[knows]

I didn't say that.

[ananym]

I haven't heard a "yes" yet.

[knows]

Stop being an ass and give it here.

[ananym]

[ alucard smiles before handing over the bottle. ]

[knows]

[Trevor is very tempted to drink straight from the bottle and pass the rest back, but he also needs to prove a point. So instead he retrieves two mugs, pours them and pushes one to Alucard.]

So are you still brooding or have you found an actual place to stay?

[ananym]

[ ah. he's been caught. ]

I don't want to live in an empty house. I cannot.

1/2

[knows]

[Trevor stares at him.

And then stares at him some more.]

[knows]

...You know houses stop being empty when someone moves in?

[ananym]

Is that an invitation, Belmont?

[knows]

[It absolutely wasn't, but now that he's asked he can't just say no. Fucking Alucard, this must have been his plan the entire time.]

If it'll get you to stop brooding.

[ananym]

Hm.

I'm not so sure you're the man for the job.

[knows]

You're acting like it's hard to give you a kick up the arse whenever you're in a mood.

[ananym]

Well, Sypha's not here to help.

[ but he seems chagrined. he hadn't meant to bring her up. ]

[knows]

[...]

Well, we've made it this far without her.

[ananym]

You think so?

[knows]

[He takes a deep swig in lieu of answering immediately.]

Maybe it'll be a little bit easier together.

[ananym]

. . . Perhaps it will be.

[knows]

So finish your drink and you can grab your stuff.

[Privately he doubts there is any, but it'll give Alucard time to pull himself together.]

[ananym]

All right. I will be prompt.

[knows]

I know you will.

[Otherwise he'll get to lord it over Alucard that he got scared of living inside and ran away.]
