[ Make him!! But... fine. He's quiet. Arms still folded against his chest. Bruised fingers still digging into those arms. Honestly, he doesn't even realize he's doing it or how tense he is. ]

...how long are you going to do this for?

[cryptsleeper]

Until you shove me off.

[quickwhip]

You realize I'm stronger than you, right?

[ QUESTIONABLE AT THE MOMENT given his somewhat weakened state and appearance and not keeping up with the blood drinking thing. But. Still. He can pretend. ]

[cryptsleeper]

I do, yes. But you're tolerating this for now.

[Alucard doesn't want to pick this argument. He just wants some quiet.]

[quickwhip]

[ Maybe he is, but... whatever. He just sits there then, letting Alucard side-hug him. Arms still against his chest as his gaze drifts down. ]

I'm glad you have her here with you.

[cryptsleeper]

I'm glad you have her too.

[Sypha makes them both far better, doesn't she?]

[quickwhip]

I'm not.

[ He says that softly. ]

Now you both get to see me die and come back a vampire. It's what I've always wanted.

[cryptsleeper]

You'd rather go through that alone?

[quickwhip]

Why not? I've done everything else alone.

[ And it... sort of hurts a bit, to say that. ]

[cryptsleeper]

[Alucard sighs softly.]

You know either one of us don't want you to be alone, right?

[quickwhip]

[ Trevor just sighs right back, looking away as he does so. ]

Yeah, I know. Misery loves company I guess.

[cryptsleeper]

Misery is currently living with guilt. It's understandable.

[quickwhip]

Am I misery and you're guilt? Because you also seem pretty miserable a lot of the time.

[cryptsleeper]

Yes, but I'm miserable because of guilt.

[quickwhip]

...ok. Fair.

[ Because, yeah. He gets it. ]

Anyways. You and Sypha can do... I don't know. Whatever the hell witches do here.

[cryptsleeper]

She has plans. For now, I'll just see where she intends to go.

[quickwhip]

Right. And keep an eye on Hector. So.

[ ... ]

Glad we sorted that out.

[ Did they though? ]

[cryptsleeper]

[They absolutely didn't. And Alucard still hasn't let go.]

I suppose so.

[Alucard falls quiet again.]

...Are you going to show off your flying skills for Sypha?

[quickwhip]

[ Flying skills? Oh Oh... ]

Considering I wound up naked in some alley? Probably not.

[cryptsleeper]

Wait.

[Give him a second. To not laugh.]

That's what happened?

[quickwhip]

[ ... ]

Maybe.

[cryptsleeper]

[Alucard pauses. And....]

We'll have to pack you an extra change of clothes and make sure you take the pack with you in that form then. That's easy enough.

[quickwhip]

Yeah. Guess so.

[ He just... hums in regards to that, letting his gaze drift down again. ]

Anyways. That's all I wanted to talk to you about.

[cryptsleeper]

I might've told her about the flying part too.

[Just so they're clear.]

Do you want me to let go?

[quickwhip]

[ Of course he did.

But, silent for a long moment, Trevor lets his gaze remain fixed on the flooring before he finally speaks. ]

Might as well.
