[Sypha is home by the time Trevor returns to the waking world. Sypha is also pretty damn angry about the whole thing, which Alucard can't blame her for but neither one of them have gotten into the what the fuck are we going to do? part of the discussion. Much of it has been why did you go along with this?! and then a complete sidestep to deal with bullshit supernatural politics which are exhausting in and of themselves.
All of that is to say that Alucard actually misses the noises that Trevor is awake, and he walks in about five minutes later instead. (Sypha's only holding back because there's a very good chance that needing to have the element of surprise will help. Trevor's in no shape to fight, but that's not stopped him from trying before.)
The door's lock clicks open, and Alucard opens it slowly. No creaking or groaning of hinges, just wary and weary caution. He's down to a shirt and his usual trousers, nothing else, no fanciness to him. The scar is visible through the fabric if it sits on him just the right way, and the imperial haughtiness is gone. It has been replaced with a very weary twenty something who would like nothing more than to just curl up in bed with his girlfriend and read.]
Belmont.
[No ill intent. Just acknowledgement. Just breaking the silence first.]
