02 - Sink into your Embrace
[Action A - 2240 Stevens Road - Friday, April 6th, morning]
[What was this in the mail? Packages? Three of them? One big, one small, and one envelope, all addressed to her? But she knew better than to open any of them in the open. Not with the sun shining. So she had taken them inside, and because she was impatient, brought them down to the light-sheltered basement so she could open them now.
To make a long story short, she now had a bloody nose, an assortment of bee stings, and a makeshift paper sign on the now-locked basement reading "DO NOT ENTER - CONTAINS BEES". Also, that remaining envelope. Sitting on the living room couch, she held it between her thumb and forefinger and fought with herself to hold off on the opening. There was nowhere dark enough. Nowhere secure enough. Not in this house. And the daytime made her sluggish, anyway.
The sun really needed to hurry and set.]
[Action B - general vicinity of 2240 Stevens Road, early evening]
[When the sun had finally dipped far enough under the horizon, Natalie ripped open the envelope from the town. In it was a slip of paper with a single dot of blood upon it. She was confused for only a moment, for suddenly she remembered the knives and the bleeding and the wounds and that single drop of Father's vitae passing her lips. She was experiencing it all over again. Dying again. Rising again.
There's a hideous scream from inside the house. And then not long after that, out staggers Natalie, bloodied from the wrists down, eyes rapidly sinking and darkening and full of hunger. Pedestrians at this time of night, beware.]
[Action C - 1490 Kramden, evening]
[There's an insistent banging on the front door. Ilsa had made promises, and Natalie fully intended to collect on them.]

I'm kinda late, myself D:
There were bees in one of the boxes. [She tears her gaze away from the remaining envelope, and looks to Lili instead.]
...did you receive anything?
no subject
Not yet. I wonder what's the hold up. What about you?
no subject
[And a not-mom with bee stings that are slowly reducing in size...
She snaps her wrist, the paper of the envelope making a "fwip" sound.]
I have this. I'll open it tonight. I can't be sure of what it is, but if it's what I want, then.. yes. I'm opening it tonight.
no subject
Might be a power if yours came in an envelope. My past two regains were like that. Do you want me to stick around when you open it just in case?
no subject
[She gives Lili an uneasy look, hearing the suggestion that she "stick around". She should be honest. She should be deceitful. She should, for the sake of a peaceful haven from the world, not somehow harm this girl if what she gets back is important enough.]
...no. You shouldn't be here when I open it. I don't know how I might act.
no subject
[She may not admit it but she wants to keep an eye on her not!mom. She hated the idea of being by herself in a house of full of drones.]
no subject
[...yes. Honesty. She'd go with honesty.]
I'm a vampire. Or I should be. If they've somehow stuffed "being a vampire" into a little envelope, then I'm going to be a very unpleasant person to be around until I... settle myself.
I'd prefer you go visit someone tonight.
