alert him and spoil the surprise as she had been quiet getting up, and, while he might've heard the shower, she would've otherwise made sure to keep from making too much noise.

The reason for that was perhaps silly, and while many (perhaps Lucy included) would've called her choice of dress somewhat gaudy, the simple fact was that it still managed to suit her. It was friggin' leopard print and the Brujah somehow made it work because it fit with the hair that had been left its natural blonde and curled and done up, and the tattoos revealed by the cut of the dress and the skin it exposed. Giving it a slightly pin-up girl kind of feel.

Of course, she wasn't as curvy as most pictured when they talked about pin-ups. But that was the closest description that fit her current look.

She smiled at him , chewing on her lower lip which had been painted a soft pink colour. "I was wondering if you might feel like going out with me? I've made dinner reservations at a restaurant... considered getting us some tickets to a concert but wasn't sure what you might feel like so uhm, figured we could hit a pub afterwards instead? Or maybe go dancing?" the Swede smiled at him. "If you feel like it, that is"

She took a step closer to him, fingers fiddling with the long necklace she was wearing, though it didn't really stand out. Not the way the ring she was wearing was anyway. Which he ought to recognize seeing as he'd been the one to make it for her.

"Guh."

The man blinked, repeatedly. His frost-blue eyes were focused on Lucy in surprise. He then yelped as he pushed a powered screw driver against the back of his hand instead of the screw he'd been about to remove.

"OW... oh. Yeah. I'd love to go out with you. Lemme... go get dressed."

Because the ragged sweater and kilt he was wearing wasn't going to cut it. Not while she was wearing THAT dress. Nope. Toran wasn't the most socially aware guy, but he could see that that dress deserved a guy looking nice to be with. He thought he had something that would work in his closet.

"Yeah.. I'll just be right back. Lemme go get dressed and comb my hair. Wow, you look great hon."


His voice was cavern smoke and velvet soft and a bit surprised. She looked, gorgeous. That wasn't what surprised him. He just, didn't see her in a dress very often. He liked it. He always liked how she looked but.. this he liked too. He put down the screwdriver and ran upstairs to get dressed.

Good reaction. Or well, the part where he nearly maimed himself with a power tool wasn't necessary but still, yeah, good reaction. Which meant the Brujah smiled with a soft chuckle when he sort of started babbling while moving towards the stairs leading up to the apartment. It couldn't be helped, she liked when she managed to get that sort of reaction from him.

He rushed upstairs and Lucy followed, although at a more relaxed pace seeing as she knew they still had plenty of time to make it to the dinner reservation. Which meant she rather hang out upstairs while he got ready than down in the workshop, even if she didn't have anything against the place. It was just more comfortable upstairs.

Toran would find though that laying on the bed, neatly spread out, was a shirt. Which, while it looked simple enough being a plain white, was one he'd find to actually fit him. Suggesting it wasn't an off the rack kind of thing but rather one that had been tailored to fit comfortably on a frame that was far more massive than your average person.

Lucy leaned her shoulder against the door frame, hands behind her back and her ankles crossed as she smiled at him.
"You don't have to wear it, you know? I just thought it might be nice with one that fit should you ever feel like it" let's face it, most standard shirts got weird when trying to find one that fit across his shoulders without looking all baggy otherwise. "And uhm, the tickets" because a couple of tickets were laying on the bed next to the shirt. "I wasn't sure if it's something you'd like but... Less Than Jake is one of my favourite bads and they're playing on February fourteenth so... I was hoping you'd maybe want to go with me?" she said hopefully.

Toran looked at the shirt and smiled. It was nice to find something that fit, and she must have looked hard to do so. His suit would look good with it. He kissed her cheek for her thoughtfulness and pulled out the formal outfit he'd had hidden away in the back of his closet.

"If you like them then I'd be glad to go with you to see them. I'm not familiar with the band though. I'm a bit uneducated where music is concerned."

He grinned as he dressed. He hoped she'd like the outfit. He might leave off the tie as a bit much, but he wanted to look as nice for her as she was looking for him. The shirt fit really well too. He wondered if she'd measured him while he was sleeping, or just had a really solid eye for this sort of thing. He smiled at her as he belted his kilt.

"And you know I'd go anywhere you wanted to take me hon. You've never failed to show me a good outing yet."

He smiled at her as he slid the black jacket. That he had taken the time to have tailored. You could hide a baggy shirt in a good jacket. He hoped she liked the took at least. He hadn't really dressed up around her. That meeting at the Muse had pointed out to him he might need to find himself some more formal clothing though, since gods knew when he'd have to dress good for some kind of vampire function. Though, as far as he could tell his type wasn't really invited to those functions all that much.

"Wow..." that was... "Wow..." she repeated in a chuckle as she walked over to him and reached up to brush her fingers along the lapel of his jacket. "You've been holding out on me" the blonde teased with a bright grin at him. "You look stunning, baby..." Lucy nodded, biting her lip lightly while she brushed her hand over his chest. "Simply stunning" or well, more than that actually.

"I feel like I should've picked something more classy now" the Brujah laughed before leaning in and pushing herself up onto her toes to give him a kiss. "Mmm, thank you, love... I'm really happy you'll go out with me tonight" because while it was rather random whether or not she even celebrated her birthday, she had felt like doing something special this time around. Because this time, she had someone special to do it with.

"You make me really happy, you know that?" she hoped he did. She really really hoped he did. "This..? You, me..." she smiled. "Us.."

"Naw, that dress fits you perfectly."

He leaned down, cupped her rear and lifted her up to kiss her back warmly, then set her down so as not to mess up her outfit.

"I sorta figured I should get at least one good outfit, you know? But... I dunno. I feel like I'm playing up in this. Glad you like it though."

He regarded her with warm frost-blue eyes and smiled again. She was so cute. She always acted like he was giving her a reward when he showed her affection. Someday he'd get her to just accept that she deserved to have a good time and his affection and he'd kiss that little bit of insecurity right out from her crinkled nose.

"Us makes me pretty happy too darling. That's why I'm glad we have it. So where are we going for dinner?"

He grinned at her, because he was happy to go anywhere with her. They MIGHT be a touch overdressed for McDonalds, but he'd make it work. As long as she was smiling.

It wasn't so much insecurity as it was gratitude really. Happiness over having found someone she felt this comfortable and happy with, and who could make her smile the way he did. Love? Mmm, she was pretty damn certain it was love now.

"I got us reservations at this nifty place in Soho that's probably way too expensive and posh for either of us, but, I felt like celebrating" and considering she made a pretty good living but didn't have a terribly expensive life style, well, she could afford it. "Aaand, it gave me a reason to put on a dress. And even better" he got another kiss and a grin as she pulled back just enough to look at him. "I got to see you in that outfit" mmmm kilt....

"I might just have to take you out more often if you're gonna dress like that" what? She was allowed to like what she saw and well, she could drool a bit over her own boyfriend right? Heh, actually, fiancé.
Now ]i]that[/i] was a nice word... fiancé...

"Only if you wear dresses like that and accept that some point."

He took her hips in his hand and turned her around, pulling her backside against him.

"This dress will slide up"

He grinned and ran a hand softly up her back and pushed her forward so she was bent at the waist.

"The kilt will come up."

He grinned and pulled her back into a hug, holding her happily in his arms.

"And I will show you that just because I agreed to marry you doesn't mean I'm going to stop vigorously and frequently demonstrating my barbaric need to assert my manly claim on your womanly body."

He said it with an amused and breezy glossing over of the fact that HE had asked HER to marry him. But his hands and arms were soft and comfortable, and he'd been very careful not to mess up her clothes or her look so they could go out and enjoy this dinner of hers.

"Soho eh? Well, I had a great first date with a woman in Soho once. We had drinks, she tried to drain my blood and we ended having passionate sex in an alley before I was put on trial by a jury of her peers. As relationship starters go, I'll admit, it was one of the better ones for me..."

He was grinning like a boy with a toy, holding her and making a deep happy rumble even while he talked.

Mm, then it probably didn't help that she chuckled when he turned her around and pulled her tight. The Brujah throwing him a glance over her shoulder when he pushed her forward and told her what would eventually happen when he got the chance. And, as well he knew, she wasn't going to protest one bit when he, as he said himself, "laid claim to her womanly body".

"Oh, I'm counting on it" the blonde grinned as she was pulled back into a hug. Leaning happily into his arms before chewing on her lip with a bit of a dreamy smile, one hand lifting to brush the back of its knuckles across his chest in an affectionate gesture.

"Oh?" that oh was teasing from the get go, he could tell as she turned around in his arms and slipped her own around his shoulder as bets she could, given the difference in size and height. "Is that so hm?" well, it had been an interesting night to say the least. And it had turned into quite a journey. "And that relationship, how'd that turn out hm?"

He leaned down at the waist and gave her a slow warm kiss, smiling against her lips.

"Pretty good so far.... pretty damned good. Ask me again in a hundred years."

His deep voice was soft and happy as he looked at her. He slipped a thick arm around her waist and rested his tattooed hand on her hip so he could walk her down the stairs. Nice thing about a suit jacket, no need for a coat. London wasn't so cold he'd freeze, which made him happy. A part of him knew he should have her put a coat on so she didn't give any secrets away, but he did LOVE seeing her in that dress. He didn't find leopard print all that silly when it actually was sized right.

"Soho huh? So what does this place serve to eat?"

She was a big girl. She'd make up her own mind about the coat and whether she wanted to wear it or not. He wasn't going to pester her just because he was a nervous Nelly. He was more glad than ever he'd gotten that big truck for them. Traveling together inside the truck would be a LOT nicer than separately on motorcycles. Though, seeing her straddle her bike in that dress might be fun. Heh.

Oh, she'd simply snatch one of her coats on the way out, resting it over her arm with a smile as they made their way down the stairs. After having lovingly returned the kiss of course.

"The place is called the Social Eating House, of all silly things but I guess a good restaurant needs a silly name" said the girl who'd named her tattoo studio "the Pink Squid". "And according to reviews, they serve contemporary European food, whatever that means. But, the menu did look really good, just please don't ask me to repeat it because I cant" intricate menu was intricate. And if she dummied it down for herself the food wouldn't really receive the justice it deserved.

"They also got a really sweet bar upstairs, so when we've had dinner, we can have a drink? Unless you feel like going some place else of course, I don't mind either way" she just wanted a night out with him. A normal night out, or at least as normal as she could make it. "I think this'll be a great evening no matter what we end up doing" she grinned.

"This place sounds good. Dunno what any of that is but I'm sure grilled meat is in there somewhere."

He grins down at her, playing up his "savage barbarian" routine as he escorts her out the door and lets it lock solidly behind them. He wasn't a total savage. He was sure he'd know what at least one of the meals was. Maybe even two.

"So, they still frown on eating with your fingers in high society, yeah?"

He teased with amusement as he walked her to the truck. In truth he was happy to go out with her. Which was bizarre for him because happy and out didn't usually line up for him. But Lucy had been making all sorts of changes in his reclusiveness lately. She'd brightened up the house a ton and had even done a good job brightening up his own dark areas. Supposed that meant she was a keeper.

She held up her thumb and index finger, indicating a narrow space between them.
"A tiny little bit I think" the Brujah chucked, flashing him another one of those happy warm grins that reflected in her eyes when they looked at him. A light bounce to her step as was often the case when she dragged him out of the well, no so much bunker any more, to do things.

That he had started opening up and stopped hiding away from the world was a good thing. And while she wouldn't push or ask him to change, she hoped he found it a positive thing that he no longer felt the need to lock it all out of his life. At the very least he seemed happier now than when they'd first met.
And while the Brujah would claim she'd never been unhappy with her life, well, she was happier now than before. Which was actually quite an impressive feat all things considered. But one he'd managed to pull off so easily.

"Luckily I know that even you know how to use the cutlery correctly" Lucy stuck her tongue out and slipped around to the passenger side to get in. Figuring he didn't mind driving seeing as high heels were a bitch to drive in.

He settled himself into the drivers seat and smiled at her.

"So, it's probably a good thing that I'm leaving the knife at home?"

He grinned over at her, since his only normal "knife" had an 11" blade on it and was almost a hand wide. She knew he wouldn't take that anywhere people could see it considering it broke most legal carry laws. Especially not when he couldn't hide it inside his pants like he normally did.

"I suppose I can remember not to use the back end of the spoon or cut the meat with my toenails since it's a special occasion."

He'd follow her lead though and drive to wherever this lovely Soho restaurant was that she directed him.

"Mmm, yeah that would be appreciated" she laughed, settling into the passenger seat, knees together, resting her coat across her lap with a smile at him. "And if we should happen to come into a situation where you could've used that so-called knife of yours" as she argued it was actually a sword. "You're allowed to tell me you told me so" although Hell, at what point would they stumble into a situation like that? It was Camarilla territory, they were just going out for dinner and drinks. Surely nothing bad could happen, right?

Though, in all the movies that's where things did start going badly. So probably best not to say it out loud. No need to jinx them tat badly.

"Besides, it would've clashed with your outfit. Now, a proper Claymore on the other hand..." well, she laughed, which probably meant she was joking. Most likely joking. Maybe joking.

The blonde leaned back into the seat and reached over to place a hand lightly on his thigh, crossing her ankles.
"You know, if you feel I'm getting too domesticated, you can just tell yeah?" Lucy winked, not wanting him to think she was going to turn all house wife on him just because their relationship had turned into something different than their original "friends with benefits" arrangement.

"Honey... I love you. If you get too domestic that's what bikini's and public places for wild and dangerously exhibitionist sex is for."

He smiled at her and says it in a soft warm voice, grinning at her, his frost-blue eyes sparkling. He started up the truck and shifted into gear, turning in the general direction of Soho and leaving her to wonder if he was kidding or not. Not that he was a particularly good liar. But teasing, wasn't exactly lying, right?

The black truck pulled out and started off into the night. He knew she'd be able give him the address or pull it up on the GPS when he needed directions. For now, To SOHO worked as a start.
