In his heart of hearts Drake knew that he had to adapt and learn his powers even if he changed his mind and trie to get himself back to human right now he couldn't risk hurting other people and other supernaturals were going to treat him like a vampire aka a threat. Humans got a pass as being seen as feeble and weak he could use the element of surprise but vampires were expected to know what they were doing not only that they were territorial with other vampires. This meant he needed to train not to get his ass kicked. Swallowing hard he could feel a slight bit of anxiety kick in as Jasaiah asked to be compelled. On the one hand Jas was consenting so even the amount of fake resisting could be overcome on the other hand the other had been around the block for a long time and his attempts might be weak and feeble.<br/><br/>Yet Drake was not known for giving up easily and he mustered up all the things he remembered and launched himself headlong into the task. The 'thread' of Jas's will was easy enough to sense he wasn't hiding it and Drake had always been more observant than most so sensing it was not the challenge it felt like he had to wrap his own will around the thread and pull hard to get a reaction, the trick was hanging on and that took focus and strength. It was after all a mental game much like a power lifter that had to overcome the hard and heavy lift mentally they had to push passed the point of comfort and force that final bit to get that control. But he pushed and forced and managed, he wasn't skilled enough not to have Jasaiah sense it though, not yet, but it was only a matter of time. His eyes stayed locked on Jas's taking on a bit of a glow as they worked their way into taking Jas's will and forcing the other to lift up his hand. It was possible to compel someone without eye contact but it was far harder as Drake extended his fangs wanting to sink into the pulse he could smell.
