Filtered away from Julian

[lightenshadows]

I did a Demon Thing to Julian. Two nights ago. I don't know what it was. I didn't mean to. He says everything's fine, but I don't know how to stop from doing it again. I don't know what happened to make me do it this time.

I said I'd never let anyone hurt him.

You did a demon thing to Julian? Like what, Sweetie? If he says everything's fine, I'm sure it is. But I have the creds in this department so feel free to ask me anything.

[lightenshadows]

He said he felt drained... or sucked.

[deirdre_ionuin]

Oh! Oh I see. Right, the soul-sucking thing. Oh, Damon, it won't hurt him. You won't drain someone completely unless you really mean to. And even then, he'll just fall asleep and wake up with a headache.

You cannot harm his health that way. Know that first.

As for stopping it, if it happens again you'll probably notice it or what you did when it happened. Slowly you'll start to realise that it's going to happen and you'll get it under control. It's all part of learning. Growing pains, if you will. Julian knows about this stuff, so he'll understand.

You're not a bad person.

[lightenshadows]

Okay.

[hail_st_joseph]

But he's okay, right? He said he was okay?

I don't know why I'm asking that, he just bounced into the room and announced that he's 'Super Spiffy at the mo'.

[lightenshadows]

He's okay.

I'm so sorry, Joe.

[hail_st_joseph]

Damon, if he's alright, you don't have to apologise. Can you tell me what happened?

[lightenshadows]

We said we loved each other. And then, I don't know. He said he felt weak, that I had done something.

[myeyesarehollow]

He knows you won't let anyone hurt him. If he said everything's fine, he meant that. Julian doesn't cover things like that up.

[lightenshadows]

You're right. I just wish I had said that I would not hurt him either.

I wish so hard I hadn't done this.

[myeyesarehollow]

But you see, he already knows that.

Everyone does things they regret. But love gets you through it.

[in_spectre_mors]

I don't know that there's really much I can add to what's been said already. But know that I trust you, and that I'm incredibly pleased to see you and Julian together, and having grown so close.

[lightenshadows]

I am too. Thank you.

[in_spectre_mors]

You're most welcome, my friend.
