He returns from loss [Spam for Claire]
In the earlier hours after the day of drunkenness a figure appeared in front of a door he had claimed within the time construct of the barge mere months ago but, for him a century had passed. The vampire stood outside his room, unable to lift his arm to turn the door knob in fear that the weight of such an effort would be too great. The vampire's head tipped at the slightest of angle downwards, his face awash with a melancholy that teetered on the edge of breaking into one that weeps freely.
And still he lingers.
"I suffer, Father, I suffer and I wander; I know nothing, and all I once knew seems illusory! I have nothing, Father. My senses are not even a memory. I have nothing here at all."
Her voice was as fresh in his mind as it were the day he had heard the ghost speak to him. They were words he would hold with himself for the rest of his damned existence. His beloved, Claudia, unable to pass and unable to rest was destined to wander on the plains between. It was completely his fault.
He would not stand in this room. After he had broken his vow never to give any other the dark gift, the vampire had longed for death. He did not wish for forgiveness and most definitely not the chance to return to this place in some poor quest for redemption. What could this existence possibly offer a creature such as him? Be it some cruel joke that he must linger in the place where he had shared with his beloved, and now his second love he had given the dark gift to would travel the dark road as well.
Louis could not possibly stand it another second. Silently, he stepped away from his room, his footfalls unheard in the corridor like a pale ghoul that haunted the cemeteries of Lafayette. He found a room somewhere on a floor beyond and entered it, finding the darkest corner within to keep himself to and sit silently on the floor.
ooc: Louis has returned from his canon-update from the later half of 1999. For anyone who reads the books he has just made Merrick and has gone into the sun NOT to be revived by Lestat and David. So yay for Louis knowing about modern things... boo for him being UBER depressed again. :( He's hanging out in Claire's room until further notice.
And still he lingers.
