[It's 1 AM. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE?

Someone (and by someone, I mean Merem) hasn't partaken in any blood like he requires. Killing is oh so boring and he'd rather wait until he was on the edge of starvation.

But, then again, if he didn't, he'd dry up and wither away into a fine powder and that wasn't the kind of fate he was looking for.

So after partaking in drinking the blood of a random drone, he rips off its head just to assure it won't become a ghoul or possibly another vampire. You can never be too sure about these things and if ghouls started running around, he'd be the only target for Arcueid and Ciel.

The next problem was disposal.

You can easily find Merem stuffing a body larger than himself in a trashcan and then tossing the head in too. Do you know that drone? MAYBE. It sure would be unfortunate if you did. Merem will give it a prayer if you ask nicely.]

I wish there was a way to make this process less....dirty. Too bad God doesn't grant wishes to heretics, hah.

That's nonsense. You would expect otherwise? It's what I do for a living. And to think that I'm not even armed with the Seventh Holy Scripture here: did you really become that weak? That's disappointing, Merem.

Without you, there's no one to keep me in shape.

[ex_seventh238]

Aah, but I'm still mortal. What have you done before I joined the Agency, and what shall you do after I die?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Those are days long past, Ciel and I hardly wish to think about the future.

[ex_seventh238]

Am I supposed to believe that you are one who supports the philosophy, "relish the present", Merem?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Are you really that intent on ruining my fun?

[ex_seventh238]

Didn't you just say that you needed me to keep you in shape?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

And yet you absolutely denied it. So which one of us here is the hypocrite?

[ex_seventh238]

I did nothing of the sort. I simply asked what you did, or would have done, without me. Though I suppose that it is a rhetorical and pointless question with no answer, to ask of a Dead Apostle Ancestor.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

One I would prefer to not answer too. Leaving some mystery is always helpful.

[ex_seventh238]

Of course. Wisdom loses a great deal of impact, if knowledge and experience that one doesn't possess cease to be mysterious. You do have an image to maintain.

Are you done for the night?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

I happen to be finished, yes.

[ex_seventh238]

So have I. The town seems quiet tonight. Are you ready to head back?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

I suppose.

[ex_seventh238]

Then let's go.

[WHOOSH into the night.]
