[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.

[cryptsleeper]

[Alucard sighs, and then finally withdraws his arms from around Trevor. He doesn't like this, the feeling of regression. But he is in no place to do more.]

If you insist.
