Location: Hallway -> Velvet's Condo, Umbra Rose
Timeframe: Early Morning
Suzy rolled her eyes. Floozie? What, were they back in primary school? If you wanted to get under her figurative skin, you had to try better than that.
Ignoring the ignorant, Suzy waited for Theria to grab Velvet, letting the gorgon take the lead. There wasn't much Suzy could do, after all, being a ghost and all. A part of Suzy had felt horrible for not being able to do much more, given Velvet's current state. Sure, Velvet had shown quite the bravado earlier, her confidence blazing at the thought that she was nigh-invincible. But what about that small, tiny percent, where the vampire's constitution would fail herself? What was Suzy to do in that scenario?
That's right. She couldn't do anything. She would've been helpless.
Unless...
No. Suzy shook her head at the thought. Not happening. There had to be another way.
By then, the three of them had arrived to Velvet's room. It was just as Suzy had last left it—dark, desolate, and the epitome of a NEET's dream. The ghost's eyes lingered on Velvet, watching the vampire as she broke loose from Theria and raced to the blood-filled refrigerator, ripping the door right off its hinges.
Keeping her mouth shut, Suzy said, or rather wrote, nothing as Velvet began to down bloodbags like a school kid chugging their Capri-Sun. There was a time and place for words, but not now. Suzy hadn't wanted Velvet to feel like she was judging her; that the vampire was making a fool of herself as blood dribbled upon the condo flooring.
Once the vampire had finished, she moved to her computer, clearly wanting to talk about what had just happened. Following her lead, Suzy flew over to Velvet's side, and began to deliberately manipulate the electrical impulses that radiated from the PC to type her response on the screen. Now was the opportune time to speak.
"I..." Suzy paused. She hadn't felt entirely comfortable with what she was about to say, but chose to say it nonetheless. It was better for the both of them to not avoid it, like Suzy had done for so long. "I know how it feels, Vel. The desperation."
Another pause before the flashing line began to move forward once more.
"My hands were tied when I drowned. I tried so, so hard to swim upwards, but my lungs gave out before I could reach the surface. Sometimes you just can't help but to give in when you're pushed to the limit—I'm proof of that."
