There was no retreat from the vampire as Jas stepped closer all Drake was did but blink a few times at the notion that he was distant. Maybe he was but mostly he found himself really seeing the notion of the never ending presented before him. There was something about the idea that... Now he would have to figure out and deal with Kane or with helping Ryan for as long as he doesn't get murdered that he never really had to grapple with before. Things had a natural end and he felt always on the edge of that cliff in danger of going over. Yet... Against the odds here he was and the newness of it still baffled him as he looked over the now and Jas who came to kiss him.<br/><br/>There was acceptance in that kiss including the acceptance of man who seemed so desperate to express his love for Drake. The vampire felt like there was only so much resistance he could offer and he wanted to just for the moment enjoy the possibility of the infinite even if his mind would slip from him in time. He kiss grew a touch desperate as Drake wrapped his arms around the man who had saved him, sometimes in ways that Drake wasn't ready to admit but he wasn't out of the woods yet. Sure Dimitri was gone but he had left behind the scarred fragments of Drake and the fragments of people in his life.
