[And he is sulking.

Everything about the city seems tailor-made to annoy him, from the bracelet he still hasn't managed to remove, to the fact that it suppresses his powers, to Helen's new boyfriend, to everything.

Which explains why he showed up for the dinner with two bottles of Helen's wine for himself. Stolen, of course, but he'd say borrowed if questioned.]

...Where are the glasses?

[....No, he's definitely not inventing a reason to speak, why would he want to do that?]

[notanemptymotto]

Really? Two? [ Helen rolls her eyes. Honestly, Nikola, you're being such a child. Still she sighs and points behind her to the china cabinet. ] I'm surprised you haven't memorized where all my wine accessories are.

[martyrtoscience]

[Yes, two, Helen. Wine is his best friend and refuge.]

I have.

[notanemptymotto]

Then why did you have to ask?

[martyrtoscience]

I didn't have to.

[What happened to being nice to the sulking vampire? He just wants you to talk to him, Helen.]

[notanemptymotto]

[ Helen shakes her head and motions for him to sit down. ]

[martyrtoscience]

[He deliberates over which glass to take for a minute before sitting down. Not because she told him to, but because he wanted to.]

How long will this take?

[notanemptymotto]

[ Sure, Nikola. ]

As long as it needs to. You know that you could actually help instead of just wandering about an empty Sanctuary.

[martyrtoscience]

I know. I'm a genius.

[That doesn't mean he's been helping. He knows he can but it sucks here. He needs his moping time.]

[notanemptymotto]

if anything it will keep you busy as opposed to sulking.

[ Helen is trying to help. Except she knows that Nikola just gets in these moods. ]

[martyrtoscience]

Nothing grabs my interest here.

[notanemptymotto]

Have you even tried to go out and see the world? How can you be bored on a brand new planet, Nikola? Surely there's some sort of experiments for you to conduct.

[martyrtoscience]

Henry and I took a walk. It's not that interesting.

[Mope, mope, mope.]

[notanemptymotto]

You took a walk? With Henry?

[martyrtoscience]

[It was more of a mapping exploration.]

We needed to make our own maps.

[notanemptymotto]

May I see what you've come up with? [ She's curious. ]
