Louis smiled "I can do all of those things, I simply do not desire them" he swallowed, figuring, he could go without feeding for another night.

László gave Louis a concerned look.
"Are you all right?"

"Mmm? Yes I'm fine" he replied unconvincingly "don't worry about me."

Hesitantly--he didn't quite know how friendly he could be with the vampire--László reached out and placed a reassuring hand on Louis' arm.
"You look paler than usual."

"I-" he sighed "I haven't fed in quite some time, trying my best to avoid it as per usual."

He furrowed his brow.
"But why? Isn't it what you need to live?"

"Yes" he patted Laszlo's hand absentmindedly "but I'd rather feel this way than have to feed more often."

"Louis..." He said, his tone a chastising one.
"That can't be good for you. Why don't you want to?"
No, he didn't know anything about being a vampire, aside from the stories he'd read. And they were just stories. You couldn't say what parts were made up or not.

"Because" he rubbed his face "I'd rather not kill a person, simply because I'm thirsty, not to say that I do... but it has happened."

"So you can control yourself. You did with me, before." He said gently.
A thought occurred to him. One that surprised him, and frightened him a little. Could he even do that? Would Louis even go for it?
Could he offer up himself?
Thinking of his last experience, that other vampire, the one that had hurt him so much...but this was Louis.

"I- almost didn't" he replied, slightly ashamed "it's an unfortunate side effect of my circumstances, once you begin, it get's so very difficult to stop. It's ecstasy in liquid form."

"Would you be able to stop if it was someone you knew?"
His heart was beating faster. He was really going to do this, wasn't he? Or at least, suggest it.

"I might but-" he stopped himself and looked up at Laszlo "no, no Laszlo, I couldn't, I wouldn't, not to you."

"You bit me before. You stopped then, and I was just a stranger that time."

"No" he shook his head "I can't, I- just can't" he closed his eyes.
