[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.

Good.

[Arcueid hops off of the roof, landing gracefully on the lawn.]

Though it'd be better if you could just be like me and not drink it...but I guess you Dead Apostles can't do that.

More and more vampires keep showing up...from other worlds too...it's getting hard to keep track of. I'm pretty sure there's one roaming around that I just can't track down too...

You should keep a closer eye on Ciel anyway. You know how she is with humans that end up associating with Dead Apostles. I dare say she'd kill much more.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

I'm keeping my eye on her. I don't think she's going to be too big of a deal until she starts getting her abilities back though.

I don't like that woman being in such a closed space with humans, vampires and various other creatures I can't even identify.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

If it's you asking, I wouldn't mind assisting, Princess.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

[Arcueid just looks at Merem for a long moment, might as well ask.]

Just let me know if she does anything stupid.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Of course.

Why are you out so late at night? I thought you had been preferring daytime antics lately.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Since I got some things back I kind of prefer being out at night now. I don't have to sleep as often as I did when I was a human.

[Arcueid slowly walks over to the trashcan as she speaks, giving it a light tap with the toe of her shoe.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

It isn't going to come back to life. Plus, it was a drone. I have no intention of attacking real humans here.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

I really wonder if drones can even turn. I doubt it...they don't really feel like people at all.

[Arcueid then looks wistfully up at the moon, staring at it for a long moment.]

It was kind of interesting being human for a bit...

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

It lost its charm after I found myself physically attracted to that woman.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Oh...you mean my sister?

[Arcueid looks a little too amused by this.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Aw did that really bother you that much?

...well...I guess I can see how that'd bother you.

[Arcueid looks over at the trash can again with a thoughtful gaze.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

She seeks to kill you, you know. You should be careful.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

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.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

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.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

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.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

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.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

[Arcueid just gives Merem a weird look]

What...why?
