[Katsuki was starting to smile as well, thinking about Shoto and his over-preparedness. If Katsuki was in Ellipsa all by himself, he'd probably be useless he thinks. Shoto has been so helpful ever since arrived, he can't imagine living here without him honestly.

That smile, though, fades when he's asked about what happened. And accurately pinpointed for growing too antsy to stay at home. And he sinks into the water again.]

...I wanted to help. I can provide a lotta light with my Quirk, so I thought that I could at least be useful enough to walk people home.

[What a stupid idea that was.]

I was wrong. I was really wrong... and I got attacked by a vampire of all fucking things.

[He'll lift and tilt his head a bit to show the two nasty holes in the left side of his neck. Congealed blood keeping them clotted, not that it really mattered if it kept bleeding. He couldn't die by blood loss, now.]

[Hijikata nods - it makes sense that Katsuki wanted to make himself useful. He would have done the same in his position. As for the vampire attack... well, by now, since they've been talking, he's seen those fangs even in the weak candlelight.]

You were turned.

[He says it matter-of-factly - few things can still shock a triple isekai veteran like him. Regardless, he feels for Katsuki. His life will drastically change as a result of the incident. If he can offer him any comfort, though, it's that he's been living a semi-nocturnal life as well since the establishment of the SPOON at the start of the year.]

Welcome to the night shift.

[Katsuk feels so much dread at those words. "You were turned." It's still hard for him to swallow-- it only happened a few hours ago, after all. But he'll give a soft nod of confirmation, even though Hijikata wasn't asking for it.]

There ain't anything "welcome" about this. I've been turned into an evil monster. A Villain.

[He's the natural predator to the humankind he wants to protect so much...]

If I wasn't so weak, this wouldn't have happened.

[Hijikata remains silent for a moment, mulling over Katsuki's words. He can't very well tell him otherwise on that last point, can he? If he'd been in top form, he likely would have been able to fend off and defeat the vampire. But what's done is done, so he addresses his other concern instead.]

You're not automatically a villain just because you're a vampire. Have you harmed any civilians? Caused suffering and destruction? I'd wager you haven't.

[He steeples his hands, lifting them out of the water.]

When I caught a werebest curse on Avalon, it was an adjustment, too... the bloodlust, the impulses, the heightened senses, I had to learn to manage it all. But I made it work. I'm a werebeast, but I'm still a policeman who upholds law and order.
