You don't remember how you arrived here... some kind of... ballroom? You barely get the chance to note how old, almost ancient the style of the room is, but your eyes are drawn, almost fixated to the woman standing before you. Her dress is equally old and elegant. She raises a gloved hand for you to take and, with the slightest of smirks says simply "Care for a drink?"

Happy Halloween, everyone! This year, I want a bit more "on-the-nose" with my picture. Carmen just fits a lot of the ideas so well here that it couldn't really be anyone else I could think of to be portrayed as an elegant vampire in a Victorian-style scene. It's not all that far from the truth, after all ^_~

I really enjoyed working on this one. I hope you all enjoy it as well... and stay safe this spooky season!
