Cale stumbled and caught himself on Zane, who remained an immovable brick wall. "Lance, Jesus! Would someone tell me what the hell is going on?!"

2015-07-10 08:09:06

"I'm fine Lance. It was nothing, I just-"

"It /isn't/ fine. You had an anxiety attack."

2015-07-10 08:10:27

🌀

Zane was biting his lip, trying to remain silent and not interfere, and Cale looked him over again. He really was looking better, he wasn't flushed anymore, though still pretty tired, and...where were his bandages? Fuck that, WHY WAS THERE ANOTHER LIPSTICK STAIN RIGHT ON HIS GODDAMN NECK?! Slowly, gritting his teeth so as not to yell his head off, he said "Zane, /did she bite you?/" "................." was all he received in response. This was all he needed. He turned his fiery gaze on Ivory and straightened up again, wavering slightly.

2015-07-10 08:13:58

●

Lipstick-SHIT SHIT SHIT! She started to tremble again.

Immediately Lance pulled away and faced Cale. His expression went from worry to seriousness. "Cale I swear to god if you give Ivory another anxiety attack I will bitch slap you into next week and make it look like a bloody accident. Do you understand?" His tone was as serious as his face was.

2015-07-10 08:17:54

🌀

The glare remained, but he restrained himself enough to not walk up and punch her. "Lance. /She could've killed him/."

2015-07-10 08:20:34

●

"Well its obvious she didn't, and that's a fucking miracle for her first feeding. So I suggest you consider you and Zane both extremely lucky."

2015-07-10 08:21:36

🌀

What was also obvious was that, despite the current terrifying aura surrounding Lance at the moment, Cale was not letting this drop. He might bring it up later. But he wouldn't forget. Zane had begun wringing his hands, not looking up at any of them.

2015-07-10 08:24:25

●

"That's what I thought. I will talk to you later Cale. Ivory, lets go." Her took her wrist and gently led her out of the home.

Ivory took one last look at Zane and frowned before leaving with Lance. Fuck, all of this was her fault.

2015-07-10 08:26:19

🌀

As soon as they were out of earshot, Cale slammed his fist into the wall, denting the plaster. "FUCK. DID SHE EVEN THINK ABOUT WHAT SHE WAS DOING?! 'Anxiety attack', MY ASS." ".....Cale..." Zane finally spoke up. "I was the one who suggested it, and....she actually does have anxiety attacks, thank you for not causing another..........." Cale looked at him as he spoke and then let out a breath. God. He couldn't stay mad at him, especially when he was like this. "...you okay, man?" "Um, yes, I think, physically, at least, I feel better than when you left...." "You look better too. Did you take something?" "No..." "You've got to be kidding me. /That/ made you better?!" He gave a long sigh, went over to the couch, and picked up the phone, dialing Tassek's number.

"Hello?"

"Kid. I don't think that was a cold."

"What? Wait, are you sick too?!"

"Yeah. Zane was, but he got better. What's with the freak-out?"

"Why didn't you say anything??? You could've died!"

"Oh. Shit. Well anyway, Ivory bit him and I think he's good now."

"What's with your reaction?! Zane had it -- wait, bit him?"

"As much as I wish not, yeah. Hold on, the dying thing applies to him too?! /Fuck!/"

"Well he'll be fine now I think, anyways, you were saying, did she do anything else?"

"She better not have."

"Biting. Got it. Oh God, this is great! Have Zane bite you, I need to find Terezi /now/."

"Wait, have him /what/ --"

But Tassek had already hung up, and he stared at the phone, confused at that entire exchange. Then he looked over at Zane. "In the mood for a bite?" "Um. What....?"

No. Dameien was not letting Ren go through this as well. What would Ren even be like on this? Correction, what would /he/ be like on this? Well, he wasn't going to find out. He was going to find the cure if it was the last thing he did. But first...he stood in front of a...'friends' door. He knocked on it. He heard footsteps as they came to the door.

Eilliot answered. ""No Dameien I do not have-"

His words were cut off by Dameien grabbing him by the throat and pushing him into the house, closing the door behind him. "You listen to /me./ I don't give a shit what you have to say, and I really don't care if you can't do it. I need your help. Do you understand."

Eilliot nodded.

"Good." He relaxed his hold on him a bit, just enough for Eilliot to gasp for breath. "So you see, Terezi and Secu-ass have been crashing at the her old apartment for a while. I wouldn't mind it as much if they weren't completely insane with some sickness and are screaming off the walls. So I need your help to find a cure."

"Okay."

Dameien grinned. "Good and so you have some incentive to do it." He clamped down on Eilliot's neck, and quickly pulled away when the blood trickled down his neck. "I got infected, and now you are as well. Enjoy dying, asshole." He let Eilliot go and exited the home.

Eillot fell to the floor, still trying to regain his breath. The blood dripped from his shoulder to the floor. Shit. That was hard. He shakily got to his feet and grabbed a small towel from the bathroom, pressing to his neck before exiting the condo as well.

Currently, Tassek was on the phone with...Cale? This left Anndrea sitting on the couch, her slightly worry becoming fear. Day 6, no 7. When things started to go grim for those infected.

There was a knouck on the door. "I will get it" Anndrea called to Tassek before opening it.

"Anndrea..." Eilliot leaned against the doorway, the blood starting to seep through the cloth.

"..Eillie?" Her voice had concern and confusion in it.

"Help me."

2015-07-10 09:19:46

🌀

Tassek set the phone down and approached the door. "Oh, it's y--" Then he saw the bloodstained towel and blanched. "Shit. Not you too." Fortunately they had a cure now. If Cale was right. But what if he wasn't? It was spreading way too fast.

2015-07-10 09:29:45

●

Anndrea gentle got him inside. "What happened?"

"Dameien said he got this sickness thing from Seculus and Terezi. He gave it to me."

2015-07-10 09:41:29

🌀

Welp. They were all screwed. Dameien had it, everything was going to go to shit now. Especially if he gave it to Ren. He groaned and rubbed at his temples, then paused and looked back to Eilliot. "Wait, from those two? Did he meet them on the street or something?"

2015-07-10 09:42:51

●

Anndrea brought him over to the couch and quickly moved to find the first aid kit to help stop the bleeding.

"No. He said they were staying in Terezi's old apartment."

"I told you they would be there." Anndrea called from the bathroom.

2015-07-10 09:44:31

🌀

You. Have. Got. To. Be. Fucking. Kidding. Me.

Tassek facepalmed and called back "Oh, be quiet. Cale said the cure was a bite too, do you think you could test that on Eilliot?"

2015-07-10 09:51:43

●

"Gladly." She returned from the bathroom and immediately bit down on Eilliot. Yeah, she didn't forget about what happened last time.

"Ow! Ow! OW! OKAY I KNOW I FUCKED UP LAST TIME WE TALKED BUT I THAT'S NOT A REASON TO BITE THAT HARD." She pulled away and he immediately passed out.

2015-07-10 09:53:51

🌀

He caught him and almost went down himself under the weight. With a huff he moved him to the couch and frowned. "I'm gonna assume that was a good thing. What'd he even do?"

2015-07-10 09:55:50

●

"He decided to let Seculus and I play a game called 'Grand Theft Auto' without telling us what it was about." She helped Tassek shove Eilliot onto the couch.

2015-07-10 09:57:47

🌀

He blinked for a second, then burst out laughing. That was too great, even under these circumstances. God, the prude had probably freaked the fuck out the first time he came across a strip club. When he recovered he rubbed his eyes and let out a breath. "...okay. Let's go. Quick."

2015-07-10 10:00:02

●

What was so funny-nevermind. There were more important things to question. "Yes. Hurrying would be nice as well."

2015-07-10 10:01:23

🌀

Everyone had gone away, and now it was nice and quiet again. He licked the remaining blood off his lips, woah, that was weird, he wasn't totally sure why Terezi was into it, but to each their own. For a few minutes after the neighbors had made a run for it, he could hear Ren's shouts through the wall. He'd covered his ears, naturally. Now, it had been a few hours, and he was on the couch, sitting cross-legged and facing Terezi to talk to her. Occasionally he'd see bright little objects in the corners of his vision. Cool. The coffee table also appeared to be made of Jell-o, but he probably shouldn't eat it. That couldn't be sanitary.

There was one thing he was curious about, though, that the cute Dameien guy had said, and he brought it up. "Dear, what's gay?" 'You want a cock deep in your ass this very moment' didn't seem to apply to the context, so that couldn't be right.

2015-07-10 10:06:50

●

Things have calmed down for them. That was wonderful! She was tired of people anyway. Occasionally she thought the bathroom was on fire, but then she realized Seculus wasn't crying and things would be fine.

Then he asked her about homosexuality. Oh dear. Had Dameien gotten to him. "Well...I'm not gay so let me see if I can explain this. Hmmmm..." She thought for a moment. "It's like....what you and I have. The kissing. The biting. The cuddling....the dating and everything. But....instead of you and I ....it'd be you and Tassek....or me and Anndrea."

2015-07-10 10:10:46

🌀

He made a face. "Does it /have/ to be those two?"

2015-07-10 10:13:24

●

"Not exactly. It could be you and some other boy, or me and some other girl who likes girls in that way."

2015-07-10 10:14:27

🌀

"Ugh. And he called me 'little gay boy'." The lock clicked and the door slammed open, revealing Tassek on the threshold with pink wasps buzzing around his head. Seculus scowled. If they stung him, he deserved it. "Fuuuuck no, it's /them/, go away!! You're gay, right, this is a no gay zone, you're banished! Banished!" He waved his hands in a dismissing gesture.

Tassek flushed bright red. What the hell kind of a war zone had he walked into. But he ignored Seculus, walked up to Terezi, and bit her on the neck hard enough to make her bleed.
