((It just makes things soo much easier. xp ))
He followed after, waiting out Naraka's piece with an unreadable expression. That hadn't taken long. This one certainly didn't waste any time, did he? And now Vlad knew what this was all about.... Not precisely what he'd been expecting, and he bristled faintly at being called into question.
He let out a slow hiss, a glint of possessiveness in his red eyes. "She's mine." So far as he was concerned, that was all the reason he needed, and all the justification. "I fail to see what business it is of yours what I do with girl."
"If you're after an explanation for the scratches, well..perhaps I got carried away. That time." He grinned darkly. "And she hardly seemed to mind at the time."

(( it's so true! ))
Naraka turns to him, looking a little dark himself. "Yours.... do you understand what it means to be possessed? Have you ever been someone's pet? Owned? It is my business because I have, and I never want to see anyone else in the same position as I've been. Even if you are her master, I beg of you, don't be so cruel! It doesn't take much to leave someone irreversably twisted, especially someone so sensitive as your girl. If you continue to go on, you'll kill her slowly until there's nothing left but a shell. Whether she seemed to mind to you or not, she's very troubled. What can I do? What do you want? If there's something you want, maybe we could make some sort of trade or agreement."

((Yaaay, fire alarms at odd hours >.>. Sorry.))
"You beg? Keeping to old habits, then?" He sneered nastily, mocking. Oh, wasn't this just touching? And so very, very amusing, if a bit aggravating. "Oh, please! She's hardly going to die from little games. And what do you have that I could possibly want?" Hah! He was doing quite well as he was.

(( oh glee!))
"I never begged," he replies, bearing a fang. Trying to keep his anger bottled up is very difficult, and he's beginning to lose his grip on it in a hurry. "I probably have nothing. I don't mean she's going to die physically. I mean she's going to die emotionally."

"Ooh. What was it you did, then?" He was grinning again, finding this absolutely delightful. He tossed his spear from one hand to the other, chuckling. "As though she wasn't already. All alone, no one to make her feel anything at all. But not any longer...she feels now, because of me."

Nar gives him a quelling look. He wasn't going to give this person the satisfaction of teasing him. He can see very well that this isn't going to work, and he's only making things worse. Without a word, he turns back around, and starts to meander towards his bottle.

He wasn't put off at all. If anything, the silence just encouraged him. And picking on Naraka gave him a lovely way of covering up that he was actually thinking. Maybe. Not as though he'd ever admit it.
Vlad laughed and turned to follow after with an almost dancelike step, moving to stop the other vampire with the shaft of his spear. "Going so soon?"

"Yes, I'm going," he replies softly, stopping when the spear comes in his way, and looking to Vlad until he lets him pass. "I didn't come to discuss my past, or what I did. And if you really think you're doing so well by her, then I don't know how I can explain to you what I mean. You won't understand until she's gone."

Something slipped, and the grin and a bit of the arrogance with it. The spear dropped out of Naraka's way, too, and Vlad brought it back close to himself, leaning on it once more. Something about the finality of that last statement had gotten to him, apparently. He fell quiet for a moment, for once, dropping his games in exchange for a certain amount of dignity.

Naraka begins to move past him, knowing that he needs to end this now. But a thought brings him back. He stops and looks back to the thoughtful vampire, and says, "I'd forgotten. I had something for you, but I left it at home. I wasn't really thinking about it when I came out to talk to you. I thought it would amuse you. Perhaps I'll send it along with Iden, if she ever comes back. Good evening. I hope everything turns out well." He wonders if there's anything else he wanted to say, but among the many many many swear words and curses and things he could rain down on his head, there's nothing.

Vlad quirked an eyebrow, wordlessly curious. But he couldn't do with staying entirely serious, it simply didn't suit him for anyone to know what was going on underneath the exterior. His mouth turned up in a grin again, and he shrugged. "Perhaps she will. She does what she wants, that one."
He stayed there, leaning on the spear, and looked up at the sky. He'd done enough following for the night.

Nar fixes him with an unreadable stare, and then continues on his way. He can see Iden waiting under the tree, but doesn't know what he could tell her. He wishes he could appologize for how badly he's botched what he came out to do, but now doesn't seem the time. He picks up the bottle that has been waiting for him on the ground, and makes his way back home.

Iden perked hopefully to see Naraka returning, but was disappointed when he simply went on home. Whether it was good or bad or what she had no idea, but she was glad to see that apparently nothing awful had happened. It was something, at least.
She'd have to pester Drac later. Not that he'd say a damn thing.

((Stab-happy tonight? XD
Mm, seems it. But yuss, headed off to sleeps some, as it's very nearly 4, and I've finally spent the last of my coherence, I think. I can't even scrounge up a decent response to your PM xD. My mind's just not coming back from its wanderings this time.
Ra-hrr, I suppose it's goodnight then! And sleep well yourself, whenever it gets late and you go to sleepsers too :3.))
