Hello there, stranger.

Hello my lucky charm. You look...amazing.

Bet you say that to all the girls.

Hardly. You smell different.

Funny story. I guess Lucifer fired me.

I'm free.

Are you now?

[Locked]

Where can I meet you?

Yes. It's amazing.

[[Locked]]

I'm staying at a little hotel *HERE*. I want to see you so bad.

You know what they say - whatever you're looking for is always in the last place you look.

Sorry. I've been kenneled the past few times and now I'm enjoying chasing my tail.

That's a pity. I was hoping to sit in on some more fun.

Want to chase someone else's tail?

What do you have in mind?

How about a private game of poker?

I'm pretty sure someone has warned you not to play with Strigoi who... you know what? Sure. Yes go.

I'm hungry. Don't worry. I won't turn you.

Everyone's warned me about pretty much everything.

What good is living without a little chaos thrown in?

You better not turn me. Can you imagine what a pain in the ass that would be?

We don't create familial bonds. Not like it use to. I'll see you soon.

Pam is gonna beat your ass and I'm gonna eat Good & Plenty while she does it.

She knows it's unwise to bite a Strigoi right? How is she?

Siblings fight. You bit her first. You're lucky Godric was more concerned about her than just ripping both your legs off.

Your tailor would have really been pissed.

So what's the play now, AR?

It was a calculated risk, but no risk no reward.

~~Get the hell out of dodge?~~ I'm not sure yet, to be honest.

I don't know. The numbers on that one seem kind of dodgy. Pam's older than you. Godric's older than God. Seems like the risk of you getting permanently dead ought to outweigh your temporary freedom.

But what do I know? Meyer's the numbers guy.

That's not like you. You know the game you're playing before you start and you know your next move ten moves ahead.

Please do not make say the 'you'll never take me alive' bit? It gets tiresome.

I had to make my play. There are dozens out there, probably now hundreds. I...Ambition is one of things that fell by the wayside.

Next time I'm going to plant you in holy ground.

Don't be anti-Semitic. All I ask. Does that work on my sort?

Don't play semitic semantics.

Yes. Holy ground doesn't necessarily mean Christian. Articles of faith work better at repelling your current state than your last one.

...is that why I couldn't be around Harry? *shakes head and looks a little uncomfortable* What other weaknesses do we have? Do I have have?

Strigoi are bad with items of faith. It doesn't have to be a cross or a Star of David. Any symbol that someone believes in can work to repel you.

You're more fragile than you know. That's a bad position to be in. You know that right?

Maybe you can't feel for others but your own self-preservation ought to have you reconsidering going back to how you were. At least then you knew your limits, you knew your weaknesses and your strengths.

What you don't know can get you killed.

Arnold.

Pam?

My progeny is alive.

She will heal thanks to my maker.

I'm sorry. She bit me and I was w- Good. What's the play here now?

There is no play. Can you feel me calling you? I know you don't feel like you have to answer my summons but you should get used to this feeling.

I will never stop calling you. You are mine. You are my progeny and I will never release you. Do you understand? I will call you until one of us is truly dead.

Is that what's wrong with me?

Something is wrong with me, I get...flashes. Lingering. This isn't, not emotions. Just... nothing.

Nothing.
