[quickwhip]

Tell her... what?

[ Uh???? ]

[cryptsleeper]

[TREVOR.]

What do you think?!

[Exasperated at the Belmont? That's back to normal.]

[quickwhip]

[ HE'S NOT SURE??? ]

That I... fell in the pool?

[cryptsleeper]

The kissing part!

[quickwhip]

What? Why?!

[cryptsleeper]

Because she'll find out somehow, so it's better to be honest?

[quickwhip]

[ Everything is going TOO FAST?? ]

It's... just a kiss? I don't even know why I did it. Pool of desire and all.

[cryptsleeper]

[ALUCARD JUST. Throws his hands in the air.]

That isn't how the pool even works and you know that was the first time I've had that happen, correct?

[quickwhip]

Had... what happen?

[cryptsleeper]

The first time I ever fell into a pool. [Alucard's response is dry, and it's followed by a groan.]

Been kissed, Belmont.

[quickwhip]

[ ... ]

Are you fucking serious?

[cryptsleeper]

[Alucard finally just. Stops. And stares, dead eyed.]

Yes.

[quickwhip]

[ Oh, that's... yeah. ]

Shit.

[ And he just... sighs to himself, hand rubbing against the back of his neck. ]

Alright, humor me... why do you need to tell Sypha about that?

[cryptsleeper]

[Congratulations Trevor. You not only smooched the dhampir you made him feel a lot of emotions right after it.]

It...feels correct? I can't explain it.

[quickwhip]

Alucard, it...

[ Fuck, how does he go about this?? ]

...it's a kiss. It's... not a big deal.

[cryptsleeper]

[Feelings are the worst.]

She'll still know, Trevor. Eventually. And will want to be included in at least knowing things.

[quickwhip]

[ Jesus Christ ]

What are you going to tell her then? That I fell into a pool and kissed you? What if that bothers her?

[cryptsleeper]

Well, yes. That was what I was going to say.

[But he has a point about it bothering Sypha. Alucard pauses, considering.]

Then it's something we address.

[quickwhip]

We?

[ Excuse you?? ]

What we is this? If you kissed Sypha for whatever reason, you think I'd want to know?

[cryptsleeper]

I meant myself and Sypha with that we, Belmont.

[Jeez.]

Would you?

[quickwhip]

No. I don't want to know that.

[ And Alucard might feel trickles of confliction amidst the annoyance as he goes about walking off then. CLEARLY NOT WANTING TO DISCUSS THIS. ]

You don't have to share everything with each other. You want to know who I've fucked, too?

[cryptsleeper]

[Wow. They managed to be nice for two seconds and this.

Alucard groans. He wants to go back to the water and kissing now, thank you.]

Fine. I'll stop.

[quickwhip]

Jesus Christ this can't be happening.

[ Words he mumbles to himself, cloak and everything else dripping around him, he runs a hand over his face before he turns to look back to the blond. ]

Look. I'm sorry I was your first kiss and that it happened like that. I don't know why I did it but... [ God what does he want to say? ] ...I don't know. I'm going to die anyways so just forget about it. Your blood also smells really good.

[cryptsleeper]

[That's.

That's a lot in a few sentences.

So, easy one first:]

I'm going to teach you how to feed properly in the near future. Remind me.

[There. The rest? The rest is harder.]

I think I wanted that for a while.

[quickwhip]

[ Excuse you!! ]

What do you mean properly? Ciaran hasn't died on me whenever I drink from him.

[ But that other part is just... oh and Trevor has... no idea how to respond to it. ]
