I suppose so. Though, sometimes I think they would jump at the chance for bloodshed. Still, it isn't productive so someone has to steer them away from it.
( Some days, it's a wonder that one of her sisters managed to get through without painting the halls with blood. They were prone to moodiness, after all. The real question is if it is a personality flaw or simply another thing caused by vampirism. Either way, it's something for another time. The night is growing short and there's still the matter of her sister to handle. So after draining the contents left within her glass, Lenore turns her attention back to Alucard, setting it to the side on the table.
Still. It's a shame to have to end her time with the handsome blond. Oh well. )
Godbrand's unpleasantness aside, shall we see to your problem now? Any later and the both of us may end up having to stay the night. And I certainly don't think your father would appreciate that.
( She allows herself to briefly think on that scenario. A furious Dracula. A drunken Striga. Herself and Alucard having spent the better portion of the night together. It isn't a lovely picture for one as easy to anger as Dracula.
Lenore pushes herself up to a stand, taking a brief moment to smooth the dark fabric of her dress, then turns her gaze back to him, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. )
Though, I have immensely enjoyed meeting and spending time with you.
[Alucard knows that the words might be cheesy, but that doesn't make them less true. Lenore seems to go above and beyond for her sisters, and it gives a far greater sense of family than he's seen from most of his father's people in the past.
But she is right. The night grows old, and while the dead may travel fast, they still must contend with the sun. Dracula would not show any kindness for uninvited guests, and that means that the enjoyable part of the night must come to an end.]
I think we have no other choice, unfortunately.
[Alucard stands, but he makes sure to move both their wine glasses to the sink.]
I have as well. I think it should be possible to do this again, although perhaps in a neutral territory? I'm not opposed to one of the forests between our lands, so long as there's a fire.
( Honestly? If it weren't for the incredibly dangerous individuals around both of them, she might consider keeping him with her. But she can't imagine someone as pure as Alucard being in the same room with her sisters without being absolutely disgusted by them and a fight breaking out. Even Lenore has moments where they aren't her favorite people. Their views on humans is certainly something of a problem.
She folds her hands together in front of herself and smiles warmly at him, nodding at his comment. It's a surprising one, to be sure, but she's all for the suggestion. )
I'm...honestly surprised. Here I thought that the impression left by my sister might just destroy any desire you had to meet with me again. Either way, I'm more than happy to see you again. Just send word when you want to see me again.
( Lenore waits for Alucard to show her the way to his stairs, thus beginning the process of sister removal. At least it isn't as bad as removing rodents from a residence or something like that. )
[Alucard's aware of the faint tinge of redness on his face, and at least he can start walking towards the door in an effort to hide his face. He's sure that Lenore's judgement would just be adorable, but he'd like to avoid that opinion on top of the first.]
I will. We'll talk means of communication after the problem's solved.

aaand done!

[Onto the problem them.]
She's this way, if you'll follow me.
