Did you think I'd changed my mind?

You don't have to. Honestly, Tim, it's alright.

I admit I have a difficult time understanding why he's so bothered; surely he was raised a Christian, as was I. We may not be the best examples of the faith, but still.

More to the point I don't know how anyone who has known you longer than five minutes could fail to recognise how strongly you feel.

[holyposition]

No. I’m sorry. I don’t want to project all of my problems with him onto you, I’m just shaken up.

He’s bothered because he can’t stand that I answer to something other than him. He’s a control freak.

[mygoodsir]

I understand.

I had noticed that, yes. But you cannot control another man and expect him to truly live.

[holyposition]

Exactly.

Thank you for understanding. It means a lot to me.

[mygoodsir]

I try my best.

Now, don't mistake understanding for approval. I do still wish you'd not make yourself a target for angry vampires.

Do you think he's alright? Armand, that is. He did not look well.

[holyposition]

I've been attacked by an angry vampire once before. I know it's serious. But I believe that helping him be caught before he does it is worth the risk.

I don't know. I doubt anyone will, before he's caught.

[mygoodsir]

My dear, brave Tim.

Than I do hope they find him. I'd hate to find that this is something that may afflict them all.

[holyposition]

I'm not trying to worry anyone. I know I'm just a man, not a comic book hero. But I can't sit and do nothing. I did that for too long back home.

Let's hope it's not spreadable.

[mygoodsir]

Yes. I understand. This place allows us to be who we want to be, perhaps.

Precisely my worry. Although we've seen no evidence of such thus far. I think that I'm just used to looking for such things.

[holyposition]

I'll let you know if I hear anything about it.

And I'll be home in two minutes. Would you lay down with me?

[mygoodsir]

Thank you.

Of course. I may demand some ah, what would you call it? Cuddling.

[holyposition]

That's always included.

[mygoodsir]

What a bargain.

I'll see you shortly.
