[John waits at the edges of the group, casually leaning against a wall, looking for all intents and purposes like he doesn't care. He's practically projecting an aura of I-don't-care-about-anything-and-I'm-just-so-chill, like he just wandered over here for something to do.
It's all a ruse of course, because under the careless attitude is a very sharp mind, discerning and tense, being very careful as to who he would choose to take on. It's part of his defense, part of an outer shell that he cultivates.
A mask, if you will, of the personality.
Of course, this means he's quite friendly and easy-going on the outside, and he greets anyone who comes near enough to say hi, vampire or human alike.]
Doing okay?
II. Autumn Nox:
[Sheppard tries very hard to project himself being a cool dude who just happened to be a teacher, who wouldn't be caught dead doing scholarly things. Except he is a scholar and adores mathematics, and might be seen stumbling out of one of the absolute most boring lectures on some sort of branch of vampire mathematics that would put even the most alert, energetic person to sleep in three seconds. He's holding a stack of books and papers, his notes, and blinks owlishly at the person he nearly runs into as some of his things fall to the floor.]
Uh. That--I was just...
It's a good place to take a nap.
[Says the vampire quickly picking up dozens of fresh notes on the ground.]
