Fantasy Magic Brew Cafè (CLOSED)

Vincent snorted, looking at her in disbelief. "Hope? For a raging, psychopathic bitch who would like nothing more than to see the whole wold burn? You're so optimistic, it's almost hilarious." He joked, letting go of her hand before walking into the kitchen. He returned a short while later with an opened pack of ground beef, "I wanna see if I can still do this," He explained, ripping off a piece of the red meat, and holding it over Chomp's head. The plant twitched, stretching itself towards his hand, and Vincent dropped the piece, snatching his hand away just in time to avoid having it chomped off by the snapping, salivating plant mouth.


"It's a dangerous meat eating plant," Vincent said pointedly, looking up from the thing and at Maria, noting with some interest the new girl sitting next to her, "And I think it's plenty romantic, taking into consideration Ellie's affinity for plants, thank you very much. I mean, look at that," He nodded towards the plant, who had meat mushing it's way out of the sides of it's mouth, staining the pink ribbon around it's head, "And tell me it's not adorable."
 
Maria wrinkled her nose at Chomps, "Yeah, fucking adorable," she deadpanned. "Most girls love diamonds, your's loves man eating plants that could eat a entire cow easily," she laughed, watching as Ellie pouted stroking Chomps head, "You'll get used to Maria soon Chomp, but if she comes at you with a axe i give you full permission to eat her!" Ellie smiled brightly. "Elinor, did you just choose a plant over me?..." Maria said looking at her friend worried. "No...I chose a cute plant over you!" Ellie said brightly.
 
Raya -only now noticing the plant- jumped, yet managed to keep her inquiries to herself. What the hell!?!? She thought, when she heard the dialogue between the stranger in front of her, Ellie and the so called Vincent. She then stared at the plant, noting that it was fat and had teeth. Why is this place so weird? She thought, then looked down at her lap and decided not to think up questions that had no answers.
 
"See! It's even freaking out the new girl!!" Maria yelled, pointing at the stranger. Ellie tilted her head looking at Raya with big blue sad eyes, "Raya...You don't think Chomp's is weird do you?..." she whimpered, looking as tears began welling in her eyes. "You already gave it a name!? Your treating it like it's a freaking puppy!!!" Maria cried growed frustrated.
 
"To be fair," Vincent murmured, frowning a little, "He is sentient, and quite able to think. So he's basically like a leafy puppy, if you think about it." The demon threw more meat into the snapping jaws of the plant, scratching it under it's soft, petal-like chin. "Aren't you?"
 
"Puppys do not grow to be the size of cars, puppys do not have a dangerous poison in them, puppies are not fucking plants Vincent!!"Maria sighed, running a hand through her hair.
 
"Whatever," The demon waved her off, rolling his eyes, "He can be a guard cabbage. Did you know you can actually train these to do that? There was a reason we had them in our garden." He chuckled, "And I'm sure Ellie could do that quite easily, I mean, I've seen you with plants," He smiled at her, patting Chomp on the head with his fingertip.
 
"If it doesn't bite my pinky off I guess Chomps is cute." She said quietly then quirked a brow when the man said guard cabbage, "You can't train it to be a guard cabbage if it's not a cabbage..." she said then awkwardly smiled and looked over at the girl who was across from her, "You swear a lot. Don't scare the leaf puppy, cabbage thing."
 
<p>"Eh? But I don't want him to be a guard cabbage...I want him to be a pet!" Ellie pouted, grabbing a piece of meat and fed Chomps scratching under his head, smiling as he purred up at her. " SO cute~!" she squeaked happily.</p>
 
<p>"Well, guard plant, then," Vincent relented, looking up at the soft-spoken girl. He had a feeling he had seen her before, but he couldn't really place... "You came in here with Ollie and Jun, didn't you? After the attack?" He asked, snapping his fingers, causing the plant to look up curiously, "I don't think I ever managed to catch your name." He reached out a hand, but stopped himself half way when he noticed that it was still filled with pieces of soil and soot. He gave her a sheepish smile and a not instead, "I would shake you hand, but I don't think you would appreciate getting hell dirt on you. Vincent Buckley." </p>

Crap, did he see my collapse? She wondered then shoved the thoughts aside. He was the guy that was sleeping when her and Jun dragged Oliver to a couch, "Yep that's me." She said then stuck out her toung at the plant when it turned and looked at her, "I'm Raya valentine." She said then looked at his hand, wondering if the dirt was actually from hell, "And I'm guessing your Ellie's boyfriend?" She asked then looked over at Ellie with a cheeky grin, "She's notoriously strange when she has a hangover."
 
Ellie blushed, looking away, nervously, " I wasn't....that bad...." she whimpered, pouting slightly, as she avoided eye contact with Raya and Vinny.
 
"You upchucked in greeting, declined the food I -oh so generously- brought you, then retreated to the bathroom the rest of the time!" She exlaimed with a light hearted laugh, "If that isn't strange I don't know what is."
 
"That's pretty normal, Raya." Vincent deadpanned, shaking his head, "You should see what happens when you get a hellhound drunk on pomegranate wine from the underworld. That's pretty unusual, not to mention hilarious." The demon laughed, shooting a grin Ellie's way.
 
Raya's playful mood came to a hault as her brows knitted together in confusion, Hellhound? "Ya hilarious." She said, frowning as her tone came out screaming unsurity, "How did you get wine from the underworld?" She asked, "And Eww, pomegranetes."
 
"By sending in an imp and... You know what, that's not really important," The demon grinned sheepishly, shrugging his shoulders. While he had only mentioned that little hellhound anecdote to make Ellie feel better, the actual events of what had taken place that summer night had been quite... strange. And since creatures, humanoid or not, couldn't exactly leave the underworld once they had consumed something from there, they had been down one hellhound that night. Vincent cringed a little as he remembered back, scratching the plant under it's chin with a small, guilty grin.


"Anyway, enough about my foolish teenage endeavors, whats your story, Raya?"
 
She quirked an eyebrow at his response, then shrugged when he asked about her story, "Parents where killed in a car crash when I was younger so I grew up with my aunt and uncle at the costume store. I hated school and I always had to paint my nails black because of these things." She said then held up her fingers and forced her nails to turn green, then back to yellow. "And ya... pretty boring." She said with a shrug, "I have a feeling a year in any of your lives is more interesting then 5 years in mine." She had considered mentioning the whole powers dilemna but she was pretty sure 'Dork by day, Superman by night' wouldn't fit in the story, "Oh I once started a kitchen fire when I was trying to make chicken nuggets! Most interesting night of my first decade right there" she said with a laugh, if she remembered right, she had tried to put it out with a broom... then set the broom on fire... and woke up her uncle Pops to burning cleaning supplies.
 
"That must have been a lot of fun, though," The demon mused, smiling softly, "Growing up in a costume store. I imagine you were quite the popular one on Halloween?" He joked, looking at her nails with a hint of interest. It reminded him of Akira's mood-ring hair, and he chuckled a little as they flashed between the colors, "Boring lives are the most peaceful, I think," He murmured after a while, "And I totally get you on the cooking thing. I trashed my own kitchen trying to make an egg once, just ask Ellie, she's the one who had to eat the thing."
 
"Ya, My aunt once sent me out in a Kimono, painted my face white then forced on red lipstick. I thought I looked like a freaking ghost she said I looked traditional." Raya said with a scrunched up nose as she remembered the ugly thing. She smiled as she heard she wasn't the only one who couldn't cook, "Oh but it's the best when you set a broom on fire then wake up your guardian at five in the morning. Oh the horror people's faces take when they see there niece waving around flaming brooms." She mused, her power hadn't decided to ruin her life until she was 13 Which was why she stuck to cereal most of the time...
 
"Yeah, or when you manage to explode an egg." Vincent commented with a laugh, imagining her waving around the fiery cleaning supply, shaking his head. He blinked as he felt a tingling behind his eyes, signifying that his eyes were returning to their normal, crimson color, the blackness fading away slowly. He didn't bother mentioning though, "I once got an order for cooked puffin eggs from a customer when Seera, out cook, was out sick. I didn't know how long to cook it for, so I, naturally, just set it to twenty minutes," He snorted.
 
"Why didn't you just look it up! What did that egg ever do to you?" She squealed then laughed, "Just the other day I knocked over a... Gem troll, ya gem troll, I fell and rammed into her then landed on the ground... and so I didn't turn to a pancake -and she didn't hit the ground. I pushed her back up with my legs, she was so confused I just walked away." She said remembering the face the troll made as she somehow regained her balance. It was a funny face the troll made but she hadn't bothered thinking about it until now, nor did she realize how heavy the gem troll was, "I once had a Job at a bakery. The one day that the baker was sick was when it was only me and her on and the shift so basically I was running a whole bakery alone on my fifth day at work. You should have seen the pastries that came out of that kitchen." She cringed at the thought of it.
 
"Gem trolls weigh almost a ton, though!" Vincent exclaimed, a little shocked as his eyebrows rose almost to his hairline. He studied her curiously, "You cannot be be more than fifty kilo's soaking wet, how in the name of Belial did you manage to kick her up without getting mushed?" He asked, his question holding no hostile intentions, aside from curiosity.
 
"Um. Cause I'm really cool?" She said awkwardly, then thought for a second. She'd explained her power enough in the last couple days, once more wouldn't kill her, "I see someone in danger, I protect them... she almost hit the ground so Bing bodda boom. Super man!"
 
"Oh, so kind of like a universal... adrenaline rush." The demon nodded thoughtfully, before shrugging it off with a smile, noting the awkward air that had settled over their conversation. "Eh, whatever, we get so many different types of people here that nothing should really be able to surprise me anymore, but I'm still to curious for my own good sometimes." He said, his tone almost apologetic.
 
"What? Universal adrenaline rush? I don't think so... more like this." She said then picked up a pen sitting on the table and threw it right at his face, and in a split second she held up her hand and her eyes sparked a glow causing the pen to abruptly halt and float right in front of his nose. The pen was going to float until her power decided to run away so she watched as it slowly spun in circles, then reached out and poked one of the sides and it span faster, "My favourite part about doing that, is throwing stuff at people's face."
