finish what you started. / from @1mperium

black dilated irises swallow the green of louis' gaze . even when he forces himself to look at giulio and away from the body separating the two of them , there's still an urge to crouch down and lap at the blood ( like a damn dog , he thinks , like a common animal ) . the now unconscious man had had the gall to interrupt a conversation between the two tourists and , though it was obvious he was intoxicated beyond reason , giulio had suggested that a quick and violent solution was in order . one that would feed them both , no doubt , but louis had made it clear that he was not interested in participating in the killing of humans . especially not of those underserving . especially not of those who were vulnerable ... he'd later change his mind when moving to san francisco .

louis had instead punched the man and watched him fall onto the cobbled street like a puppet with cutoff strings . he had felt his nose fracture under his knuckles --- blood ran down the man's face and pooled pathetically against his cheek . if he was fast enough , louis would be able to get a taste before it coagulated ... no . the american clenched his jaw and swallowed down the hunger he had kept in a cage for years now . he had picked up this habit back in new orleans with lestat de lioncourt and had carried it over to paris with him . A SOUVENIR in the shape of a self-inflicted struggle . louis deserved these obstacles , he deserved this hunger ... giulio , on the other hand , succumbed to the nature of their condition with pride .

the other man uttered a command and louis could not help but feel his expression harden ; it had been a while since anyone had tried to tell him what to do . he was surprised to find it still left A BITTER TASTE ON HIS TONGUE . " no . " he declared , adjusting the collar of his jacket . " we're done here . "
