Summary: “It’s really weird seeing yourself as a vampire,” Rian Martin said, sitting cross-legged on the lawn.

“It’s really weird seeing yourself as a vampire,” Rian Martin said, sitting cross-legged on the lawn. The afternoon was cool, despite the beautiful bright sunny day, but it was still far too pretty to be hiding indoors. Besides, the colonel was on a tangent about something to do with botanical alchemy and was ranting mostly at one of the other Eds, so Rian thought it wise to clear out before he got drawn into the debate.

“Speak for yourself,” his erstwhile twin said. This other Rian was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses, and sitting mostly in the shade of the house. He didn’t seem too badly affected by the sunlight, but it was clear it was just a touch too bright for him outside. “I wasn’t always a vampire, you know. I used to be just like you."

"It’s still weird,” Rian argued, his legs sprawled out in front of him. “Where I come from, vampires don’t exist."

"Really?” the other Rian didn’t lift his head from where it was pillowed on his arms. “You sure?"

"Well, that I know of.” It was a concession he was willing to make, he’d seen plenty enough weird things to know he didn’t know the half of it. “I thought you needed to sleep during the day."

"Nah, Roy’s the one who sacks out like sleep is going out of style.” Rian scratched his jaw. “Besides, I was hoping….” he trailed off, and sighed.

“You were hoping to see your other boyfriend before he goes out of season,” Rian supplied helpfully.

“He’s not my boyfriend!” The vampire snapped back with irritation. Rian grinned despite himself, and received a sour look in return.

“Coulda fooled me,” he said.

“You can’t even see him,” Rian said. “I don’t know what you’re so smug for.”
