Daph's tears dried up at the thought of being apart of something. She had always been a sort of "lone wolf" but here was a chance to do something with other people--people that treated her like...like a friend. Perhaps , Daphne thought, this is what I'm missing...maybe this is why I've felt so alone and so willing to die. A slight smile spread across her red lips, as she thought about this revelation. She turned her sparkling eyes, that were still a little red from crying, to Rosemary and to Black. Her cheeks were flushed, and her mascara pooled underneath her eyes, streams of it dried upon her cheeks. But despite her horrid appearance, Daphne's pleasure showed through.
"You know," She said quietly and thoughtfully, "Today is the day when I turned into a vampire.... it's always this day that I feel the "burn" of my 200 years upon this world...I did--as you know--for a little while... But now…now I don't feel it. Thank you for including me in this "Limbo's military" Thing..." She paused, "For years I've thought I was alone. I thought everyone was scared to be my friend or something. Every time I had "Friends" I’d accidentally kill someone...or I’d be caught sucking... or something like that... I was always moving from place to place trying to find my niche..." Again she paused, yet this time she smiled, "But you guys accepted me. Thank you." Daphne winced at her own sappiness, but then shrugged it off. She knew these people wouldn't care. She had let Rosemary and Black into her own secret place. She let them into her heart, where so many before had entered but shortly left. Suddenly a laugh bubbled up from inside Daphne's chest. She felt like she must share it.
Daphne turned her position on the couch and hugged Black, "Thanks," She whispered to Black. She pulled apart and stood up, however her knees buckled and she went down again. Daphne giggled and stood up, this time without buckling. She walked over to Rosemary and hugged her, "Thank you," She said, "I would love to be apart of...erm... whatever it is." Again she laughed, "What is this "military" thing, anyway?" Daphne paused in her emotional day to realize how quickly she had turned from extremely depressed, to giggly, in an hour or so time. Later, she would think again about this day and notice that the rapid change of emotion was because she finally had someone to sort of empathize with her; She finally had companions to share her long, sad story with. She felt like this day no longer marked the beginning of her long lasting years with its dark consequence, but instead it marked the beginning of what Daph considered--and hoped--a long friendship with these two people. ((Long enough? lol... man, this took me like an hour...lol))

That's in part what Rosemary worries about with her new friends, but they seem to accept her and not run away for good when bad things happen. 'Sucking' I don't have a problem with seeing being raised by a vampire, but I don't really care for watching it either sometimes, especially if I don't know the person you're biting, so don't mind me if I make a hasty exit until you are done. *Doesn't really want to get such a picture in her mind... Rosemary is usually more gentle and careful with her friends, but when it comes to strangers... she suspects she's not because she always does it far away from her.* The black skinned ones you see around here often won't run off for good, but they do seem to still be a bit more skittish about it.
*Rosemary raised an eyebrow and frowned as Daphne hugged her... she wasn't even using her kind, caring, and nice voice when she had said it. She wasn't trying to really be supportive, mostly giving her options...on how to increase her chance of dieing without suicide and being a nuisance to the world if she lost her desire to live and to at least know if she did it right she could still get into heaven rather than hell. It was blank again when Daphne pulled away.*
Vell... *She tries to think of how to explain it...* It was a suggestion for you if you were so desperate to die... In the military you fight along side many others, take orders from your superiors, and protect those in need while fighting off the 'villians'... I've never looked into it, nor have I ever had any desire to join it because I don't take being ordered well and following them if I want to do it my way than I am ordered to do in a given situation. I know it's supposed to be for the greater good, but I'm too stubborn and probably wouldn't listen. That's not good in a team effort where all must work together to survive... *She'd rather give the orders than take them (rather work alone than in a group under most circumstances, but in the military you start at the bottom and she pictures that she'd be not following orders so much that she'd never go up in rank...*
*She was slightly glad that Daphne was feeling better, although part of her really didn't care. She smiled slightly and laughed mirthlessly, yet it sounded amused, and shrugged.* That's how I am. *In truth she wasn't all too pleased about the possible future friend thoughts running through the girl's mind. She didn't want to get attached to her. She has been trying to avoid gaining any new friends...they'd just be another person added to her list of victims if she ever was caught and made into a mage. But she isn't one to be rude even if she doesn't like the person like the old pervert Kref, so if the girl pushes she'll be as polite as possible... at least this one doesn't seem to have any ill intentions. *
(A little note if this confuses you. Rosemary doesn't hate her, she neither likes nor dislikes her. She just doesn't want to get attached to anyone new at the moment and is annoyed that this girl might become attached to her, but she doesn't want to try to crush these feelings of Daphne's either if it gives her some happiness.)

Daph half-smiled, "I know how that is. I used to be like that. Timid, I mean." She sighed, "I just don't like the reason why she's so aloof. It's almost...I don't know... too safe." Daph chuckled a little, "That didn't come out right. But the thing is even when I said all that stuff about me wanting to die...well... She still didn't befriend me. Which is strange because if she's so worried about harming a new friend, in this case me, death is what I want. Not exactly now, though... I'de kind of like to think about the whole military thing. It's putting my life on the line and for good reason too..." She thought and tucked a piece of her blonde-ish hair behind her ear, "Yet... I still wish somehow I can get her to be my friend... She's--for lack of a better word-- different, and that's refreshing for me because where I came from everyone seemed the same." Again Daph thought about what she said, "Oh! I didn't mean you were not unique. Let me tell you, everyone at this house is unique and different...I just...Oh I don't even know anymore." She started to twist around a lock of hair with her fingures in thought.

Daph bit her lip and winced in pain. She remembered she had fangs. ((Hehe I'm rhyming today! could be that I was just writing poetry...oh yeah...))"I see..." Daph said, after thinking abit, "I don't feel pity for her, instead I just want to be her friend. I feel that I want to connect with her some how. I've never met another vampire in my life, well not life but you should know what I mean. I think in the way she's refreshing to me... I'm almost refreshing to her. Or something...Maybe I'm just imagening things." Daph winked, "I still have hidden power, though, she doesn't have to worry about me." Daph sighed, realizing this plan of self-reliance wasn't so smart, and that she would have to gain Rosemary's respect and friendship over time, not just in one day or even a week, "You know, I'm not even sure what powers I do have. So if I can't even work my abilities then I wont be much use. Maybe I should just be content with the friends I all ready have." She admitted

*A couple days after she left, she reappeared in the main entrance room of the Soul Fortress, in a manner similar to dust finding form once again in the wind but instead of breaking apart after a few moments she stayed together. She was slowly lowering to the ground and then collapsed all together from exhaustion, but she had a slightly happy sense in her expression, which is something she has lacked as of late. She has yet to master travel beyond what she used to be able to normally do, which was about as much as Black can, so she puts a lot more energy into it than she should or maybe she had not rested for days. When she woke a few hours later, she did not really know what to say, so she did not say much before she excused herself. She vanished like dust on the wind and reappeared at THoR.*
*Black was in the game room enjoying a game of air hockey with an invisible opponent. She thought this way of playing was rather fun since she couldn't see what her opponent was going to do. Of course she often wondered whom she was playing against and if it was always the same person. She was in adult form as she usually was when she was at home, but as soon as she heard Rosemary enter the other room, she popped into kid form, excused herself politely to thin air and apologized for having to cut their game short, and pranced by GL who was about to suffer the same fate of his tank thing that just got hit in Space Invaders. When she got to Rosemary she stopped suddenly, looking at the ground. Her arms shot up as her gaze moved to look at the strange angel's face.*
*Rosemary picked her up of course and was greeted by many dog kisses from the little tail wager. The girl didn't stop until Rosemary finally had to pull her away. She slowly pulled the girl toward her again and waited a few moments to see what she was going to do. Instead of trying to slobber up the vampire's face, she batted at her wings, watching them lose their shape and reform wherever her hand managed to reach. Rosemary shook her head with the barest of movements. The girl always greeted her as if she hasn't seen her in weeks and would cling to her as if she wasn't going to see her for a long time before she left to go anywhere it seemed.*
She put a finger on Black's cheek and slowly pushed her head to the side as she brought her own mouth down to the girl's pulse in her neck. It probably was an odd sight, seeing an angel in a vampire feeding position. Black stopped what she was doing at once and closed her eyes expecting to feel Rosemary's teeth on her skin, but instead she felt a flick of a tongue and broke off into a giggle fit as Rosemary pulled away and fell onto the couch, her wings disappearing as she fell into a sitting position. Their foreheads touched and Rosemary said to her,* I haf zomezing in my head zat I vant you to see.
*Black saw a wondrous sight, but as she saw it, it was also escaping from her as fast as a fading dream. She remembers how nice it was, but doesn't remember what it was about. The images were gone and she couldn't remember much of what she had.* What was that?
A place I vould rather not spend much time at. You'll remember how to get zere vhen ze need arrizes.. *...Or zo I am told... she thought.*
