Anything Goes | Kevin & Finnian
kevinphleobes:
Emergency exit, dumb teenager pranks and a missed dinner, of course. Kevin nodded in understanding as he watched the boy sitting on the ground. Teenagers tend to be stupid and he had both been recipient and cause of such stupidity when he was still alive.
“Are you a bat… uh, person?”
“A what person?” the vampire asked though he heard him perfectly, he just found it silly. “No, I’m not a bat person. I’m a vampire.” He almost cursed out loud at the cheesiness of having to introduce himself to the boy, but made no comment about it as he eyed the boy curiously. “Is it time for dinner already?”
“Oh,” Finnian felt dumb. ‘Bat-person’... how stupid of him. “Right. I mean, I didn’t really think of it,” he added, shrugging and wondering if he ought to have realized when he thought of bats. More importantly, the selkie decided he should get out of the mine as soon as possible. He didn’t know if this vampire was in fact a student of the school, or some unwelcome guest that got past the security -- unlikely, but one never knows for sure -- and wasn’t bound by any contract and could kill him anytime.
He sounded young enough to be in school at least, and seemed familiar with the set up of camp, but Finnian had reason to be wary. Only recently did he realized that was lucky enough to have survived two whole years without lasting damage, but for his third, he’s decided he’s pushed his luck more than enough times. He’s made it a goal to finish his contract with very good reason.
“It is, the last time I checked,” he answered, standing up and trying to get his bearings in the dark. As much as he would like to hurry up and get away, it was still unfair to judge a stranger just because of what he is. “Are you not coming?”
