Irina and Karen were just leaving work when Kara decided to make an early appearance. They were in the main hall of the bank when she took the glasses off and scoffed, "they don't even correct anything, has she told you that?" she knew that Karen had told Irina about her, but she hadn't been able to meet Karens little trainee yet and she had been dying to! "She just wears them because she likes the way they look and she likes the distinction from me," she rolled her eyes and gently placed the glasses in her bad, the pocket she always left them in for Karen. She stopped and placed a hand on Irinas shoulder, "get ready, because your night starts now." At four o' clock. Irina Rose Krum

Irina knew that her mentor Karen had dual personalities; she had explained it to the best of her ability within her first week of training. At first, the Gryffindor alum wasn’t sure if her mentor had been joking or not; Irina was a pureblooded witch after all and had never made a habit of studying psychology. But, out of curiosity, she had taken a book out of the British Public Library on Personality Disorders to read up on the topic. To her surprise, multiple personalities could co-exist within one person; most of the time there was a ‘host’ personality, which Irina took to mean Karen, with ‘guest’ personalities. One example that had been included was a woman who had over twenty! Karen had assured Irina that Kara, as she called her, was the only other one she had. She found the study fascinating, but as of yet had not met Kara, Karen’s alter ego. They were walking together, leaving after another day of Irina’s training when the girl heard her mentor scoff and take off her glasses. Irina watched with a curious expression on her face as Karen’s entire demeanor changed entirely - so this must be the famous Kara. Karen had mentioned Kara had a bit of a wilder personality, so she was only mildly surprised when the woman placed her hand on Irina’s shoulder and declared that her night started now. “You must be Kara, it’s nice to meet you,” Irina said with a smile. She wondered what sort of shenanigans she would get up to with this other personality, and found herself to be excited to see what would happen. @karen

Irina was calm in her presence, smiling sweetly and saying it was nice to meet her. "Nice! Girl, you have no idea how nice this is for you. Get ready to have a new b.f.f." she said firmly, linking her arm through Irinas and continuing to walk. "You don't have any plans tonight, do you? Cancel them. Whatever boy toy you have to ditch for some one on one Kara time can deal with it," she commanded, "hmm... we will need to change though. Should we stop by your place or do you want to borrow one of mine? I'll warn you, most of mine aren't going to make that boy of yours happy that you're out without him," of course she assumed Irina had a lover boy, I mean look at her. Irina Rose Krum

Irina’s hand automatically went to her neck where the locket Dan had given her lay. Their relationship was….well, Irina really didn’t know if there was a word to currently describe it. Whatever it was, they were taking it slow, and she really wasn’t the type to fool around with other people when her heart was dedicated to someone specific. Still, she had heard plenty about Kara and had to admit she was intrigued by what the woman had planned. “I actually...I still live at home with my parents,” Irina admitted. “I promised my sister I would until September 1st, but it’s in Northern England. Would seem to be a waste of time trying to get there and back again,” she added. She didn’t elaborate that she really had no idea what she needed to wear tonight; her first instinct was that Kara would take her clubbing, and she definitely didn’t have the clothes for that. “I suppose I could wear something of yours? I’ll wash it before I return it to you of course,” Irina suggested, adding in the last bit quickly. She would never return borrowed clothing unwashed - that was disgusting! “What did you have in mind tonight?” she asked with a small smile. She liked Karen, but Kara was an entirely new story, and she was getting a good read off her already. @karen

Irinas hand went to her neck, to a necklace, and Kara grinned. Well, well, well, there was a boy. Irina said she lived at home with her parents and Kara scoffed, but then laughed, realizing that it was good to keep a promise to your sister. She understood that, especially being a younger sister herself. It was in Northern England, so not really worth the apparation since Kara lived so close. "great!' Kara exclaimed, pulling Irina down the street. The could walk, it wasn't that far. She waved her free hand, "don't worry about washing it, I can. We'll probably have to crash at my place tonight anyway - oh, I have a roommate. He won't mind though, but you might cuz he's a booooy," she wiggled her eyebrows, "Brandon Fisher, do you know him? He's your age," she explained, talking very fast. As for what she had in mind... "Bar hopping. Rooftops, to be specific. It's summer! Some have amazing Gardens," she explained, sighing a little. "Culpeper is to die for. DIE FOR IRINA ARE YOU LISTENING IT'S AMAZING."Irina Rose Krum

Irina's blush deepened as Kara knowingly looked at her; Kara seemed to understand there was a boy in the picture, but at this point in time, Irina was not ready to dish about it. Apparently, that may change with the evening according to Kara's description of it. Bar hopping, rooftop bars? Well rooftop bars would be fun, and provide a beautiful view at the very least. She did love to look at the city skyline, illuminated by the setting sun. The Wheel, Big Ben, and even the Gherkin, Irina loved it all. "Sounds good," she agreed, not really knowing what she was getting herself into. She did a double take in surprise when Kara mentioned her roommate. Brandon Fisher, of course she knew who that was! "I know Brandon yes! That's alright," she said happily. She hadn't gotten a chance with her new job to visit him in the Hospital Wing, so she'd be glad to see him again. Irina followed Kara to the flat she must share with Brandon. As they walked up the steps, Irina spoke again. "What do I even wear to go...bar hopping?" she asked curiously. "I...don't really drink. I mean, I have I've had a drink with my brother before but nothing crazy," she added, hoping it wouldn't put a damper on the night.. Though she had a feeling Kara would take that as a personal challenge over anything else. @karen

Irina said that it sounded good, the whole plan about her borrowing a dress and maybe staying over and going bar hopping and all the awesome things mentioned. Oh, this was going to happen and it was going to be amazing. "Oh! Brandon is my best friend in the entire world. Sweetest soul I know, we've been pen pals for years, even though I'm a bit older then ya'll," she giggled, "he is the love of my life -- in a best friend kind of way. My best friend soul mate -- do people have those?" she spoke fast, already getting jazzed up for the wonderful night ahead. Upon arrival at home, Irina asked what she would wear bar hopping and Kara rolled her eyes, opening the door and rushing toward her bedroom. Brandon wasn't home at the moment, probably still at physical therapy. "Something cute but comfortable enough to wear all night," she explained, starting to rummage through her side of the closet. It was black on black on black. When Irina said she didn't really drink Kara flipped around to face her, "well, there are other ways to have fun. Maybe you could drink a little if you so chose," she suggested. Then she groaned in frustration. "I don't like any of this for you-" she paused, her eyes flickering to something on Karens side. "You know... this might not be bad," she grabbed the red dress and tossed it toward Irina. Irina Rose Krum

Irina laughed, Kara’s enthusiasm for her platonic love of Brandon contagious. “He’s a good guy, we got to be good friends our last year in school,” she informed Kara. “And people absolutely have platonic soulmates; personally I don’t have one, but I know people who are thicker than thieves but would NEVER consider themselves romantically attached to them,” she added with a small shrug. She never understood why, depending on your sexuality, you couldn’t just be FRIENDS with someone of the gender you were attracted to. She had plenty of boys that were friends, but only one actual boyfriend. To her knowledge, he didn’t have the tendency to be jealous, so she could technically one day have a platonic soulmate. Who knows, her platonic soulmate might even be a girl. Irina nodded along with Kara as she perused her own closet; she noticed there was a LOT of black in there. It wasn’t surprising; Karen had mentioned Kara was the more….daring and outgoing side of her, the dangerous side even, and Irina could see why black clothing would appeal. Irina didn’t mind wearing black, but she enjoyed pops of color here and there. So when Kara pulled out the red dress, Irina’s eyes widened with anticipation. “I adore it, I can put my hair up into a high ponytail and some red lipstick…” she trailed off excitedly. Oh Dan would certainly LOVE this dress, she thought with a small smirk. @karen

Irina said Brandon was a good guy and Kara nodded vigorously, listening as she went on to speak about the very real phenomenon of platonic soulmates. "Well, as long as you understand. Not that I wouldn't ever be romantically attracted to Brandon if our situations were different, but-" she shrugged, things were how they were meant to be and they were perfection. Just like Brandon. Kara said she liked the dress, talking about what she would do with herself to match it and Kara squealed with glee. "Yes! I have several reds, in the bathroom cupboard. Go change!" she didn't wait for Irina to leave before she started unbuttoning Karens incredibly boring shirt so that she could change into something way, way better. Well, better for her purposes.

Irina laughed again; Kara’s bouncy, vivacious ways were infectious. She scurried off to the bathroom as Kara began to change without bothering to wait for her to close the door. To Irina, it was obvious that Kara could care less what parts of her body were seen by whom. It must be very interesting, or perhaps a bit horrifying, for Karen to learn what Kara did the night before. Irina changed into the red dress and magicked her hair up into a high ponytail; her hair was so long that the end of her hair still reached her mid-back. She had mused about cutting it for years now, but every time she sat down in a chair to chop it, she chickened out. Except for that one time, fifth year, but mercifully it had grown back overnight. She applied one of the shades of red lipstick that she thought matched the dress Kara was loaning her and checked her reflection in the mirror. Merlin she looked older than eighteen like this! She twirled around in the dress, and smiled, checking that no lipstick was on her teeth. Satisfied with the look, she exited the bathroom, still wearing her flats. “Well? What do you think?” she asked Kara, doing another twirl for the woman. @karen

Irina resurfaced and Kara was all ready to go. Kara grinned at the girl and nodded, growling, "well, well, well, if it wasn't for that pretty little boyfriend of yours I would have you for myself, Irina," she said, looking the girl up and down and then laughing hard. "Let us go! And make sure to twirl that like any chance you get tonight - it's really working for you," she said with a firm nod. She took Irinas hands and apparated, to the ground floor entrance of a building that would let them up to their first rooftop bar. This one was also a garden, but was still lit with dim lights and decently upbeat music. Mostly jazz. Kara ordered a scotch and told Irina to get whatever she wanted, then she headed straight for the railing overlooking the city. Irina Rose Krum

Irina giggled and blushed. “He is quite pretty,” she agreed with a wide smile. What, her boyfriend was hot and she wasn’t afraid to admit it! “I suppose it is rather predictable of me to be dating a Quidditch player, but what can I say? He’s quite the catch!” she added, shrugging her shoulders with a small smirk. There was something about Kara that made Irina feel more confident in what she said and did. She didn’t know if she’d ever boldly stated her opinion on her boyfriends attractiveness before; she just internally thought it, every second of every day, like most young adults did. Irina squeezed Kara’s hand as they Apparated, holding her breath unintentionally as she normally did when Apparating. For some reason, that made her feel like she was in more control than she actually was. Looking around the rooftop bar Kara had guided her into, Irina was momentarily speechless. It was so...pretty! She loved the jazz music and felt herself swaying to the music a little. She followed Kara to the railing and took in the view. “Wow,” was all she said. She stayed silent for a few moments before glancing down; there was a table with a drinks menu proppe dup on it. Plucking it up, she brought it to Kara’s attention. “What do you think I’d like?” she asked curiously. She’d try a drink, why not? It wasn’t every night she got to go out with Kara anyway. @karen

Irina said her boyfriend was pretty and Karen laughed, and then laughed even harder at the 'quite the catch' comment, especially since lots of catching was done in quidditch. Kara made a vow then and there to eventually meet this boy and give him the ol' talking to about how great Irina was and how much love and respect she deserved, but that could be saved for another time. Irina joined her at the railing, and Kara grinned at the 'wow'. Kara had a rare moment of silence looking down at the sitting before she looked up toward the sky. Then back to Irina as she asked what Kara thought she would like. Without even looking at the menu Kara spoke, "Blue Lagoon," she suggested. That was always a fun one, and a good one to start with.

Irina watched Kara curiously after her emboldened statment about her boyfriend being quite the catch. "What are you thinking Kara?" she asked, a small smile playing at her lips. From the few hours she had spent with the other side of the coin that was Kara Dunstan, Irina had quickly realized this woman was far more bold and outspoken than Karen was. What could she have up her sleeve with that look on her face? Irina didn't get a chance to get an answer as Kara ordered a Blue Lagoon drink. "Hmm sounds interesting, let's make it two," she decided with a nod. They walked up to the bar and ordered their drinks, getting two very blue concoctions handed to them as a result. "Wow, I wasn't expecting this to be so...blue," she admitted, then laughed. "Blue is my favorite color though," she added, then took a small sip of the drink. It was fruity, and very sweet; Irina would probably need to try something else after the drink was finished. It wasn't that bad though. "Cheers," she said, holding her glass up to clink with Karas. "To whatever surprises you have in store for me tonight," she toasted with a laugh. She had no idea what she was getting herself into, but she was excited. @karen
