[ He's been careful. Very careful. In a way that he didn't realise that he could be. And so he's never come back from Dracula's errands with worse than a few bruises.
And this is good, not because he's suddenly grown a sense of self-preservation, but because he's not permitted to talk overmuch about Dracula's errands. This is hard enough for the other two already. They don't need him showing up bloody with no way to tell them how it happened or whether it's likely to happen again.
He's claimed the shower before Sypha, because he, in his own words, has the most powerful smell. And so he's the first of the two to be ready for bed, emerging with still-slightly-damp hair and the smell of rose oil (the only clue about what he might have been dealing with). And he emerges to Alucard sighing dramatically at the space between his legs.
So he laughs. ]
Soon. [ He says, leaning over the bed to kiss the top of Alucard's head. ] Promise.
