[And Vin's probably not helping. She really has no experience in this sort of thing, showing herself off, but her body moves with a brand new instinct without her mind even being aware of it. She moves her long coat back and her clothes, form-fitting for as much freedom of movement as possible, suddenly serve a more... practical purpose.]
[he sounds more than a little pained as he deliberately stares up at the sky] It's a very nice coat. And covers up everything really nicely.
[deep breath. definitely not thinking about coats or bodies beneath coats or bodies pressed anywher--] Think about it for a minute. Are you sure you don't feel Hungry? Like there's some deep dark empty thing sitting in the pit of your stomach?
[he winces at the question, and at the look of utter confusion and fear on her face. yeah, he looked. sue him, he's human now.]
Don't know, sweetheart, but I think you've got what I have. [a pause as he searching his own thoughts, certain now that the presence that's always dogged his steps is no longer there] What I had.
A vampire? But I'm not, I don't want-- [She shakes her head, squeezing her eyes shut as that Hunger that used to be part of Thomas now urges her onward.] But if I'm the vampire, what are you?
[he pauses, thinks that through. He thought he was just human, but now he's not so sure as he turns his awareness on himself, feeling something different where the Hunger used to be, something that simmered, that felt like untapped potential]
[Alright, something to focus on. Something other than that voice in her head telling her to grab Thomas and--
No! Wrong thing!]
Okay, if you're like me then you should be feeling some kind of power. Look for one that... that... how do I describe it? One that feels... sharp, like the edge of glass. That should be tin.
[his brow furrows in concentration as he tries to find what she's describing, and a little part of Thomas is very very relieved, because it gives him something to do besides focusing on Vin. Was he like that all the time?]
[he finds what she's describing, and as he mentally pokes at that power, it sparks, seeming to burn inside him, and Thomas jumps physically in surprise]

Well... okay, Thomas always looks "interesting" but in a very different way this time.]
What?

You wouldn't happen to be feeling kind of... hungry, would you?

Hungry? Not really, I....
Actually, I'm not sure.

Okay hey let's keep the coat buttoned up. Really buttoned up.

What's wrong with my coat? I always wear it open.

An... empty thing? [She things about that for a second, placing her hands over her stomach.] I guess I... what's happening to me?
[At least she's not... posing anymore. Except that sudden look of open, frightened vulnerability might not be the best step in the right direction.]

Congratulations, you're a vampire.
