[ the temptation of the blood can be overwhelming, but he's had plenty of practice resisting the pull of it. resisting the very nature of what he is even though he's been trying to embrace it, accept it. he feels the itch of eyes on him, searching the crowd - but the voice that answers is familiar.
he finds alicent in the crowd and chaos, green eyes searching her expression, watching the way she reaches for something that isn't there. he can see a glimpse of something with many teeth and wild eyes in her mind, the way she stands like a stalwart ballast in a vicious storm. her people, her family, are lucky to have her. ]
I got less teeth than the beasts I know, too.
[ the battlefield of writhing bodies in blood and food turning to dust - they don't need to be among this. louis can feel the temptation of it all, armand's blood coursing through his veins, burning hot from feeding on blood-laced fruits and snacks. he rises from his seat slowly. surveying the chaos around him. ]
Let me make sure you get away from this safely. If you trust me.
