yeah, i'd had the same line of thought. [ hence why she'd been doing it to herself. ] the thing is, it did make me sick. for the rest of the week when we got back to town. did that happen to you?

[vampirella]

let me guess, puking up a storm with a green glint in your eye? it's been going around.

( evasive? yes. but look, she's gotta be cagey about the fact she was the OG spirit snacker, ok??? )

[ultraviolents]

[ and her boyfriend's spirit child started crying whenever she was downstairs, which had made trying to heal from her injuries a real blast. ]

to you, or did you pick up on that from the network?

[ or somewhere else? ]

[vampirella]

( ELEkTRA WHY ARE YOU SO NOSY )

i've seen it around with others that got kidnapped. in particular, the ones forced fed. i'm not sure if it's happened to anyone who only experienced the bleeding.

[ultraviolents]

[ look when you're not doing much but trying to recuperate from blood letting in between alternating bouts of violent stomach cramps and nausea, you have a lot of time to reflect on the details of your kidnapping. ]

not everyone who was force fed got sick. and i don't think anyone mentioned their eyes turning green.

[vampirella]

probably because they're puking their guts out just like you were, but take my word for it. i know of at least a few.

makes you wonder if that's what their intention was, doesn't it?

( this did not seem like an accident, or spirits unable to properly communicate. the spirits were trying to accomplish something. she cannot fathom why the green eyes would want to force others to join their ranks but it's also sure what it all seems like. )

[ultraviolents]

[ damn. she hadn't really thought that would work, but she'd been hoping it would. ]

i think we're past the point of wondering. except for how they decided who they were going to take.

how did they find you?

[vampirella]

( you might smell a rat, Elektra, but she's not squeaking quite yet. she's had practice staying mum, she's pretty good at it. )

think there's a pattern? because i can't say i spotted one, but maybe

i was walking home in the dark. i made it easy on them. what about you?

[ultraviolents]

i don't know if there is one, but thinking there was something specific about us they saw and wanted makes me less angry than it being something random.

i was in bed. my boyfriend was either downstairs or they made it so i couldn't see him, but neither of us are light sleepers. they had me outside before i could even scream.

[vampirella]

you saw the ramshackle bunch of kidnapped, right? not sure the pattern would be flattering, if there was one

yeesh. what a wakeup call. not sure if i feel better or worse getting nabbed off the street

[ultraviolents]

you were there, too.

getting snatched off the street requires less manipulation, but both are bad.

[vampirella]

yeah, which is why i wouldn't be comforted by a pattern if i were you

they can fuck with our brains, right? maybe that's how they can steal us off the street and out of bed with nobody being the wiser

or your bf sleeps like a rock, one of the two
