[ The room's pretty dark, even for winter in Exsilium. All that is visible is a small sputtering candle and Sho. He looks like he cleaned himself up a bit - his braids are all neat and his clothing looked like they've been laundered, but he also looks a little paler and there's a slight slur to his words as if he was rather tired.

Spoiler - he's just hungry and being broody. Silly bby vampire that he is. ]

If there was something you could get - like an object or a food - what would it be? Is there something that you would kill for? Or would it be something different? Would you kill for a person? Would you kill to protect?

Or should we just accept how things are and not think of whatifs and could-have-beens?

[ This was going to be an offer to work with the smugglers in bringing goods over from the UE but Sho's train of thought got derailed by other matters. ]

So let me ask you... What do you want? And what would you be ready to give in exchange?

I'm not about to kill anyone just because I need fresh blood.

And there isn't anything I have that I can give to people.

Fresh blood? [Well that's unexpected.]

The stuff in the plastic bags doesn't work. Even if it was drawn out right before, the moment it leaves the body, it goes dead.

...You're a vampire. [Well that explains the fact that he doesn't seem to age.]

So you're looking for someone who'll let you bite them? But without having to give anything in return?

Still a little young but yeah, I am.

I'm not making anyone like me. And I usually go after scum. At least, I'm saving the government the cost of the electric chair.

Or I was. I don't know how things work here yet.

Young?

[She quirks a quizzical eyebrow.] ...Can't you feed off someone without killing them?

With care, I could live centuries. It's only been a decade.

[ Not that he wanted to. He was ready to die when they pulled him here. ]

I haven't tried. Self-control isn't easy when you're starving and everyone smells like a five course meal.

For someone supposedly 'young', you sound pretty tired of your life already. [Her guess is it wasn't his choice to be turned into a vampire. Either that or it was but he's regretting it now.]

So it's that bad, huh? ...What about non-humans?

I had things I needed to finish, but that's all over now.

[ She would be pretty close to the mark with her first guess. ]

If animals would be easy to live off of, I wouldn't need to kill a human.

I see.

I didn't mean animals but, well, other breeds of people.

Never had that opportunity before. Where I come from, there were humans and us.

It could be an alternative. Some of the beings here might be powerful enough to give you enough blood for you to be sated without it being lethal for them.

Didn't think of that one.

Well maybe you should think of it. Especially considering it's kinda hard to say how long we'll be staying here.

Yeah, I'm getting the feeling that we're gonna be here for a long while.

Until we find a way to steal that machine or convince the Initiative to send us back.

Sounds like a lot of fun either way.

Indeed.
