“Let me guess, one of the lights were out, so they were all out? Happens to me every year. I end up going out and buying new bulbs or new lights, either way I think it’s a scam.” He joked. “Tell me you at least picked out your own tree? You don’t even have to decorate it, just that it was picked out by you.”
Tumblr media
“You know it so well, man,” he chuckled shaking his head. “And yeah, that did happen among a few other problems as well,”he uttered wryly, thinking back of the few other tiny fiasco’s that had happened during his hour of trying to decorate by himself the other day. “And I think you might be on to something there with this being an annual, festive con-job that’s been going on undetected over the years,” he remarked, half serious and half- humorous.
Tumblr media
“Well, “he responded, a little shamefully this time, “I half-did. I mean I was there but I never really had much interest in trees, so I kinda just listened to the 5 best recommended choices, the professional over there in the Christmas tree lot was explaining to me and just went with whatever I felt was best within a decision time span of 5 minutes, after she had finished her sales pitch.” he chuckled a little self-consciously.

“Well, as luck would have it, the woman I hooked up with last night unfortunately happens to have a husband. A very irate and hot-tempered husband whom I would prefer not to have a physical altercation  with, even if my wounds do heal rather fast,”he remarked a little wryly, as he gave a quick explanation as to why he had unplannedly broke into this place. “Let’s just say that he already had his key in the lock when I had to speedily climb out of their bedroom window, in this very apartment building, to avoid being clobbered by said husband,”he grinned sheepishly at the brunette.
“So I am very,  terribly sorry for disturbing you and possibly alarming you with my bizarre presence in here, but I assure you that I’m not a serial killer or anything of that sort,”he apologized sincerely, before flashing her a genuine smile despite the fact that the dark-haired girl now couldn’t possibly see it with her trying her best to not look at him. Despite feeling apologetic for possibly panicking the young girl, he simultaneously also felt highkey-humored by the whole situation, especially with the way the young female was trying to apparently protect the virtue of her eyes. “Uh,.. thanks so much,”he uttered gratefully as he reached out his arm to take the clothes from the girl. His very sharp vampiric hearing then immediately caught the whole of her last sentence despite her mumbling it. “Why, thank you very much also for the compliment, beautiful,”he let out a silvery chuckle, as he then began to put on the jeans first.
Addy quickly looked around the room trying to avoid her eyes from the man before picking up a shirt and jeans. “Alright, I would suggest putting these on because I don’t think I could look over at you right now without your clothes on.” She gave him a quick smile. “Though you do have a nice body.” She mumbled.

“Nah, it’s chill,”he smiled easily. “There’s no need to apologize really,”he muttered kindly. “I’m pretty much used to all kinds of people staring at me after so many years, thus I was making a joke love,”he chuckled deeply, a trifle amused by her this doe-eyed, beautiful brunette’s polite innocence.
“I most certainly am!!”he grinned widely, flashing her his most charming smile, with his set of perfectly white teeth, adding to the brightness of his eyes. “And erm, considering that I’ve just only got to town a couple of days ago and have yet the chance to explore much of it yet, would you be so kind as to recommend the best coffee house in town or at least, the cafe that offers the best coffee in town?”he asked her easily, his eyes twinkling.
Tumblr media
“Ooh, that sounds ominous,” he remarked at her last statement, though his tone was still playful. “Please don’t tell me that I have to start setting up crisis- secret-emergency basements or preparing for mayday care and relief packages.” he joked.
Amara finally pulled her gaze away from his as he spoke, squeezing her eyes shut and shaking her head for a brief moment as if to bring her back to reality. Her head filled with thoughts as to what may have happened to him; he clearly does not recognize her based on his expression. Had it been so long that he forgot about her? Was it really him? Was her mind just playing tricks on her? Should she try to jog his memory? That could possibly just do more harm. She had no choice but to go along with his charade, hoping that at some point he would finally remember her. “I - sorry.” She said softly. “I didn’t meant to stare. Coffee would be wonderful if you are offering. And then we can talk about the goings on of New Orleans that you should be prepared for.”

“Perhaps because some people aren’t sure if they’ll be able to spend Christmas with their family.” Amara muttered, without looking up from the notebook she was scribbling in. She was grateful that she finally had a daylight ring and wasn’t confined to darkness; but there were still so many details of her life that were completely up in the air. Amara finally looked up at the man, opening her mouth to speak, but the moment she set her eyes on him she was speechless. No matter how much may have changed, she could recognize those eyes anywhere. Even 2000 years later. She willed herself to stop staring, but she could not manage to take her eyes away. The only thing she managed was to close her mouth so she didn’t look like quite as much of a freak. She had convinced herself that she would never see him again. And yet here he was.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Now that’s a very depressing thought,”he murmured with a slightly serious expression entering his blue eyes for a few seconds. He sighed deeply, shaking his head. “Why, did something awful happen to New Orleans very recently?”he asked, his gaze concentrating on the brunette as he waited for her to look up, with a genuine, concerned expression on his face. When she finally did look up, he was both pleasantly slightly startled and amused at her reaction towards him. There had been a few dozens of times already when he had females and also males and non-binaries, staring at his quite-obvious good looks, but the way this female was staring...it was slightly different. Nate couldn’t really interpret exactly what it was, but it was definitely rather different and he was pretty sure, that it didn’t look like admiration, appreciation or even lust. Giving the girl a very amused smile, he then spoke again,” Y’know, if you’re going to be staring deeply at me for a rather long period of time, at least please allow me to buy you a drink as it’ll be more worth your time then,”he grinned widely in slight humor. “Alcohol? Coffee? Juice? Anything you want, beautiful,”he grinned, his offer genuine.
And without showing it on the outside, Nate had, at the same time, from the very moment she lifted her head and their gazes met, he had a very eerie feeling, like he had seen those exquisite looking dark eyes before. It was an inexplicable moment, which he immediately had then tried to shake it off. The girl had rather uniquely beautiful eyes, that was true, but it shouldn’t be causing him to have a slightly disturbing feeling inside of him. It wasn’t even his first time meeting a female with exotic or extremely beautiful looking eyes, heck he had even met girls with more beautiful and more rare set of unique eyes than hers. So her eyes couldn’t possibly mean anything to him.. thus, he brushed off that initial small but odd feeling of his.

Matt looked over as the man went into an exciting rant about Christmas, following what the guy was saying, he then paused as a brow lifted. “Doesn’t the whole ‘Christmas spirit’ involve decorating your own house?”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Well, I did engage in that activity for a bit,”he admitted. “But after an hour of some frustrating Christmas lights and wreaths malfunctions which was also slightly boring, I just simply gave up,”he confessed with a shameless smile. “Plus, I was never really that good with doing decorations, especially house decorating, so wouldn’t it be a whole lot better if I just leave it to the professionals and engage myself with other kinds of ‘Christmas spirit’ activities instead?” he commented with a small smirk.

“Well, no..”he admitted with small laugh. “I doubt that be a very pleasing experience,”he gave an amused grin. “ But wouldn’t it be so cool though, if you could see it  ablaze  with flames, and yet it’s never ever going to damagedly burn at all, like what that Fantastic Four superhero, ‘The Human Torch’, could do?”he teased, his eyes twinkling with mischief.

“Why are most of the people I have bumped into over these past few days,  not yet in the Christmas spirit?” Nate asked humorously as he spread his arms slightly in wonder. “It’s already the 4th of December, guys! Heck, I myself have already a dedicated team of decorators busy at work, decorating my brand new three-days-old house with Christmas deco from top to bottom. And seriously, it’s till the very bottom as I leave nothing out, not even my two basements,”he remarked with a small chuckle.

“Why’s that? “he asked with a humorous smile,  his bright blue eyes crinkling in slightly scrutinizing amusement, as he glanced at the younger male. “In my own honest opinion, I’m actually rather genial and favorably predisposed towards them as I have a lot of witch friends and if you think about it from another angle, you’ll also find them very useful especially in times of danger or crisis. But then again, maybe it’s because I’ve been generally in contact with kind and nice witches,”he grinned a little self-consciously. “I’m guessing you’ve been mingling with the opposite kind of witches, huh? “he remarked with a wry grin. Being near the presence of this younger male seemed to give him a quite small, but very weird vibe. Some tiny sliver of unknown feeling was creeping around his body, but Nate honestly had no idea whatever it was that he was subtly feeling right now. Feeling uncomfortable, he then inwardly tried his best to shake it off and concentrated on what the younger blonde-haired male had to say in reply.
Tumblr media
“I hate witches so much,” he groaned, the effects of Silas’s actions still getting to him.

“Well, I should hope so,” he grinned jokingly. “I have been working and training very hard on the art and profession of flattery for many fine years,”he stated, clearly making an obvious joke. “It would be a huge waste and pity if all that years of hard work didn’t pay off,”he sighed a little dramatically, with a playful spark dancing at the corner of his eyes. “But anyway, thank you very much, my dear kind and sweet superheroine, “he uttered gratefully just a couple of seconds before the redheaded female left him, seemingly going to search for a set of clothes for him.
He stretched out his arm gratefully as he took the brand new set of clothes and fresh clean towel she had just dropped to the ground. “Yes, I do, my fair lady, my name’s Nate. Nate Clifford,”he winked at her accompanied with a pair of pleasantly-smiling clear baby blue eyes, before he vamp speeded out of the water and managed to speedily wrap the towel around his waist downwards, before the other could even blink and then regarded her again with a wide smile.  “Now if could please stay put, miss, I’ll be back,”he commented as he playfully repeated her earlier phrase but in his own way. He then vampire speeded to the nearest toilet he could see and then quickly changed into the set of clothes the girl has gave him. After a few minutes, he was then speeding back to the location where he had left the redhead. “Now, I do hope that you’re a member of the supernatural, or I’m afraid I’ll have to compel you to forget everything you just saw, he smiled before letting out a small sigh. “And to be honest I rather not do that, because I would love to make your acquaintance,”he gave a small smile.

Sage smirked idly as she stared down at the naked man. Her feet stayed just out of reach of the waves lapping up onto the shore. The vampire nodded once before lifting a brow. “Flattery may earn you a new set of clothes.” She admitted before looking around and biting into her lower lip. “Just stay put, I’ll be back.” She said before disappearing for ten minutes before returning with a towel and new set of clothes. “Do you have a name?” She asked as she dropped the things down at her side as she looked him over.

❤- Aegeus(back in Ancient Greece), can be any kind of kiss really, first kiss on her hand/ cheek/ forehead /lips :)
❤ … receiving a kiss from your muse | @xxxnate-clifford
Having just given birth to their first (and only) child, Amara felt like a sweaty, weak, disgusting mess. Yet at the same time, she felt as if she were on top of the world and nothing could bring her down. As much as she requested for Aegeus to be present, the midwife vehemently refused, claiming that it was not appropriate for the man to be present.
After what felt like days of pain that only truly lasted hours, Amara begged the midwife to let Aegeus come in while she was cleaning and taking care of the baby. The midwife sent away another in the room to retrieve Aegeus as Amara lay alone, staring up at the top of the tent as thoughts worry swarmed through her head. Would she be a good mother? Would even she know how to care for a child? 
Those thoughts only subsided as she felt lips press against her forehead. Instantly, a smile graced her lips as her gaze shifted to meet her husband’s. Looking into his eyes, she knew that everything was going to be okay. One thing that she would forever be thankful for was that she was able to marry a man that she truly loved. Her entire life she knew that she would be subject to an arranged marriage, that she would have to learn to love whoever had been chosen for her. Yet, the gods obviously wanted Aegeus and Amara to marry as everything just happened to fall into place. She was able to look up at her husband and know that they truly loved each other and with him by her side, everything was going to be okay.
After a moment, the midwife came over, a swaddled baby in her arms. Amara looked up at Aegeus once more before the midwife placed the baby in her arms. Looking down at her son, she knew she had been blessed with the perfect little family, a husband that she truly loved and now a son that she would protect with her life. A bright smile spread across her lips as the baby in her arms looked up at her with these big, blue eyes, just like his fathers. She looked up at her husband once more, the smile plastered across her face as he leaned down to kiss her. “I love you.” she whispered. She could not have been more in love with him than in that moment. She knew that this would be a moment that she would cherish for a lifetime.

Send me a symbol for my muse’s reaction to…
 ➳…realizing they’re in love with your muse for the first time
Aegeus sat up and leaned forward eagerly  in his chair for the first time ever in the whole slightly boring evening when Amara came forward and approached the elaborately carved council table where the few council heads of the vast town they were living in, was sitting. Sitting right at the center of the table was Dēmḗtrios, their Chief Leader and head council and surprisingly enough, right next to him ,sat his wife, Halcyone. Now this would have been an extremely strange spectacle, outrageous and even downright wrong in terms of societal laws and  customs of their time, for her to be sitting amongst a table of the most important men in their land if it were any normal day. But it wasn’t any normal day. It so happened to be Halcyone’s 35th birthday and while it was very rare for a woman’s birthday to be celebrated in public, let alone celebrated at all, Halcyone however was deemed a woman of the highest caliber and a shining paragon of example for all the rest of the women of their town to look up to and emulate due to her vast variety of excellent skillsets and most importantly, her highly fertile body that gave Dēmḗtrios12 healthy children, with nary a single stillborn babe or miscarriage and 10 out of those 12 kids were male heirs. Thus, in the eyes of the council and most of the male society in the town, she was the most blessed woman ever to grace their land and Dēmḗtrioswas without a doubt besotted with his wife, though he still kept a string of lovers and mistresses on the side, over the years. Thus, they graciously assented to Dēmḗtriosunusual request just this once, for him to celebrate his wife’s birthday with pomp for once in her life. To the rest of the town, she was deemed the shining prime example of where all the other females should look up to, follow her examples and revere her as a shining light of the perfect wife. In Aegeus own personal opinion however, from what he had seen or heard of her, from his life growing up here, he secretly deemed her to be a woman with a rather horrible personality, condescending in nature, a shrew and highly temperamental woman with secretly vicious temper which she use to lash out at her household servants and handmaidens. He wasn’t the kind of man to care much about the outer beauty of a woman nor her apparent obvious skillsets or whether she was highly fertile or not. True, he wanted children, and he wanted them because he loved to be a father and secretly could not care less if he were to blessed with either sons or daughters, though he wasn’t so silly as to not hope as to have one son at least to carry down his family house name. As for a women’s talents or skills, well, it would be nice and even delightful of course, if his future wife were to be witty and have pretty good skills in a few things which would make their married life more interesting and perhaps with that they would be able to bond better together, thus that was the only main reason he would really give much care about that aspect for his potential bride. As for outer beauty and looks, while it was factually, aesthetically pleasing to look at, those things wouldn’t last forever and would eventually fade easily over the years, thus to Aegeus, the most important beauty he would wish to see in his wife was the beauty of her heart and soul for that, in his brains, would last for all eternity.
And for the past hour or was it (30 hours already??), Aegeus had been subjected to sit on a chair along with the most of other males in their town in the grand hall of Dēmḗtrios vast, and expensive home, all of the seats being arranged in two lines of double circles around the hall, while, most of the females, regardless of whether they were married, single or shamefully divorced, came forward one by one to present their own chosen  birthday gift to Halycone and then depart as quickly as they came in. With his rather good- natured and jovial heart, Aegeus was at first, genial and in a pleasing mood during the beginning of the ceremony. But after an hour of sitting in a rather uncomfortable chair and watching dozens of ladies streaming in one by one in turns to present their gifts which quit frankly, most of them had come up with almost  the same gift concept or idea, Aegues was slowly losing his initial complacent patience and growing increasingly bored out of his mind and wished for nothing more than the whole ceremony to be over and done with as fast as Hermes could fly with his winged sandals.
However, the very moment a very familiar figure of a woman came into the hall after the other had went out and the door had been firmly shut behind her, Aegeus spirits had immediately brightened and his heart seemed to soar even higher up his chest. Despite her formal, concealing attire and veil that was customary for her to wear in public occasions such as this, he could without a singe moment of doubt in his very bones, knew that the young girl walking slowly in the middle of the hall right now was Amara. His heart started to beat a little faster and he sucked in his breath which  he had no idea that he had been unconsciously holding in the first place, as he watched Amara slowly lower down the part of the veil covering her face so that she could talk and present her gift with grace and respect. There she was again with her enchantingly beautiful, soft doe-eyes eyes with the most beautiful shade of brown he had ever seen, that was always was filled with pure innocence and kindness, perfectly carved facial features that seemed to be brimming with happiness whenever he caught a glimpse or look of her and beautifully curved lips that he knew for a fact held nothing but loving words that fell from her lips to anyone that she talked to. He for once, couldn’t care less of his father noticed his change of posture and peaked interest into the event for he was too busy concentrating and interestedly watching what Amara was going to present to Halcyone. His heart then brimmed with pride, admiration and the highest respect for her a couple of minuted later, for it seemed as like Amara had given Halcyone a present that topped all the other previous females’ presents. It even caused that haughty woman to pause in silence , apparently slightly disturbed with emotions as she held Amara’s gift which was an extremely beautiful embroidery work piece. And it turned out to be not just any piece of embroidery but there was something stitched into the design of that piece that signified something of great sentimental significance to Halcyone from her past. Aegeus had no idea how Amara had found out that vital piece of information and then took that in as her idea for the perfect meaningful gift for that woman, which also happened to be the same woman who had only a mere month ago, made scornful and condescending remarks about Amara in front of Amara’s face!With that knowledge in mind, Aegeus heart seemed to brim over with adoration and highly golden respect for that brunette girl over her cleverness as well as the graciousness of her compassionate heart. Good Gods, how he loved that woman! Aegeus thoughts then came into a screeching halt the very moment after he had realized what his inner heart and head had just declared inside of him. ..He loved her? He-..he loved her! His heart and spirits soared up so fast  and euphorically high that he was sure that they would burst out of him soon if that was ever possible, once he realized his true romantic and pure love feelings for her. Growing up with a rather traditional family, he never gave much hope that he would ever get to marry a woman which he truly loved or more insanely, considering the society they lived in, the woman of his dreams. But then Amara had appeared in his life like some magical being he never once expected to encounter and from the first day he had fatefully bumped into her and caught a glimpse of her before she apologized and rushed away, he had felt remarkable drawn to her from that moment on. His slightly unexplainable attraction for her, grew more and more, during the next few more times they had encountered each other over these past few months, a couple of those times being purely coincidental and the rest, well.. he had purposefully planned ahead to be at a a place he knew she would be going to outside in public society with the accompaniment of her brother. And despite their very brief interactions and conversations with each other during those times, he somehow felt like he was miraculously able to understand her and getting to put together pieces of her personality and character rather well in his own quiet reflections after each small interaction. Well, now that he definitely knew for certain that he loved her and she was indeed the epitome of the woman of his dreams so far, and he was most intently henceforth wanted to gentlemanly court her as much as he could despite society’s constraints and limits, his current situation also begged the looming question of whether or not, she felt the same way about him. For the first time ever in his life, the usually rather confident and decently self-assured Aegeus was begining to feel the risings of fear as well as anxiety. Good Gods, what if she didn’t love him back, or worse, she didn’t even like him? No, no. He pushed the latter thought away as not possible, as it did seem from their past few interactions, she appeared to seem to like him and his presence…Or that could merely be her being polite and also because of her place as a woman in their Greek society....Dammit, get a grip, Aegeus! He then took in a deep breath in order to calm himself a little bit, though it still didn’t help much with his frenzy of a beating heart. Soon. He had to meet her soon somehow and in someway, and whether or not, she was chaperoned or not by her brother at that time too, he didn’t care. He had to see her tomorrow or at least the latest, the day after tomorrow. He just had to get the answer to his question as fast as possible for he knew, that for once in his life, he wasn’t going to get a good night’s sleep till he knew of her answer. And it was at that moment whereby the confident and independent Aegeus for the first time, felt overwhelmed with feelings of uncertainty and huge worries of the romantic side of his heart.

“I guess this makes you the damsel in distress, huh, handsome?“ (sage)
Enchanted  {Sentence Starters}“It would seem so,” Nate laughed a little self-consciously and a tiny bit embarrassingly as he looked at his totally naked body at the body half-submerged in the water. Apparently some desperate thief had decided that Nate’s casual but rather expensive t-shirt and pants was worth stealing, even his damn boxers. Shaking his head lightly but his usual self-confidence returning somewhat, he then looked up again at the female with a slight grin.  “Luckily I seem to have a charming and highly attractive, redhead lady superheroine to rescue me right now, huh?..Please? “he begged, though his eyes at the same time, held a tiny playful and slightly mischievous smirk.

was that ( c. evans )? no, it’s just ( nathaniel “nate” clifford). they are the (27-238 ) year old ( vampire ). i heard they’re (outgoing and easy-going  ) but also ( flirtatious and happy-go-lucky). rumor has it they ( haven’t ) pledged allegiance to the hollow. i must warn you, neutrality is not an option. ⚜  Hihi dear peeps, A here again with a new character & i would love to plot with anyone interested in forming connections or all kinds of plots with Nate here ;)  ⚜   Just like this post if interested and i’ll im you <3    
soooo he is amara’s ex-husband and father of August. Since he is from ancient greece like Amara, Silas and the others, his name ofc isn’t actually Nate Clifford, as he has recently adopted that in the 21st century in order to blend in with the times. His real name is Aegeus.
Life in Ancient Greece, some time in the 1st century BC, as a normal human:
So far, Andrea and I have plotted that he and amara married out of love and it was not an arranged marriage, tho i think their union was probably approved by both their families considering that they didn’t elope and that most marriages were usually arranged by the families at that time, and theirs waren’t. She was 14 and he 24 when they got married, big age gap i know, but then again it was very, very common during those times to even marry someone 30 years older ryt? XD But anyway, he and Amara fell really fast and headlong in love with each other.
 So far i have it in my head that he was a nice, independent, had pretty smart brains, determined, decent & very well-mannered, kind, brave and quite the dutiful son to his parents. He was also rather proud ( not really much in the negative way but more in the sense that he valued honor and respect a lot, takes pride in keeping his dignity, face, name and family name as well as family honor upright. he can also be brash at certain decisions.
He and Amara had a very loving, happy and faithful marriage which was why August was born with so much love and adoration from both his parents quite soon after their union. Poor man didn’t get to be with his son for long tho, as about a year after August was born, he got sent way/ joined the war (I have to clear this detail with Andrea first tho before 100% confirming it as part of his story;D haha)
Life after Ancient Greece and as a vampire:
Okie so he died at war, when he was 27, unfortunately leaving behind a widowed Amara and baby toddler August :( In the year of 1811, he was suddenly resurrected back to life as a human by a witch in London, who was hungrily trying to see if she could create a resurrection spell and he was one of the 3 ppl that she successfully brought back to life and which she randomly chose from very diff past centuries. Her spell however, wasn’t fully successful in the end, as 2 out of the 3 people she brought back to life, died after only a week. And hence, amara’s ex-husband was also about to die very soon and so the witch, desperate to ensure the survival of at least one of her ‘magical science lab-rats/ pet projects’, she then asked a vampire friend of hers to help turn him into a vampire so as to make sure that he live. He was very weak as a resurrected human at that time and barely conscious most of the time and not really aware of what was happening to him. So it was only after he had transitioned into a vampire, only did he fully wake up, was conscious and brimming back to health, full of life. Brains working, senses alert and everything, he was thus told abt what they both did to him and he then ultimately remembered who he was, his whole identity and former life as a human with Amara in the ancient times. He was thus grief-stricken and devastated to know that he was know alive in a completely diff era and Amara and his whole family was obvs. long dead for more than a thousand centuries already. Since he was now a vamp and knowing that he would then have to live for an infinite number of years without his family and friends from the past, he then seeked help & bumped into a kind-hearted witch whom he begged her to help him. Now this 2nd witch also happens to be one of Xandria’s ancestors in the past btw :)P He requested her to help him take away  all of his memories of being alive in ancient times, basically his whole former life as a human & most especially of having a wife and child, as it pained him too much & it was too suffering for him to think about both of them especially.  And Xandria’s London ancestor at that time, determined to keep her promise to him to help relieve him of his painful memories of the past, then spun him a new life story lie, after she had removed his real past memories and told him a simple story of him ‘being born and raised in that current 18th century and that his family members were dead already and he himself had been in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and was caught in a crossfire sword&gun fight between a group of people , leading to his untimely death. As he was almost dying, he was then revived by a passing vampire who took pity on the man having to die so young’, the very same vampire who had turned him earlier in the first place & who happened to be Xandria’s ancestor’s lover! ( thus as y’all can see that besides wanting to be kind to the poor lad, she also wanted to protect her lover’s butt and not having Aegeus come after him for revenge of having turned him into a vampire against his will. She also kept a few secret diaries during her lifetime, so she did also write in the whole account of everything that had happened and what she did, in one of those diaries, which is now in Xandria’s collection of diaries, which Xandria had dug up among many others of her ancestors,  over the passing years and compiled into her own keeping for knowledge. ( about half of the women and some of the men in Xandria’s family tree of ancestors, including Xandria herself, kept diaries lmaoXD)
She and her vampire lover then helped him to adapt to both living as a supernatural while still perfectly appearing as a ‘normal human’ in the 18th century and after her death, said vampire also helped him for  a little while longer on how to change his culture of living based on whichever time period he was in and how to blend in and quickly adapt to each passing of period of change in the human society. As he still had a few traits from his former life, he was a quick learner, and grew to be very independent and bold & by some miracle, seemed to have a strong sense of business acumen. Thus for the past 2 centuries, he had worked very hard from the bottom to the top of society and eventually dabbled in many, various enterprises and business deals over his 211 years of living as a vampire.
Hence, he has by now accumulated a great amount of wealth and he also has changed his identity and name over the years to appear as a perfectly normal 27 year old ‘human’ and traveled widely to many diff places. He came to the States  after WW2, and has been living in many diff places all around US until now.
He has come to NOLA largely because he wants to oversee the starting operations of a new branch of one of his businesses there and isn’t really bothered nor cares about whatever is brewing in NOLA right now. He also had this very tiny , weird feeling in him some weeks back, that seemed to be calling him to NOLA, that tiny subconscious gut feeling that is kinda giving him a hint that it is imperative that he be in NOLA rn. But he had then quickly brushed off this feeling shortly after he felt it as nothing much to it and dismiss the small unknown hint. He’s just there to attend to his affairs, have a fun time, enjoying himself as much as possible in this vibrant city and then leave.  His personality currently is of a v flirtatious, fun and easy-going person with a happy-go-lucky , v carefree personality, & also with an enterprising business mind on the side . He’s also a non-committal person and enjoys his bachelorhood way too much to settle down anytime soon, hahaXD. He is also very friendly and likes to dwell on the positive instead of the negative.
