    ►►► DORMITORIES;
[ Since the departure of her best friend, the Back Alley Alliance dwindled down to a single individual by the name of Satsuki Yumizuka. While she does toy with the idea of rebuilding, maybe it was time to hang up her hat on those days of popularity (she's never been popular, let's get that straightened out) to begin a new one. At least she thought that was a good idea up until her boyfriend (can she even call him that anymore?) killed her.

So despite how awkward life has been for her, Satsuki makes more of an appearance in her room (2-11) in order to possibly meet her roommates as well as the regular hallways. She doesn't outright greet anyone and instead behaves like a shy high school student. Well, she does look the part at least? ]

    ►►► FLOOR 27;
[ There's no point in letting a lot of research go to waste or so Satsuki thinks. Sion left a significant chunk of documentation around, so she'll be sitting in the lab today with one of them trying her best to mix the chemicals. Unfortunately, Satsuki is no alchemist so there may be an explosion or some kind of gas flooding the floor briefly. At least she seems very apologetic for it! ]

    ►►► FLOOR 92;
[ A pyramid is something Satsuki might have not visited recently if it weren't for the disappearance of her bestie. Since Sion had a great interest in this place, she can only wander here in hopes of discovering something that she can take back to her room to remind her of it. Not much of a collector, Satsuki will be overlooking the golden treasures in favor of more simplistic things. ]

    ►►► FLOOR 32;
[ A floor with supernatural powers disabled doesn't attract much attention save for the fact there are several animals here people hunt for food. Satsuki is one of those people and while she can hunt on other floors, here it felt better. Whether it was the mystical powers of the floor keeping her vampirism under check or the way blood tastes when she's like this, it's enough to keep her focused on her goals. Remain true to her human roots the best she can, how fortunate she is that this floor can do that for her. If anyone comes across her on this floor though, she'll likely be draining the blood of a rabbit into a couple containers from the kitchen. Nasty, huh? ]

Comments

[concept_killer]

You're definitely welcome. As long or as much as you'd like.

[Is this embarrassing? Because he still hasn't let go.]

[yumizuka]

[ If it is, she's not saying anything. Instead, her head will incline to rest against his shoulder. ]

So... what happened?

[ Maybe it was better she didn't know, but she's not the type to spend her time listening in on others (that's rude) or reading the terminals. ]

[concept_killer]

[He honestly wasn't fond of recalling it himself. But Satsuki, in his opinion, deserved to know.]

They did experiments on my body and mind, I guess. I didn't really have any control over myself even though I said I did. That's how deep it was.

[yumizuka]

That's horrible.

[ Stating the obvious, but with it comes her fingers tightening down on him just a bit. Although to be fair, a bit from her is more pressure than a normal human. ]

That means it wasn't your fault?

[concept_killer]

[Ow, ow. Internalizing a little pain. But being with a vampire means these kind of things.]

Yes but I don't think it's right to throw off the blame like that.

[yumizuka]

[ She just wants to really hold him enough to feel it.... ]

The blame? I can't be mad at you if you had no hand in it. I, um, I could have run away.

[ There should have been at least a second round to be fair. ]

[concept_killer]

[Is this some kind of claim of possession?]

I can't really force you to think anything but as long as you're not mad, which you're not, I feel a lot better.

[Now he can try to let go, if Satsuki will let him.]

[yumizuka]

[ Just let her sink her fangs in just a little. A pinch and it'll all be over. No, she's scared and wants to never let go. ]

It'd be unfair to be mad at you for it... [ Oh, his arms are moving away?? Why? ] Did I say something wrong?

[concept_killer]

Huh? [Oh...] N-No. Just...don't you think that's a little embarrassing in public? Here...

[He holds out his hand.]

[yumizuka]

[ Now that he's brought it up, super embarrassing... ]

Oh, you're right. [ Looking down at his hand curiously as she steps back. ] Um, is there something in it? I don't understand.

[concept_killer]

Take my hand. That's what normal people who are dating do.

[You can still be normal, Satsuki!!]

[yumizuka]

[ Nothing says normal like stabbing your girlfriend! ]

O-Oh! Did we go too far with the hu--[ Just cutting herself off to grab at his hand. At least she's mindful enough this time to hold it gently. ] Like this, right?

[concept_killer]

[Nothing says normal like wanting to suck out your boyfriend's blood and making him a servant???]

Exactly like that. See, isn't that nice?

[yumizuka]

[ Someday he'll let his guard down and stare into those beautiful eyes of her's... ]

Your hand is warm. [ That's not weird to say, is it? ] Ugh, that was weird to say, wasn't it?!

[ Dying of embarrassment. That will be the third way he kills her. ]

[concept_killer]

I don't think it was weird as much as...cliche? [Sorry, Satsuki.]

If you want to keep your hands warm though, I suppose I don't mind doing that.

[yumizuka]

Cliche? Oh... [ She's bad at this dating thing. ]

I think it gets really cold here a lot.

[concept_killer]

If it's bad enough, I don't mind sharing my cloak with you. Would that be enough to help out?

[yumizuka]

It'd be like wearing your high school jacket! [ Speaking of cliches. ]

[concept_killer]

That's not really a yes or a no.

[Shush, he's just as bad at this.]

[yumizuka]

I'd like that or I could make a cloak to match you! [ Oh god. ]

[concept_killer]

Why don't we start with the first one and work on the second one?

[yumizuka]

Okay. [ The sidekick has to grow up a little before she can be a cool hero, huh? ]

[concept_killer]

[Give him a second to take off his. Thankfully, no shenanigans are required.]

Here...

[yumizuka]

Come on, you have to drape it over me and make sure it's secure--er, that's what I've read at least. Is that a later step?

[ How to fail at relationships the Satsucky story. ]

[concept_killer]

[Satsucky is both of them. BOTH.]

Really? Well...

[He can't argue with that. He throws it over her shoulders and has to lean in close to make sure it latches around her neck properly. Don't get any silly ideas.]
