[He's on the phone with Pam, while he's flying to see the queen of Louisiana.]

--And I want you to keep an eye on a couple of vampires for me. You know the ones. They've gotten overexcited on multiple occasions and I won't have them damaging anymore of the human patrons. The cleanup alone isn't worth it. If they give you any trouble, you have my permission to correct that mistake as you see fit.

[There's static on the other end.]

Pam? [More static.]

[He notices the environment isn't New Orleans and he lands immediately. Nope definitely not New Orleans.]

Well. This is interesting.

I won't feed from her unless she asks and since she's already made it abundantly clear she doesn't want it, it's not an issue.

And I'm surprised Bill hasn't found his way here yet. Isn't he glued to your side?

You won't feed from her at all, Eric. [ someday, sookie will cotton on to the fact that she is not actually able to cash in on these demands too well. today is not that day. ]

...Apparently not, since it's been six months.

[Okay, he can see she's gonna be stubborn about this.]

Fine, since she's your friend I'll consider her off limits. Will that satisfy you?

[Okay now he sounds a little smug.]

You know, if you were mine, I wouldn't leave you here by yourself.

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Yes, that'll do me fine for now, thank you.

[ ...sookie stop sassing the undead viking when your protector is out for cigarettes. ]

Well I'm never gonna be yours, so I guess it doesn't matter what you'd do.

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

I'm just giving you an idea of what it would be like.

audio;

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

You mean aggravating and nothin' I ever want any part of?

audio;

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

Someday you'll have a change of heart.

[He's very confidant about that.]

audio;

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Not even if you were the last person left on earth with me.

[ equally confident here. ]

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

Your comments hurt me, Sookie. Truly. If I had feelings, my heart would be broken.

audio;

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Well then I guess it's good you're incapable of feelin' much of anything, isn't it?

audio;

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

When you're as old as I am, emotions become meaningless.

[Nope there wasn't a hint of him possibly maybe thinking about Godric righ then.]

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

You feel for Godric.

[ note that tense there, eric. feel, not felt. hmmmmmmm. ]

audio | private

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

Godric was my maker.

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Well, he still is unless you picked a new one since decidin' to get shot.

[ aaaaaaaaand from moving towards empathetic back to tart. she might actually feel bad about this, later. ]

audio | private

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

[Okay, she kinda gets a glare for that.]

He's dead, Sookie.

audio | private

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Eric, that's not funny.

[ at this rate, she might actually apologize to him.]

audio | private

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

No, it's not.

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

But he's--

I just saw him, he was fine after that boy from the Fellowship--

[ she trails off there. ]

Oh, hell. You weren't jokin', were you?

audio | private

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

I would not joke about this. You were there with him at the end, you should know.

audio | private

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

Eric, I don't know what you're talkin' about.

[ ...this is such a bad call, she knows it is. ]

Where'd you end up in the City?

audio | private

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

[Pause while he gathers in his surroundings. I'm gonna say it's night since he'd be burnt to a crisp otherwise.]

There's a fountain nearby.

audio | private

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

[ that would be awkward indeed. ]

I'll be right there.

[Don't know if we're action threading this, or what, but Eric's waiting for her.]

you've got bones in your closet you've got ghosts in your town

[lajolieblonde.livejournal.com]

[ sookie curses herself the entire way to the square. she ought to just let eric be, stay tucked away safe in her apartment and not let him near her. but if godric really is dead...

only god's supposed to know what's coming next, but if eric knows... there's a part of her that wants to know, too. ]

Eric?

[ she shivers a little, pulling her coat tighter around her. ]

Eric, I swear if you're just doin' this to get me to come see you...

[vikingvampire.livejournal.com]

[Eric steps up to her with his hands in his pockets.]

I wouldn't use Godric's death as some cheap ploy to lure you to me.
