[Elena has on her serious business face this Halloween. She's still showing slight signs of paleness from what was another bout of 'sickness' but she's clearly strong enough to be out of the clinic and back in her own apartment.]It turns out the 'illness' I had before came back - unfortunately, I found out it's not caused by bad food or a nasty

[She's not even going to bother touching on how bothered she is by Elena's use of the word violate, although her expression might show that she's concerned, almost frightened.]

What do you mean when you say it's more than just your blood or your health?

[Elena's eyes turn slightly aside. She's aware from her previous conversations with this woman that she's a vampire - and the fact that there are vampires here, and notably polite ones, is exactly why she hasn't labelled it a 'vampire' yet.]

There were...dreams.

[neurotoxins]

Dreams where it took something more than just blood from you?

[morethanafour]

[She averts her eyes slightly and clears her throat with a well-meaning cough.]

Well...not...it... someone I know. And...it wasn't exactly...unwilling but. It... [Her brow furrows as she tries to come up with the words.] It was still...taking advantage of me. Of my emotions - and...dreams...so it could feed undisturbed.

[neurotoxins]

I...see. [This disturbs her more than a little.] Thank you for the information.

[She nods, though looks puzzled by this conversation and Ivy's lack of input.]

I...apologize, this sounds exceptionally familiar to me.

[morethanafour]

[Her brow furrows, her expression slipping into sympathy.]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[video | private]

[neurotoxins]

There's no reason for you to apologize. I'm sorry you're going through this, I wish I could offer some assistance, but there's not much I can say. [Especially considering the fact that she never could protect herself from it.]

[morethanafour]

Wait...do you know who's doing this to me?

[video | private]

[neurotoxins]

No. [Though she does have some suspicions.] However, I...went through something similar in my own world.

[video | private]

[morethanafour]

Oh...

[Elena's brow furrows. She looks very troubled for Ivy.]

I'm...I'm so sorry.

[video | private]

[neurotoxins]

There's no reason for you to feel pity for me.

[video | private]

[morethanafour]

[She shakes her head.]

Not pity - sympathy - because I went through the same thing.

[Elena glances away.]

Sorry if that offends you - but I won't take it back.

[She looks up and smiles a little, questioningly.]

[video | private]

[neurotoxins]

I hope, for your sake, you have not gone through exactly the same thing.

[She doesn't look at her.]

I'm sorry.

[video | private]

[morethanafour]

I didn't mean-

[She places her face in a hand, sighing at the mess she's made of this conversation.]

No...I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought it up.
