It started in California.

The elders would say it started in New York, or New Orleans, or even Chicago. Cities steeped in tradition and lore. The historians might even trace it back to Eastern Europe, or the jungles of Haiti. The places where traditions begin.

But this? This started in California. Specifically, it started in San Francisco, home to transients and romantics, most vibrant at night, where no one will look twice at anyone else, no matter how lurid or outlandish. It spread through the underworld and spilled up into the bars and clubs, places packed with beautiful people looking for the next fun thing.

It's so easy to disappear in San Francisco. Easier than you think.

I keep trying to pick a favorite part, but it's really just all of it.

Do you know what this is going to be? Will there be more? (nudge nudge)

Ayup. I was thinking of how easy vamps would have it here, and how the cultural influences would differ in the West vs. the East, and the bunny just keeps hopping.

Yeah, I like it. Let me know when you have more, I'd love to hear about it.
