*Irene awoke, hearing something outside. She stood and pulled on her robe, then reached for the crucifix she kept under her pillow. She approached the window, trying to see through the fog.*

*Vlad sighed. Too many ghosts from the past. He'd be better just moving on. But still, perhaps just one last look to the slumbering lady. He turned, only to find himself facing her. His eyes widened slightly in surprise at the vision before him. So lovely...so...like... He shook the thought away. He knew he should flee, there was no decent reason for him to be on her balcony, and yet he found himself chained to the spot.*

*Slowly, Irene grew to feel she was being watched.*
"Hello?"
*Despite herself, she did not feel frightened.*

*Unavoidably caught, he did the only thing he could think to do in such a situation. He bowed deeply, still separated by the glass as she approached.*

*At last, she saw the man who had been watching her. SHe stood frozen to the spot*

*Vlad looked up slowly, taking her in before lowering his eyes respectfully.*
"Good evening, my lady." *He spoke to the glass, hoping she could hear him.*
"Do not be afraid, I will not harm you."

"Who are you? What do you want of me?"
*His eyes- something about them made it hard to look away*

((It's those crazy hypno-eyes...))
"I am..."
*He swallowed carefully.*
"I am only a traveler, paused for a moment's rest. I did not mean to startle you."
*His eyes were gentle.*
"Please, forgive me my inappropriate use of your balcony."

"How did you-"

*She had him there, and he didn't have a good answer. He could try to lie his way around it, or tell the truth, but neither of those seemed decent options.*
"I...it was not expected, I swear."
*All right, so now what?*
"If...it is not too much to ask..."
*His eyes were soft.*
"Might I use your stairs back down again?"

"You have my oath...my word..."
*He watched her carefully, but was in no way imposing. Just...lonely-looking.*
"What more can I offer you?"

He does the duty of two sons now. For himself; and for the one who will not return.

((This one seems pretty nice- you want violence, go for Marc Warren Dracula.))
*Knowing she shouldn't but somehow unable to refuse, Irene opened the door.*
