THE GLAMOROUS STILETTO HOUSE!
The Stiletto House had become synonymous with darkness-tinged movie star glamour in Harlan, though the A-list mostly passed it over in recent decades. It had a curious combination of cozy old-time architecture and modern stainless steel decor, with highly polished dark wood above and below the all areas outside the main dance floor. A knife motif sculpture stood on random surfaces throughout.
As good as his knowledge of film was, the fire was throwing August off and he couldn't connect names to the several familiar faces he'd seen on his way in. Still, damn this felt classy. Santi had rode shotgun half the way there in case of uncle attacks, but turned into a pigeon and flew out the window before he arrived. He came in alone after name dropping Wilhelm for the invite, and now he was in a lovely dark wood private room on the second floor, overlooking one of the dance floors. Wilhelm and Cameron were the only people present. Cameron- "HEYOooo! Wassup?"

August was pretty star struck by his surrounds. He'd always wanted to visit this place but the expensive drinks and exclusive guest list had deterred him even in his most ambitious mood. He was finally here though and it was dead classy. He wished he'd dressed up for the occasion. The fiery nature of mortals was a downer, he could have been scouting for his next film. Still his ma always said to count your grapes and spit out the pips. It was bombaroo and he was in a private room. Couldn't get any better. "Hey y'all! Isn't this just bombaroo? I'm chuffed as a squirrel! It's a darn shame we can't drink ...err stuff, Am I right? Oh I swear one of the bonfires had the silhouette of Dame Gerdy. I'm bombaroo... I've kept me nose clean, clean as a whistle. Yeah. How are y'all tonight?

Wilhelm looked a bit disappointed for a moment, but slipped back into a more neutral expression easily. Cameron also had a random array of emotions flicker across his features and sink away into a tentative "fuckit" kind of smile. Cameron- "Alright man, alright."
Wilhelm- "I would haff expected more interest in guiding zhe course of the film, but oh well. I am told perhaps Chloë and Jack will come later tonight. And if the proceedings are ill-fated, perhaps we can find some other diversion to fill our hours."
Cameron- "Yeah, I don't know about script-writing. But I'll try anything once."
Wilhelm- "That is zhe spirit."
Cameron spun a chair around with his foot and scooted it toward August.

August took the chair and sat himself down suddenly feeling a little tense. He didn't want to disappoint anyone.
"I take this film very seriously, Wilhelm. I was just admiring the atmosphere ya know? If this is gonna be last film with my real name on it, then I want it to be special. " " So I'm ready to roll my hambalos! Where do ya wanna start?"

Wilhelm was pleased... ((Insert montage here. I'd like to get Kelly's input on this because he was so hilarious cold lampin' that one night. Follow this post with one of your own, to which you can edit in responses when he comes available again. Presently, he just got to sleep.)) Cameron- "Placeholda?"
Wilhelm- "Placeholda."

"Placeholder..." ((No worries. Yeah, he was a scripting genius of hilarity. ))

((Moving right along footloose and fancy free,))
August and Cameron had both parked in the same public garage nearby, and headed over to it shortly after midnight. Cameron- "That was a productive session."
They didn't discuss it, but they seemed to be headed to Cameron's car first, on the first floor.

"Yeah, Wilhelm is a bona fide wordsmith. I wish I was that classy. I can't believe I'm working with one of the greats. " "I'm glad you're around Cam. This whole vampire thing is weirder than a donkey's head on an emu, but at least I've got my friends. I dunno if I still have a heart but I love y'all anyways..."
August looked away for a moment, unsure whether to burden his best friend with his problem, dude seemed to have enough of his own worries.

Cameron paused for a moment. Cameron- "I think it's safe to say we're all the same guys we were before, just deader. Like Ru, that guy is so gentle I worry about his ass. What's up?"
He'll look at the back of August's head without an alternative.

As enthralling as the back of his curly hair was, August turned to face his friend. "His ass is fine, Babs takes care of it." August paused dramatically before answering Cameron's question."I've done something stupid, Cam. Real stupid. I got to thinking about what I've left behind and stupid lame Lloyd French. Then I decided to call him up, ya know give him a fright. So maybe he decides to take his rightful place in advertising. Anyways it started ringing, so I panicked and left a message. Now I'm freaking out, probably he'll think it's a prank yeah? What if he doesn't? What are the older vamps gonna think? Do ya reckon they'll punish me... I'm like a bug in a bat cave."

Cameron- "What? Oh man... That's bad, man. That's bad. Uh... We oughtta.... We oughtta find out if..."
Cameron- "OK, calming down, man, OK, here's the deal. If Lloyd is freaked, he'll look freaked, right? We go spy on him and see if he's acting weird, maybe? Or if he's out, break into his shit and see if he left a trail. Like, on his PC, no one ever logs out. Maybe his LookMail is still open and we can see if he sent any messages that way."

"Yeeeah..." "Yeah! Thanks, Cam. I thought no one would help me. Let's do it!" "Maybe we could even give him an embarrassing social link status while we're at it."

Cameron- "..."
Cameron- "Why not? C'mon, check out my ride."
He led August a short way to a deep green classic roadster, older than August's classy antique machine by a few decades. Cameron- "It's crap on hills, so maybe you can follow me so I don't lose ya. Which building was his dorm in?"

"Nice wheels! Bombaroo! Man, these vamps know a darn nice car when they see one. Man, poor Santi..." "I think he's in the Harry Blanketh building, ya know.. the big old one across from mine. It's got the fancy elevators. I''ll catch ya there. Toodalo kangaroo." August headed to his own snazzy car, excited and slightly nervous. There was no Santi to wipe memories this time. Luckily his beanie was still laying on the back seat, at least he'd be a little disguised.

Before he took off, Cam insisted they meet up at a certain spot, in case they couldn't park close together. August found a shady spot to park in and waited several minutes for Cameron in the one of the campus laundromats near the building. A cute fireball looked nervous about him, with his non-laundering ways, but generally kept on about her business and returned his glance with a shy smile. Cameron strolled in. Cameron- "Hey man. Ma'am."
Ma'am- "...good evenin..."
