❛   oh , do not stop on my account , mon cher. i am simply admiring the craft. ❜ the corner of his lips slants up as lestat's gaze flickers over the bloody mess that the other has made. his head tilts as he crosses one arm , the other propped up at the elbow as limp wrist rests near his chin. a critical little hmm leaves him. ❛ i will say though , you'll find it a much easier process if you suck instead of chew. you're wasting so much blood . . .   ❜

@d-eadeye ... the writing is totally immersive. there isn't a piece of dialogue or single line that it's absolutely dripping in ˗ˋˏcowboy ˎˊ˗ ... it's truly something else. the way the narration in my head utterly changes in tone, accent and all, reading ... and dare i say even replying back. — Dirty cowpokes belonged far from the perfumed purlieus of sovereignty ... banger of a line.

@neverburied ... firstmost, they have an eye for some serious breathtaking graphics ... taylor and their love for romantic writing is what initially grabbed my attention ... and i mean, that's a good enough reason for me to be an admirer. there should be more romance writers. and they seem to get the difference between a a) romantic pairing/elements in plot and b) romance and how they aren't always the same thing. oh, and the writing here is an absolute stunner.

               "Or what?" Jasim was in no means short, but creature dwarfed essentially everything he came into contact with so the little leech was no different. "I don't think we've met." Deciding not to react to the vampire's delicious fear, he continued. "My city has a system," one that has since been shaken the hell up since the reveal of supernaturals to the mundanes, but something he still liked to keep in check to ensure that he still could hold power, "and that system includes me knowing all the leeches on a somewhat personal level." There was a growl, a show of teeth. "Now who might you be?"

It had been a quiet night. Peaceful, even. Genevieve lazed on the surface of Lake Nimue, her tail glittering gold in the moonlight. She’d been practicing a trick for the last four hours before she had to take a break. The night before, quite by accident, she had managed to turn the thick humidity into a dense fog that surrounded her like an impenetrable cloud. She had been so proud, so excited to feel the energy flow through her body, like a rush of cold water.

It seemed as if tonight wasn’t going to grant her the same luck, so she chose to relax her tired mind and soak up the energy from the moon. The gentle waves lapped against her body, comforting her as her eyes drooped, heavy with sleep. She was almost under when the slightest vibration rippled against the water. Her eyes shot open, pupils narrowing into thin slits before she slipped underneath the dark water.

She shot through the darkness, darting around plants and hiding within the thick grasses at the edge of the lake. She remained frozen, her curls blending in with the thick grass as they waved along, a perfect camouflage. The space to her right shifted, prompting her to dart back a few feet. Her eyes, now glowing a deep yellow, take in frantic movement in front of her. Her body froze once more, every nerve ending feeling like a live wire, urging her to capture and kill. There was a brief shock of fear at the new, primal urge, but she had no time to analyze why it was happening.

She was a rush of gold and curl, rocketing through the water towards the thrashing body, colliding into it like a cannon ball busting through a brick wall. She had misjudged her speed, causing the tangle of the two of them to tumble out from the water and onto the ground. Strings of saliva dripped from her mouth, frenzied eyes darting around the stranger’s shirtless torso, searching for the answer to quell this incessant, burning need. The stranger writhed underneath her, strangled screams turning into gargled moans as she digs her sharp claws into the center of his chest. A deep crack ricochets through the still night air as she breaks open the stranger’s rib cage. She looks down, saliva dripping into the open chest cavity below her. A growl rumbled through her chest before she dove in, face first, moaning at the warmth on her cheeks, mouth, and hands.

               "Oh, I am. I've just come here to watch." And that's what he did. He simply leant in the doorframe and placed hands in jean pockets while keeping direct eye contact with the other. "You're all about the fucking around, now I just might thinking that you're in the find out phase." He let some sort of smile appear on features, wanting this to be some sort of teachable moment for the young vampire. "I don't even think I want to know how you got yourself into this mess." Tone lightened up for a moment just to make something of a joke. "It just sucks that I'm not longer able to eat popcorn."

               Trunk of car was opened to reveal four coolers, Soren opening each to reveal them to be full of fresh human blood. "Used to be a doctor." Still technically was, just not working at a hospital anymore. "Got some connections, knows someone who knows someone kind of deal and my fridge needed a top up." Closest cooler was closed first, then the rest as he motioned to start moving them into his literal hole in the wall bar. "Wanna bring the other ones in and I can get Amira to mix you a drink?"

Elias looks on Jasim with a timid, reproachful gaze. His hands shake, his body feels alien to him even now, even still. Everything is different now. There's no reversing it, Elias knows this, but it doesn't make it any less painful. Any less terrifying.

"no, i... knew about vampires already." He mumbles, voice revealing the true extent of his exhaustion. Then was it that he could starve? Truly starve into something that went beyond undeath? Maybe it was something else entirely. Maybe it was only that someone was trying to help him at all was the part he had trouble believing.

His eyes turn downwards towards his feet. His voice remains soft, apologetic even.

"i don't want to hurt anyone."
