voice, the second } crack kills
[ THIS IS FORWARD DATED spike would usually do this up on video but given the chaos and just how shitty he looks-- oh, yeah, if you haven't seen spike in a bit there's a reason for it. he looks like death. literally. skinny, sallow, low-energy. he's not even quipping like he should be. he's scarcely been here ninety days, but without blood, he's not healing like he should. these demons are giving him the go around and he doesn't like it. so have a raspy english voice, sounding much tireder than usual, which really everyone should expect given the theme around here. ]
I'll tell you all, I've seen an apocalypse or two in my day. And this? This is a bloody disaster.
Floor 22, Room 17. I've got some weapons and hiding spots, but that's not what I'm on about. I'll see you all in the trenches anyway. [ he takes a breath, he might be smoking. ]
...This blood situation, yeah? For us vamps. [ pauuuuuse ] It's wrong, and I'll tell you why it's wrong. This might be a bloody big ship, but it's going to start seeming a whole hell of a lot smaller if we keep handing over human to them--us. To us.
I don't drink human blood, it's a life choice. Let's use an analogy. Now, I talked to an expert on the subject so let's call 'blood' ... 'heroin.' And let's call bagged blood something they call 'methadone.' That's a drug used to bring someone down off scag, if you didn't know. But it doesn't work, and neither does this. Drinking it from a bag? Well. Just makes someone want the real thing.
Over on the Cyllene, guy name of Jayne told me to look for Dr. Tam up in the med bay? But I'm sorry, doc, and anyone else who might have a hand in that concoction -- I don't trust it. Don't ruddy well trust anyone with a beaker and I've got good reason.
There's got to be another way.
[ he hangs up rather abruptly, it takes a lot to get a rise out of him like this. it took the perfect cocktail of starvation, sleeplessness, nightmares and demons from his homeworld but now he's here and he's mad. and yeah, no that's basically it. ]

You're a proper vampire, then?
[ Well, they don't entirely have them in the magical world. Or rather, he's never met one. So this is pretty trippy. ]
voice |
You're lucky.

[ Peter never thinks these things through. Talking to a vampire? Probably not the smartest thing he's ever done. ]
I mean, yeah. I guess... uh, I guess I am. I bet it's gotta be hard -- here, I mean.
voice |
still, he'll try and get along. ] I can't bite you through the bloody walky, you know.
voice |
[ It's a piece of technology that still confuses him, honestly. But a lot of things seem to confuse him.]
I mean, how else do they expect you to, well, you know...

I mean, if the synthetic stuff isn't okay, then... what will you do?
[ Hopefully he doesn't have a taste for rats or mice. Peter can be one of those, too. ]
voice |
[ HE HAS NO IDEA PETER OKOK ]
voice | bahaha your spike is amazing.
Space rat?!
[ VAMPIRE WHO EATS RATS. Why did he decide this was a good idea? ]
I mean -- yeah. I guess, but they're... I mean rats are pretty, well, gross. Really.
voice | what no ;; shut up <3
And rat's not so bad, really. Just... chewy.
voice | srsly awesome, let's be frands kthx. <3
[ If the panic isn't obvious enough in the way his voice shakes, it definitely is now. ]
Rats can't be -- I'm just --
[ He's glad he can't be seen. So, so glad. ]
voice | i think i can handle that
What, you got a pet rat? Don't worry, I'm not after him.
voice | shaweeet. :D but srsly, your spike is fab~
No -- not a pet! Not really, but -- sort of? It's complicated. Really, really complicated.

[ peter you are just too easy. ]
