Liz's master
Eric was moving to the bar. He had a duffle bag slung over his shoulder, filled with his clothes. There was a very decent basement at the bar.

A man was walking a few paces ahead of him, and something was bugging him about him. Until he narrowed it down. Two heartbeats.

Long strides easily had him catch up with the two-hearted creature. "You're one of these aliens," he stated.

	The Master paused, turned, and replied, "I not human and I'm not from Earth, yes." He looked over the man who was speaking to him. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	He smelled alien, to say the least, but not bad. Simply different from any smell Eric had ever smelled, and he'd met a lot of supernatural creatures. "Which one are you, Doctor or Master?" That the latter would choose such a name had not stopped mildly amusing him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Eric." He did not offer a hand; it was a human thing to do. "Why the Master?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 12:46 pm UTC (link)
	That was more than fine with the Master, offering a hand was a learned habit for him. "In my younger days I believed I was meant for great things. Now I've done many things, the greatness of which is entirely subject to one's point of view, but the name is part of me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Good answer," Eric voiced, pleasantly surprised. It did not happen often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thank you. What about me makes it obvious to you I'm not human?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Two heartbeats," Eric answered honestly, hoisting the bag up a little on his shoulder when it began to slip. "A sure giveaway." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It is. You have very good hearing. Were you going somewhere? I'll walk with you, if you like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 01:24 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't mind," which was different from liking it, but Eric had to admit that he was curious about these aliens. So he did start walking, expecting the Master to follow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 01:25 pm UTC (link)
	"All right. So what you then?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 01:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Vampire." He would have thought it were obvious. Then again, maybe these aliens had never meant vampires before coming to this place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	He definitely picked up on the 'not human' but that covered a lot that could be anything. "I've met, I believe, four different varieties of beings calling themselves vampires here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Can you tell us apart?" Curious as to these aliens' perception. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	"If I bother." Being that receptive generally meant leaving yourself open to something getting in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	"And have you ever bothered noticing my sort of vampire before?" He wanted to know if others he knew might have preceded him here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 08:46 pm UTC (link)
	"No," he said slowly after a moment. "I don't think so. Or you're old enough it's hard to tell. Or both." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	If age was a problem, then the Master would not have been able to pin Godric down, that was for certain. Eric shifted the bag on his shoulder as he grabbed the keys out of his pocket, stopping a few paces further to open the door to the bar. "Please, come in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	He peered at the bar sign. "Thank you. You've set up business?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 09:07 pm UTC (link)
	De Final, the sign read. A private joke, as it were. "It's not open yet. Soon." He walked in, leaving the door open for the Master to follow. "If you want anything, help yourself." Most of the stock had come in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	themasterreborn 2009-09-01 09:15 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm fine, thank you. Why invest time in a business? And for that matter, a bar?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_northman 2009-09-01 09:19 pm UTC (link)
	"I need to feed," Eric answered easily. "I need volunteers to feed me. From past experience, this is the fastest way to get some." He was blunt. He did not see why he should not be. He dropped his bag behind the bar, then strode back to a table to take a seat in a very comfortable armchair. A hand gesture invited the Master to do the same. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Practical," he noted, unruffled.

If had to be perfectly honest with himself, and he did try to be, his alliances with the various versions of Jack around had mostly begun wanting to have the immortal man who tended to shoot things he was pissed of at with him, rather than against him. That he'd come to adore Jack was a happy coincidence. Or self-preservation and self-delusion conflated beyond belief.

	"There's no area where your feelings on the matter trump the logical conclusion?" he challenged, lip twitching. He didn't expect an honest answer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
