[open] But I know I'll land here again
Character(s): Alucard + Open
Status: Open
Location(s): Krimnos -> Home in the mountains
Date(s) Start of April -> Einjar Expedition II, Electric Boogaloo
About: General catch all log
Warnings: To be added
Note: Castle is not representative of Usir canon castle, just roll with me on this
[Krimnos is mostly for picking up supplies these days, then departing for home. Alucard's affection for the city has grown slightly, such as it is. Any place that encourages such dedication to technological development has earned that much, just as it has focused it's efforts on exploration and understanding. Einjar was proof of that. But he doesn't linger in the city, not when home is two days away.
Those looking for him there are most likely to find him in market spaces, or else in the part of the city dedicated to invention. He does little but observe in the latter space.
On the road between home and Krimnos, Alucard is all too keenly aware of the world around him. There is, of course, the little hamlet that marks the half-way point between home and the city, and he rests there between his trips. With warmer evenings out, he takes advantage of the one inn that boasts of a patio for evening meals, and can be found there with food remaining on his plate and a glass of probably too-dark wine in hand, barely drunk. For all the world, they look closer to props that let him settle in for a time, taking in the world around him.
Home is still a crumbling castle, whose remaining spire still reaches up towards the heavens. It is aged, save for the new lock on the door that makes it clear that this long thought cursed relic is inhabited by the living.]

Alucard pulls back, his version of flushed and breathless. He's taken a risk, he knows how much he's taken a risk and Trevor is taking what feels like an eternity to respond.
He doesn't know what kind response would qualify as good. But Trevor lifting the blanket and demanding Alucard stay is as good as any. So Alucard does exactly as he's asked, and he's careful as he crawls under the blanket.]
You're sure?

[ He pulls the blanket down over Alucard, and that feels final. A decision made, impossible now to undo. Under the blanket, he waits for Alucard to settle before resting a hand on his back carefully, experimentally. It's nothing he hasn't done already, mostly in his sleep, but it didn't mean anything before. It does now. ]
This all okay with you, still?
[ Has anything fundamental changed, is what he means. He doesn't want anything to have changed. From the kitchen, the hissing probably isn't audible. But it certainly feels that way. ]
no subject
Mmm. I've...this isn't a new feeling. I've been unsure of how to act on it.
[So maybe nothing's changed in Alucard's mind, at least.]
I care. And have cared for some time.
