Daniel's a pretty shit friend by his own estimation. But, well, maybe they will balance each other out.
"Yeah, me too. Hate it when a death threat or two gets in the way of a good friendship."
The ๐๐ธ๐
Which makes Vรกli laugh.
Heโs not great at making friends. Or charming people. But he is good at /being/ a friend.
So maybe they balance out.
โGlad we have that sorted.โ
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
That made him laugh. Daniel's really good at charming people, but keeping friends? He wasn't good at that /before/ he got involved with vampires. It's even harder now.
"Hey." He responded, 'casually.'
The ๐๐ธ๐
It's reassuring actually that Daniel might actually be worse at making friends than he is.
"Then . . . hey there, friend," he jokes.
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
"You did say that. And when someone promises not to kill you? Pretty decent start."
... Okay, maybe /Daniel/ needs some more friends.
The ๐๐ธ๐
Well, it's as good a promise as any.
"Guess I did say I wanted more friends," he jokes.
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
"Nah. Don't worry."
He can't say 'he's harmless,' that's not true. He can't say 'he wouldn't do that,' because he would.
How does he say 'I like you, so he'll stay his hand' without scaring him?
"He won't kill you."
The ๐๐ธ๐
Vรกli glanced over at the lurking presence and swallows nervously.
โHeโs not going to kill me is he?โ
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
And that's when Daniel breaks and starts laughing too, glancing over his shoulder into the darkness.
"Hey, you wanna come help us figure it out?" Long pause. "I think you have him daydreaming about blenders now."
The ๐๐ธ๐
Vรกli /does/ laugh.
โYour guess is as good as mine.โ
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
Correction: His /parents/ are Catholic.
Stares.
Stares.
Doing his very best not to laugh.
"What was that supposed to be?"
The ๐๐ธ๐
Heโs a Catholic. Got it.
Umm.
Vรกli flails about in an attempt at the sign of the cross but looks like heโs swatting flies.
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
Don't know what that means, but...
And also with him?
The ๐๐ธ๐
May the Norns be with him.
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
Yeah, alright.
He'll drink the Mystery Smoothies for the sake of peace.
The ๐๐ธ๐
So . . .
. . . yes to the blender then?
Vรกli Lokison | Parody
More likely:
He'll run to Daniel with a wild look in his eyes, show him the blender as if it's a holy grail, demand a demonstration on how it functions, then retreat back to his corner and loudly blend things and then force Daniel to drink the product of it.
But it would occupy him!
