An Update.

[flambeauvivant]

It's been pointed out to me that six months is a fairly long absence and that I have returned only with a collection of random thoughts and moods

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with you. Its always a pleasure to read it, you know that, right?

Of course we remember all that. We have no dusty vampire brains but clever mortal brains!

I would have sent Nicolas to Hades a long time ago. ^^

Ah, Armand...

Hm, poor Ian, and you are still his candy man, eh?

Well, wanna pull the trigger or is it better to wait and see?

[flambeauvivant]

Thank you, sweetheart. I do realize that I am little haphazard, so it seems right to say it in some order.

Ah, you say that, but you read the little differences, hm? I told you I'd been thinking. It's not just you or Lexia who have been talking about change. I've thought about little else in some time.

Then you do not know how to love.

Yes, Armand. Ah, for Armand. And making Armand say ahhhh.

Yes, now and again. Nothing else can fix it and I do like Ian as you know. I rather miss those long nights on the beach with him, gazing at the stars.

I may have done that already.

[seraph_tenshi]

About little else? What could that be?

Love means also, let it go.

Making Armand say ahhhh, sounds for me perfect right now...

And as you know, I do like Ian as well. *rawr*

Oh??? Tell me about it!

[flambeauvivant]

Change. About meeting the past with a different attitude. Not being shackled to it. I thought I was good at that, but the more I think about it, the more I realize that it's still with me. It holds me back.

That's not letting him go. That's obliterating him.

Why else am I not getting out of bed?

Something happened this summer.

That’s a whole lot to take in.

Bless Louis for taking it upon himself to Vampire-sit Nicholas, especially after those back to back stunts. I’m glad you got to see him on his birthday.

I’m glad that despite everything going down with the Talamasca Lexia and Ian are holding up, that worries me though that they might be in danger considering how close they are.

Are you at least making that home your own? It’s good to have some nostalgia every now and then but don’t hold yourself up with being with the ones you love either.

[flambeauvivant]

Ain't it just. And there's more.

Yes, Louis has taken this burden on. I trust him to be Nicki's jailor like no-one else. He will do what he must and keep that little bastard away from me.

My thoughts too. These extremists may well target any mortals they think are under our thrall. This is one reason I drop by as often as I can.

It's just a place like any other. I don't feel it to be home, but it's close enough to Louis and it means I'm not avoiding this old haunt like I have done for so long.

[sr_kalika]

Just finished reading it as I was walking home. Is Vincent a little satisfied?

I’m sure. I know you still care or you wouldn’t be doing this.

Any idea if the superior general knows? Does she care or is she letting the issue slide. I’m glad you are dropping by and checking on them.

That’s good for the most part and you’re also with Armand which is not that far away especially with your powers. Tell him I said hello.

[flambeauvivant]

Ah, Vincent. It better satisfy him because that's all he's getting. Pleasant walk, sweetheart?

Damn him.

She'd better keep them in check. If anything happens to Lexia or Mirella, something is going to happen to her.

I shall indeed!

[inbetweenshades]

Thank you for the update.

I am glad that you are doing a bit of self-reflection. That is usually a good thing.

Nicolas with Louis eh? Probably as good a place as any for him.

The Talamasca is being dumb. No surprise there. Sadly. The world, it seems, is going mad. I suppose the Talamasca may as well follow suit.

*waves to Armand*

Xoxo,
Minx

[flambeauvivant]

I am. Quite a bit, in fact.

It's definitely good? The response is always mixed.

[inbetweenshades]

Yes, self reflection is how we grow.
Age doesn't matter.
Sometimes we like what we see, sometimes we do not. But it is impossible to move forward without looking back now and then, in my opinion.

[flambeauvivant]

You're right, of course. And even we, who don't change very much at all, must push for change.

I feel like I have the end of a loose thread and if I pull, I might unravel something.

[thedizzywriter]

Oh wow You really tied up everybody here didn’t you. I appreciate it, I was super worried for you guys while I was on lockup.
Well, everyone but Nicki. He seemed to be Actually acting an ass. Not this cute guilty thing I’m pulling 😂.
