The energy of the room got a bit more tense and awkward as Lilith entered the dining room. Victor winced, clearing his throat awkwardly, unable to handle the atmosphere. He stayed quiet throughout their interactions. A few fellow coven members began dripping through the entrance and settling in the dining room. Victor gave them all a glance and a nod if their eyes had met.

[i]Carlisle Aston[/i], the current 'acting' leader of the Coven. From the years Victor has known him he knows that Carlisle's heart is in the right place. His family situation reminded Victor very much of his own, except that he atleast cut off pretty much all contact from them. Victor believes a bit of confidence would do the guy some good. At the very least Carlisle would get what meager support Victor could offer. He did like him and the Coven after all. [color=EEBC1D]“He's stronger than he knows.”[/color]

[i]Lilith Montgomery[/i], her family is one of the big three in Tanner. Victor honestly was surprised at how close the two had gotten between high-school and when had he left for college. Lilith was well known in Tanner for being aloof and standoffish. He put no stock into rumours but it appeared that rumours do stem from a kernel of truth. They both felt comfortable enough to hang out with barely a word between the two; at times they even dived into each other's personal lives. In his words, [color=EEBC1D]“She's a good egg.”[/color]

[i]Aurora Newman.[/i] From first impressions she seems to be a good person. Exuding more experience than the others with maturity to boot. While he may not know her much, she seemed to be a dependable sort, protective even. Her honesty is much appreciated, Victor himself dislikes dancing around issues that seeps into long-running hatred.

Carlisle had left to answer the door. He had returned with Catherine who politely rang the doorbell. A grin formed on his place. [i]Cathrine Heirich.[/i] She-

Victor's impression was interrupted by his phone buzzing in his pocket. A look of anger flashed on his face for a moment as he recognized the unsaved number calling.

[color=EEBC1D]“Gotta take this call, excuse me.”[/color] Victor said apologetically, getting up to go to an empty room. He didn't want to bother the other Coven members with his own family issues.

[color=EEBC1D]“... Lucien, what do you want?”[/color] Victor said in an uncharacteristically irate.

“Well I missed you too, brother.” Victor could practically see the douchey smirk on his cousin's face.

[color=EEBC1D]“Cut the crap,”[/color] He spat out, venom lacing his words. [color=EEBC1D]“I'm ending this call if you don't tell me what you want in the next few seconds.”[/color]

“Now, now, don't be like that. We're close, aren't we?” Lucien replied, “This is a courtesy call regarding your dearest mum and dad, they may be away than they've told you, Vic.”

[b][color=EEBC1D]“What!?”[/color][/b] His parents hadn't told him. [color=EEBC1D]“You fuc-”[/color] He slammed his fist into the wall and took a breath. [color=EEBC1D]“... You Crowe's hurt a hair on their bodies, I'll come back there and we'll have a repeat of what happened a few years ago, you hear me?”[/color]

Lucien took a few seconds to reply, Victor derived a bit of satisfaction knowing that he had peeved off Lucien. 
“Yes now we wouldn't want that, would we?” came the voice from the phone before abruptly dropping.

Victor calmed himself down a bit more before rejoining his fellow Coven members. He returned right before Carlisle had given his speech. Carlisle addressed the stranger that Kolby had brought with him. Victor gave her a curious glance before focusing on the speech. It was worrying that the barrier seemed to be weakening. 

Victor lazily half-raised his hand up, [color=EEBC1D]“I'll help, Carlisle. Gotta take my mind off a few things anyway.”[/color]
