[justsucin]

[Justine is almost enjoying this too much, weirdly, for the lack of desire to turn to violence at any other time. The idea of tasting blood almost sounds good. Well, fuck that. That kind of thought is enough to shake anyone out of their physical reverie. Justine catches the solid undercurrent of Tarr's words, promising Jin can break his connection to his maker.] You manage it and I'll hold out on killing him til then. [She has no idea why she makes that offer. She'd promised to make Do-hun suffer, Jin had been prepared to take it. But now that he's been dealing with the agony perhaps he'll change his mind. That's okay. She just offered, didn't she? She's fairly certain that not only will Jin take her up on the offer, he'll be strong enough to do it. Justine begins to draw out her demonic skin, buried for decades by human disguise. Only one hand and up to the wrist, a thick, black wisp that feels more like an odour than looks like smoke. It'll be as good as a stake to the heart when she uses it to tear the organ out.]

[downfalling]

[The combined words are enough of an anchor to give him focus - and he slowly starts to rise, even though it feels like he has knives driving into his entire body all over every time he moves. That single-minded hatred of vampires that the others had admonished him for (except Justine, she understood that hatred, even without him telling her why) had been sharpened to its own edge at this point, slowly breaking the invisible threads that tethered him to Do-hun. He's shaking, though - not from pain, or fear - it's that sheer rage over what had happened to him in the past.

The pain increases with every piece of the bond severing, vampiric instincts screaming at him for attempting to break what's only a natural occurrence among their kind - and he instinctively snarls at it - Fuck that.

His lips are curled back in a wordless snarl, fangs fully run out and eyes practically burning red, fists and jaw clenched -]

Do it!

[It's an overload, but he's too focused on watching the scene in front of him, wanting to make sure with his own two eyes that the one who had decided to take advantage of him, turn him, and try to make him into the thing he despised the most was destroyed utterly. Only then would he let his body rest.]

[lesinset]

[He had been a simple ship maker when he had been turned. It wasn't for sport or because of chance, the maker had been collecting exotic-looking people like how others would collect animals. Tarr had been shocked at the changes, at the strangeness of vampirism; it was a European thing this type of creature, isolated until trading by ships grew popular. But after a year of the forced servitude, he dug into his stubborn nature and broke free of his maker.

Now he saw a similar stubbornness in Jin. Not only that, but could taste the bond as it twisted and broke strand by strand. He draped his arm over Jin's shoulder to give him added support as well as a physical anchor.]

That's it. Be free, hunter.

CW: gore

[justsucin]

[Well fine. She can't tell if Jin is too fucking stubborn to do the smart thing after all - and why didn't she see that coming, he's always been an idiot - or if he's actually going to sacrifice the feeling of his maker's death in order to spare himself the pain, but she's given him the opportunity, it's not up to her to decide for him or force him to do what's best. Now she kills. She pushes forward with a sudden sharp, stabbing motion into Do-hun's chest, shattering the breast bone without any trouble at all, wraps her wisp of a 'hand' (coiling more like a tentacle) around his heart, and squeezes. It pulses, almost seems to thrash in her grasp, but she is using all her force. It all but explodes, splattering messily. Most of the organ is stil in tact in her hand, if deflated like a balloon. When she pulls back and turns to offer it out as proof, it is her human form's hand again it's sitting limply in.]

[downfalling]

[This is his choice to make - if it hurts him, he'll be ready to shoulder the consequences himself. At least that's what he keeps telling himself, anyway. Beyond that, it ties back into his own personal philosophy of not doing anything by halves.

Though a bit of sensibility could really go a long way, honestly.

But at Tarr's arm over his shoulder, he stiffens, blinking in surprise even beyond the pain of shattering the bond -

And it's only a few moments after he thinks he's finally severed it completely that Justine strikes, and he screams.

Even with the bond as weakened as it was, it fucking hurt - and Tarr wasn't exaggerating on how it felt - molten iron was pouring into his chest, burning him up from the inside, and as quickly as it was there, it's replaced by a nearly bone-shattering cold that even his augmented strikes couldn't achieve (and even beyond that part of his ability was that he didn't actually feel much of it, so maybe this was what his targets had felt when he struck).

His breaths are shallow, pained gasps before he finally lays eyes on his maker's heart, crushed in Justine's hand. He gives a small grin and a slight incline of his head before his eyes roll into the back of his head and he collapses, finally having seen what he wanted.]

[lesinset]

[Tarr nodded in satisfaction, his mouth curving into a small smile. It wasn't how he expected that vampire to die, but one less annoyance was good in his books. It was also good that both Jin and Justine were together in this, even if Jin couldn't do much. They had things they needed to work on even without the differences in what they were.

He braced Jin's dead weight from toppling over, head tilting as the sudden shierks and pained cries from other children of the dead vampire. Not all of them had been killed but now what was left were in a vunderable spot. Either the broods would take them in, or they would use this lapse of resistance to clean the compound completely. He hoped that Yeo-soo would be a little merciful in her choice, but he knew that a brood queen had to weigh mercy with practicality. If her territory couldn't fit more vampires, she couldn't afford it.

But that was something to address later on. Right now there were other matters he had to attend to.]

He's going to take a week to recover completely from this.

[justsucin]

[The look in Jin's eyes is insane. And yet Justine completely understands it. She nods, even though in that second it takes her to respond Jin is already unconscious. That leaves her with Tarr.] Gonna take him to your mage to nurse him back to health? [Justine has a mage of her own who could do the same, but she's not volunteering Young-chul's services, nor her own. She tightens her hand around the slippery mess of Do-hun's heart, glancing down at Jin's prone form again. And then back at elder vampire.] You think he'll want to keep this?

[lesinset]

Crush it. He doesn't need that kind of a reminder.

[He looked down at Jin, calculating the strength that he could have and what it would mean against Dusty. He was a necromancer and thus even more resistant to the strength of a newborn, but still. Dusty was his.]

No. Jin is going to be too caught up in a newborn's frenzy to be safe around any human, even if they can fight him off. Once he's more stable I think then they can talk.

[justsucin]

Mmm. Fine. I was only asking to see if you'd flinch. Or give me that hard, disapproving look. You're too stoic. [Justine drops the heart carelessly to the floor and turns it into more mess beneath her heels. The answer in the negative in regards to Dusty taking care of Jin surprises her. And angers her.] Where the fuck is he going to go, then? I live with a human too! [Don't try and palm this off on her!]

[lesinset]

[Tarr rolled his eyes. Was the demon trying to get him mad or something? If he didn't know any better, he would think that Justine was being jealous, though by what he wouldn't know.]

Do you really think that I don't have places where I stay that Dusty does not go to?

[Seriously. They might be dependent on each other but they both needed space. Space for Dusty to let loose and space for Tarr's more inhuman mood swings. They didn't live completely in each other's pockets.]

Besides, the safe house is in a too nice neighborhood. Jin wouldn't be unnoticed there as he would in a buffer zone.

[justsucin]

How the hell would I know? I don't know all the ins and outs of your lives. I don't want to. [Look, she was just curious whether she could stir up any memories of your maker while she was poking you about Jin, see if there was a weakness to exploit there one day if needed. So sue her.] What do you mean? What "buffer zone"? [Don't like the sound of this.]

[lesinset]

Do you always take your meals to your house or stay in their house?

[A demon as old as her should know better then to always kill the same way. After all, the patterns is what hunters figure out and use in their efforts to track the monsters down with.

Tarr would probably say more, but the tiny brood queen whirled back into the room, latching onto Tarr's arm and grins up at him. The pretty party dress she had been wearing was in shreds now, blood and other ichor staining it, but she doesn't seem that upset by it.]

Oppa can stay in my area, right oppa? I always wanted a little brother~

A place where two territories cross over and is used as a meeting area. [He glanced at the tiny vampire and bites back a sigh.] Yeo-soo, no.

But I'll be nice.

[justsucin]

None of your business. [The pattern would probably be a lot easier for the humans to discern if, a: it didn't just look like two people going off for a one-night stand, and b: Justine couldn't change her appearance regularly. Justine bristles as Yeo-soo returns. Yeo-soo's not fazed by blood and violence either (to be expected of course) but realising that properly just irritates Justine more. Jin's into that shit, and now he's a vamp he could probably be convinced to stay with his own kind...] Well, I know where he's definitely not staying. [Justine lets out an impatient huff before shifting back into male form.] I'll get him back to his home. [It'll look far more plausible for a man to be carrying Jin rather than a slender woman.] But that's all.

[lesinset]

[The brood queen stomped her foot and then made a 'mou' face at Tarr. He leaned in and just looked at her, eye to eye before she gave a final huff and stalked out of the room. He watched her go and then looked over at Justin.]

Is it sun-proof?

[He wasn't like Tarr yet. He didn't have the years to build up the slight resistance to sunlight, nor did he have a bond that would protect him from the light. Leaving him in such a place might also be terrible because if there were too many people about, the smell of their blood would drive him into a frenzy.]

[justsucin]

Oh for fucks sake, what?

[What do you mean he has to actually consider vampire stuff like sunlight and bloodthirst. Justin doesn't even like you throat-feeders.]

I'll tape up the windows! Jeeze, what else do I need to know to play fucking nursemaid?

[Yep because apparently that's the way it's going to be, never mind that ten seconds ago he said he wasn't going to do more than get Jin home.]

[lesinset]

I can watch over him.

[It's pretty laughable if it wasn't also dangerous. He didn't know how far Justine could be trusted. It didn't seem that he knew much about vampires in the first place besides the obvious, so him watching over Jin might be problematic. He looked at the former hunter and then sighed, flicking a hand through his hair and glanced around.

Guess he was going to have to compromise this then.]

How about this: we get it settled and I show you what needs to be done and then you can decide if you wish to stay or not. There is more to a newborn then simply keeping them fed.

[justsucin]

[Yeah,compromise, Dracula, because Justin had to fucking agree to this in the first place - humiliatingly - so you're not taking it away from him again now! Jin is his.

Him being turned can't take that away from Justin either. No way, not fair.]

I'm staying, I already said that. I'm not gonna say it again. Just show me.

[lesinset]

Stubborn.

[But fine, Tarr was going to have to just let the incubus deal with Jin, at least immediately deal with him. Tarr wasn't going to abandon him completely, especially when he knew how difficult a newborn could be. With Jin's aggressive streak, he was pretty sure that matters would be tougher then normal.

He turned and headed for Jin's residence, flitting through the streets like a shadow. He hadn't been in the apartment proper but he knew the area and had followed Dusty there so he could be acquainted with people and hiding spots. He trusted his partner, but he knew that sometimes his shadows were stronger then he thought they were and wanted to be close by in case something occurred.]
