After a few nights since the eventful night of horrible toys, Aladriel had fully recovered from many hangovers and was out today, but for many reasons. Due to the nature of the world of music and its developments with a new idol group being formed, she wanted to learn more about them. She knew the head of the group was the barmaid from Heaven's Gate. A good potential leader for a music group, definitely has the skill. Vesper would definitely be a good fit with her too, and if need be Aladriel would try to join as well. She was set on her own as of now, but there was the possibility at the end of the day. Finishing up with her chores for the day, she climbed into the drivers seat of her car and pondered for a moment. Where could she take them today... it was around 11:30 in the morning, almost time for lunch. Gazing around the places near her car, she spotted quite a beautiful burger place that actually allowed faunus. Even if she could bypass that with a simple hat like normal, Vesper... could not.
That was settled, she gave a quick text to the Dubonnet scroll with the message "Vesper, can you be ready in ten minutes with Hinata? I'm taking you two out for lunch, love you <3, give my regards to your mater!" Turning the key in the ignition, she took off down towards the bar in question. Taking a demo CD of some of her newer work, she popped it into the radio and started blasting the music, singing along to it as she drove, beginning to cross from Wind to Ground. It took just over 10 minutes in total to arrive at the bar as she pulled up beside it and climbed out, locking it and entering into the bar.
Inside, it wasn't too busy considering it was before noon, despite the few alcoholics on a day off. She approached the bar, seeing Hinata and gave her a big smile. "Morning my beautiful Hinata, has Vesper said anything yet? If not, you're coming with me for lunch. My treat!" She spun her keys on her finger, taking a quick seat at the bar as she spoke. "Wanna talk about your new little group you have going, see if you're enjoying it and having a good time, can't have you not having a good time right?" Words: 406/406

It was going to be a slow weekday, which wasn't too surprising to the brunette. It was around this time that Hinata took advantage of the quiet to clean up anything that Vesper may have missed and to setup the more common alcohols for the patrons. A few stragglers wandered in to drink way earlier than should be advisable, but she wasn't judging. As long as they paid and kept to themselves, then Hinata would serve them whenever they pleased!
Her mind was wandering today, however, at the prospect of the band. It was alot to take in and there was so much to contemplate that her head was borderline spinning! But the few patrons who came in would notice the great big beaming grin that was stupidly plastered on her face. She couldn't help but be in a good mood! The girl flipped a mug up and stuffed a rag inside to give it a polish excitedly.
Although, she did have the astronomically difficult task of finding other like minded talents to join her in assembling this group of hers. Where would she even begin? Kimmie was somewhat on board with it, but that was far too tentative to solidly accept. So then...
Hinata blinked as she heard a familiar voice call her name. When she looked up from her cleaning task, Hinata was staring into the ruby gaze of Ms. Aly. The woman was a regular at Heaven's Gate who spent a great deal of time with Vesper's momma and she was always very pleasant to talk to! She was always ready with a nice story and the general atmosphere that Aly exuded made Hinata perk up every time the alabaster haired lady strutted in.
"Oh, why good day to you as well Ms. Aladriel! It is nice to see your cheery face so early in the morning, but nope. I have not seen Vesper yet...honestly I would not be surprised if she is still sleeping."
Hinata giggled in a chipper fashion, setting the mug down under the bar and clapping her hands together. The sudden invitation to lunch came seemingly out of nowhere, but she was also never one to turn down free food!
"That sounds absolutely wonderful! Thank you ever so much! Yes indeed, you are well informed...though I am having some trouble with getting things off of the ground, so to speak. Hm...Ms. Aladriel, you are smart and knowing of things, yes? Maybe I can ask you some tips and questions when we go out?"
Turning her head sharply, Hinata pressed her open hand near her mouth and let out a sharp shout.
"Vesper! Come down here! Ms. Aly wants to see us!"

Vesper was a multifaceted girl with multifaceted talents.
She could discern around 30 different kinds of fruits by taste alone.
She could carry a tune adequate enough that you wouldn't boo her off stage.
She had a fashion sense that could be described as 'Teen schoolgirl goth chic'.
One of the very few things that Vesper wasn't in adequate control of, however, was her sleeping schedule. She blamed it one three factors presented now in an easy to read format for everyone's convenience!
1. Her mom former employment. When your mom is a famous night singer who worked during the nights, you start to live more and more in that same rhythm. You don't want to sleep when she is awake and working, and you don't want to be awake for no reason when she was sleeping.
2. Her bat-intuition. Despite what some people might say, Vesper believed that whatever part of her that was 'batty' influenced her natural rhythm. She felt more in tune with being awake at night and sleeping during the day even now she was living in Mistral. Just like how she liked to snack on fruit and was always great at hanging upside down on monkey bars.
3. Her semblance. When you cannot turn of intuitively sense everything around you, you will get scared by everything and anyone if they enter your room. Vesper never slept with her window open, didn't allowed her mom into her room after a certain hour, and had everything laying neatly and orderly that nothing would move or fall down. Still, sometimes shit happened and she would wake up because of it.
Solid list, right?
On this particular morning she hadn't slept all night because she had been playing a video game on her scroll. Boom, curve ball. Selfish indulgence and poor lifestyle choices can ruin one's day just as well! It was a dump game for good measure. Those, line up 5 gemstones and get a price games. Not even a gacha game, like a cool kid. Though she didn't needed to connect gemstone to win... but fruit. Vesper felt a connection with the game because of that fact. Also, it was free.
Still laying in her bed, the snoozing bat wouldn't for the life of her have heard Hinata shouting from downstairs. It was Vesper's mom who heard it and shouted downstairs. "She will be coming in a minute! Tell Aly I said hello!" It was her day-off, and the productive mom had been cleaning the apartment already. She opened Vesper's room door abruptly, honestly having expected to see her daughter up already.
That wasn't the case and the sudden and quick motion made the bat almost jump out of her bed and give a yelp. "What!" She shouted at her mom, throwing a pillow in her direction. Vesper had a about a dozen on her bed. Mom caught the pillow and walked over with it to her daughter, giving her a bop with it on her head. "Your friends are here. Get dressed."
"Ugh, fine!" Said with the pretentious tone only a teen without a job and still living at home could provide. Quickly throwing on a simple dark purple dress, she quickly made a quick pit stop in the bathroom before she headed out the window.
Stairs sucked and were slow. Quickly fluttering down, Vesper landed near the entrance of the bar, walking in through the front. She looked like she had just fallen out of bed. Her hair was still messy, her eyes weren't really clear, and she was wearing slippers. Clearly she had missed that today was lunch day and also hadn't checked her scroll that was still laying upstairs. "Sup. What is happening Momma Moo?" She could say, before letting out a cute enough yawn. Seeming to be too sleepy to remember her own rule of not calling Aly that in public.

The radiance of the bar was wonderful, it was nice and calm, peaceful and... homely. She knew exactly why it was homely but she couldn't out right and say it. Not yet anyway, maybe when the fates smile on her. Right now, Hinata was a good source of joy. Her smile kept true as Hinata answered her question, and she gave a light chuckle and a shake of her head. "Vesper? Sleeping? Neveerrrrr." She knew her lover's daughters sleeping habits. After all, it was true nature of a bat anyway, more nocturnal than anything. Aladriel knew of a few possible reasons for why she might not be up yet, but she just chuckled again at her thoughts. Probably playing games knowing her.
She heard the radiant voice of Camilla from out back and her smile melted into a lovestruck one, before she recomposed herself again. "Too busy to even grace us with your presense I see!" She shouted back, laughing lightly. "Anyway Hinny dear, how's the bar holding? Any event nights planned soon? That weird Christmassy night where those weird ol' toys attack was a good night in all once everything calmed down and the bar got into full swing, I'd like to head another night like that. Maybe we could duet this time~" She gave a sly wink before she pulled a bottle out from her bag and took a large drain from it, emptying half of the bottle before putting it away.
Her ears perked up and her head turned as someone came through the front door, being Vesper in basically her pyjamas. She leant in close to Hinata and mumbled "Wow you were actually right." before she greeted Vesper with a full smile and open arms. "Vesper! Did you forget what it was today? We're going for lunch, and Hinata is tagging along. I did text you but I have a feeling you stayed up all night. Of course you'd need to change, unless wearing PJs is how you're gunna go out. That's fine by me!" She would hug her tight for a second before releasing her and letting her sit next to her. "Good to see the nickname is taking hold outside of the home, you lil cutie~" She would boop Vesper's nose before looking back to Hinata and between them.
"So I was thinking burgers today, I saw a really nice looking joint on the way down and thought it would be perfect. How's that sound?" Hinata TsuryaVesper Dubonnet Words: 411/817

She leaned against the bar slowly, elbows resting on the surface as the girl plopped her chin on her palms in a very apathetic manner. Her sister lazily meandered in through the front, most likely tossed out of bed. Considering the time of day, she probably would still be asleep otherwise. It wasn't that Vesper was lazy or anything, though, so Hinata wasn't upset with her. Being a bat faunus was just who she was and it honestly helped Hina greatly to have a nocturnal sister to help out around the place!
"Good morning to you, dearest sister! I would get you some juice, but Miss Aladriel here is polite enough to treat us to a meal! Is that not the superest of excitement!?"
Hina beamed happily at both of the ladies before her and giggled as Aly mumbled into her ear. Thoughts of that strange holiday night were swirling around in her head and it made her think of her dream. She sang that night to calm the crowd, but at the cost of paying little attention to any of her friends and family. The place got utterly wrecked, but she found a potential candidate in that pink haired girl Kimmie.
"Oh! Well, you are free to join me during my weekend performances? I would very much like to see how well you work a crowd and perhaps take notes!"
Typically bringing in personal alcohol was off limits and huge no no, but Aladriel was a special case. She knew Vesper in a way that Hinata did not and the silk haired diva was always a delight when she walked in, so the brunette let it slide. After studying the two girls hug it out, Hina tapped her finger to her cheek and gave a click of her tongue.
"I have not had a cheeseburger in oh so long! That sounds quite the delight, ma'am! Let me freshen up as Vessie gets changed and I will let momma know to manage the place while we hit the town!"
Her smile was bright and full of joy as Hinata twirled around giddily, letting her skirt flourish about her thin legs. She pranced away to the backroom to speak with her mom and would go about fixing her hair before rejoining Aladriel and Vesper whenever the other two girls were all ready to go.

The bat's bat ears twitched... bat-like... at the sound of Aladriel's voice being just a little bit too cheerful for 11:30. 11:30 was basically in the middle of the night in the mind of Vesper...or... the middle of the day? Whatever was the time that someone should be asleep! Vesper merely walked up to Aladriel's open arms and pressed her body against hers with the simple requests.
"Hugs first..."
While not the same as morning coffee, morning hugs were as close to a wake-up Vesper needed as she allowed Momma Moo to smother her for a moment. After her morning hug, Vesper left the embrace to face her dearest sister with a mixture on her face that screamed 'Why do I have to be up right now and why does it feel like I have a hang-over when I haven't even had booze!'
It was a very expressive face to pull. "Meal yes... Momma Moo best cow...Sister best sister...One moment..."
The bat walked over towards the back, placing her hand to her mouth, and letting out an eerrily similar shout like Hina's while she was talking with her mom in the backroom. "MOM WE ARE GETTING BORGERS! WE WILL GET YOU AND HIN-MOM SOMETHING TO GO!"
After seeming to have made an executive decision like that, she would make another one and try to pull at Hina's sleeve before she would have a chance to freshen up. "I am not freshening up...come with me. If you look to pretty, I look to bad in comparison." With a lot of insisting pulling, Vesper wanted to get Hinata to come with her to just go out like she was now as the bat seemingly couldn't be bothered to get more properly dressed. Well her clothing itself could be called just passable, it was mostly her hair that she didn't wanted to be bothered with now.
Doing her own hair would mean touching her head, and as she would rather be sleeping now than anything else, she was quite certain that more head touching would get her a headache and at that point she would most likely just give up on the whole burger plan and stay in her room all day.
The bat walked out of the backroom again, not even having received some form of acknowledgement of her mom. She just walked over towards Aly again. Hopefully with Hinata either with her already, or not taking so damn long. Still looking sleepy, the bat gave a long yawn before she tried to make smalltalk.
"Thank for taking us out... Was there an occasion or are you just that great? Also...is it weird for you to eat cow? I think we once talked about it...but I also believed you were drunk or on something so I don't really know if you still believe that now."
She casually scratched her cheek for a moment, seeming to still not be fully awake yet with how blunt she was being.
"Mom also has some clothing and stuff that belongs to you...You can get it whenever...that or we need to find a spot to lay it all. We have limited storage space, you know..."
Someone place put some food in this girl before she continues!

Vesper was definitely going out in her PJ's, and Hinata wasn't going to get time to "freshen" up as she put it. She looked perfect as it was, so there was no need in her mind. "Come then girls, my car is out front." She gestured to the door and led the way, slipping her bottle back into her bag. Outside they would be a beautiful purple muscle car, Aladriel's pride and joy. It had everything she ever wanted, needed and desired. She really should take Midnight out for a spin in it later. But now, she was taking the girls out for a meal. Opening the car doors for them, she would then make her way to the driver's side and plop herself into the seat, slipping on her sunglasses and checking the mirrors to make sure she was good. "Buckle up cuties!" Aladriel would announce and she pulled onto the road and began her drive to the burger joint she saw.
As they drove, Vesper happened to announce some things that she definitely should sort out, being the clothes and items at theirs. "I don't have too much at yours right? If I do I'll clear most of it out tonight. Sorrryyyyy." She gave a goofy smile in the rearview mirror for Vesper to see as she turned onto the bridge between Wind and Ground, heading up. The cow eating comment was still a weird one. She had a realization during one of her drunken highs that she could technically be classed as a cannibal, being a cow faunus and eating cow products. "Oh Vesper, you know I was completely off my mind that night. I don't find it weird at all. Burgers are tasty, delicious and amazing, like me!"
Taking a few more turns, she addressed the idea of Hinata taking notes on her performance and she gave a nod. "Sounds like a wonderful Hinny, and I might take the spotlight if I join the weekend performances~" She jabbed Hinata with her elbow lightly as she made her jest and laughed lightly, shortly before they arrived at the burger place in question, called Chazz Cheese's. "Right, we're here! What are we getting Camilla and your mater Hinata? I forgot to take their orders." She spoke up with a light chuckle as she climbed out of the car. "I completely forgot in the moment, if not I can call them up." Vesper DubonnetHinata Tsurya Words: 403/1220
