Nyx gently swirled the glass in her hand as she continued to sit at the Tavern Bar. She was currently swearing to herself left and right that this was the last time she'd -ever- come here. If she got one more "Dat a**" comment she'd go on a mass murdering spree. And she did -not- mean on vampires. For once. The bartending fae seemed to pick up on Nyx's irritation, and even though they were well aware the slayer could handle herself, they still warned whoever was stupid enough to get within arms reach. ...The slayer still wasn't sure if she was gratefull or irritated by it. Ah well. What the hell did she care. She shrugged, her ears or wings twitching every time someone got too close to her, entered or left the tavern.

Elijah checked the empty street from habit before darting across to the dingy tavern that squatted between two equally run-down building. It wasn't his favorite bar, but it was one of the few strictly-enforce neutral territory bars in Mevarron... well, as neutral a bar as one could find in Mevaronn anyways. Pushing through the door, his lips quirked upwards as conversation stopped for a few seconds before resuming. His vampiric hearing could pick up the snickers and whispered insults as he walked by, but no one dared to insult his rather flamboyant dress outright. Throwing a Viking through a window, and cracking a support post with a chewawae's skull had put a certain damper on the insults thrown around. Didn't stop them, but only those new to the bar were stupid enough to say them out loud. The vampire weaved his way through to the back of the bar and slid onto a bar stool. Flipping a silver coin to the barkeep, he waited for his drink to be poured, not immediately aware of a certain hated enemy at the other end of the bar.

The Vampire's presence went undetected by the Slayer. Vampires were a constant here, and they were so often it was usually hard to separate an indivual scent from the mass. What did catch her eye though was the sudden tenseness the barkeep, and a few other staffing fae's and bar patrons, seemed to develop. One ear perked up in mild annoyance as she watched the barkeeps eyes flick between her and someone farther down. ....Oh you have got to be kidding. Nyx's eyes narrowed as they settled on a familar -she mentally gagged for using such a word to describe him of all people - form. She grabbed her drink and slowly stalked off to the other edge of the bar. "I swear to god. If you ordered some girly drink, you should just get a sex change and be done with it."

Elijah growled his thanks as the barkeep set his drink in front of him. Picking up the glass, he knocked it back in one gulp before setting it back on the counter. "Anoth-... oh, freakin' ******** a duck, are you kidding me?" Of all the bars in Mevarron, she would be in this one. Grabbing the shot glass before it even hit the counter, he slammed it back before sliding off the stool and stalked around the suddenly empty bar. "Who let that homeless bum in here, I thought this place had a damn dress code." He'd be damned if he was going to let that annoying little Slayer ruin his evening! ((And yes, knowing him, it's probably some fruity drink. wink ))

Nyx rolled her eyes. "Says the wanna-be-trans." She shrugged. "Wither you choose to believe it or not I could care less. But I -do- have some place I crash." The slayer then snorted. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Elijah rubbed at the now familiar twitch under his eye. "The only 'wanna-be' is you, you annoying little twit. I can't even seem to enjoy a drink without you showing up like a herpes sore, always at the wrong moment." He took a sip of his drink, then shifted it to his right hand as he drew his left back. Suddenly, it felt like his hand was encased in a vice-grip. Elijah winced, then looked over his shoulder at the black, skull-and-skeleton Viking staring at him with red eyes. "There be a problem here?" Elijah cringed. He might be a Viking, but NO ONE dared to cross Tullok Bonesnap. The Viking glared Elijah, then turned that eerie stare onto Nyx. "I don't like having my evening beer... disrupted." Elijah winced as his hand was nearly crushed. "Ah, right. No problem. Just a minor disagreement with little miss raggedy skank here."

"Riiiiiiight. Atleast I don't dress like the opposite gender." Nyx couldnt help, and couldn't fight back the fit of giggles that sprang to life in her throat as the Viking grabbed Elijah's hand. She had seen the viking skulking about the tavern on a number of occasions when she had decided to stop long enough for a drink. While they never exchanged words, she herself knew better then to irritate the male. "So then go back to your corner and drink." She quipped. "I have done nothing other then sit at the bar for hours." Red eyes momentarily flicked to the semi captive vampire. True she had gone over to him first, but she had been in the tavern far long then he had that night. Another giggle slipped through her lips. "I wouldn't say such things E-li-jah." She taunted, drawing out the syllables in his name. "Just as vampires frequent here. There are those that rather like my line of work.. Also, just as an fyi.. Keep in mind the few who do not tolerate such language directed at a female." She once again looked back at the viking before turning to order something for the barkeep. One for herself, and one for the viking in an act of thanks.

Tullok's lips quirked as he released the vampire's hand from his iron grip. Elijah muttered under his breath as he began to vigorously rub sensation back into his hand. The Viking nodded his thanks to the Slayer before emptying the mug in three gulps. "If I didn't know better, I'd almost say you two were married." The Viking shrugged as he turned and headed back into the crowd. Elijah probably would have laughed, if he didn't have such a horrified look on his face at the thought. Quickly composing himself, he scowled at Nyx. "I'll go back to my end when you go back to yours, and you'd have to be a female first before someone could actually be offended at my language." The barkeep gulped nervously as Elijah got nose-to-nose with the Slayer. "Maybe I should just kick your a** right here and... now..." He cut his eyes, seeing Tullok glaring at him from across the tavern.

She had been halfway through her drink when she spit it back out at the Vikings words, just barely missing Elijah. Oops. Well that was unitentional. Nyx coughed a few times before looking at Tullok. "I'd sooner DIE." She yelled after him. She blinked a few times as her personal space bubble was invaded to a new level. "... You idiot. Did you not learn anything from that? Christ. You're going to get your a** kicked in this place and you wont even see it coming."

Elijah looked down at her from his not-really-a-height-advantage and sneered at the Slayer. "In case you missed it, I'm a vampire, you little tramp. Like I'm going to be frightened by a large, scary, unnatural-looking Viking. I'd break him like a twig." He sniffed in disdain. "Only way you'd be able to beat anything larger than an ant is if it took pity on you." He looked over at the barkeep, who broke into a cold sweat when he grinned suddenly. "Tell you what, you annoying little tramp. How about we fight like civilized beings, hard as that might be for you." He looked back at the Slayer. "Drinking match, if you have the guts for it."

Nyx snorted, she had no doubts he could snap someone in half. "That may be true but even -you- have a limit to how much you can take on." She snipped back. A wing on her back twitched. "I beat you didn't I?" She glanced at the Barkeep. Poor guy was probably gonna need to bath in holy water for a week after this. ...Either that or go on a really nice vacation. "Fine. But -real- drinks. None of your sissy fruity girl drinks.

Elijah's eye twitched as he took a seat at the bar. "Only because I underestimated you the first time, you rag-wearing skank. Who got her a** handed to her in the rematch?" He sneered as he snapped his fingers. The barkeep appear almost instantly, sweating so profusely one might have thought he'd been thrown in a pool. "Y-yes, sir?" Elijah grinned lazily as he dropped a small bag of gold coins on the counter. "Screaming Lightnings, barkeep, and keep them coming until she's comatose on the floor." He smirked at Nyx. "And don't worry, I'm paying so you can save your allowance and maybe get some real clothes someday. Well, some fashion sense and clothes."

"Get a new insult kid."She leaned her head on her hand as she watched the Barkeep make the drinks. "... What do you wanna bet he's gonna change his hours so the tavern closes at Sundown now?" She snickered. ...It was always fun to watch others squirm. Another roll of her eyes. "Anything I buy will be better then your outfit." she snorted. "Seriously. How many copies of the same outfit do you have?!"

"I'm older than you, brat." He couldn't help but snort. "Either that, or he'll hire someone else to run the night shift from now on. He sweats anymore, we're going to be swimming here soon enough." The barkeep returned with two shot glasses of a vile, poisonous green liquid. Nyx's sported a pale, almost invisible purple flame on top, while the barkeep wisely kept Elijah's flame-free. Grabbing the bag of gold, he quickly tucked it away before turning to work on the next round. Elijah picked his up and was gentlemanly enough to wait for the Slayer to pick hers up so they could clink glasses. "I'll have you know this dress is one of a kind, and I spent a small fortune to enchant it so it stays clean. And I happen to have quite the closet of fashion. Maybe I should lock you in it for a year so you'd get some fashion sense." He tilted his head to the side. "Then again, I'd probably have to burn everything after having you near it."

(XD Technically she is older. She's an 10.) "So? I've seen younger children act like adults more then I've seen the latter. Age is merely a number. It has nothing to do with maturity." Tapping the glass against his, with enough courtesy to not make the flame jump to the other's glass. "b***h please. It looks like the same damn thing I tore to shreds. And at least I'd stay away from colors that clashed with my fur." ... Or in this case it would probably be her hair that she'd have to watch. Very few things went with that shade of blue.
