[He's sprawled in Walter's bed, sheets mussed, a book barely dangling from his fingertips, inches away from the floor, pages fanning out around his pale, childish hand. The NV is on the floor, skewed to an angle, capturing both the book and the vampire on the bed in the tangle of sheets, who appears to not realize the device turned on when it hit the floor.]

The disgusting taste of that human food lingers. The desire to consume it was not my own, I'm sure of that. Tch. Even a fledgling knows not to eat human food.

It even overpowers the delicious memory of maiden Hellsing blood and the virile bouquet of my partner's lingering taste.

[He looks directly at the camera and smiles a sharkish smile. Nope. He knew it was on.]

Oops.

[ A shadow tendril clicks it off.]

Unlikely.

[integra_hellsing]

You're going to have to get up shortly. I told you we were going shopping for an electric blanket, and I meant it.

[tinyvampiregod]

For an electric blanket, I can rouse myself.

[integra_hellsing]

Good. I'd like to go sometime today... I think that you and the Police Girl would enjoy them.

[tinyvampiregod]

At your discretion, my future Master.

[integra_hellsing]

Be up and ready, then, in twenty minutes. We'll leave then.

[tinyvampiregod]

Ready. My future Master.

[ Aaaaaaaaand ACTION ]

[ Waiting downstairs is, naturally, Integra. She's smoking while she waits for her lazy vampire to drag himself out of Walter's bed, of course -- something tells her that she's going to need all the nicotine she can get to make it through this trip. ]

[tinyvampiregod]

[He's not there, then suddenly he is, at her side, having oozed in through the shadows and is now sliding his childishly small hand into her own.]

[integra_hellsing]

[ Well this is special. She's pretty sure she's never going to get used to a tiny Alucard. Either way, she calmly takes one last drag off of her cigar, simply dropping the poor vampire's hand. ]

I'm almost certain you can cross the street on your own, you don't need my hand. Also, you will have to endure the sun for a bit... if it would make you more comfortable, perhaps there is an umbrella or something you can use lying around, hm?

[tinyvampiregod]

[He huffs as she drops his hand, but his grin is wide and full of shark fangs] Not feeling particularly maternal, Integral? [He's teasing.]

Walter usually holds my parasol for me. [And then he's simply pulling the frilly white lace thing out of nowhere and opens it.]

[integra_hellsing]

Perhaps if you were a real child. [ Except probably not. Maybe. Who knows. ] Somehow, I think you can manage on your own without my help.

[ There is a pause, and she just... stares. ] Unfortunately for you, I am not Walter, so you'll be holding it on your own. Honestly, I never thought I would see you with something so... frilly.

[tinyvampiregod]

[He huffs and unfurls it with a snap] I hadn't even intended to ask.

[integra_hellsing]

Hm. Let's go. [ Stuffing her hands into her pockets, she exits the house. The sun is out and bright, yes, but it's definitely nothing that parasol of his can't handle. ]

I've never taken you shopping before, and there's probably a good reason for it. At home, if something is needed, usually Walter will get it or order it. I'm going to ask that you attempt to act civil to anyone we may encounter.

[tinyvampiregod]

[He smiles and it's sharp and white, teeth framed by bloodless lips.]

I am always civil, Integral. Arthur seems me out and sometimes Walter and I go off together on slow evenings.

Ah, perhaps you keep me as a shut in? How terrible. Unless all the company I need is yours.

[integra_hellsing]

You are most certainly not a shut in, although you do complain that the things I send you out to do are far too easy. The final orders I gave you at home, however, should have provided you with enough of a challenge for a while, at least.

You hardly need my company, either. You have the Police Girl... even with her, on your downtime you tend to just sit in the basement and do nothing.

[tinyvampiregod]

Tch. How boring.

[integra_hellsing]

It's your decision, not mine. I don't order you to just laze about all day. On occasion you will come upstairs and harrass me, but lately we've been fairly busy.

[tinyvampiregod]

Laze about? What else would I do, Integral.

[integra_hellsing]

I don't know. Clean up the mess you make in the basement instead of forcing the Police Girl to do it. Something useful.

I can't complain, really. You and I get along well at home, and that's all that really matters.

[tinyvampiregod]

You assisted in making the mess, Integral.

Do we? Reassuring to know.

[integra_hellsing]

I meant at home, Alucard.

Mm, I suppose. [ She gives the vampire more freedom than she should, certainly more than her grandfather or father ever did. A happy vampire makes for a happy Integra, after all; she's not stupid. ]

[tinyvampiregod]

The future looks grand. Tell me, is Walter aged in your future? [He tips his head and asks politely.]

[integra_hellsing]

...Does it. [ That statement is quiet, moreso than she'd meant for it to be... and she visibly stiffens at Alucard's question. Did the vampire know of the future, then? Of what was to become...?

...No. It was an innocent question. She could lie for now. ]

Yes, why wouldn't he be?

[tinyvampiregod]

More polite than asking if he died. [He might be lying, too.]

WIth you, at least, that future. [He likes Arthur well enough, but Integra, oh there is a story there.]
