[ Ah, well. What's this now? This is Vlad sourly sipping at a glass of gin at the bar. He's hunched over and silent and staring straight ahead like the bar itself has wronged him deeply. ]
After his talk (also known as the only by the loosest definition successful interrogation) with the Avatars, he's traipsing back into wander and investigation mode when he comes across this sulky-ass gentleman. He considers talking to him, then considers not talking to him, and then figures it can't hurt to make more connections. ]
[ WHY DID HE CHOOSE TO SULK AT THE BAR WHERE PEOPLE COULD SHOW UP AND TRY TO TALK TO HIM, THIS WAS SUCH A DUMB IDEA
he opens his mouth to say something, but then thinks better of it. Eventually, he settles on a hand gesture: wiggling his flat hand side to side in an "eh, kind of" gesture. ]
[ Hey, here's a shoulder pat. Hahahahahahaha. Pat pat.
He has no idea what happened to you but it's clearly just made him a little sulky, which means in the grand scheme of things, it can't be that bad. It's clearly not had the other in a particularly talkative mood though, apparently. ]
Well, hope things look up for you soon, hm? Don't get run down so fast.
[ He sighs heavily and takes another drink. He forces himself to sit upright and offer a stiff nod. That's not quite it, really, but it's close enough. ]
Alright, no pity it is then. Just the well wishes of a man who dropped by. [ He pats the bar! ] Either way, drinking alone while sulking is sad. How about a proper chat over a normal drink another time?
[ He huffs, annoyed at the general circumstances, but smooths out his expression to--well, not a grin, but something at least neutral, that doesn't look like he's mad or anything.
[ Fantastic. He'll hold you to that, big guy! Opposed to Vlad's neutral expression, Steven's got an easygoing smile. He gives him another light pat before walking away, smell ya later. ]
[ Vlad pilots Steven dickfirst to his room, taking them up to the loft bed. And I'm gonna make this fade to black because i will physically shuffle off this mortal coil if i have to write a sex scene
but i will say this about it:
Vlad isn't necessarily bad, he's just rough. He'd leave scratches. And he'd try to top.
[ Lisa I hate this so much but given how Vlad's been a shitmonger about it Steven sure as hell is going to give him trouble for trying to top especially with how you HAVE BEEN HANDLING HIM!! Maybe a blowjob bitch ]
[ i will allow handjob, but vlad would NEVER get on his knees and sully his mouth like that. no, if he's going to fool around with someone, he's going to tower above them and make eye contact the whole time, so they know who's boss here. ]
[ I'm crying Lisa it's just going to be them bickering and grabbing each other's dicks? Does this count as a hatefuck? A hatejob??? A hateful handjob it is ]
[ Hello Steven's in the office, messing around with the place, apparently just... looking around. Don't mind him or whatever. Except it's Vlad so he's about to start minding real hard in 2.0 seconds. But it's fine.
Have a smile when you show up here Vlad. It's like nothing is wrong. ]
[ On a normal day, this is where it would end. A simple acknowledgement of another human being. But unfortunately, today he has this disgusting compulsion to be nice. So with a resigned heave of his shoulders, he adds on: ]
But fine, if you're offering. I'm doing a bit of searching around for anything, any clues and all that I might've missed. Especially since those books with the indecipherable writing is all very strange, isn't it? The sooner we solve these mysteries, the sooner we could possibly leave.
[ He already knows those books/writings are irrelevant. It's just convenient! ]
Ah, yes, of course. I'd be more than happy to help you decode the books, if that's what you wish to do.
[ Vlad doesn't see much point in doing so but if this is how Steven wants to waste his time, then apparently he's going to fucking help him as hard as he can with it. Plus, it can't be that hard. After all, Vlad is very smart. ]
Yeah, it's at least something to fill in the time if nothing else.
[ It's just too bad that apparently, there's no key to decoding them -- and in fact, they're not even that important. Turns out they really were there just for atmosphere, probably.
But it all works out just fine doesn't it! Since Steven takes this opportunity, shuffling around like he's doing the same.
Until abruptly, a hand touches Vlad's head from the side, acting as a hold to keep him in place while he aims to jab a kitchen knife right into his neck from the opposite side. Choo choo it's violent murder time! He'll pull at that knife to leave a bleeding gash behind rather than stabbing and leaving it in there, if it happens then it's doubtful Vlad could reasonably stab him back but, hey. You know.
Steven doesn't even say anything? Silent, but also just the aura... ]
Vlad makes a very inelegant choking sound as the knife tears into him and caves inwards, crumpling over the desk. He barely manages to look over his shoulder at the offending slaughterer and croaks out: ]
[ He's smiling about it, like he can't help himself.
And for hilarity, and also because I got reminded it's 100% Effort Week, Steven fixes his grip on the knife and goes in for a second stab in the throat. There is just no mercy here whatsoever. ]
[ Vlad crumples under the force of the stab, blood pouring out his throat and all over himself as he falls to the ground. It is all he can do in his final dying moments to look up at Steven's face and see that grin. ]
The expression melts off once Vlad is down, though, instead simply becoming quietly contemplative. Well, he's done it, and he really could just leave him here... but he and Law had a conversation about how Vlad is, and how he could very well come back to try to one up them yet again. That there needed to be a more, let's say, permanent way to keep him down.
God, he still really wants to break every single bone one by one from his fingertips to his arms and the same for his legs for setting Law on fire, but he's restrained.
(I guess it also counts as revenge for killing Steven? Though we're it not for the whole Law thing, he wouldn't have bothered with that.)
And now He will go about with the initial plan (he just needed Vlad to be out cold first but something told him he has to murder twice), which effectively consists of unceremoniously taking Vlad outside, wrapping him up in very heavy coat(s???) that would be weighted and troublesome when wet, anchoring the pockets with stones and rubble. He works fast, he watched and practically counted the seconds to how long it took for Law to revive. He's getting it done before Vlad can fully get back up and retaliate.
And then effectively rolling him out into the blood pool lmao goodbye! Maybe it won't keep him down forever, but it's close enough! ]
