What, the runes when they burn off the hormones? It feels like my whole body is on fire and someone's tearing out my spine. It just feels like I'm being cooked if I'm having sex regularly.

The urges don't feel bad, but they're not exactly comfortable for me sometimes. It's not easy having a conversation with someone when part of you is looking at them like a steak.

[saving_sound]

Th-th-that's terrible!

[She doesn't even want to imagine what that feels like.]

Is it... really the only solution? There's no other way to fix it...?

[samantha_grey]

There's nothing to fix, Hibiki. [She smiled at her and shook her head.] I'm a predator who feeds on sex. It's what I was like when I was born, and I've always been that. The only thing to 'fix' was figuring out how to live with people and not treat them as food.

[Her grin took on a wicked look for a second and that wretched sense of humor of hers reared its ugly head once more.] Hey, think of it this way! At least I don't like veal?

[Sam...]

[saving_sound]

...I-is there something wrong with veal?

[Derp. It's just a type of meat, isn't it...?]

I just... It feels unfair. That you have to hurt so much to make sure everyone else is safe, too.

[samantha_grey]

... it was a joke. If people are steaks to me, then veal would be...

[She snickered again. She wasn't going to fill the blanks in on a horribly inappropriate joke, especially since she'd made one glaring exception with an alien for the last year.]

And maybe it is unfair, but it's better than going into a feeding frenzy. And, besides, if I have sex often enough it isn't that bad.

[saving_sound]

Veal would be...?

[Though she's quickly distracted by the mention of sex again, her head dipping down with embarrassment. Ahhh, it's so awkward...]

Th-then I'm glad...?

[samantha_grey]

heh, don't worry about it. It's just a bad joke, I promise. And thank you. It'll be alright. It's just something I have to deal with. You don't really need to worry about it, you know.

[saving_sound]

Still...

[She's a big sister at home; fretting over people is a habit she's developed in full force.]

...If there's anything I can do to help, even if it's just... just talking for a distraction or something, please let me know.

[samantha_grey]

Distractions don't really help, Hibiki. Honestly there's only one kind of help that I need for this. [Swallow] You're a little young for my tastes, no offense.

[saving_sound]

[She honestly kind of expected as much, but let it never be said she didn't try.]

...It was sort of a long shot, wasn't it...

[samantha_grey]

A little. It's kind of like trying to play with a dog when the food's ready and they're hungry. And I honestly didn't think you were offering that, so... just a little bit.

[saving_sound]

...Ah.

[Yeah, she has enough pets to know about how well that goes, even if none of them are actually dogs...]

It just... totally doesn't work at all, huh?

[Welp.]

[samantha_grey]

It's not that big a deal most of the time. And if it is... then I want one thing. Talking's just going to get on my nerves or make me want it more.

[saving_sound]

So... if you are like that, I shouldn't talk to you.

[Oops.]

[samantha_grey]

It's not that bad, but you won't be helping that thing. Just don't try to talk me out of it. If I say I need that, then that's what I'm going to want, ok?

[saving_sound]

[Determined nodding!]

O-okay! I'll be sure to remember!

[samantha_grey]

hehe, did you still have any other questions?

[saving_sound]

I think that's everything. Um... Thanks for explaining it all.

[Even though it turned out pretty awkward for... well, most of it.]

[samantha_grey]

No problem. Take care of yourself, Hibiki.
