((Charlie is such a dork...=D))
Charlie felt her knees buckle at his touch, her heart beat furiously in her chest. She smiled sheepishly as she noted his formal tone. "It's quite a nice place you have here..." she said, standing on her tip-toes to look around She couldn't help the bright blush that scorched her cheeks as she tried to look past him, but failing to do so. "Uhm, Izz..." Charlie said, nudging her cousin, "Maybe we'd better ask to go. It's much nicer..." She began to get angry with herself. She was never like this. Most of the time she would do what she wanted, but when she got with her friends she would try and be responsible. It annoyed her when she did it, but it wasn't something she could control. The words just blurted out uncontrolably. She took a long drawl on her cigarette and puffed the smoke out, feeling her nerves kick up at the serge of nicotine. She took another short drawl, holding in the smoke and blowing it out her nose. She smiled at Akina, apologizing for her bad habit.

Akina responded to Charlie's silent apology with a diluted glare, clearly to weary to show that much displeasure. With a heavy sigh, she laid her head on Izzy's shoulder. The girl was simply to curious for THEIR own good.
~*~
Ember sensed the girl's pulse quicken so suddenly that he took a small step away, his orange eyes igninting with shock. He blinked several times, his gaze never shifting from the girl who soon looked away to adress her relative. The break of eye contact did little to soothe his nerves, but he did manage to partially collect himself.
A cool smile returned to his genuine and pleasant features as he drifted away, only partially still attentive to their conversation. His mind was actually heading toward his brother.
I wonder, he thought to himself while hoping Simon would hear, how would you feel about a little bit of company upstairs already?

Simon waited, sighing, gaze wandering the thousands of books. He jumped as Ember's mind wriggled into his. Any day now. He responded. ... But don't feel rushed. He added. He stretched briefly, then leaning against the railing, dark eyes staring at the door boredly.

He shook his head, fighting the chuckle that crept up as he received Simon's response. Ember sighed, staring hard at the small, curious female that so wanted to head upstairs. Hopefully, the small form would turn out to be a satisfying meal for his brother.
"If you feel truly comfortable going upstairs on your own, go right ahead. We'll join you in a little while." He said, turning his eyes pointedly on Akina as he finished. He laid a hand on her shoulder, a silent but firm warning not to argue with his statement.
The girl nearly snarled at him, staring up into his eyes with fercoity that few of her stature could back up with action. Her angry gaze flickered back and forth from him to Izzy. Her friend seemed eager to go on her own, and as she went to protest that decision, she found herself oddly forgeting a reason to do so.
Ember, noticing her difficulty, smiled. Apparently, he hadn't lost his distracting touch.

((Joining in as the third brother. For the lulz.))
Name: Ville Gender/Species: Male/Vampire Age: Seventeen Appearance: Messy brown hair that falls in the standard emo swoop over his left eye though it hardly covers it. His eyes are golden and sit above high cheek bones and below perfectly arched brows. Pale, thin, and stands at about 5'10'' on a good day. He wears whatever he likes, which usually consists of a black jacket with a red and black checkered pattern on the inside of his hood and random white dots lining each side of the zipper. Usually wears dark jeans and worn out looking checkered Vans. Other: Ville is veeeery laid back. Nothing really bothers him too much. True story. He also is uber fast. Like, twice as fast as the usual vampire speed. And, he has this nifty trick where he can make himself invisible to the point where not even his own brothers can sense him. ~~~~ Izzy stared up at Ember for a few moments, wondering if he was serious or not, before shifting to get a glance at her friends. She blinked at them before a bright smile painted itself across her small, soft features.
"If that's all right.." she nodded. "I'll go. See you kids!" she gave a small wave before starting up the stairs. She peeked down a hallway before darting into it and disappearing from the sight of the three down below all together. She moved slowly and deliberately, determined to look at everything (though she didn't open any doors) that caught her interest. And there were many things that caught her eye. Lost in her musings, she barely even noticed the approaching figure until she nearly bumped into him
"Hello!" she greeted with a small laugh. He gave a nod and an easy smile.
"I'd go in here," he suggested, knocking on the library door lightly. "It's quite interesting, especially if you like books.." his voice was husky and warm, as if he had just woken up. She nodded at his suggestion before watching him pass, eyeing him curiously as he did so. Another inhabitant of the house, perhaps..? She envied the jacket he wore but did not voice such a thing aloud. Once she was sure he was gone, she shuffled up to the door and opened it slowly, listening as the hinges creaked in protest. She held the door carefully with both hands, peeking inside at the marvelous library, eyes full of wonder.
If I go in here.. I'm going to get lost and then something is going to eat me...! Or, maybe I’ll end up in Narnia! she thought to herself, repressing a small giggle before she slipped inside, shutting the door carefully behind her. She stared around for a moment, unsure of where to go or even what to do. It seemed there were more floors here than she would have figured... After a moments consideration, she shuffled off into the maze of bookshelves, a tiny finger trailing along the dusty bookshelves as she did so.
She was better at puzzles than most people figured.. In fact, they amused her in a way and she was rather good at solving them.
~~~~
Ville stretched after he had passed the girl named Izzy, her maddening sweet scent seeming to trail along after her. He wrinkled his nose against it, smiling wryly as he scratched at the back of his head, mussing his hair gently. He hoped, for the girls sake, that she didn't get lost in the library.. He felt sorry, in a way, for the humans that stumbled upon this mansion but another part of him didn't really care either way… He frowned at himself, disliking that part of him that was so cold and uncaring towards other beings other than he and his brothers..
He paused at the stairwell, leaning over the banister casually and looking down at the remaining two guests and his brother.
"Sorry I'm late," he called casually, golden eyes glinting with laughter. They were all Asian, he noted. And very tiny. How strange..

Charlie's eyes widened as she took in the new form on the second floor. Was there no end to these beautiful men? She couldn't help but feel selfconcious. She always did when she met a boy or girl she thught was pretty. She smoothed her hair and cleared her voice. "Uhm,. I'm just going to go find Izzy." She said walking up the stairs, "We, uhm, need to talk about, heh, cousinly matters." Charlie stopped short, looking over at the newest man to enter the room. She took in his tall, yet not as tall as the other, stature and blinked, dazed. She looked at the cigarette in her hand and gave a sheepish smile. She rubbed her index finger along her lips, a motion she did to make sure nothing was on her face. She should probably ask first. "Uhm, is it ok?" she ask, reaching her hand up and taking a long drawl

He perked, hearing one of the girls head up the stairs. At first he didn't think she'd enter, but Ville then easily persuading her in. .. Thank you... Then tuning in to the girl's thoughts, Simon rolled his eyes. His form melted into shadow, the blackness slithering across the floor a little ways from where he had been waiting. It climbed up the spines of books on a bookshelf, a pale hand extending from the shadow, grabbing a random book, and pulling it out, then melting back into the dark form and letting the book drop. The sound of it hitting the wood of the floor echoed in the enormous library. He'd lure her to the second floor; this one seemed less likely to get lost.

Ember slowly withdrew his hand from Akina, allowing it to drop gently to his side once he saw his brother arrive. An easy smile spread across his pale face as he closed the distance between him and the other male, stopping only at the base of the stairs. "So nice of you to join us... Late as always." He greeted mockingly, his smile revealing pointed canines only to the one he spoke to.
"This is Charlie." He introduced, his voice enticing as he glanced toward the girl who had just asked to venture elsewhere. Hopefully, the gesture would stall her for awhile longer.
~*~
"I'm Akina..." The smaller girl hissed under her breath, taking deliberate steps toward Ember and Ville. She was still a bit dazed, but she knew now that Izzy had gone despite some wish, some strong feeling she'd had... What had kept her from restraining her friend?! She shook her head, a quiet growl building up within her as she turned her sapphire gaze on the new male. Another one that seemed unearthly beautiful.
Something in this place was really quite messed up.
