He was just waiting. Waiting for instructions on what to do. He had his victims, and he was ready to do what he was supposed to. Or... mostly. There was only one slight little hitch to that plan. Violet, no problem, he could sacrifice her or whatever was required any second he was asked to. He didn't have anything against her, but he didn't have any particular reason to want to save her, either.

However... the snag was with Max. The teenaged boy was intoxicating. Literally, actually. And Armand found himself unable to stop from occasionally biting the alien, draining a little bit more of his blood each time. The boy was very pale. He was coming close to breaking the rules, to killing. And, somehow, at the same time, he knew he would fight Dahak if necessary to protect the alien boy. An odd sort of dual way of feeling, but Armand didn't worry about that much.

The vampire sat comfortably on the alter he'd set up. He'd been there for hours, unmoving. Max lay draped in his lap, and Armand played softly with his hair. Together, they sat, and waited. Max was conscious, but barely. He would likely be in a delerium induced by lack of blood, and the bond that had so ensnared the vampire. Armand showed no indication of letting him go anytime soon, if ever.

There was the girl there, too, of course. Violet. Such an intruiging, logical little creature. He had spent quite awhile busy with her mind, and knew nearly everything there was to know about her. Suddenly, he spoke. "Come here, little girl." His fingers continued to play gently with the hair of the boy draped in his lap. "Come here, I want to give you a candy."

He reached into his pocket, and knowing full well that she was allergic to peppermint, he pulled one of the candy's out. He'd gotten this just for this purpose. And entering the mind of the child, he compelled her towards him, compelled her to take the candy.

He was slightly taken aback by how friendly these two interlopers seemed to be. Idly, he reached out with his mind, first towards the girl. He blinked, and confusion crossed his face. She definately had some interesting things going on in her head. She looked like a girl, but had some thoughts that were more primitive. Like an animal, almost. He looked at her thoughtfully, and then turned his attention to the male.

Here, however, his eyes widened, and he looked innocent, childlike, despite the alien blood staining his lips. He didn't let go of Max, but he did stop petting him, and his grip loosened a little. "You..." He shook his head, trying to clear it, but the euphoric affect of the alien's blood hadn't worn off. "So... much... power..."

It didn't take him long to make up his mind. He nodded firmly, having made an important decision, and looked right at the doctor. "Well, I have no wish to find out of the Planet really could teleport me into the sun, you both have a point there. I'm willing to make a bargain." Hoisting Max up by his shoulders, he smiled at the boy and kissed him full on the lips, letting him taste his own blood. "You..." He lowered the alien and pointed at the Doctor, "Let me taste you, and I let my Max here go." He laughed softly. "For now, anyway. Otherwise, I'll take my chances, and bite him again."

Teeth were again revealed, and he started to bend down, meaning to take more blood. Chances were, Max didn't have a whole lot left to give, or he shouldn't if he was human. He figured he couldn't lose, at this point. Either he'd get to test out the alien's endurance, or he'd get to bite someone that was so incredibly powerful, the concept made his mind swim. Even the worry about what would happen should to the girl and the boy that he'd kidnapped die didn't really register. He felt actually pretty much drunk at this point.
