he laughs ; bright & genuine. there is something refreshing about the naivety of a young vampire. far more preferable than the brooding & power hungry , political backstabbing that he was subject to now. there is a shake of his head , amusement dancing in his tone. ❝ twilight fan , are you ?? but i am NOT royalty. prince is merely a title given to a kindred that rules over a domain — for instance , i rule over the city of tucson. ❞

cerulean hues watch her closely now. amusement melting away gradually in light of what she does & does not know of their laws. he DOES NOT mind teaching her what her sire ought to have if need be . . . so long as it means he will not have someone breaking the masquerade in his city. and one need not be that insightful to sense there might be some TENSION between her & this sire of hers. ❝ good. that is the most important of the six traditions we adhere to. be careful about hunting & don't go turning or killing any humans — that is all i ask. ❞

"I'm learning that," Lottie murmured. Pressing her lips together tentatively, she tried to deal with the feeling of lostness. The world of darkness was something foreign and new; the idea of Kindred with skeletons in their closets frightening to someone who grew up so. . . safely.

The vampire's kindness felt real especially as he explained more and more. Elysium was safe; hopefully safe from her sire. When she slept as the sun rose, she had fitful dreams of her sire coming after her, hunting her again (even if it was far different than before). Her hands rose to rub the back of her neck. "There is vampire royalty?" she queried with shock. "Like this sounds like real Twilight stuff now."

This time her gaze went to the side as the other asked how much she truly knew. Without the Blush Of Life, her cheeks remain pallid and pallor but her embarrassment grew. "I know of the Masquerade. I know not to cause problems. . . I've been inside for some time; my sire was going to tell me more 'when I was ready'." Her tone sounded a bit like a child's at that. Frustration at her ex-husband/sire clear in her displeasure.

The new vampire offers a soft smile at the sympathy in his eyes. She was lucky in some ways. Besides her toxic beginnings with her sire and grandsire. . . other vampires she's met in her short unlife have been kind. Naive to the cruelty that no doubt existed out there. "I appreciate it -- maybe one day I can say more," she quietly admits. Elysium. . . interesting name. It felt magical or. . . Latin. "What is Elysium?" she queries, the words uttered with an embarrassment that would've flushed her cheeks were she alive. "Is there-- Do I owe anything?" Money is plentiful in her wallet, thanks to Isaac. But a part of her doubts that money is what all vampires were after.
