[b][color=f26522]Victor[/color][/b] [@KimmiNinja] [@Emma] [@EmzyOfNeverland] Victor merely nodded as his father walked off. He didn’t really feel like following his old man towards the trouble. He had been under pressure enough for the last few days. No, today he’d dedicate to catching up with his preferred siblings. Liz was already out the door. So he would have to ask how she was doing another time. Instead, he found Nik and Maggie. With a bright smile, he approached them, only noticing Alice a bit too late. [color=f26522]“Ah Nik. Long time no seen.”[/color] He exclaimed. [color=f26522]“So, my dearest brother. Five-hundred years old. Must have been one hell of a party.”[/color] Then he turned to Maggie. Despite her somewhat orthodox view on humans, Victor still loved her very much. [color=f26522]“And Maggie. Father has asked me to aid you in decorating the hall. But I think that with ‘aid’ he meant reign you in a little.”[/color] There was no scorn in his voice. Only teasing happiness. [color=f26522]“Though, truth be told. I don’t really feel like reigning anything in.”[/color] he threw a swift wink towards his older sister, hoping she’d get the message: do whatever you like. Not that she would need his permission on anything. Once Maggie set her mind on something, she’d move the earth itself to get what she wants. And then there was Alice, and he caught her in a quite unfortunate moment. Him and his parents had an unspoken agreement. Alice preferred to keep her condition to herself and it would seem that their parents somewhat supported her in this. Victor felt that he shouldn’t talk about it with his younger siblings. This left most of them guessing why Victor disliked Alice so much. But his older siblings undoubtedly knew his feelings for his little sister. [color=f26522]“I’m surprised you’re still walking around.”[/color] He started. His voice was so much colder towards the younger vampire than to his other siblings. [color=f26522]“How many heart attacks did I miss? Three? Four?”[/color] Yes, it was mean. It was beyond mean. It was vicious. Hurtful. But he didn’t get many moments like these. Where him and Alice were either alone or among his older brothers and sisters. Of course, he would be devastated should she actually die. She was family after all. But that did not take the edge off his remarks.
