[ ^^ 100th post. c: ]
At first I didn't believe her. What kind of disease had to do with blood coming from her mouth? A creature? It didn't sound right. But, I was a sucker for tears and I watched as they fell, making my disgusted ex
pression soften.
I didn't say how, yes, it was extremely disgusting - that was the last thing she needed to hear - but that didn't mean I could try and be a bit nicer now that I knew what was going on, right?
I slid down from the sofa, but still stayed a bit aways from her, the blood being a big turn off. "It's not like you can help it."
I said, my deep voice softening, no trace of the disgust even though I wasn't a perfect human being. The blood made me want to vomit.
I disappeared from the living room for a moment, grabbing the whole roll of paper towels in the kitchen and sitting back next to her. I gave her a sad smile as I ripped a couple towels off the roll and handed them to her. Sorry, me wiping that off would result in something ugly.

(Yay. n-n )
Travis's kind gesture brought a smile to her face, but it was short-lived and quickly faded as she tore a towel from the roll and brought it to her face. "I'm really sorry." She said again as she dipped an end of the material in a nearby glass of water and dabbed it against the underside of her lip and chin. She then tore off a second towel and repeated the same action, only this time she brought the wet end to her hair to soften the bits of dried blood laced within it.
"I'm going to go throw these away." She said standing up. "I'll be right back."
Her heels clicked against the hard floor as she made her way to the kitchen, clutching the soiled towels in her clenched fist.

At her smile, I felt a little better about this situation. She was probably feeling completely humiliated, and I was feeling extremely awkward. Me being disgusted wouldn't help problems, but still, as I watched her wipe away the blood, I did feel bile come up my throat. I guess I didn't have a strong stomach, no matter how big I was.
"Sure thing."
I said, finding my voice and finally able to breathe with out worrying about getting sick. I watched her go, not really knowing what I'd do with her now. Obviously, the mood was ruined - even if I didn't realize there was a mood until she bit me. And I couldn't just kick her out. But my apartment was pretty much furniture and food. It wasn't like I had a entertainment closet.
"You feeling better?"
I called out to her, my head twisted to look at her to make sure she found the trash can alright.

[[ I'm taking a short - or long, I don't know - hiatus from role playing. I need to get some things straightened out. It could be a week, or it could be longer, I'm not sure. I'll be in the SB if I'm hired as SB mod, but other then that, I won't be coming on Res once I'm sure all of my role play buddies know. Hopefully when I start role playing again, you're still around so we can keep this going. c: ]]

(Sorry, I'm staying at my grandparent's place for the week and their internet, and their schedule, is really flaky. )
"Yeah." She answered him as her free hand flipped up the trash can lid. Her head jerked in the opposite direction as she dumped the soiled towels in, not that she was disgusted by them, she knew exactly what they were as this was a fairly common situation, it was just the timing, that something this embarrassing had to happen at this time. Her heel's regular clicking and clacking was heard again as she walked over to the sink, flipping the switch labeled "HOT WATER" on the faucet. It burned, as she had several cuts and scrapes scattered about her palm, but was nothing she wasn't used to (after all, if she could handle the pain of her eyes rolling back into her head and her brain nearly hemorrhaging she could definitely handle a bit of hot water).
After a minute or two had passed her hand reached up to turn off the faucet and she dried her hands on a towel she found laying around.
With a quick turn on her heels she made her way back to the living room, it was time to undo the damage she'd done, if that was even possible at this point.
(oh dear glob
late post.
I'll probably still be around when you come back, doll.
Good luck. (: )

[[ Back sooner then I thought. c: On a side note, you posted on the same day as me, it was nowhere near a 'late post'. xD -epicfail- ]]
I let the silence make the air thicker in the room as she was in the kitchen. What was I to say? Apparently, the woman that was here had some kind of 'creature' in her, parse. I'm not going to admit that I believe that entirely, but obviously, something was wrong with her. I made a mental note of researching about it later.
"Better?"
I asked turning my head so my eyes followed her, chewing my lip as I heard her footsteps come louder in the room as she came towards me again. This didn't really seem like much of a date anymore, but I had questions swarming around my brain that stopped me from showing her the door.

(Yay.
Wellp, we're leaving the house now. We should be home around 4:00-4:30, so expect a response around 5:00-ish (just factoring in the time it will take for us to unpack and everything). )

( I'M HOME. I: ) Travis's change in demeanor made it blatantly obvious that things probably weren't going to go back to the way they previously were. The air was different as well. It's playful atmosphere had faded into something the little tealette could only describe as uncomfortable.
She took her spot on the couch, crossed her legs, breathed in the stagnant air. She knew things weren't going to be easy, and the only way she was probably going to get anything accomplished was with copious amounts of explaining. "So...." She murmured, her hands restlessly fidgeting in her lap. She chewed her bottom lip. She wasn't sure what to say next, or if she should say anything to him next, it might've been better to just let things run it's course.

I got up from the floor where she had left me to clean herself off, and sat next to her on the sofa. I wasn't close enough to show that I was interested in keeping the date going, but I wasn't far away enough to show that I thought she had the plague. It was a friendly distance.
"So,"
I started, pursing my lips. How was I to say 'Tell me everything about your condition' with out sounding to suspicious?
"Is that just a reaction to your condition?"
I asked, referring to the blood from her mouth.

"Yes." The tealette murmured to the ground. Her nails clicked against one another as she nervousy stared at her hands. "It's not the best side effect," she frowned, "and it's certainly not the worst."
She regretted those words as soon as they were said. It was only obvious that his worries (or curiosity) would have him inquiring about what the "worst" was.

[[ Sorry for the delay. Studying. :x]]
I gave her an empathetic smile when she told me it wasn't the best side effect. What she said took away the suspicion and made me feel more pity for her then anything else. She was probably feeling humiliated.
Well. The sympathy only lasted for so long before her next words.
I lifted an eyebrow, sitting up straighter as if listening 10 times more. "What are those other worse symptoms?"

(It's alright.
Meh, I don't go back until two weeks.)
"Well....." She gave a long pause and ran her fingers through her hair. What was she to say, "Oh, I tend to have cannibalistic tendencies at times." "Nothing much, I just seldom make a meal out of my neighbors." "I just feel compelled to eat human flesh at times." To break the silence she came up with the most simple and unnerving (or partially unnerving) thing that could come to mind.
"Are you familiar with the behavior of 'zombies?'" She asked, nervously resituating and shifting about on the couch cushion.

I let her think, keeping green eyes on her. My imagination didn't go very far, not being able to imagine what was worse then what I just saw.
My eyebrows lifted at her question. "Uh... Well." I wasn't expecting that. "I mean yeah, they eat people." I said, feeling silly that we were talking about zombies. "What does that have to do with anything?" I asked carefully, eyeing her as I waiting for her response.
[[ I'll be going on a vacation this Sunday through out the whole week. I'm not really sure when we'll be back, it's just a spontaneous thing. :) ]]

(Bah, sorry. I had a MASSIVE art order to place.
Alright. Have a nice time on vaycay.)
"Well...." She made sure to pause for a moment, hesitating about her next phrase. "That's just it, they eat people." "Th-that's the lightest I can explain it. The virus has necrotizing tendencies, though they're internal, which causes the bleeding at the mouth. But luckily it has no external effects aside from the bleeding, so I still have a human like appearance, thank god." She mumbled out those last two words before taking a sip from the glass of water she had got on her previous kitchen visit. "Could you imagine, going through life looking all decayed and horrible? It would be torture!" She took another sip. "Sure I have my fair share of marks but they're usually bruises or bite marks, and they're certainly not decaying. I guess I was just fortunate on that part."
