[Since Vampire probably isnt yet used to having a diurnal schedule, it's probably safe to assume he's asleep. Whether in Sparkling's bed or flopped over the couch doesn't matter, because Sparkling has been out all morning. It's his day off, and what with recent events bringing some things to a head...he'd taken every coin he had and brought them with him to finally try summoning Mana.

And, well. It actually worked.]

Vampire! Vampire! Vampire wake up!

[It's probably nothing short of alarming, the way Sparkling suddenly rushes in and actually takes the former-cookie by one of his shoulders, shaking him enthusiastically in a way that's almost out of character. Almost. But he's just too excited to care about appearances just now, not even bothered by the way his hair has fallen askew out of the usual perfect combover he wears.]

You have to come with me Vampire, quickly!

[It's been...a few days now, since quite a lot of revelations were made on the floor of this very bar. Now, Sparkling understood that talking to Vampire probably wasn't something that needed to wait for a few days, but...he'd needed some time to mentally process everything that had just happened, because it was a lot. Between the conversation with Joshua, and then the one he'd had with Vampire immediately after...well. Vampire had kissed him, and it was an instance that hadn't lasted all that long before the two had to part for more physical reasons than mental. Sparkling distinctly remembers Vampire getting some drinks in him not long after that, so the atmosphere between them was at least prevented from becoming too awkward.

At least...for a short while, anyway. Needless to say, while Sparkling wasn't even trying to avoid his Naga roommate in the slightest, their paths not crossing simply happened naturally as Sparkling fell like a whirlwind into his work, busying himself with restocking the bar and handling the larger influx of visitors due to the sudden uptick in the Pooka population. Vampire remained a mainstay in the bar, of course, but keen-eyed individuals might notice the two not making eye-contact for much longer than a few seconds at a time.

It's obvious, and it's becoming a problem. So...Sparkling decides it's finally time to confront his own feelings whether he likes it or not as he pokes his head into the den of his apartment where Vampire was currently sprawled in his coils across the couch, sleeping off the prior day's round of booze. Normally he'd catch Vampire actually in his bedroom, just sleeping wherever he landed and not caring too much about it...but it was a little more obvious now that he wasn't choosing to go there specifically right now, perhaps unconsciously sensing the same awkwardness that Sparkling had been.

With his heart nervously fluttering in his chest, Sparkling pads into the room as he shuts the bedroom door behind him. It's early morning, but it's a day off for the bar.]

...Vampire? Are you awake?
