For those of us who've had to leave a partner behind, I suspect this is not the most conducive of environments for... 'Fun'.

Verona, I don't have the same nocturnal requirements as yourself, but will accompany you to our lodgings, as soon as possible. You know what you shouldn't do and I'll be retaining supplies of nutrition.

That is all.

Waaiiiit, you mean the vamps don't get to be out in the sun this time??

Clever! XD

Well, I can't speak for them all, by any means. My inmate can't. I can, but that's more of a... Recent development.

Why do you ask?

Right?

Oh, no reason at all. Just want to be sure I don't have to watch my neck 24/7, yanno?

I don't think it really matters aboard the ship. It doesn't have any day/night cycles.

Shouldn't you know that, by now?

What the fuck are you talking about, I'm referring to the goddamn Port!

Then my question still applies: Haven't you enough experience to know by now?

What?

I didn't... Say otherwise.

Well, no, but at least it isn't trying to kill us? Puts it second to New York, surely.

From: [identity profile] fullmetalcorset.livejournal.com
Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm certainly grateful for that benefit.

It's just a little... Harsh to be cosntantly reminded of who you left behind.

I wouldn't argue with that, one bit. Although, thinking about it, being here with them, in such a ridiculous place, could be pretty bizarre too.

I wonder how Sexby does it, sometimes...

It was a deliberate choice of mine. With luck, no matter what happens here, I'll eventually be back without him noticing a thing.

I do wonder too, sometimes. They both seem to do a good job of it, though. I suppose they've been through a lot worse together. You'd think.

At least there's that, even if it still doesn't make it easy. I didn't get much choice on my end, but sometimes this stuff happens.

Yes, they do seem it. I appreciate their survivalist attitude.

There are times when the ship makes me focus on that age-old question... Whether means justify the ends.

Date: 2010-02-13 03:42 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] kingfor-aday.livejournal.com
It's admirable, really.

I think, like the inverse question, you have to take it on a case by case basis. Different means have different moralities, as do different ends.

From: [identity profile] fullmetalcorset.livejournal.com
Yes, I've often had to... My line of work demanded it.

And they're never straightforward, either.

Sometimes... Depends on how resolute you feel at the time.

Or if you allow yourself to feel, at all.

There's no use in the latter, though.

I found it necessary. My obligation was one of eradication. One simply can't allow emotions to interfere.

It would have been a dereliction of duty.

Which you can. I'll be monitoring from afar.

Quite frankly, I'm not sure there's anything I can teach you on this world. So long as you refuse to hurt or consume anyone, you may do as you please.

If you need blood, simply return to our room. I'll be taking more than enough with us. If we need more, I'll fetch that, too.

This place brings out... Morbid feelings in me.

I must say, that's a pleasant development in your outlook, Verona. If true, I suspect I'm not alone in suspecting you'd rather see it changed in a different direction.

I... Had someone before arriving on the ship. It was my decision to leave them behind. Whether successful or not, it was always my plan to return without them knowing a thing.

A place like this only serves to... Reinforce those memories.

And your subjugation of the small town by your maker's former residence?

Not that it matters... I merely find it puzzling. Your present outlook is more beneficial - and your former Master held views... Not dissimilar to someone I once served.

Some time, I'll speak to you more fully about him. It's only fair that you know of my past, where I know of yours.

Then maybe being jaded does have its place, after all.

When this is over, come and see me. I have no wish to interrupt your exploration of this place, in the meantime.

No, fun's not the word I'd use in a lot of cases.

Well, I won't begrudge those with an avenue to have it. Just feels a tad counterproductive for those of us who haven't or don't wish to.

I supose it's relaxing, if nothing else.

It's a damned sham is what it is. If you want to teach the inmates about love you don't stick them in parody of it. We would have been a hell of a lot better off in some barren planet than this monstrosity.

Hell, I suppose this is what Valentine's Day is really all about.

Mine already has an... Unhealthy view of love, from what I understand. I can't say I disagree with you on that.

You have one of the vampire sisters don't you? I'm sure all the damn 'free love' must be a thorn in the side to explain. Thank god Pavi graduated before this mess.

Oh, it's not that, it's more... They loved, by virtue of their bond. But the one who made them - he seemed incapable of reciprocating much more than carnal attention.

Territorial protectiveness, at most.

I can't help but wonder how that must have affected them.

Did they know any other love before they were... turned I suppose is the technical term.

I really don't know, I'm afraid... Her file isn't all that extensive about such matters.

I'm not too surprised there. It could make all the difference in the end, even if it's buried under hundreds of years.

Right now, I'm just glad that the need to maim and kill seems to have subsided.
