[Mike hates seeing him start to cry. He wants to brush the tears away but Katsuki is already doing that with his new clawed fingers. His heart breaks hearing the way he refuses to listen and feed. He knows it is so much easier for him to say than for Katsuki to hear or even think about but it is a reality. One that is crashing down on his son and threatening to rob him of his greatest dream and his life's purpose.]

Son, not all vampires are villains. There are good vampires too. Just like there are bad ones. You don't have to hunt people to feed.

You can talk to people. You could ask if those you know and are close too would be willing to feed you from time to time. We can see about bagged blood and how that'll work. Or even animal blood.

There are options. ...But refusing to eat is what is going to get you to hurt someone really bad. Refusing to eat is going to let the hunger take over. It won't be you. It'll be like some animal wearing your skin and all you can do is watch as it chooses the blood instead.

[Katsuki doesn't want to listen to Mike, but he has to. He has to because everything Mike says is true, and whether he likes it or not... it'll be worse for him mentally if he ends up snapping and killing somebody. The logic of the situation douses his angry flames almost instantly.

And maybe he's right that there's good vampires. Maybe he's right that they won't have to hunt people down. But right now? He can't accept any of that as possibilities. He just feels... awful. Horrible. Evil.]

...I.. I won't let it take over.

[He says that, but he sounds absolutely defeated. He can't get away from this new fate of blood drinking, and he knows this. As much as he wants to kick and scream and refuse like a petulant child-- he can't.]

I don't want to hurt anybody.

[He'll feed, is what he's saying. He's giving up.]

[livesoutofspite]

I know this isn't easy. But I'm going to be here with you. I'm going to help you in every way I can. I promise.

[Mike gently takes Katsuki's hand and starts to lead him through the dark streets again, if he'll let him.]

I know you don't. And I believe in you. I think you can do this and never hurt anyone. If anyone can do that, it's you, Kitkat.

[Katsuki will let him, but he follows with his head firmly down. Walking slowly, and unable to look anywhere but at his feet. It just feels so... hopeless. And he feels helpless. Even with his dad here to help him every step of the way, as he promises, it's hard not to feel like everything was just... over.

But he'll, at the very least, try not to let it get to him that deeply. He tries to distract his deeper, darker thoughts by listening to what Mike says. How he has the upmost faith in Katsuki to figure out a way to be this monster without having to seriously injure anyone.

Katsuki is still unaware that he was the one who bit Mike, so he at least can feel as though he has a fighting chance. At being a good Vampire, and not one that hunts innocent people down for snacks.]

...why do you keep calling me "Kitkat"?

[Katsuki asks that, as it's a great distraction while they find someone for him to feed off of.]
