ITP: Emopire doesn't like losing

[bitingcynicism]

[After the events here...

Oh look, someone is once again covered in monster blood, along with some of his own, and downing handfuls of pills as he returns to main camp, exhausted but still obviously worked up. I sure hope nobody's wandering by at this hour.]

[Clenching his fists hard.]

I can't do what I'm supposed to do here. I have to let selfish monsters like him run around because confused girls ask for a change. I can't control my own hunger or anyone else's because camp takes control of our minds. And I have a powerful vampire who thinks humans are his playthings.

I'm tired of it!

*Hand on your head*

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

... What am I supposed to do, Ebi? This is all I have.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

You pull yourself back together, keep going and find something else.

Right now, you may think it's all you have, but it's not. It's really not, okay?

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

I can't protect anyone here. Every time... I was trying to help her. Just like...

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

*Godddddd, hugs for the not!son*

You can't save everyone, alright? All you can do is try.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

That's what we're supposed to do. I'm useless here.

All I can do is kill these mindless beasts to stave off my thirst. I might as well be one of them.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

You're not useless. You have friends who care about you very much and who you make happy just by being around.

People change their purpose all the time. If you didn't want to be a Hunter anymore, you would still matter. And just because one time things didn't go perfectly, that doesn't mean you fail as a Hunter. No one is perfect all the time.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

No, being a Hunter is what I am. It's in my blood, Ichiru's blood, and I won't stop until all the vampires are gone from the world.

But here... everything is so complicated, even the rules.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

Life is full of complications though. It's not just this place.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

... I've tried to adapt, Ebi... but I made a mistake.

I'm not going to let that happen again.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

Mistakes happen, there's no avoiding them sometimes.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

You avoid them by not being stupid.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

...*sighs*

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

[Hears that.]

... Sorry. I told you not to follow me. I'm not... I need to figure out what to do about this.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

I know what we're doing about this. We're not thinking about it tonight. Tomorrow, once you've slept and had a chance to calm down.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

I... can't sleep right now, Ebi.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

What would you like to do then.

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

[Sigh. You're not going to go away, are you?]

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

*NOPES*

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

... I don't know.






I scared her.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

What did you say or do that scared her?

[bitingcynicism.livejournal.com]

I grabbed her and refused to let her go. I told her it was better if she died. My power reacted too.

I wanted her to know what she did was wrong. It was stupid.

[lipstickittoyou.livejournal.com]

...you couldn't help it though, right?
