His smile twitches for a moment the first time Erik keeps himself from swearing. [i]'That is nice. I am glad he has taken that to heart at least. Perhaps this will get better faster than I thought'[/i] His heart drops a bit when he hears that Erik had been vomiting. [i]'I know I heard something last night, I remember waking up once. That must have been when he. . .'[/i] He sighs softly. As he keeps talking Alexi slips out of bed and pulls the potion Joseph had left for out and slides it into his pocket. Kneeling down he slides a box out from under his bed. The lock is fingerprint activated so as he presses his thumb to it he looks over at Erik as he falls silent. “I am sorry you are so uncomfortable, but I am afraid you will be that way for a while. Also, I thank you for your efforts to stay civil, I really appreciate them. . .” His voice trails off as he pops open the safety box. When he'd picked up the potion from the night stand he had done so in such a way there there is no way Erik could have seen it. So when the box opens to reveal another potion, in an identical bottle, he looks to Erik to see his reaction.

Slowly he pick up the phial and holds in his hand gently. He closes the box with his foot, sliding it and the rest of it's contents back under his bed. Joseph knows not to look under his bed under any circumstances, that being Alexi's “Private Storage” and all. The potion glows a gentle purple and for a long moment the human just stares at it, a blank expression on his face. Eventually he slips it into the opposite pocket to the one he put the first phial in and gives Erik a sad look As he walks past the vampire's bed, well out of reach he murmurs, “I'll have Joseph extract some of my blood today and put it in cold storage until you are ready. I can only pray that your suffering is shorter than his was. However, somehow, I doubt it. You really are a strong and admirable individual.” With this being said Alexi moves quickly off to the bathroom, not really wanting to be around for the fallout should it come.

Once in the washroom he pulls out the first phial and dumps it's contents down the sink. He slips the bottle back into his pocket, knowing that he'll have to get rid of it somewhere away from the house. [i]'I can not risk any of the servants, especially Joseph,. Coming across it and wondering. The design of these bottles are unique'[/i] He whines softly to himself as he recalls the look of his acquisition. So much pain, so much suffering. Alexi's heart really goes out to him, but he steels his resolve as he bathes and when he's finally ready to re-enter the room he is in complete control of himself. Moving behind his wardrobe door once more he slips out of his pants and picks out what he wants to wear today. He has a few errands to run, which will give him plenty of opportunity to dump the phial, but he remains silent for now should Erik wish to speak. He knows there is most likely a very angry rant the vampire wishes to spill from what he said earlier so he gives Erik the chance to vent.
