Shoulda been faster on the draw.

Yeah, no shit. I shouldn't have let you take the time to put on that armor.

You didn't let me, we did it together. You know we're both in control now, most of the time. Don't pretend otherwise to blame me.

I wasn't in control when you decided it would be a good idea to try to drain that entire body in the middle of monsters eating it in the hall, was I?

That's different. You know what it was like, being in here getting scraps for this long. I needed it.

You could have fucking waited and fed on some poor schmuck later.

I... I couldn't.

Fine, you couldn't. Wanna talk about how that guard shooting you made you lose your head and almost got us killed?

I'm not used to getting shot at! That's not fair, I don't have your training.

You can access it though, can't you? Study up on it. We can't have you losing it in a fight like that again. If that door hadn't covered us after it knocked us out, that would have been it. The guards that found us still barely alive could have decided to put us out of our misery and wouldn't have felt bad about it.

I was just so hungry. And angry. They did this to me. They made me this.

No. You did this to yourself, by allowing this.

A long, guttural scream rings out in the cell they were thrown back in. The blood has been cleaned off the floor, by now. Spotless.

You need to keep your eyes open more. We can't run into the line of fire like that again.

That's not fair, there was slime covering them!

Why was there slime covering them?

Well, I-

You didn't see or hear it jumping at you, that's why. I knew something was coming and you didn't let me jump us out of the way.

What am I supposed to do, just... let you take the wheel?

Yes. You take control all the time for your "hunger" and your "needs". Let me do it when I fucking hear something you don't know is there!

Fuck you.

Oh I'm sorry, do you think that's unfair? Think how I feel, pal. I told you, I have far more experience staying alive in supernatural situations than you. You barely knew there was anything other than vampires until you got here. So please for the love of god if I say "duck", duck!

Yeah. Sure. That makes sense I guess.

Don't pout. We'll get out of here, we just need to work together. Use our strengths. My brain, your brawn.

Hey!
