I feel a Friendship Evening is in order! I have prepared name tags and refreshments to help in getting to know each other better. If anyone has any vampire-related issues feel free to talk to me!

[there are indeed name tags, fruit juice and cookies on a table. the cookies are... edible at best]

[there is now also a glittery 'VAMPIRES WELCOME'

[I have a name tag. I dislike you immensely.]

... Why are we doing this?

[daddyderpest]

[BOK!]

I heard that! Don't be mean to Yuuki.

[bitingcynicism]

This is foolish. It doesn't change anything.

[daddyderpest]

There's no need to be so sour. Everybody's working very hard on what they feel is important.

[bitingcynicism]

... It's a bad idea to let this continue. You know that.

[criticalbit]

Tell me, Zero, what do you expect me to do? Ignore my own father? Speak only to other vampires? Spend all my time isolated again--?

[bitingcynicism]

[... ouch that last one.]

... You told me what you wanted. Has being here changed that?

[bitingcynicism]

[Leaning VERY close to.]

Have I stopped you from speaking with humans? Have I forced them away from you?

[Voice falling to a rougher whisper.]

If you're going to give this back to him, if you're going to be part of this, you should at least be able to answer why you're doing it. Otherwise, I'm not going to let an arrogant pureblood play a game.

[criticalbit]

[Stiffening.]

[criticalbit]

Don't--don't twist this . . .

I already told you. He's my dad . . . my feelings on this matter haven't changed.

[bitingcynicism]

[Studying for another moment before pulling back slowly.]

.. Fine.

[criticalbit]

[Just. Going to stand here shaking just a little.]

This sort of test of my feelings . . . you have no right to do such a thing, hunter.

[bitingcynicism]

[Turning to the side at that.]

... I don't want things worse than they already are...

I want to make sure you understand what you're dong.

[criticalbit]

What do you think I'm doing? You think . . . I'm pretending? That I'm trying to use him?

[bitingcynicism]

I think whether you're trying or not doesn't matter if you don't understand. Is this what he should expect when we return? Or is just something limited to this warped reality?

[criticalbit]

. . . The Headmaster knows the positions we're in as well as you do. You may think we're just being sentimental idiots, but I don't think there's anything wrong with taking advantage of the time and freedom we have here together.
