Fai was heading to the shops to spend the day relaxing. The past couple days he had woken up in the morning feeling a little under the weather, which was rather odd for the upbeat vampire. He didn't think much about it, figuring it might be a trick of the bubble. If it could turn people into strange creatures, it also could have the power to make a vampire feel ill.

After moving around for awhile, he would feel slightly better. That day he had decided to finally venture out and get some lunch. But as he traveled that feeling of weakness washed over him again. He reached out and placed his hand against the side of the building he was next to as he tried to wait it out.

"I wonder if I've been pushing myself to do too much lately.." As he stood there a slow realization hit him. There was one activity he had not done recently that was vital to his continued survival.

"I can't just do that..I need..maybe the store.." He knew there was other vampires in this world and that they had managed to survive using other means. It was something he should have thought about before that point but Fai wasn't filled with any sort of blood lust. He was still getting used to the fact he had to survive with out Kurogane around. He didn't want to have to drink the blood of others unless it was absolutely necessary. But now he knew why he felt rundown. It had become necessary.

He turned towards the direction he knew a store was at, but it wasn't going to happen. His legs buckled and he fell forward.

The store would be fine.

[applepies]

Alright... [And Asato brings him there.] Are you here since a long time, Fai-san ?

[behind_my_smile]

I arrived in April..so I guess its been a few months now. [Fai looks around, wondering where he might find what he needs..]

How about you, Asato-san?

[applepies]

I arrived just a few days ago, I didn't meet much people yet. Well, except the one who also comes from my world...

[behind_my_smile]

There is another from your world here? That is good. It makes settling in much easier.

Late !

[applepies]

Mm... Yes, I think so. You know him maybe, Tatsumi Seiichirou ?

[behind_my_smile]

[He blinks a few times in surprise then smiles brightly.] I do know Tatsumi-san! We cook together every week.

[applepies]

Ah... [Oh, Asato does not like that smile.] I see.

[behind_my_smile]

He's very nice. I enjoy visiting with him.

[applepies]

I think he mentioned a friend cooking with him... Is that you ?

[behind_my_smile]

Probably! He hasn't really said that he was cooking with anyone else.

[applepies]

Mm... Then you'll see me around a lot. Tatsumi-san and I are living together now.

[behind_my_smile]

I'm glad he wont have to stay in the house alone! It's always fun to have a roommate.

[applepies]

Yes... Do you have one ?

[behind_my_smile]

No, I don't..though the apartment is certainly big enough for one.

[applepies]

Mm... Don't you feel lonely ?

[behind_my_smile]

[That's a dangerous question but Fai is the master of hiding everything behind a mask and so his smile doesn't falter.]

It's alright. I can go out and see people and everyone is always just a call away with our devices.

[applepies]

Yes, that's true... [But even with that, Asato would feel extremely lonely if Tatsumi wasn't around.]

[behind_my_smile]

[Fai is a master when it comes to loneliness. He heads into the store and looks around.]

Maybe someday I'll get a roommate. But for now its okay.

[applepies]

Probably... [Tsuzuki chooses a few sweets for himself and then shows some chocolate bars to Fai.]

Would those be good for you ?

[behind_my_smile]

[Fai nods with a smile.] I'm sure those will help..[He spots one aisle in particular.]

I'll be right back! You keep picking out some good things. [And he'll be off~]

[applepies]

Ok ! [And Asato innocently keeps choosing delicious food to bring back hom.]

[Fai finds the medical cabinet with the blood and pulls out a packet. He stares at it uncertainly for a moment then opens it slowly. He leans his back against the shelves for support as that weakness washes over him again. The smell of the blood fills his nostrils, activating the vampire in him almost immediately. He glances around quickly before bringing the pack to his mouth and starts to drink. He decides to just take a little for now, to lower the risk of being caught.]

[applepies]

[Asato wanders through the shelves, looking at the treasures they hide and his arms are soon full of sweets, different kind of sodas and some toiletries. He finally reaches the medical cabinet and if he is surprised by the sight of Fai drinking from a pack of blood, he tries not to show it.

After all, he saw many stranger things than this.]

Y-you're a vampire ?

[behind_my_smile]

[Fai's vampire senses were keen but even he is surprised when Asato walks up. His shoulders jerk slightly and he very nearly drops the pouch. He looks away, that golden eye holds a touch of shame.]

Yes..I haven't fed since being here so that is why I wasn't feeling well..
