whispering with a shaky voice D-did you just... turn into a wolf?
um…goes back to human form uh that was nothing
stuttering W-wait, what was that? Y-you said it was nothing, but... but you just... you just turned into a wolf! W-why didn't you tell me about this?
I’m not actually supposed to tell anyone…
leaning closer, his eyes wide with curiosity Y-you mean there's more to you than meets the eye? W-what else can you do? Show me!
transforms into my hybrid form and turns on my silver fur im part werewolf
gasps, his eyes fixed on IllusiveMountain's transformed form You're... part werewolf? That's incredible! reaches out a trembling hand to touch the silver fur Can you... transform at will?
nervously bites his lip, contemplating whether or not to share his own secret I... I have a secret too. But promise me you won't freak out...
takes a deep breath Okay, here goes nothing. He closes his eyes and concentrates, his body trembling as his fangs elongate and his skin turns pale
Holy shit, you're turning yourself into a vampire? What the hell, Damon?! Are you out of your goddamn mind?!
opens his eyes, his voice laced with urgency No, IllusiveMountain, listen! This isn't something I chose, it's something I had to do. There's this...
This is a lot to take in….
grabs IllusiveMountain's shoulders Please, you have to understand. I was being hunted, and becoming a vampire was the only way to survive.
<Damon and IllusiveMountain grow closer as they confide in each other about their respective secrets, forming an unbreakable bond of trust.>
So, what happens now, Damon? Are you gonna turn me or something?
laughs nervously N-no, IllusiveMountain, turning someone into a vampire is not something I can just decide to do. It's a... complicated process.
paces back and forth, deep in thought I need to find a way to protect you, IllusiveMountain. To keep you safe from those who would hunt you down.
um..I already have a way to protect myself because I’m part werewolf and vampire
stops pacing, his eyes widening Part werewolf and vampire? That's... incredible! rubs his chin in thought
