[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.

Doesn't really matter much here, does it?

This whole town is full of some unlucky humans trapped in a closed space with monsters who wish to kill them...and monsters that wish to kill each other.

And none of us are dead for longer than a day.

Princess, there is more to it than that. What you will lose won't be regained the next day.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

I doubt it can be lost here, everything returns to as it was.

But, that's only if I give her the opportunity to kill me. I've actually got something worth living for, she doesn't...save for ambition.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

No, Princess. You will have lost the right to be the Crimson Moon. That is why I can't allow you to be killed by her.

I dunno about that. Alternate dimensions really don't count.

Like right now, I could twist her head off without a second thought about it. All she would be able to do is just squirm and scream about it.

Hardly fair. But, I don't really care about any of that right now anyway.

I'm just saying you should keep your eyes open.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

I do. I know what my sister's been up to...and she's even admitted to stuff I didn't think she planned out.

Either way, I'm not leaving myself an easy target for her.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

I see. Can you do a favor for me?

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

What is it?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Smile.

[Arcueid just gives Merem a weird look]

What...why?

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Just an old man's indulgence.

[Arcueid smiles...albeit a bit awkwardly.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Y-you're welcome.

[Arcueid just kind of rubs the back of her head and continues giving Merem an odd look.]
