Aries was also tense, looking at the other while trying to seem angry, but really he was probably more afraid than anything. He hated when things changed, and he'd suffered a lot of change lately... And when people changed it made him more nervous than anything. "What else should I think? You've been avoiding me, you've barely said anything since you came back the other night!" He replied, perhaps giving away that despite his poor demeanor, he did get lonely when he wasn't even glanced at by another person for so long, even a few days made him wonder what he'd done wrong, how he'd messed up this time.<br/><br/>"Less of you?" He muttered, scowling. He didn't understand what the other meant by that. He finally glanced away, clearly trying to understand, but he really couldn't. "Isn't it just how everyone is?" He finally asked, his tone sharp and agitated. "No one likes taking care of someone who can't give anything back to them. And you haven't told me what you want me to do at all! There's hardly any chores to do, I can't make money, I can't even run errands for you! Then you just get a bunch of stuff... You're going to get annoyed with it eventually, but I didn't ask to be taken care of by anyone. I just wanted a place to come back to, I didn't ever ask for someone to be nice to me when I can't pay it back!"<br/><br/>He stopped then, hugging the shirt he'd been about to lay on the couch to his chest as he looked down, biting hard on his lip until he tasted the soft metallic flavor of blood. He couldn't even offer that to the other... Even though he could smell the blood of another vampire on the male the other night... But he wouldn't take from him, nothing at all... And he knew that once he was no longer useful then he lost his place to come back to, and it was always without warning, or at least without one that he caught on to. He was really tired of it, and he was trying to at least get a bit of notice for the next time, because there would always be a next time.
