1925
@pict-prodigy
It was a rainy night in London.Gloomy atmosphere.Lively music originating from pubs downtown.Mortals speaking loudly,laughing.Aelia and Cassius mingled among them in one of these pubs.Dancing and enjoying themselves.Amused by drunk mortals,stumbling and falling unto the dusty floors.Men getting into fights over who would dance with the pretty girls.
The pair was barely paying attention to their surroundings.The music was loud.The smell of the crowd,intoxicating.A mix of sweat and blood beneath the skin.The orchestra began playing a slower song for couples to dance to.It was at this moment as the crowd shifted that Cassius noticed a figure in the far left corner of the room.A man.He wispered in Aelia’s ear.She turned to catch a glimps of the stranger.The Romans knew he too was an immortal.By his energy Aelia and Cassius could tell he was an ancient as well.He seemed out of place in this mass of animated warm bodies.Standing still.Staring at them.
The stranger looked confused,lost.The couple was not sure if they should approach him.So,they decided to let him come to them if he wished.
