never touching again . . .

[Damn. @Theonenameddamn]

THREE words

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

fingers phasing through the beautiful petals that bloomed in her garden. how he wished he could really touch them . . . smell them.

and then Khali couldn't see him anymore.

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

Sam gave a solemn nod. he had the sinking feeling that he'd gone about this all wrong . . . and he was starting to feel horrible. what if he was really putting Khali in danger ? she said she wasn't careless , but 𝑓𝑢𝑐𝑘 , if she got hurt because of him and his inability to +

[𝕯𝖗. 𝐊𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖎 𝐌𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖆𝖓𝖆 —— 🍁🥀 @flowersandbIood]

she’d taken out her pocket journal and written down everything Sam told her , feeling more and more that she may have agreed to take on some impossible endeavor .

perhaps she would start with the girlfriend ; that would be more what she usually did — just talking and offering a warding spell for some basic protection . and so much of her work centered around networking ; she had contacts and community to provide this woman with more help and more answers , too .

“i don’t fuck around either,” Khali replied , the weariness starting to weight her voice . “no one gets to be my age by being careless…”

no candidate for rehab ? then what was the point of talking to him ? perhaps she’ll get the measure of him first , and then contact Anguish — the dark entity was not exactly a friend , but they had a respectful , if distant , professional relationship .

“please don’t make me regret this , Sam…” Khali met his eyes . “i will do what i can — i certainly don’t like the thought of a dangerous vampire running amok either . but yes… you may seek me out once more . i will let you know if anything comes of this.”

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

and knowing it probably wouldn't make him feel any better . . . even if he could.

❛ but maybe . . . you'll do something better than I could. wishing you the best of luck , Khali. see ya around . . .❜

not wanting to bother her anymore , Sam let himself float away , his +

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

check in with you after a while ? just to make sure you're okay and maybe . . . talk about things ? anything. ❜

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

Sam patiently went through all the details and locations Khali would need to know.

❛ please . . . if you look into this , be careful. I think he can hypnotize folks. and , I think he's allergic to crosses too , or can't look at them. he almost lured this one girl but didn't , +

[𝕯𝖗. 𝐊𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖎 𝐌𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖆𝖓𝖆 —— 🍁🥀 @flowersandbIood]

she was old ( far older than she looked ) and very little surprised her anymore… but her pale eyes nearly fell out of her head at ‘one or two murders a week’.

“twice a week ??”

Khali crossed her arms and frowned at the ground , thinking . maybe this vampire had some sort of eating disorder where he was gorging himself every other day , or he was just a sick sadist . or he was very , very young…

no self control ? perhaps she *should be calling on a vampire hunter… if she knew any she could trust . but she didn’t , and the very thought made her feel rather ill ; her patients would never trust her again if she did such a thing .

shit…

“tell me where i can find your girlfriend and i’ll talk to her about protection . as for the vampire…”

…maybe she would regret this .

“tell me where i can find him too — the bar you met him at , anything useful — and i’ll . . . i’ll see what i can do . no promises , though.”

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

to protect yourself if you get involved. this guy doesn't fuck around. he is a remorseless killer. and if you ask me . . . he's no candidate for rehab.❜

but he'll let Khali be the judge of that. whatever gets Jerry off the streets will put him at ease.

❛ is it okay if I... +

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

as he put it — but never got that far. ❜

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

❛ protection spell . . . that has a nice sound to it. if you think it'll help Molly , I'd be forever in your debt. ❜

he could tell that he'd pushed too many of Khali's buttons. now Sam was determined to keep a level head. won't do anyone any good if he blasts off. this was +

[𝕯𝖗. 𝐊𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖎 𝐌𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖆𝖓𝖆 —— 🍁🥀 @flowersandbIood]

at this point , the witch was about ready to turn around and go back through the garden gate where the spirit couldn't follow her across her wards . he seemed like an angry and volatile fellow , and her friendly mood was wearing thin .

but she sighed , looking at Sam with weary sympathy . it was tragic... many people had been hurt or killed by vampires , accidentally or even murdered .

"I'm very sorry for your circumstances , Sam . truly , I am . I could provide your girlfriend with some protection , or put her in touch with some associates of mine , but I'm no vampire hunter — I'm a doctor . I'm not really sure what you want from me."

she felt bad that she couldn't really offer this spirit much more than words that he likely didn't want to hear . but maybe there was something she could do...

"just how dangerous is this man ? is he a calculated killer or a young vampire who hasn't learned control yet ? I have counseled young vampires before... taught them safer ways of feeding . but only if he would be willing to receive it."

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

way of making you feel like his friend. effortless to talk to , you know ? bought me a drink or two. I told him I was fixing up a place we were moving into , and his face sorta lit up , and he asked me for my help with his raggedy old house. offered to pay me , 'handsomely' +

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

all. he'd float to the other end of the earth if it meant putting an end to this monster's reign of terror.

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

case. if he gets to Molly . . .❜

he paused , his voice dropping an octave , conveying his great determination.

❛ I 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 to find away to stop him.❜

he watched Khali carefully , hoping she had some kind of helpful advice for him. god, at this point he'd take anything at +

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

ma'am. I can manage. but now other people need help. the living. I ask about vampires . . . because one of them 𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘦. and he's killed others, and he's not going to stop. what if he finds out about my girlfriend ? she's definitely pushing for me not to become a cold +

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

❛ well , 𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝙗𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝 . . . ❜

he's already sorry for the outburst , but he can't help it. these terms and conditions of this . . . ' other world ' were so infuriating. he knew it wasn't Khali's fault ; she was just the kindly informant. but that didn't change +

[𝕯𝖗. 𝐊𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖎 𝐌𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖆𝖓𝖆 —— 🍁🥀 @flowersandbIood]

the sudden change in mood and subject might be enough to give her whiplash . this spirit was all over the place . but at least vampirism was one of her more familiar areas of study .

"there are many different strains of the vampire virus — some more severe than others . with proper care and regular feeding , some types can be nearly symptom-free... but all are permanent."

once again , the witch looked apologetic at the spirit , realizing that once again , that was probably not the answer he was hoping for . this wasn't uncommon — most of the time , 'Magic' was a lot less 'magical' than most people expected it to be .

"why do you ask about vampirism?"

[𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑻𝑶 .ᐟ @GallantSpook]

the fact that everything seemed to be working against him , and he felt utterly helpless to fix it. or do 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 about it.

a short exasperated sigh came from the specter. don't lose your temper , Sam.

❛ okay... I can make my peace with it if you can't help me , +
