Mm, an easier plan to say than to put into practice.
[But it is a logical one. Alucard can see how it might have come about, but it relied too much on any vampire trusting or even being willing to work with a Belmont. The situation that they are in now though, with how the Belmont ended up on his doorstep...that does work, doesn't it?
Alucard's plate is cleared. He stands up and he walks it over to the sink.]
I will say nothing of your confidence in me. And you need to learn the ways of this city. You are not in Europe anymore, and the rules are very different.
[By even being in the city, Trevor has bound himself to it's politics. By being offered as so-called tribute, he has had his persona and role defined for years to come.]
We will also have to come up with house rules, as I still don't trust you wandering these halls.
[ He gestures at himself, all up and about and shit. He'd have preferred the dying thing, but being able to move about is a good second place. It's said dismissively, and he shoves a forkful of food into his mouth afterwards. ]
[Sypha's done with her plate too, so Alucard takes it and starts to do the dishes. He stands slightly to the side, Trevor is not at the point where Alucard will turn his back on the Belmont yet, but. This will be their new normal for now, it seems. Until what to really do with Trevor is discussed. Until a miracle happens and this talk of taking over his father's place is pointless.

[ He huffs. ]
I'm guessing 'all the enchantments stay in place' is the first rule.

We'll discuss the others tomorrow morning. If I put furniture back in your room, do I have your word you won't take to making stakes?
no subject
But yes, I'll behave myself. I'm keeping the curtain pole. I like being able to walk.

[He just stares for a minute.]
I'm getting you an actual medical instrument, not an improvised piece of metal.
no subject
[ Yes. Yes they do. ]
I like my improvised piece of metal.
no subject
[WHY. ARE YOU LIKE THIS.]
Your improvised piece of metal is going to make your arm ache much too fast.
[You're getting an actual set of crutches, Belmont.]

[ He gets attached to inanimate objects easily! ]
no subject
Just. Just eat. Please.
[SHUT UP.]

He hopes it's the last one. He knows better.]
