( @carnagebled asked: ‘ until you came along, i had this under control. ‘ from claudia // forced proximity prompts // always accepting !! )

❝ did you? ❞ the auditorium is empty, hours passing since it was last filled with bright, interested human faces, expressions shifting through excitement, to amusement, cycling to horror and around again. the coven entertains itself, some out stalking the paris streets in hunger, while others linger below. it's only him and claudia, here, now. he walks along the edge of the front row, before slumping effortlessly into one of the audience chairs, long fingers fishing for the cigarette case from the inner pocket of his suit jacket.

❝ and what did you have under control? ❞ he does have his share of sympathy for the child vampire, for the immortality she's trapped in. though, he imagines an expression of it would come off more like pity. she's more alike to them, isn't she? vampire, more than human. not like louis.

❝ because from my perspective, you seemed lost. both of you. ❞
