Hey - So there isn't a Hallmark card for "I'm sorry I drained your emotions while we were fighting a demon", but I am. It was a bad move and a violation of a lot of things. And if you promise you won't punch me, I'll apologize in person. I don't blame you for wanting to punch me, but I try to avoid that.

I’m not mad. Especially considering the alternative was all of us dying. It was just bizarre, and I don’t know how to process it still.

I've been told it's a weird experience. Never dealt with it myself. If you have any questions I'll do my best to answer them, or there's definitely a spy or two I've drained if talking to someone else about it would be more helpful

Yeah. Maybe. Hard to say what's from the whole feelings-vampire situation and what's from spending 3 days in hell running on empty.

Well if it's the sudden resurgence of old feelings and trauma you thought you'd put behind you, or you've had addiction problems in the past and you're going through withdrawals, etc., it's me. If it's general "what the fuck is my life" that's probably from three days in hell.

Gotcha.

Is it to soon to call you Dracula or do we not find that a little funny?

[xp_topaz]

I’ve been called worse. As long as you don’t start calling me by Twilight character names
