Gideon is...[Alucard begins, words failing him as they often do.] The first friend I had here. One of the two most important. She understands without judging.
[The last part hurts the most to say, because it is Gideon's greatest strength in their friendship. She knows about the patricide, about the impalements and what lead up to those, all of it.
In response to Lenore's question, the dhampir begins to walk. It is a slow pace, plodding and weighed down by emotion, but the walk is brief. A turn around a corner and the sad little hut that rests in Alucard's domain comes into view, a single light on.
He wasn't joking about how little his domain resembled home. Inside the hut is a giant kitchen and fireplace, but little else. Two tiny back rooms - a bedroom and a bathroom. That's it.
But it is dry in here, and Alucard lights a fire immediately.]
