Lenore entered, looking absolutely exhausted. Going to visit a certain friend in France turned out to be a terrible idea.

Being a vampire, and getting stuck all day in the sun didn't mix well. Though, on the bright side she did get a bit of a tan.

She plopped onto the first armchair she saw after throwing down her bag, which made a broken-glass type of crash. Lenore groaned, but didn't bother to go pick it up, or see what was broken. She actually began to doze off a bit, thinking of the various ways she'd get her revenge on her "friend" in France.

Though, come to think about it, other than nearly dying, the Theater d l'Vampir was actually really good. The show was good, the music was good, and the refreshments, definitely good.

After a while, Lenore got up to check whatever broke in her bag, and of course most of the vials and flasks full of human and vampiric blood were broken and leaking all over the place. The vampire groaned again, mumbling out a "oh come on!", and sighing, went back to the armchair, closed her eyes, and hummed a little tune- one of the pieces from the Theater d l'Vampir.

(Yooooooooo I'm finally back! Hey yeah. Ok. School was stressful, finals, tests, yknow. That stuff. And I had to retake my math final because the trig teacher decided it would b a good idea to have a very long and loud 2 hour conversation on his phone DURING the final. So. I failed. Even worse, the second time I took it, he didn't even grade it. He just put in the same score twice. Which. Sucks. I was literally .01 away from a B-. I'm just. Frustrated about that.

To be fair I did kind of forget about this place. Then I tried to get back on and forgot my password. And finally. I am here. I am back ladies and gentlemen. HA. Also go ahead an ask if you wanna see my closet cosplay of Hyde because I am DEFINITELY gonna do a actual cosplay of him eventually. Cause. I have the wig, the hat, the contacts, the cape. And I own a lot of green. So yep. There's that. ))

(Welcome back!)

Excuse me madam, are you quite alright?

* Hastie had been on his way to the library, carrying a couple of folders containing all sorts of research papers when he had stumbed her. He didn't recognise her, but she looked pretty exhausted.*

Lewis had been walking down the hall with an empty vial, on his way to see Maijabi.

However, the phrase "treason to vampire kind", coupled with Hastie's tone, led Weir to flinch...and accidentally crush the glass vial in his hand.

"Sh*t!" he cursed involuntarily as myriad shards cut his left palm.

Lewis looked up at Hastie and Lenore...realizing he'd used foul language in front of Lanyon and the vampire...and that he was bleeding.

"Pardon my French," he managed.

In the ensuing silence, a warm, red drop of fresh blood hit the cool, hard floor with an audible plap.

Weir looked at his hand, then back to Hastie.

Another drop fell to the white tile, mere inches from the first.

"It's nothing; I just--"

He shook his head, looking a little sheepish.

Plip. A third drop.

"It was just clumsy of me, is all. Wasn't thinking."

Plep. A fourth.

* Hastie chuckled and took Lewis' bleeding hand in his to study the wound.* The day you aren't thinking...

* He fought an urge to taste the crimson drops before they fell to the ground. Where had such absurd thoughts come from? First the wicked sunburn, then insomnia, and now this? You know what's happening, you idiot, you just don't want to admit it.

But oh did those drops look tempting.*

We'd better get this stitched up. Can't have you staining my floors, can we?

"Oh, I don't know that it's bad enough I'll need stitches," Weir demurred. "But I should at least get it bandaged," he admitted with a brief glance to the floor, "before I make crimson the Society's new accent color," he joked.

"Would you mind opening the infirmary door for me? No sense making any more mess than necessary."

Yes, of course. *He let go of Lewis' hand and started walking towards the infirmary. He called to the Lodger he'd just met that they weren't finished, but she just waved him off as she lay in the chair. Upon reaching the door he noticed that he'd gotten a few smudged out drops of blood on his right hand from when he had taken Lewis' hand in his. They at least he hadn't stained the folders he was carrying. He quickly opened the door and followed Lewis inside. The smell of disinfectant stung in his nose.*

"Hastie, I think Lenore wishes to help," said Lewis inside the infirmary.

"Though, really, I don't see what all the fuss is about," he said to both of them with a shake of his head. "It's just a cut."

I'm not so fragile that a thing like this would do me in.

It wasn't even metal, so there's no risk of lockjaw, either, he silently reflected.

* Hastie sat Lewis down on one for the beds and started rummaging through cupboards looking for disinfectant and bandages. While his back was turned to Lewis he quickly tasted some of the blood that had been drying on his hand. The smell may have been metallic, but by God he had never tasted anything so sweet in his life.*

Lewis, meanwhile, helped himself to some nearby instruments and began picking the slivers of glass from his palm.

Though Hastie had his back to Lewis, the pattern of his soul was not lost on Weir--particularly when Lanyon allowed himself to taste the blood.

Thought so.

Suspicions confirmed, Lewis filed the information away, but said nothing...yet.

"Thank you, Hastie," said Lewis as he laid the last bit of glass aside. He looked at Lanyon appreciatively.

"I dare say it's glass-free now--at least, from what I can see. But perhaps you'll spot a sliver I missed."

Weir held out his palm for his fellow doctor to examine.

(Sure Lewis, just out your hand in the lion's mouth why don't you!)

* Hastie looked at him for a brief moment before taking Lewis' hand in his own again. The metallic smell was nauseating from this small distance. He slowly bent over slightly more to get a closer look, and found no more glass embedded into his palm. The blood that was still seeping out of the cuts quite... hypnotising. How it made his own heart race and his breath quicken. Surely Lewis must hear it beating against his ribs.*

Weir watched Lanyon stare intently at his palm.

A moment. In which Lewis could feel the minute change in vibrations from Hastie, everything tuned to the beat of the heart.

But Lanyon still hadn't replied, one way or the other, regarding whether or not he saw any glass.

"Have I missed something?" asked Weir, meaning it in more than one way.

There we are, thought Lewis as Lanyon lunged straight for his face.

Weir turned and tilted his head, not only exposing his left carotid artery and jugular vein, but also putting them directly in the path of Hastie's oncoming fangs.

He's sure to hit something this way.

Hm. Glad I don't have long hair right now.

* The force Hastie had put behind his lunge sent them both sprawling down the other side of the bed and onto the floor. Hastie's mind went blank as he felt his fangs puncture the artery and the warm blood gushed out. He couldn't feel a thing except for an animalistic hunger that overpowered all of his other senses.*

Lewis twisted as they fell and maneuvered himself to take the brunt of the impact, landing with his back against the floor and Hastie atop him.

* When they first fell, Hastie had pinned Lewis to the ground in order to counter any struggle. But as he kept drinking and the struggling remained absent, he moved his left hand to Lewis' head and moved it to the side, further exposing his neck to him.*

Jekyll1886  Hastie Lanyon • 2 years ago

Lewis not only let Hastie move his head but helped further the motion voluntarily.

"It's alright, Hastie," Weir reassured, careful not to create too much excess movement as he spoke.

Moments ticked by. Lewis had calculated how he ought to feel, according to how my blood he must be losing.

But his calculations were...off.

I should be feeling woozy by now. Why...?

He knew his own body backwards and forwards.

Lanyon wasn't drinking lightly.

What was the unknown factor?

...

OH!

Millie's virus. She said it would work to keep me alive... Perhaps it detects the blood loss, and is seeking to compensate?

Huh.

That's convenient.

He kept his head in place but turned his eyes to Hastie.

Hastie, lost in the sensations of the moment.

Oh, Hell with it--a little longer can't hurt...

* After a while, Hastie gradually slowed down. He'd been drinking like a man starved of sustenance for a year. As the hunger left, his senses starting to come back to him. The room seemed too bright, the floor under his knees too hard, the blood in his throat too warm. He soon let go of Lewis' neck, but he didn't dare to look at him. There was still more blood that came seeping our of his neck, but Hastie paid no heed. Instead he let his head rest in the floor next to Lewis', and closed his eyes. Soon he'll bleed out, and he'll be gone. Just another corpse left in your wake. You shouldn't be taking care of these people, they'd be better of without a monster like you.

Let them find me. Let them kill me for this.*

Just as Lewis began to feel a little dizzy...Hastie stopped. Sank down next to him. Physically better, but the shift in emotions...

Weir moved a hand to his neck, putting just enough pressure to stem the flow, but not so much he'd be in danger of losing consciousness.

He held still, letting the body (and everything in it) do its work.

After a few minutes, he dared to lessen the pressure...then pull his hand away entirely.

The wounds bled no further.

Positively remarkable...

"Hastie..." he said quietly, looking to him. "Are you alright?"

"Technically, I was supposed to be dead after Hawley nearly beat me to death," he chuckled weakly.

"But I assure you, Hastie," he said, looking at Lanyon with both understanding and sympathy, "I'm in no danger of dying. Just can't sit up quite yet. Little woozy. Be fine in a bit. And perfectly willing to explain how it's possible.

"Had you continued further, I would have," answered Lewis.

He tested raising his head up to see if dizziness overtook him.

None did.

Cautiously, he dared to prop himself up on his elbows.

Still conscious.

"I knew better than to interrupt while you were in the thick of it," he continued. "And I know the limits of my own body." More or less. "What I did, I did of my own free will, Hastie. I chose not to stop you, because I wasn't in danger yet."

He hoisted himself into a sitting position.

"Nothing irreversible has occurred here. And there's now a much better chance nothing will. You won't be walking about the Society hungry. And I'm a man who can keep a secret," he assured.

"Have you had this condition long?" he asked, with the perfectly natural bedside manner of a seasoned physician. He hoped it might calm Lanyon at least a little. Get him into a more professional mindset, the familiar model of patients with maladies to be cured, not monsters and moral judgments.

Don't use that patronising tone on me, doctor. It doesn't work. *After the initial shock had passed Hastie felt furious. Clearly the doctor had somehow known something was wrong before Hastie had bit him. He was as cool as an iceberg, even when Hastie was leeching the life out of him.*

I shouldn't even be alive, and yet here I am. Sinking my teeth in whatever is in front of me.

He was one of my Lodgers, Lewis. Claude Beauchamp, crypto-toxicologist. I looked him up after I'd woken up and understood what had happened. Before that I barely even knew he existed. Just that there was an odd man with a fancy name on the second floor.

"In the meantime, we shall simply have to find a way to manage it. It's vital. The survival of the Society itself is at stake.

"I'd advise going to Dr. de Lezo for advice. He's not only managing well, but has saved many lives. If anyone would know how to cope, 'tis he. I can ask, casually. Or you can, if you trust him to keep a secret.

"Probably not. But if he does, I'll bash his face in. And lock him outside during the day."

"G-good?" How would locking him outside during the day help? What if this Armand caused a big scene and attracted attention to the Society?

She poked the tip of the blood with her shoe. This all felt very familiar. Blood to clean up, a stranger saying strange things, and potential danger to her home.

Elias. Alice's face paled at the thought of his name and she shook the thought from her head before it grew.

"Maybe we should clean this up before someone sees it?" She looked at her reflection the crimson fluid.

She sighed, then nodded, and got up to get a dark brown rag out of her bag. Apparently it had done this before. She tossed it onto the puddle and it, quickly began absorbing the red liquid.

"... it'll be done in a minute or so."

Alice quietly watched the puddle shrink. After a moment, she spoke, "Are you a lodger?"

"Yep. I joined a few months ago." Lenore replied, kicking the tag so it would get more of the splatters.

"Oh." Alice watched the rag slide over the blood with a resonating wet sound. "I haven't seen you around here before."

Alicia was in the kitchen, baking away her sorrows. She was lost in thought, but was ripped out of her daydreams when she heard the sound of glass shattering. She looked around, worried she broke something, but didn't see anything... so she went out of the kitchen to find what was wrong. She saw a woman on an armchair and walked over, frowning. "Excuse me, was that you who broke some glass? I need to make sure I didn't break a dish. I don't think I did... but I'm just checking...."

((Question! Does this vampire drink with fangs from the neck or does she get blood and drink it from vials? Were the vials just travel blood things?))

"Hm? Oh yeah, my bag, there was some glass stuff. I don't care it's whatever, I'll clean it up in a bit." Lenore replied, waving a hand a little.

"You look down, whatsup?" She asked, actually not even looking at the other. Yes, she was really good at reading people.

(She is actually working on a cure for vampirism, and that's what the vials were for. So no, they weren't for drinking. And yes. Lenore prefers her blood from its source. Though, not the neck, maybe like a wrist or something so as to not risk killing her victim/donater??)

Alicia frowned slightly. "N... nothing, miss. I'm fine..." she stuttered. She wasn't even looking at her, how could she tell?

(Awwwesome. Just makin sure- sometimes vampires vary.)
