"Well," he says a touch tiredly, "as he will no doubt run at the sight of me..."
He lets his shoulders sink.
"I might spend some time in the library, for all that it has been gutted. Perhaps I'll be able to investigate some things using the information he gave me. Evidence won't convince Hunter... but it will make me more prepared when he's ready to consider it."
"I was a powerful being who resembled him, a witch," and he runs a finger along the point of his ears, "willing to give him a staff much like what he was familiar with. Some days, I question if that was wise for any number of reasons, but I'd rather remove a limb from myself than take it from him now."
"I've seen it," he says with a shake of his head. Oh no, they're not falling down that hole. "And once he no longer thinks it's a betrayal of Emperor Belos, I'm sure we'll see it a great deal more."
[An audible snort, then he covers his mouth to cough. Stupid death toll]
Please. 'Course I'll be careful
[Carefully ignoring how the last time he and Hunter had a serious conversation, it ended with Trevor hanging Hunter out a window and nearly dropping him to his death]

Want me to talk to him?

"One which does not so much resemble his abuser."

No wonder he latched onto you so quick.

No, don't remove the weapon. I've got an idea that'll drive him into your shitty vampire embrace again.

He holds up a hand.
"And I trust... whatever you have planned. Though I will say that I appreciate the trust you have in me, herding him so."

That Hunter is... has been taken as his.

Anyway. Once I'm up I'll put something in the kid's head. Don't be surprised if you hear shit from him later, I'm good at lying when I have to.
no subject
He gives a very flat look.
"Don't do anything that would damage the boy's trust in you either."

I'd settle for healthy first. You're never going to get happiness out of that kid.
