[He..... doesn't know.....? Vexen must be complaining about how stupid he is all the way back at the Castle right now, and not even knowing why. But look, not all of them can be scientists! Not everyone has a good head for understanding this kind of thing. Maybe his blood is perfectly normal and refreshing. Maybe it's all..... gross and sludgy from the Darkness. Maybe he doesn't even have it anymore; he can't actually remember the last time he bled, now that he thinks about it. For all his complaining, the black coat is actually pretty protective.
There's a momentary flicker of hope, hearing that he might be getting out of this scot-free after all--only for Lestat to dash it seconds later. He looks a little like a deer in the headlights, with Lestat suddenly holding his face and gaze alike like this; quite abruptly, the only thought in his mind is Saix is going to kill me if I ever make it back.
Something tells him he can't just offer a glib excuse the way he'd like to. How does this guy even know? He's not supposed to say anything, but if he can't just explain it away, or change the subject, or something.....]
Wh-what do you mean, I won't feel it? Wouldn't that hurt?
no subject
