"I'm not... nervous." John forced himself to take a long, deep breath, then reached for her arm. "Poet, I mean it. The Vampires are murderers. Don't go close to them, they've always been irrational. And I'm not a soldier. Yes, we may fall, but we live until we do. I don't care what comes afterwards. We don't fear the reaper. That's what unites us."
[Huh. The Vampires falling because of Sven and Mina? That'd be interesting... Muse fled.]

( Hey, that's Poet's thought. XD I'm not saying it's going to happen. )
Poet watched him, as he grabbed her arm. She smiled and arched an eyebrow. "Ah, yes. Murderers.", she let the word slid out of her mouth and linger on the hair, in a sort of calm, whispering hiss. She sighed and smirked, shaking her head. "Commando... We are all murderers. We murdered our dignity, our humanity and our civism when we got here. We had to, we were forced to. It's a matter of survival, is it not?", she smiled. "You know, people think I am insane because I speak what I think, and usually I speak the deepest, silenced doubts of everyone's insides. So you call me crazy, you call me crazy because you do not want to believe that those doubts may have an answer, and it may be a rational one. You do not want to hear or understand what we all became. You are blind, deaf and mude. We're all lost, every single one of us. And we are all alone; even when in a Tribe, in a family, we're all alone. Who are we trying to fool, Commando? Ourselves? A self lie only lasts if we do not question, if we don't give the mind some orgasms.", she poked her head softly. "We're lost, we're alone. Above all, we are nothing but mere youths. Yes, we are. Mature or not, we are. The olders are not above eighteen, and the youngers are about ten. That is the truth, that is why you create Tribes: to create an illusion. I see past that, and thus, I am insane.", she snorted and shook her head. "I and you, and them and she, he and it, we are all surrounded by murderers. Some more evident than others."

John was silent, but snarled inwardly. Don't you dare to lecture me about murderers. I've seen how they act, what they do to those children, how they do those studies on mutations. They are the murderers. We are only trying to survive. A big family? That'd crumple on itself, we are too different from each other. We group because we need each other's skills, but those groups have limits. It has been like this since the dawn of mankind; else, we would always have been a single group - we're not. She's fooling herself, but she has a curious line of thought.
"I'm not fooling anyone, Poet. I follow what I believe; that was my choice when I first came to New Pork, and I'm not planning to change my mind about it." Useless - she'd only go on ranting about being alone inside the tribe. Why argue? They wouldn't convince each other. The girl would do as she willed, crazy as she was.

Poet arched her eyebrows and smirked. "Sure, Commando. I bet you do.", she laughed and scratched the back of her neck tiredly. "Say, I'll keep away from the Vampires if you give me that lighter. Hmn?", she nudged him playfully on his stomach and grinned - talking as if they had just had a casual, soft conversation and not the heated arguement.

John edged away from her touch. "Great choice you're giving me there", he said blankly. "Help you torture your lungs or get you killed for certain." Repressing a sigh, he slided his left hand back into te pocket, taking the lighter out and offering it to Poet. "I keep my part of the deal, you keep yours", he warned without changing expression. He shot another blank look at Reason's window. "So. You're going now?" He was restraining himself not to beg. Please?
[Join the club. <_<]

Poet snickered and snatched the lighter from his fingers quickly, like a thief with nimble fingers snatches the bread poking from the baker's chest. She slipped it in her jacket's pocket, and tipped her hat idly. "Thanks.", she snickered and turned around, sliding her hands on her pockets, walking as if she had no care in the world, as if New Pork was an amusement park.
"I won't go near them, at least, not today.", she said, as she walked away, raising a hand, so that John understood she was talking to him - but never turning her face to him. "Oh, yes. Not to the Vampires' nest.", she laughed, sliding her hand back into her pocket. "Kindness will be your downfall.", she said one last time. "Say hi to the others for me.", she snickered, before slowly disappearing down the streets.

John exhaled deeply. Thank God. "See you soon, Poet." Hopefully, not too soon. That girl should really take care... Straightening his back, with both hands on the pockets, he walked back into the building. Now we just have to keep away from Reason's temper... And find Lucifer.
