Locked to Integral & Matthias (after the Scoobies are Gone)
The smell of smoke lingered, eyelids dropped and a soft smile curled the corners of his mouth. Matthias knew he was being watched and was amused that the presence thought he, a vampire, would not notice. Turning from the direct line of Integral's sight, he moved closer to the edge of the woods, waiting for the other to make a move.
Lifting one pale hand, a massive bat alighted upon Matthias' slender fingers. He held it for a moment, allowing the weight to settle and cling as he stroked the creature's chest with the other hand.
