i’m living with a cannibal ;
his threat was very much a possibility despite his preference for the blood of women. it was yet to be seen how things would work around here, and whether he’d have access to such thing or not. in any case, DIO had already made of this young man his main target—someone that did not compare to his stature of physique, and very much made him doubt that he possessed the strength to put a fight against him if circumstances led to that.
still, the way he was acting had the vampire intrigue. he had made the mistake of underestimating his enemies on the past, and for that reason, he was wary of the other when his behaviour turned erratic.
a single brow is raised at the obvious, made-up sound of a phone ringing in the distance, and golden hues followed the man around the room, searching for whatever that could pass as a phone. it would’ve been so easy to dismiss the way he was acting and proclaim him as crazy, but something about it made DIO reconsider. for a man that had been through far too many bizarre experiences, it wouldn’t be that crazy to believe he was actually talking to someone on the other line.
“—go ahead. i’m not going anywhere.”
Underboss wastes no time after he’s been answered, lowering palm from the phone and pressing it against the side of his head.
❛ Click ! Beeeeeeep.
Boss ! I’m so glad you called, I ━ ❜
Expression lights up for just a moment, before he remembers. A glance is stolen housemate’s way, and voice is cautiously lowered. Body has turned it’s back on the threat at hand, figuring that if they agreed to wait, there’s no indication he’ll be attacked out of the blue.
❛ ━ I really need your help right now. I think my new neighbor is trying to. . . Eat me ? I know how that must sound, but. . . ❜
❝ Oh, Doppio. ❞
An exasperated tone at the end of the line, almost tired ; as if someone on the other end had been taking a careless nap, and was woken from distant bickering.
❝ My sweet, forgetful Doppio, you already know my range. ❞
❛ W ━ well. . . Yes. . . But I can’t just kill him, I’ll have to find a new place to stay. I’m so tired of little apartments. ❜
❝ Then the answer is fairly simple, leave the room. If he attempts to stop you, I will assist. Hang up. ❞
Mouth hangs open as if underboss would like to protest, but quickly decides against it.
There’s a brief pause before he does as he’s instructed, hanging up the phone and turning back to false god. Broken handle is held out toward them.
❛ Sorry for taking your phone, but I should leave now. ❜
