49th Appetizer

[Accidental video]

[Rido Kuran's network device flashes on of it's own accord, showing the Pureblood in the somewhat indelicate position of being doubled over and caught in the act of having been violently sick. Beneath him, the floor is awash with the contents of his stomach, staining it a deep viscous crimson.

Clearly, his diet of blood has caught up to him in a most unpleasant way.]

Brother, is something wrong?

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

...?

[cry-reaper.livejournal.com]

What a terrible waste.

[Raising a shaky hand to his mouth, Rido's eyes turn to glare balefully at the intrusive device sitting on a nearby table.]

... 'brother'?

[He looks as if he might be sick again, but he manages to control it for the moment.]


Something... yes.

[Looking at a lengthy list of names. ]

So much blood, but I don’t see your name here… Maybe you will choose to die later in the week?

You are a very ellusive individual, and I have not been able to get ahold of you and formally induct you. However, for all intents and purposes, you are one of us now.

You look ill.

[Rido slowly pulls himself up but his attention is on the blood staining his hand and the larger pool of blood on the floor.]

... what?

[Video]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

You aren’t dying?

[Wave hello to death personified. He would be more than happy to escort you towards your final resting place.]

With their being so much blood I thought you might have been injured. What a pity you aren't.

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

Looks to be a case of food poisoning.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

... my body disagrees.

[He seems a bit confused by this.]


[ooc: ooo turnabout eh? Well he certainly can't fend her off~]

Yes. This is... unexpected. A curse?

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Poison?

[He stirs from his thoughts to look at the camera.]

This is new...

I suspect this is so.

I have been affected today, in my own way.

[He turns up the brightness on his device, allowing Rido to see his no-longer-vampiric face.]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

No... unlikely. I'm harder to kill than that...

[Video]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

You really don’t appear very difficult to kill at all right now.

Besides everything dies eventually. Maybe you will be fortunate enough to expire later.

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

[No sarcastic reply??!! That's definitely new.]

Hmm.

[Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

You're wrong. I can't die...

[Although he doesn't seem quite as assured of it at the moment.]

Besides... this City... it likes to torture, not kill.

[Video]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

Why can’t you die? You don’t have any more power than any other mortal.

What happened to you?

[Rido peers through narrowed eyes at the display for a moment before turning away to cough up a little more blood. When he looks back, his expression betrays the exhaustion he's been feeling.]

I need... I need someone to wait on me.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Is there an antidote?

[Video]

[council-king.livejournal.com]

I am not a mortal. I am a Pureblood...

[He says this as if it explains everything.]


[ooc bedtime. will tag after work tomorrow!]

The Dark Gift has been taken from me, and I am once again mortal. Thankfully, the City reverted me to the age I was at the time of my turning.

The Brotherhood take care of one another. Even if I cannot reach you, I will find someone who can. This city is becoming quite frantic as of late.

[He's simply watching this video quietly. Don't mind him.]

[cry-reaper.livejournal.com]

More's the pity. Perhaps some nice chicken soup? [She giggles.]

That always used to work for me.
