[Abel lied they're not all asleep. No, actually this one is off... down some hallway very very near the edge of the destruction, sitting up against the wall. Got his legs tuck into his chest and his forehead pressed into his knees, and while it may look very much like he's asleep, he definitely definitely isn't. He is in fact having an existential crisis so uh... have fun... with that I guess]
[...yeah don't even worry, he's taking absolutely everything this guy's got as quickly as he can, and the shift in color between the two of them is probably pretty dramatic, with the townsman going ashen pale and the Methuselah getting... decidedly less so. He still doesn't look exactly healthy, but... close enough]
[But eventually... the guy's heart comes to a stop and then it's just a matter of licking those last few drops from his neck before the body gets kicked away against the opposite wall. Ew, dead terran]
Don't need to tell me how to eat, kid. I've got it figured out by now.
[He frowns a moment. Had she? It felt right anyway. He hadn't been at this very long after all, just a few days...]
[Uh... a few years rather. Wait, how long had he...]
[Oh this was another one of those things... He almost forgot he was having an existential crisis here in the thrill of finally being able to... y'know... eat]
Sure thing, kid. I'm sure that's what you believe.
You also said you could beat the Commander, but we both know that's not true. [Or was it? He has no idea who she is when she isn't this. If she's anything at all... Hmm]
Mmhm. [But he pretty obviously isn't taking her silly backtracking seriously]
So why did you join him? The Commander... You're strong enough, you could make it on your own if you wanted. [Because he knows about the ego. He's seen you get into your little spats with the lieutenant...]
[Hmm... he actually didn't expect her to be able to answer that. He certainly can't. He can't even figure out why he's still here after... nearly dying... twice. Just a vague sense of familiarity. Family even]
[Oh well that's... interesting anyway. He stays silent for a moment, eyeing the townsman's body. Why does he... feel... remorse? for him. He doesn't like it]
At least you're sure... [Gonna try to get up now, he doesn't want to be around this body anymore. But he's still... fairly weak so it's a bit of a struggle lkjsdf]
[But he is actually... thankful for the help, bracing a hand against her shoulder so he doesn't just... fall over again ljdf HAVE FUN SUPPORTING A BRO TWO FEET TALLER THEN YOU. YOU CAN DO IT EVA]

[ ...Has she? That seemed about right, though.
At least he seemed to feel better. ]

[ He's acting weird, but she chalks it up to, eh, near-death experience.
Near... re-death? No, Methuselah weren't reanimated dead like real vampires. Death... Why did she remember being dead, though? ]

I meant to say that... I could beat any of you. I'm the strongest Methuselah, you know. Just maybe not at Crusnik level.
[ Ego, still there. ]

[ Herp, that was a pretty serious answer. ]
I don't respect his brother, or the "lieutenant." That's why I'll only ever listen to Abel.

And you'll destroy the world for that...?

You don't even think you're doing the right thing?

I don't mind playing the villain, but I make no delusions as to what side I'm on.

Though that might be a little funny, being, you know, a 4'3" girl supporting tall dude. ]
