Welcome to Carpe Noctum. It's the year 2016. Four years have past since the big battle between the people of Carpe Noctum and the Rose Alliance. But bigger and more evil beings are roaming in the outskirts of the town, preparing for the ultimate attack. No one is safe. Who's side are you on and the question is. Are you prepared to fight for what's right or what is easy? The choice is yours.
Artemys looked over to Lenard and let out a little sigh all the while rolling her eyes. Yeah… she would definitely be sure to keep him in check. By the time the pair were already stepping inside the casino, the first thing she took note of was the stench of cigarette in the air and it was quite heavy she had to say but it’s not like breathing was important to a vampire anyways. Letting her eyes wander about the place then it was quite lively especially with all the blinking lights from the machines, sounds of slot machines ringing and people shouting and what not. Her eyebrows raised as she spotted waitresses now and then running back and forth through the casino floors with their skimpy outfits and trays in hand. As Lenard brought them over to the place to exchange money to chips then she let her eyes wander once more where they fell upon the bar and restaurant part of the casino not to mention the various shops as well. "I think we should go to the restaurant later when you’ve finished up." Artemys suggested to her boyfriend as she brought her attention back to him although her eyes widened a bit at the exchange taking place. "Goodness…." She shook her head lightly with a light hesitant smile. She had half a mind right now to just drag him out of there and go back home.

Lenard looked at Artemys when he heard her little outburst when he revealed the money. "Hey I don't play for petty cash," he said and placed a kiss on her cheek before he took his box with chips. He looked towards the VIP lounges, but unless something had changed, then you had to be a regular and in with the crowd and he wasn't quite that....yet. So he looked towards the large area with various games going on. What he usually did was to pick out a game he wanted to play and then observe for a while, he didn't just start playing right away. So he moved over to the roulette and watched as some of them gambled away their money. But his eyes weren't so much on what the people betted, but more on the roulette, how it rolled, watching the little ball. Knowing that Artemys had followed him, he looked to her for a moment and leaned in as he turned his gaze back to the roulette. "I can't quite use my abilities on this game, but that doesn't mean I can't win. It's all about the roulette, not to mention guy who starts it. If you listen carefully, there is a certain sound appearing every time the roulette reach a certain point, which means it moves a little, causing the ball to jump.....the casino is trying to get as much money from the guests as possible, but if you know this, you can actually figure out the odds. Cause ultimately the ball will end in the same pocket in most of the cases," he whispered, he was so grateful for his hearing.
"Ha… No kidding." Artemys chuckled shaking her head a little as her fingers lightly grazed over the kiss Lenard placed on her cheek. Trailing after him she had looked to the area where the VIP lounges were as well. She’d rather hope after tonight that going to the casino wasn’t going to be a daily occurrence or of the sort. Stopping beside her boyfriend when he paused before a roulette table, she looked to him briefly as he started explaining a certain method when it came to approaching this particular game then let her eyes fall on the table itself. She as well studied the roulette. In all honesty she could figure it where the ball landed simply using her projection otherwise she could make the ball land where she wanted to although if she did that then obviously it would be cheating despite the tactic being rather tempting. Still the whole concept of gambling without the abilities but with methods was amazing in of itself rather than just going at random. It occurred to her that gambling had more behind it than just pick and guess and hope to win but strategy and willing to take the risk. "Impressive… You certainly do know your stuff." She said with a slight smile although it shifted to one of a smirk. "I’ll be expecting you to win big then." She wasn’t so worried now knowing that Lenard didn’t just gamble off the money right away. It reassured her that he took his time to figure out how it worked.

Lenard smiled a little as he kept an eye on the roulette. "Now you can bet on the ball to land on a black or a red, odd or even," he explained. "The safest will be to bet on either black or red, odd or even, but you can bet on one of the numbers, but the chances of winning are very small," he said. When he was pretty sure he had this roulette worked out, he moved closer to the table and placed for about 500 dollars chips on black. After everyone had made their bets. The croupier started the roulette. Lenard could actually feel the people's anticipation for what the outcome would be. After what felt like minutes the ball finally landed in a black number. Lenard smirked and the croupier moved for 500 dollars chips over to him. He took the chips and decided to bet black again, same amount.
Artemys nodded her head lightly in understanding to what Lenard continued explaining to her and when he went ahead to place a bet at the table then she followed after him and stood a little behind him on his side so that she could see what was going on. Watching everyone as the bets were placed and the roulette started then she could see how their breaths were paused as their eyes were kept on the ball waiting for the ball to land on their desired destination. When Lenard seemed to have won then she smiled widely and went to lean against him a little. She didn’t say anything for the mean time as the game went on and just mentally cheered for her boyfriend.

Lenard ended up being quite lucky, but when he had won over 2000 dollars he thought he better move on. So collecting all his chips he moved away from the roulette table and stopped, looking towards Artemys. "Okay, let's see. Any suggestions to where we should head off to next?" he asked, looking curiously at Artemys. He ended up giving the 2000 dollars of chips to her. "Spend them as you like," he said and gave her a wink. After all he didn't think it should be just him playing tonight.
When Lenard was done playing and had asked her if she had any suggestions as to where to head off to next then she slightly raised a brow when he gave the 2000 dollar’s worth of chips over to her. "Hm… " She sounded as a mischievous expression appeared on her features as she inspected the chips for a moment before looking back to her boyfriend. "I think I will. Thank you very much." She smirked before looking thoughtfully about the area scouting for a table that seemed interesting to her. "What’s that one?" Artemys asked curiously over to a table that dealt with blackjack 21, of course it just seemed like some sort of card game to her. Without a word then she moved over to one of the tables and studied observantly what was going on. What she picked up were certain signals such as ‘hit’ or ‘stand’ of the sort and that the cards being dealt had to at max amount to 21 otherwise less from the player in order to make the dealer lose by having a lesser hand than the player's....

Lenard smiled a little when Artemys gestured towards the blackjack table. "That is blackjack and probably the easiest game in here to figure out," he said. And it wasn't long before he had pretty much told Artemys everything about the game.
After a serious of blackjack, where Artemys turned out to be quite gifted into the card game, Lenard looked in the direction of the restaurant. "Hey, do you want to grab something to eat?" he asked as they stood and pondered over what to do next. They could always play some more afterwards.
So this was what it was like to gamble… Sure the game she was playing wasn’t exactly one of the more difficut ones but then again Artemys was still just a newbie. It was fun and exhilarating nonetheless. After finishing up a game there was a slight smirk on her lips as she turned her attention over to Lenard although she looked slightly thoughtful when he suggested getting something to eat. Now that he mentioned it she was a bit hungry. "Sure." She smiled to her boyfriend as she latched onto his arm and already started moving them over towards the restaurant. "Maybe you could give me the run down of some other games over dinner… I’m rather loving this date so far." She coyly smiled up to him. Artemys certainly wasn’t expecting to take to the whole gambling thing.

Lenard smiled a little when Artemys gestured towards the blackjack table. "Lenard chuckled a little and gave her a smile. Entering the restaurant it wasn't long before a hostess approached them. [color=4e8266]"[color=44aa74]Table for two," he said. The woman took two menus and asked them to follow. It was a nice table, slightly in the corner and with dim lighting, which Lenard preferred. He held the chair out for Artemys, after all he could be a gentleman when needed before he took his own seat and took the menu. The woman asked if they wanted something to drink, he looked over at Artemys to hear what she wanted. He would probably go with a whiskey or something.
Artemys sent Lenard a slight smile after he had helped her into her chair and once she was settled then already her mismatched eyes were scanning through the menu. Hearing the waitress though inquire about drinks then she briefly brought her attention to the woman. "Margarita please." It wasn’t often that the Head Lady went for anything alcohol but if the opportunity for it was there then why not? Of course over the years she’s come to learn about her low tolerance to the stuff especially after her and her sisters’ twenty-first birthday bash. That was probably the only intense thing she’s done regarding alcohol and would rather not experience it again. And of course there was her ‘youthful’ looks which brought about the questioning of her age like right now for instance.
Without hesitation she showed her ID to the woman who only seemed somewhat satisfied which just made Artemys very subtly smirk a bit. Her attention went back to the menu as the waitress got Lenard’s drink order and when she had decided on what she wanted then she neatly folded the menu and rested it on the table. "This is nice… We should go out more often." She said with a little smile as she moved her hair over her right shoulder. Sure the couple have been out on many dates over the years but more so the past few months they haven’t been able to do so as often as they'd like to.

Lenard looked up from his menu when Artemys spoke. "Well the year so far has been a bit hectic, but if we are lucky it might slow down," he said and sent her a hopeful smile before he returned his gaze back to the menu. Not quite sure what to get, letting out a slight sigh. As a waiter returned with their drinks and asked if they were ready to order, he put the menu down. "I'll be having what ever she's having," he said and sent Artemys a grin. Well it made things easier for him, besides he could eat pretty much anything.
"Hm… Hopefully…" Artemys said thoughtfully although it sounded more on the down side as she shifted her gaze back to the menu. She doubted it though despite not revealing those thoughts so really she didn’t want to be so hopeful as if doing so would just be a jinx.
Right as she looked to the waitress then she straight away brought her eyes on Lenard to which she chuckled and shook her head lightly. "In that case…" She started off as she returned her attention back to the menu to read off what she wanted which was one of the steak dishes. She looked to the woman with a slight smile as she handed her the menu. "We’ll have the steak special…. Extra rare." Usually she would have went for some pasta dish but she figured she’d get something different tonight. Not to mention she didn’t have much to eat today let alone blood so that’d be a plus in a way.
After the waitress took the order and left, carefully she crossed one leg over the other with a sigh before looking to Lenard with a warm expression. She didn’t say anything right away but observe him quietly as she took the time to be astonished by how she was with this man in the first place. Sure they’ve been together for just about four and a half years already but it still amazed her in the least. "Have I mentioned how much I love you today by any chance?" She lightly smiled tilting her head a bit. Artemys knew the affection was a tad awkward even at this point in their relationship but she couldn’t help it. Just being around him was enough to make her feel happy and all the worries to disappear.

Kat has announced that she'll be moving to the Philippines to study and because of that we have announced Katie as our third admin, so I'm not completely alone and Kat can concentrate on her studies. Kat will of course try and be on as much as she can after she's moved. So if something is burning in here, then you can now ask Katie for help as well.
