Flutter bowed her head politely. "It may seem strange but... My blood increasing is bad... I-I need to get rid of the excess somehow and I really don't want to go to the hospital..." She murmured the words quietly, but was relieved to find that she was being laughed at only for asking such a question that normally would be something people were afraid of, not for thinking them vampires. "A man said that it wouldn't cause trouble for you if I asked, so..." She did take a step closer as she was motioned to, bowing one last time. "I'm sorry for the trouble..."

"I was popular also, but only because I was good at sports. Then again, I hated when people suddenly walked up to me as if I'd known them forever. Popularity is really annoying, isn't it? Or am I the only one that feels that way?" Chloe giggled a bit to herself. "The track team's captain was always hitting on me too...I really hate that guy... He doesn't understand the word no, it seems."

[Tazha_bear]

Hataka simply smirked. No she didn't technically like taking blood from humans, or other vamps or anything of the sort, simply because they always had to make the other lose their grip for a moment so they could slip them into the haze to numb the pain... Which meant yes, Hataka pulled her close and tilted her chin up, kissing her for a moment before slipping into her mind and easing away any nervous thought, distracting her from the pain by sending her on her "dream vacation". Of course it was an illusion but she made sure it seemed so real, she wouldn't know the difference.

~*~*~

She smirked. "I like it when teachers hit on me. Especially hot ones. Call me a hoe but I, like it!" she said, adding a small purr at the end for emphasis before laughing."Though when girl teachers do it, it's just awkward." she said, flicking a loose strand of blond hair out of her eyes.

[Juneberry]

Flutter didn't need the dream vacation the way most did- she just needed her blood taken. The idea of being bitten by a vampire was normal to her- after all, she'd grown up needing such things. The pain from her high blood pressure was much more intimidating then the bite. Still, she did like the visions of plants she got when she was put into one of the vacations. Though, she just wanted the plants in general.

"I hate when anyone does it. Especially my track team captain...Who is in the same grade as me and had nothing better to do, apparently. More teachers come to the bakery to visit me and say hello then he does. In my opinion, if he actually did have interest he'd do something like that to show it, wouldn't he? Then again, I just have no interest in him anyway. While boys are nice and the like, I don't think I'd date most of 'em."

[Tazha_bear]

Hataka took as much blood as she could, than slipped out of her mind an away from her neck, wiping away any trace of blood quickly than nodding. "There you go... And you'll have scars later so you can flaunt being bitten by a famous vampire." she said, than turning away.

~*~*~

Corrine smirked."Hey... as long as it's a good make-out session, I'm all for it... Never really learned commitment growing up to boyfriend, husbands, anything of the sort would be entirely out of the question, besides, I don't like being tied down." she said, shrugging. "sucky situation I guess... Than again guys are pigs. Give them a foot and they take a yard." she said, rolling her eyes.

[Juneberry]

"It isn't really a matter of flaunting. I'd rather just not have to go to the hospital from my blood's natural enjoyment of tormenting me by multiplying far too fast. The only good thing about it is the vampires around me can get a good meal of me. Not exactly fun otherwise..." She sighed. "I'm sorry for asking this of you...The man said that you weren't affected by the toxicity of a vampire's blood if you drank it, so it seemed safer to ask you then someone else. Since I'm half myself, it'd be bad if someone who couldn't handle vampire blood had to drink it, no?"

---

"I'm sorta like a guy in some ways, but also like you in others. I don't like being tied down- after all, I'm a busy body. Tying me down would mean making me stop moving as much as I do. But... I do like to take as much as I can with some things. And I'll admit, I can understand what guys find so attractive in some girls. Even I've had an interest in 'em before. But... I don't wanna date, either. I don't want to get too close to anyone."

[Tazha_bear]

Corrine smiled. "I'm simply playful... I don't know how to be faithful, and besides, flirting anf making out and touching, my personal stress reliever. so if we ever go clubbing and I leave without ya, I'll probably be gone for at least halfway through the night. Besides, they never actually got very far with me. I know how to get 'em, and I'm still a virgin." she said, smirking and examining her nails.

[[ sorry in a rush so can't do both chars ATM][

[Juneberry]

((S'okay, no need to worry.))

"I don't really do much when I go to those places anyway. I mostly go to drink. I get a couple drinks, leave and get back to working at the stove. I'm pretty plain and boring. I have no interest in touching people or anything. I just like to go for the drinks..." She laughed nervously- did that prove her alcoholism was bad? Likely, but it wasn't that she went often anyway.

[Tazha_bear]

Corrine rolled her eyes. "You're no fun. Well, that'll have to change up soon. after all we're only going to be working tuesday through friday. which means no baking on saturday, sunday or Monday." she said.

[Juneberry]

"I spend most my my time when I'm not baking at work to cook at home. I like to practice recipes a lot and find new ways to make them better. My strawberry tarts get better often because I try so much to improve." She smiled a bit, giggling. "I'll never be a perfect cook...But the more I practice, the better I'll be."

[Tazha_bear]

"well, not happening with me around. you're too much of a workaholic and most people like that will never find anyone to spend their life with because you're too busy focusing on stuff that really, in reality, doesn't matter as much." she said, playing with the ends of her hair.

[Juneberry]

"I don't want to find someone to 'spend my life with'. I'm not interested in that sort of thing. I'm happiest when I'm cooking or running. Other things...They don't do much for me."

[Tazha_bear]

Corrine glared, her gaze cold. "Until your friend are married and they bail out on yo and you're all alone. Even baking wears down. Sure, makes me happy but i'd like to have fun, and fun includes friends. ALL of them. So I'll give you one day to 'perfect' your baking. The other two are fun days. Strictly." she said, leaning back. "Besides you wouldn't need to if you used your nose and tasted the stuff as you went along." she said.

[Juneberry]

((This is a strange way for her to react, but she is emotional right now so it makes sense I think...For her to snap. xD))

"I do use my nose and taste it. But it won't make it perfect. And cooking is fun, to me. And so is running. So you shouldn't just assume I use those days for work." She glared as well, shakng her head. "Maybe I should just decline your offer. You don't seem to understand. I had friends. Friends who made me happy. I had fun with them...Until I needed someone to talk to. When I needed to talk, they pushed me away. And you know what? That made me realize they weren't my friends. So I decided I don't need that. I'll talk to people...But I don't make friends anymore. Because anyone who ever claimed to care besides Richard, who acted as my father when I had no one... Anyone else just threw me aside as soon as I needed help, no matter how many times I tried to help them."

She got up, waving. "I'll think about the job offer, but don't try to take charge of my life. What I do the other three days is my choice. You don't like it...Don't give me the job. My idiot brother is waving me over, so I gotta go."

[Tazha_bear]

She rolled her eyes. "no, I can see why you lose people so well. You're not grateful to have others. And you should try to be less of a strawberry shortcake drama queen. And I'm sure Richard would want you to at least have more fun. besides, no one wants a future butterball working with them anyways, especially when all they think about is tarts. honestly working with you would be like working with the red queen. you have a big enough head an mouth for it so, go on ahead, chase people off. But don't come crying when you really need someone." She said, her voice calm and smooth, but was razor sharp.

Standing she left, she seemed to turn into thin air in the crowd of people.

[Juneberry]

Her brother was surprised when she didn't storm past him, but rather stayed a slight distance behind him- normally, she wanted to be farther ahead than farther behind. "Okay, something's up." He grumbled, irritated. He'd seen what happened from afar, but knew that both sides had a point- and, of course, he hadn't helped his sister's. Shawn let out a sigh as he walked ahead. "You know...Just because no one thus far has been helpful doesn't mean no one will ever be helpful," He noted.

"Like you should talk," Chloe retorted. "All you ever did was go to school and never listen when something happened to mom. You never cared."

"I'll admit that. I'll admit I didn't listen when you guys needed help. But it's not like it mattered, since you were able to do it on your own anyway."

"You make it sound like I wanted that." She responded coldly. The two were quiet afterward, in a car with their aunt, who helped talk them both down. She reminded Chloe that the future wasn't going to be the same as the past, and reminded Shawn that it was his own stupidity to assume his sister could handle it just because he wanted to be lazy. Somehow, the two siblings decided they'd go drinking together that night- even though it was strange that Shawn would agree, considering he wasn't much of a drinker, and his sister was underage.

((A new place to meet, y'know? xD))

[Tazha_bear]

[[ lol. yeppers!]]

Corrine went to her new adoptive family, greeting them formally before she walked with them to the car. "I hope my earnings have paid for it..." she said, her brow creased slightly in concern.

"Yes. It was confirmed by the agents... you've bought the place plus the bakery below. We can start picking furniture if you'd like..." they offered.

Corrine smiled thankfully. these were her favorite guardians. They understood her. they paid for both her college degrees in both cooking, and psychiatric training. not only did she want to work in a bakery, but she had a license and wanted to help people, give them advice and make them feel better.

"No, I think I'm going to celebrate tonight. I'll be home around one or two... maybe later. I'll be home though." she said, her french accent carrying on to them silently.

she got out when they dropped her off at the penthouse. yes, it was on the very top floor but she had an elevator, and her stuff was delivered earlier.

Quickly going to the top floor she went to what was to be her room, and she quickly put on a black sequence mini dress, black Boots and a Jean crop jacket.

She put on some dark lipstick and a little shimmer evening make up than headed out to a club/bar. The only one close to her penthouse and went inside, instanty swaying to the music as soon as she walked in, easily blending in except for her goddess-like appearance.
