So, something Avid(creator) loves to do is have unreliable narrators.
Avid has said on stream, that he killed his partner, and the first episode immediately happened after. This man stabbed someone he loved, and ran for it. According to the intro animatic, he also grabbed the bloody stake from their body as well.
Now, I have a question to ask everyone. Avid's intro animatic makes it look like the vampire turning happened behind him, that she attacked him immediately. However, there are things that dont add up.
First off, her hunting gear on the wall. If they had just been bit, wouldn't they be coming home from a hunt? Wouldn't the gear be on them? So how would she have hung up the gear AND gotten back out of the room with a bitemark without Avid noticing, or turning quickly?
We've seen from the person who got turned ep 1(not saying any vampire names bc this isn't what this is about but you know who) that turning is instant when all the bloods been drained(what i'm assuming killing them is.)
Not only that, but this bit from Avid's Video. He was talking to Shelby, about what she would do if her dad was a vampire. Shelby asked if her dad would eat her if that was true, and then Avid spoke and said: "I mean he would remember you probably so like, he would probably be like 'Hey, I'm sorry you had to see me this way' would probably be how it goes. And then y'know 'Do you want to join me as a vampire', which clearly then you would say..." "No, you'd say No."
That doesn't sound like a complete hypothetical. That doesn't sound like a immediate attack to his turning.
If his partner hadnt said those things, if it happened like in the intro, wouldnt avid have said something like "they wont remember. He'd be overcome by his hunger and attack anything that held blood." But he didnt say that.
Now that, that sounds like his partner tried to offer to turn Avid to me.
Now, back to the unreliable narrator bit.
The intro animatic shows It was an accident, she ran into the stake as he lifted it instinctually. As it pierced her heart by her own forward movement. Now, thats a pretty story, a nice thing to think about.
Because then Avid had to kill them to save himself. It was either her or him. He had to survive. She would have wanted him to live.
Because... he killed his partner. Stabbed them through the heart. And the only way thats even remotely okay is if its in self defence. So it has to be self defence.
He cant think any differently, or else he will break.
And him saying vampires are monsters, need to be eradicated? Well, that also has to be true, or else she could have stayed alive. But shes dead, and he had to kill her, so they have to all be monsters.
