Attacking during daylight.... dammit

[charmingkrak]

Who: Eric Northman and... I hope someone else to save him before he lights on fire!
When: At around 3PM on Oct 4th
Where: Just outside of the Forestei apartments
Summary: Eric went to sleep to ground for the day instead of under his bed, mostly out of uncomfortableness with the little rapist child. And a monster decides its time for him to wake up

The yell had woken the dead tired Turk, enough to crawl out of the bed and come outside. The smell was the first thing to hit his nose, the scent of burning. Dammit, I'm supposed to protect him, I took that on as my job, and I failed. but he didn't speak the thought aloud, merely helped Toboe get Eric back under cover, slashing and kicking at the vines as they tried to grab hold again. He gave a growl each time they made another grab, calling on a Fire spell finally to burn them up. "Don't say a word, just take it so you can heal." Reno tossed his wrist out in Eric's direction, doing the first thing that instinct after his time with the vampire told him to do, as he asked Toboe to go make sure all the shades were closed.

"Can you get up the stairs, Eric?" The question asked as Reno's voice went entirely business like, Turk mode on in full force, handling what he saw as an emergency situation the way his training had taught him. He knew that in Eric's room he'd be able to keep him better protected from the sun than he could here in the entry way. "Yell at me for being a dumbass and waking up when I should have been sleeping later, feed and heal first."

He fully expected to get yelled at too, Eric could be rather independent, something Reno had figured out fairly quickly, but at this point Reno's main concern was in keeping Eric from being turned to a pile of ash. He still wasn't sure what would happen if you died here yet, and he didn't want to find out.

Toboe had no idea who Pam was, but now wasn't the time for that. He moved in and bit off the vines around his ankles. He looked up in time to see Reno coming in to help. He smiled a bit, he was worried he wouldn't have been able to get Eric inside in time.

Once they got back into the apartment, Toboe want to every window, making sure more sun couldn't get in. "Thanks Reno. I wasn't sure that I could have saved him by myself." After every window was secure, he walked back towards them and sat down. He looked at Eric worriedly. "Why were you burning like that?"

"Not now..." Eric said as he pushed away the wrist, knowing he was too weak outside to dare bring out his fangs. The last thing he wanted was to be so well burnt that it would just fall out. He just growled as he moved inside, body weak and moving like he was still tied to the ground. It hurst so BAD and yet he was able to hold back the look of pain his eyes. "Just get me somewhere dark... very dark..." he whispered, looking as they walked into the apartment. The burning stopped mostly as they got inside, but still parts of his skin were crisping over and actually turning charcoal like.

When he finally got inside he sat down, groaning as parts of his body that wasn't completely bared to the sun was crisping beneath his boxers. "Sunlight is my greatest enemy... It's considered a curse for our immortality... we gain the ability to live forever off of the life of others, never to see the sun again..." Growling his head sunk back and he leaned himself up against the wall, crunching again. Sure he was covered in dirt and disgusting, but the crisping skin was beginning to heal. "Blood... now..." he whispered, his fangs appearing again.

Reno passed Eric his wrist. He was just glad that Toboe had been there, and he said as much. "Thanks, Toboe. . .if you hadn't been here. . " he doesn't finish that sentence, he doesn't want to think of the alternative. He had come to care about Eric, he doesn't want to want to see him die, even though even he wasn't certain exactly how deep the emotions went. He wasn't certain what name to give the emotions, and he wasn't normally the type to deeply examine himself anyway.

"Take whatever you need, yo." he leaned back, letting Eric feed. "Funny thing is, don't human beings in general all live off each other in some manner or another? It's the way of things, even as bad it sucks. And trust me, I know it sucks."

Toboe looked sad for Eric. He leaned in and began licking the burned flesh on Eric's arm. Even if it looked strange in his human form, it was really just his way of trying to help Eric.

He looked at Reno naively. "Human beings can be really cruel, but they can be good sometimes too." Even after all the torment humans have put him through, at the end of the day he liked humans and would defend them.

His lips moved right over to Reno, grabbing hold of it tightly in his arms as he bit down deep. The thirst was heavy and needing, but giving a small moan as he finally fed. Finally he broke a moment, feeling the wounds tamper down with the blood intake. During daylight he didn't feed well, and coughing a few times before leaning his head back. He brought a finger to his fang and pricked it slightly, using the blood from that to help heal up the bite wounds on his arm.

"Everything can be cruel, my kind especially. Actually... in order of danger it would be... Me, Reno, and then you. Shifters are never really.. violent."

His head touched his nose for a moment, and blood began to drool down from it. "... fuck... I hate daylight..."

Reno remembered nosebleeds. . ..too well. He used to get them easily as a child due to how dry the air was in the slums was. "Pinch off the top of your sinuses, like this." Reno demonstrated. "That's how I get nosebleeds to stop, anyway. After about five minutes, they stop." He yawned widely. He'd be sleepy for a bit after the feeding, then in about an hour, when the blood Eric had fed on replaced itself, he'd be fine. He was used to this by now.

"Somehow, I think the closet might be a better idea." the words were wry, slightly teasing. "Better fending off Chico than killer plants bent on making you die, ne? Most Chico will do is molest you in your sleep." Reno had had personal experience with that but. . .he'd rather deal with that than die.
