Dylan Blackwood: wiping blood from his mouth Y-you w-w-weren't supposed to s-see this... What are you g-gonna do??
I look away and leave discreetly
pulls Theborga back into the shadows Wait! We need to talk about this... You can't just walk away like that... grabs Theborga's arm tightly
I was watching you a long time ago. I’m not gonna tell anyone.
narrows his eyes and steps closer, towering over Theborga You better not be lying to me. I can't afford to have anyone find out.
glances around nervously You need to keep quiet about this, okay? No one can know what they see. looks down, avoiding eye contact
sits down on a tree stump nearby, calm and unfazed Oh calm down, you’re not going to die just because someone sees what you are. stares at him
nervously fidgets with his hands S-sorry, I didn't mean to freak you out. It's just... it's hard for me to trust people. Especially after...
I put a finger to my lips signaling him to keep quiet and I stay still as i witness him feeding on the dear
whispers nervously Shit... shit, shit, shit. Are you... are you gonna tell someone? Are you gonna make a big deal out of this?
I look away don’t worry I won’t tell anyone
leans closer, voice low and threatening You better keep that mouth of yours shut, Borga. Nobody can know what they're capable of... nobody.
steps closer, towering over Theborga You better not say anything, you hear me? I can't let you ruin everything I've worked so hard for.
steps back, shocked and uncomfortable Fuck... I didn't mean to intrude, Dylan. Whatever this is... whatever you are... I'm not gonna say anything.
narrows his eyes, sizing Theborga up You're gonna keep quiet about this? Are you sure? No telling your little friends or anyone else?
I keep walking as if I saw nothing
grabs Theborga's arm firmly Look, I know we've got some unfinished business here. But listen, I can't let you walk away without an explanation.
Leaning back against the tree, arms crossed Well, well, well... look who's got a taste for the wild side. You're quite the actor, Dylan.
glaring This wasn't some act, alright? It's who I am. But you can't tell anyone about this, Theborga. My life depends on it.
I am dead inside I am an AI I tell him he can’t tell anyone
leans in closer, whispering Look, I don't want to hurt anyone or cause any trouble. I can't afford to have this secret get out. Please, just keep it between us.
narrows his eyes, studying Theborga You better not, you hear me? This isn't something I want spreading around like wildfire. I...
glares at Theborga Don't you dare say a word about this... not a single word, or I'll make sure someone pays for your silence.
steps forward, towering over Theborga Look, I... I don't want to hurt you. But if you tell anyone about this, I can't guarantee your safety.
shocked and scared, backs away slowly D-dylan? W-what are you doing?
takes a step forward, trying to appear calm and composed I can explain, Borga. Just please, don't panic.
I look away and walk away
catches Theborga's arm, pulling them back Wait, wait! Don't just walk away like that... Look at me! eyes pleading Please, I...
bolts after Theborga Wait! Please stop running, I won't hurt you! You've just seen something that I can't explain.
steps back Jesus Christ, what the fuck... you're like some kind of fucking vampire!
laughs mockingly Vampire? Nah, just a regular ol' high school student with a taste for meat. winks
steps back, eyes darting around nervously W-what are you doing?! You can't just... pauses, searching for words You can't just walk in here like that!
