Greetings, Master Tepes.

If my calculations are correct, the Snow Moon has waxed, and soon will wane back in my world, which signals the coming of my fourteenth year of life.

Now is hardly the time to celebrate, but I hope you will join me for more proper festivities come our return to the Hathaway ship.

[reposing]

Ms. Sullivan,

I would be delighted and honored to attend the celebration of your fourteenth year. In what way do you normally celebrate the day of your birth?

There is always room to celebrate such an important day. Please do not be concerned with that.

[grunehexe]

Were it my world, there were rituals I would need host on the full moon’s ascendency, as well as a banquet, and offerings in honor of the day... but I have attempted to tailor such things to the more modern mix of people we have here and simply have a gathering. Your attendance, and hopefully enjoyment, would be all I ask.

I will prepare something for you to be able to join the toast.

[reposing]

I will certainly be there, without question. And I will arrive with something for you. I insist.

That is incredibly thoughtful of you. Thank you.

[grunehexe]

Well, I can hardly refuse if you insist.

[and really, what girl doesn’t enjoy presents???]

I would be a poor host not to, you are welcome.

Alucard? It's Lucina. [ In case that wasn't obvious, apparently. ] Do you have a moment to speak?

[reposing]

Of course, Lucina. What can I do for you?

[heritors]

[ There's a pause. A slow inhale of breath, but when Lucina speaks it's just as composed as she had been moments ago. ] ... It seems that the guilds were not finished with their transfers.

[ Quietly, dignified, with little need to beat around the bush— ] I'll be moving to a new guild, sometime later this evening. I ... wished to say my goodbyes, so to speak.

[reposing]

I see.

[Alucard knows that these friendships are not eternal. Nothing really is. Everything fades, everything perishes and becomes dust.

But it is nice to have, for a time.]

Then I am grateful you thought of me. May I see you in person one last time?

[heritors]

[ ( Perhaps with more time here, she would have been able to convince him otherwise. )

He can't see it, but she nods. ] Of course. I'm currently at my quarters, but if you'd like to meet somewhere else...?

[reposing]

[Warmly:] No, that would be fine. I'll be sure to arrive as soon as I can.

[as promised, he does arrive, and fairly quickly at that. knock knock, it's yo vampire buddy]

[heritors]

[ The door opens quickly enough — the belongings in her room have been packed into two bags ( she never did have long to get settled ), and all that's left are the bare essentials.

Her uniform's been hung up neatly by the door, too — on her is a blue ALASTAIR cloak from times past. ] Alucard. [ But she smiles warmly upon sight of him ( today is not a day for mourning ). ] Come in. I don't have much, but—

[reposing]

Shh.

[Smoothly, Alucard kneels down before his friend, taking her hand. To the back of it, a tender kiss is placed.]

I wished to thank you in person for your kindness and friendship. I will not keep you, but you must know that I value you, as do many others.

And for good reason.

Alucard,

I have finished my final work from Hanabira. Are you available at the moment?

[reposing]

Hello, Rohan.

I am. I would love to see the finished version. Where shall I meet you?

[opensup]

I can bring it to your quarters. It's on my pad, so it's no great struggle for me to travel with it.

[ and, also, his space is a bit of a mess right now to an embarrassing degree. such is what happens when he loses himself in his work. ]

Just let me know when I may come to you.

[reposing]

Stop by this evening. I will be free. Simply knock.

[opensup]

Oh, did I disturb your sleep? My apologies. I will come by then.

[ he won't respond any further, but when late evening comes he'll walk to alucard's quarters and knock. the pad is slung over his shoulder by its strap and he stays uncomfortably still as he waits. ]

[Dhampir big-little brother is here.]

Your notoriety has increased.

[reposing]

[godddddddddddd]

I noticed.

[damnpire]

They may try to kill you on sight. Are you able to get back to the hotel?

[reposing]

They won't be able to.

Yes. Do you wish to meet there?

[damnpire]

The sun will come out sometime. [Whatever Left Hand says, Alucard won't be able to hear, but he can hear D say, lowly:] Quiet.

I was just curious if you were able without repercussions. It won't be much of a sanctuary if you can't reach it.

It may not be even if you do.

[reposing]

Even when the sun comes out, it will not kill me. [whatever lefty!!]

I can reach it. I would be surprised they would know to follow a wolf.

[damnpire]

Don't underestimate them. [It's not delivered as much of a scold at all, but maybe it is a bit.] When you can, come to the hotel.
