Elliot didn't know what to do with that, he sighed carefully covering up the mostly dry painting, "What are your plans, if not to make it work? Just live as strangers for how long? Do you know a way to undo the bond?" It left him feeling very alone. Alone in a bond with someone who only wanted to escape it. He had signed up for a lot, but he hadn't expected to be so completely unwanted. It hurt.<br/><br/>"It would be exactly what I signed up for and I would do so happily because it's what I'm here for," Elliot replied dryly as he slide the sketchbook into the safety of his bag and got to his feet. He had no words for vile and unfair. He knew that was simply how vampires lived and if Callan hated that about himself, Elliot wasn't his partner and had no obligation to help him, not that he was equipped to do so in the first place. He pushed his hands through his hair and took in a deep breath, before turning and heading down the path that would take him back to the cabin.
