And again, he is resilient, and adapting rather quickly.
Vampirism already agrees with him much more than it ever did with me.
He is completely open, almost excited to learn from me, and I wonder how much of that is his natural drive, and how much is brought out by our blood bond.
I've killed him, let him kill another, drug him out of his life, and his home, and he's only just met me lastnight.
My good tastes seems to have worked in the way of picking my Progeny as well. He's everything I could have wanted and more.
Had I known I was suppose to want it.
And he's right down to business, asking me what's first.
[glow=red,2,300]"Ah tink we should start wit What you have become.
You are aware dat you are vampire, but dere is allot more to it dan dat.
Dere are dangers, like fire, and sunlight. Dey not only hurt you de most, and are tings dat we are not immune, but dey tend ta send us inta frenzy.
When you frenzy, you lose your mind, and your body is left wit de beast, killing witout control.
If you frenzy, you will come back to consciousness wit no idea what you did, and you'll find out de tings dat your body did, are worse dan what a wild animal is capable of.
If you are hungry, de scent a' blood can put you inta frenzy. It is unwise ta go without feeding."[/glow]
I have to smirk at the last line.
Sheila said that to me at least 20 times tonight.
I pause in the conversation, giving Demos the 'one moment' sign, calling Sheila in, asking her to get me two glasses of blood.
She says it's good to see my apetite back, all in French, before rushing to get the request.
Within moments we are now sitting alone again, with refreshments.
I tip my glass to him,
[glow=red,2,300]"Ah usually collect de blood a bit more personally, but Sheila enjoys de stand in on occasion." [/glow]
I give him a bit of a grin, aluding to just how Sheila would stand in for this, before I take a good drink from my glass.
My apetite really hasn't improved, but my gag reflex seems to have recovered finally. I am able to keep it down, my stomach only turning slightly.
I continue with my explanations,
[glow=red,2,300]"Dere is also danger of da blood-bond.
Drinking blood from a vampire, even now dat you are changed, will bind you ta dem.
You are vampire because a' my blood, we 'ave a first level blood bond, an' always will.
I am sure you feel some pull ta me.
Level one, ya feel someting for de one you are bound to, but it does na stop you from making your own choices.
If you drank from me again, it would go to level 2, and you would be completely infatuated wit me.
And if you drank from me tres times, you would be triple bound, wit no will o' your own, but mine.
You can bind odders ta you de same way, if dey drink your blood, dey will have de same effects towards you.
If you feed a human several times, it is even more potent on dem.
Sheila would kill herself, simply if I wanted it. She woul'n't even question my order.
So dat's de general dangers. Fire, Sunlight, odder vampire's blood."[/glow]
I stop, taking another sip of my blood, thinking of where to start with the rest.
[glow=red,2,300]"Dere are many different bloodlines, Many types o' vampire.
Each wit der own strengths, weaknesses, and powers.
I will tell you what I know of de odder bloodlines later, right now, We talk o' our own clan, Toreador. De Artistes.
You tasted de clan weakness, de trance.
We are sensitive ta beauty, and dat trance is our curse for it.
De trance makes you incable of moving, even ta defend. Someone can kill you, an' you jus' let dem as you stand dere starin' off inta space.
It is very dangerous in public.
We can build willpower ta help against it, but we will never be free o' de curse completely.
I 'ave heard dere are many versions o' da story, but de way I 'eard it, Caine was de first vampire, Biblical Caine, de one dat created murder when he killed his brodder Able.
He was cursed by God himself, to be a vampire.
He created odders, a second generation, Which Enoch was from.
Enoch was known as de 'wise' and de first childe of Caine.
He was first king o de first City. (City by vampire terms... An ordered vampire society, basically.)
He gave Caine Kingship of de city when Caine returned from his own travels, and became Caine's adviser.
Enoch Sired Arikel, a Sculpter.
Arikel's generation turned on de second generation, an killed dem, Causing Caine to curse each one.
Dey say dat our curse, being entranced by beauty, is equivallent to a slap on de wrist, because Caine believed Arikel to be innocent.
Sounds like a bunch of Bullshit ta me dough. Our curse can be jus' as dangerous as de odder's.
Well Arikel Sired Iontius, Who you may recognize de stage name: Derrick Zeel. A famous porn star. He owns de video production company dat makes his films. Iontius gained de ability to feed off his victims trough sex radder dan normal vampiric means, by dealing wit demons.
Now Iontius Sired Nicolò Amati, a famous Violin maker, who flourished by making improvements to de very design o' de instrument, changing de sound produced. He is honered up dere wit de Stratavari where Violin making is concerned.
Seems de boys met in de Roman Baths... Nicolo was na sired for his art wit de violin... Ta hear him tell de tale, it was all dat public sex dat lead ta it...
And Nicolo Sired me.
I was born in 1532, sent ta Nicolo to learn de Violin from a master's hands.
My parents did na know dey sent me to a vampire.
He embraced me, but did na live very long after.
After spending allot a time in Torpor, which is a condition close ta death, sleeping so deeply ya don't wake for years, not even ta feed, I started pulling myself togedder, an I created Black Rose Productions from de ground up.
I am very successful. In de art, in de clan, and in dis city.
I am Primogen, which means I represent de Toreador in de big politics.
When someting is going on, de Prince calls the Primogen Council, an one member a' each clan go in ta discuss and plan how to handle any situation for de best o' da City an' our vampire society.
I 'ave been in dis City since it was founded. I 'ave plenty a resources 'ere.
I do travel outside de City, when I get restless, but dis is my home.
You are in Emerald Rose, my estate home, right now, and de show where we met, was in Black Rose Production's studio, it is also mine.
I fund allot more in dis City dat I don' directly own as well.
My success an fortune are based 'ere."[/glow]
I pause, taking yet another sip, this time to wet my throat after talking so much.
He seems to soak up every word, and doesn't seem bored as I expected him to be.
Which is really good. I've said allot tonight, and I'm not even close to being done telling him all he needs to know to get along in my world.
Vampirism already agrees with him much more than it ever did with me.
