not here (or is he)

[nettling]

[pees here first before steve gets in ]

brain blasts like jimmy neutron (✿◠‿◠)

[babysitters]

( it takes awhile, but once Steve talks to Mathilde and bullies Billy into pawing through a (mostly) dead ladies things: )

Hey, so, I asked around, but pretty sure I found jack all. Please tell me you figured out something more helpful than she liked cats and jammed out with that cranky old fucker that doesn't want to help.

😗

[bloodrops]

[ Louis spent most of his time in the library making out with the Chevalier, but there was something. ]

Don't know about cats, but one journal mentioned a trapped servitor. The text suggests that starving the beast could force it to self-exorcise its host.

"If physically bound to one location—indefinitely without a manner to sustain itself— shouldn't it seek out another with similar grievings to feed on?"

[babysitters]

Starve it? Starve it of what. Just... food? Because she's gotta be hungry as hell as it is.

[bloodrops]

It's basically saying we should leave her.

But if this is the only way mentioned, shouldn't it have worked by now?

[babysitters]

Similar grievings. That's not food. That's like. Sad.

( these things feeding on vibes is SO ENTITY coded and yet Steve gets the ugly eye for bringing up the fact they're clearly in a super weird trial. so fine, he WON'T bring it up.

but he's thinking it. )

Maybe that's the problem. It's hungry but there's nobody else that feels bad like Agnete does. Or... I don't know. ( he is not the brains of this operation, he is the collect rings and harass NPCs part of this operation. )

[nettling]

Is it just me or is even the blood here starting to taste depressing?

[Is he reaching for something to talk about? If he is, he doesn't know her.]

[bloodrops]

[ play it cool, lou. ]

It's not just the blood. Have you heard the elders whispering? They're talking like they're afraid it'll come true if someone hears them.

[nettling]

Beliefs from the old world are difficult to shake with no better explanation to shed light on them.

[ Is Louis still on his campaign to disbelieve everything they've told him thus far? Is he still choosing to die on Agnete's hill?]

You disagree, obviously.

[bloodrops]

[ yes. ]

Agnete's death didn't cause this. Her death came as a relief.

The blood tastes different because it's going to be winter soon.

[nettling]

[ Louis spent most of his eternal life in the south where winter is less harsh. Whose old world beliefs are getting exposed now?]

It's not the weather, it's the taste of dread spoiling the light of life.

idk when this happened but sometime 🥰

[babysitters]

Do you really not turn into a wolf or were you just fucking with me.

( he's not disappointed. obviously. but seriously, Louis, why don't you turn into a wolf? )

[bloodrops]

If you know a vampire who can do that I think they were lying about what they really are.

[babysitters]

Yeah, no. That dude was a vampire. He had the jacked up teeth and a cape and turned into bats and everything.

[bloodrops]

[ he laughs at the mention of a cape. ]

Did he also pull a rabbit out of a hat? You've seen too many scary movies, Steve.

[babysitters]

( IDK WHY UR LAUGHING LOUIS DRAC IS 100% THAT BITCH )

It wasn't a movie, dick. Trust me, I wish it was. The guy was an asshole, you try running from a dude that can switch between dog, bat, and a floating douchebag that can make walls of fire, for some goddamn reason.

( ... ... . . .. )

So can you do the fire thing?

his voice, quiet, hours after the meeting.

[mountreal]

Are you okay?

cute

[bloodrops]

[ not the first time his life has been put at blast, unfortunately, but Shane doesn't need to know that. ]

Yeah, I'm fine.

Are you having trouble sleeping?

a shiny little button

[mountreal]

No. [ He says, still awake while Ilya is all but dead to the world beside him. ]

Well, I'm awake now. In case they surprise us with a different timeline. And plan for their fucking sacrifice. [ In other words, yeah, he's worried about a midnight kidnapping. So he's awake. ]

What happened to you? After I left?

[bloodrops]

A fight broke out and the attention shifted away from me. The conversation quieted down soon after that.

[ see? he was right to tell Shane that these people would find a new target in no time. ]

I'm in the library now, trying to see if I can find anything on the people they sacrificed in the past. Seems like they've been at it for a while.... [ he sounds distracted for a moment as he grabs a book that seems like it could hold some answers-- ] You should get some rest. If you hear anyone coming, just let me know.

[mountreal]

A fight? Between who? [ Perhaps to Louis's surprise, Shane sounds more interested than worried, though there's still a bit of that in the question as well. Knowing who the fighters are will be important, one way or another. The bruisers on his team have always been useful.

But reading, research... that sounds even more useful. Something Shane feels stupid for not thinking of at all. Of course this place would have a library. He'd never thought that there could be a record of what's gone on in the past, though. ]

And what would you do? If I did hear someone coming? [ Because that had sounded confident, and Shane certainly isn't. ] Aren't you tired too?

SOMEWHAT AFTER DA MEETING

[babysitters]

Please tell me it was your fancy french boyfriend that ate those two townies.

( what a way to start a conversation, right??? )

[bloodrops]

[ it is a Choice. ]

What?

[babysitters]

Two dudes dead with holes in their neck? Come on, man. I'm not stupid.

( except for the part where he's here accusing a vampire of a double homicide, obviously!!! )

Somebody got vampired. That's you or Lestat. So which is it?

[bloodrops]

There's a third one. The young girl.

[ she wasn't here when those guys died, sure, he just wants to be pedantic because Steve seeing right through their game is annoying. and dangerous. ]

Steve. You really want to have this conversation?
