Ryan watched as others passed into and out of the pub, it was a popular hangout spot, especially with other species than his own. He never really fit in with normal people, most treated him like some sort of freak, at least here, he had managed to make a friend or two during his many visits.

The man tossed his jacket into the passenger seat and untucked his own black dress shirt from his pants, he hated looking too formal though his attire really didn't change from what he wore now. His eyes shifted back to the building as thick fog rolled into the streets, giving the pub a more eerie vibe than usual. A perfect excuse to spend more of his time drinking.

Ryan pushed passed a couple of unhappy Vampires trying to charm him into taking a joy ride with them but turned them down, it wouldn't be the first time he denied their kind. He waved to the bartender inside who greeted him and pointed him to an empty booth before turning their attention to a few customers who shouted out for drinks. "I'll be with ya in a sec Ryan, just take your normal seat I'll put in the usual for ya hun" Ryan nodded appreciatively before taking his seat, he glanced around admiring the different creatures in the lounge, people watching was far more entertaining when you knew that they weren't all human.

Karla let out a relaxed sigh as the fog danced around her form, she twirled letting the wisps of moisture envelop her body giggling joyfully at the sight. She loved New Orleans far more than she ever imagined, every night seemed to be a new experience to her. It was no wonder so many creatures chose to live here, despite the city always having been famous when it came to the otherworldly or supernatural it was simply a beautiful place in general.
She hummed happily weaving in between trees as she made her way towards her destination. "I can't believe they wouldn't take it... If I'm right it shouldn't be long until I find that school they talked about."

As the woman walked green energy seemed to appear around her intertwining with the fog that seemed to followed her. She had been directed to a school for magical creatures for her talent, she didn't feel even they would find her useful others seemed convinced that she would find her place here.

Ryan took a large bite from his burger and sipped on a beer while reviewing a log of appointments he had for the week. Nothing seemed particularly promising but he always had hope that things would turn his way eventually. He glanced up every now and then locking eye contact with the various creatures or faeries that didn't seem too pleased to be sharing the establishment with a human but shrugged it off, even their kind required his talents at some point.
He didn't feel the need to prove he belonged, there were plenty of others who had stopped and made small talk with the man, whether it was of his personal life, or how business was going. He knew there were people there he could go to if things ever got ugly.
