bad blood;

Kara Hyde | Vampire | 68 Don't test me sweetie, I'll rip your fucking heart out. ♔

Ares paused, confused by her response.  He’d fucked up, then showed up and only made it worse, and now she was trying to get him to stay.  He looked at her, biting his lip a moment before he spoke again Then I won’t leave.  I don’t want you to hate me Kara, no matter how much you should.

[kara-hyde]

 You know what Ares, as much as I sometimes really want to, I don't hate you. Not even a little.For the first time in what felt like months she was actually being honest. She didn't hate him, but he had hurt her...intentionally he was far from forgiven. You don't have to stay, I just didn't want to stand in the doorway with you and watch my ice cream melt. I'm not goin to fight for you if you want to leave.

Carefully, he let himself in, steps as cautious as if he were walking straight into a mine field. Alex tried to smile, but it only turned into a slight grimace as he tucked his hands into his pockets ad cleared his throat nervously. “Hi,” the young vampire hesitated, not quite sure what to say. “You’re Ares’s owner, right? I mean… was? Er-“

[kara-hyde]

"I was," She replied, folding her arms over her chest and giving him a hard look. "Who's asking, and why?"

Alex walked up to the door of the house a few streets over taking a slight hesitation to rub the back of his head before knocking quietly. Uh, Kara?

[kara-hyde]

Swinging her feet over the edge of the sofa Kara sat up right, looking at least somewhat presentable as he called out to the person at the door. "It's open"

[theodore-g-harris]

Theodore was curled up on the couch, sleeping soundly until there was a soft repetitive crunch that pulled him from his slumber. Theodore opened his eyes slowly, blinking at the sound as he tried to get the sleep out of his eyes.

[kara-hyde]

Kara wasn't at home but curled up on one of the lounge chairs in the library, munching away on  what was left of  a box of Saltines. She didn't need the nourishment , but it gave her hands something to do. 

[austinspencer]

Austin frowned and let out a sigh. This wasn’t want he was expecting- not her reaction, just her he guessed. I went through a 10 year long tunnel, the reception was bad. I don’t remember claiming that I wasn’t an asshole. He shrugged slightly, and raised an eyebrow at her. She looked like shit- but Austin at least had the common sense not to comment. I wasn’t aware that were-cats wore shoes. 

[kara-hyde]

Is that what you call having your head up your ass? Going through a tunnel? Does that mean that I get to call clawing your eyes out 'making a collect call' because I can. I know you didn't, I was just reminding you what you were. It wasn't fair of her to be taking out her issues on him but she was tired of using herself as a punching  bag. You're not funny, Austin.

Ares was silent, taking it all.  He deserved it, and as she spoke he just felt worse.  He hadn’t thought about that, and knowing he’d just hurt her more tore him apart inside.  I..I didn’t think.  I thought you’d want to know you were right.   I..shit.  He ran a frustrated hand through his hair and stepped back, hating himself even more than before. I’m so sorry Kara.  I shouldn’t have come.  It’s not like I was expecting you to be happy to see me or something…I’m a bloody fool. I won’t bother you again Kara..I’ll do everything I can so you don’t have to see me again.  I’m truly, deeply sorry.  Ares stepped back again to leave, not wanting to waste another moment of her time on his idiocy.

[kara-hyde]

She looked down at the floor swinging the door back and forth on its hinges as she spoke. I'm glad you feel bad, it makes me feel slightly better considering. But if you leave now I'll probably never forgive you. There's a  difference in losing someone because they died and losing them because they're an idiot. She looked up at him again, shrugging nonchalantly even as her words came out chilled. We're vampires, almost immortal so forever is a long time to have someone hate you.

[kara-hyde]

He nearly smiled when she answered the door with that slightly dismissive look and nasty tone.  He’d been right; she would be fine without him, and Ares was glad of it.  No matter how desperately he wanted her back, he knew it was better for her not to have him in her life anymore. Yeah, I…He sighed, running an agitated hand through his hair before he spoke I’m leaving.  Moving north, figure less people, less danger and all that shit. You likely don’t care, nor should you, but because of that I just had to tell you it…it was an act. Before.  Telling you to leave and acting like I didn’t care.  It was a stupid, fucked up thing to do, but it was an act to get you to stop caring about me.  The plan was to kill myself as soon as anyone I’d made a relationship with wouldn’t miss me, but then it got messed up by none of the others giving up on me.  Only person I’d managed to get to let go was you, the one I didn’t want to let go the most.  

So, yeah.  I just had to tell you, and I’m sorry.  It was fucked up, and it’s something I’ll have to live with.  I-I’m sorry.  

You know, She sighed, planting her feet in the doorway to keep herself from slamming the door and retreating into her home. -- and I don't say this to just anyone but I could really stab you with this spoon right about now. But I won't because that would be a waste of a good spoon. Threatening people was one of the things Kara did well, especially when she was hurt. Another thing was eating her feelings and then pretending they didn't exist. How am I suppose to believe that this isn't an act? That you didn't come here before running off like a coward in hopes that I still care about you because you're just that selfish? But you're right, that was a really fucked up thing for you to do. But what's even more fucked up is after forcing me to leave you, you come here and dredge that all up again... confessing that you're an asshole, telling me that I was the only one who let you go after I was perfectly fine with pretending like I was okay. 

I get that you're sorry, you've said it a bunch, but your guilty conscience is only making things worse. Maybe if you had maned up before you screwed everything up you wouldn't feel so bad.

Since you’ve gone nothing’s been the same, The wind don’t sing and the sky’s so dim.

[troublemaker-ares]

With a sigh Ares stood in front of Kara’s home, doing his best to ignore the painful ache in his chest.  No matter how much he didn’t want to, he knew he couldn’t leave town without telling her why he’d been so cruel.  He had no chance with her again, but he had to be honest.  Steeling himself, he knocked on the door and waited, looking just as awful as he felt but not caring in the slightest.

[kara-hyde]

Kara was riffling through her freezer when she heard the knock at the door. She figured that if it were urgent, or someone that she actually wanted to see they would just barge in and announce themselves so she took her time selecting her pint of ice cream  and grabbing a spoon before making her way to the door. When she opened it the rude remark slipped from her tongue and she suddenly wished she had brought something stronger than Mint Chocolate Chip.

Can I help you?

[austinspencer]

Some woman chucked a shoe at her on national television, and yeah- that’s why I didn’t ask. Austin watched her carefully as she chucked it over into another yard, and he shifted on his feet. Calling me a motherfucker in Spanish doesn’t exactly answer my question- but I didn’t ‘just show up’ for the reasons you think. I showed up, quite coincidently ran into you, noticed you only had one shoe on, and asked because most people are squares and wear shoes, Kara.

[kara-hyde]

I suppose it doesn't but what did you expect after nearly 10 years of radio silence? I didn't think there were any reasons behind your sudden reappearance other than that you are an asshole and the universe is out to get me. Yeah, well, She sighed, using the back of her hand to wipe her cheek, when it came away stained by her smudged mascara she knew exactly how terrible she must look. Being barefoot likely didn't help her case. Those people are pussies. 

[theodore-g-harris]

Theodore modestly tried to take a step back from the vampire, doing his best to look submissive and uninteresting. "I-I-I said-said I was s-s-sorry..." Theodore whimpered, not sure what else he should do. The human was trembling from fear of the vampire before him.

[kara-hyde]

"Yeah, I heard you the first time Just trying to figure out why I should care." She glanced down the street, wondering where she should go to next. She couldn't... wouldn't go home, and Kristine was likely locked up with her boyfriend, leaving Caleb who she was currently trying to keep from killing the two people she was forcing herself to get over. She honestly she really didn't have anywhere else to go at the moment, but harassing someone as timid as this kid was going to get her no where fast. "Do you know how much of an easy target you make yourself?"

[theodore-g-harris]

Theodore cowered under the woman, biting back a whimper when she stepped around him. Theodore sparred a glance up to look at her face, but almost immediately wished he hadn’t. Her skin was to perfect and pale to be a wolf. She was a vampire.

The human’s hand gripped harder on his cane, his thumb lingering on the trigger mechanism at the top in case he needed to release his simple weapon soaking in monoria.

[kara-hyde]

"So... any particular reason why we're currently in this situation? Or would you rather just continue to stand there awkwardly and not say shit?"
