[ i'm HOWLING this could be hysterical god yes please. ]

[chaotictherapist]

[Is he gonna kick Alucard's ass? No one knows, maybe not even PH.

how would you like to have it set? Weird Bruce Willis style dream sequence or busting him out of the basement?]

[goneforawalk]

[ well he does love getting stabbed with big knives!!!!

hmmm a dream sequence would be pretty funny, tbh! ]

And he knows right where to put it. IfYannoWutIMean

[The dead of night. Not a particularly unusual night. Overcast, a little chilly for some and a bit of light fog setting in. A perfectly normal and not in any way ominous kind of night. Especially not for Alucard.

Perhaps he's not aware of the grand lack of anything in the fields beyond the Hellsing manor.

How there are no foxes making awful noises. No owls hunting. A grand amount of bugger all actually.

Well, except for an unusually tall thing stood at the top of one of the grassy knolls and what looks like a weapon.

So all in all a totally normal night. Right? Right.


Of course, the entity stood at the top of the knoll knows where he is too. He's always been there. Just watching and waiting. Or does he? Perhaps the way he's shifting and occasionally spasming has nothing to do with just how disgruntled he is.]

( Like one might eat or breathe, the decision to kill Richard was a subconscious one. Yes, he might have posed a direct threat to Kiritsugu's life, but more overtly, he posed a threat to many lives. If given an inch of power-- if given command of Hellsing, there would be no way to discern how that power could be misused or outright abused, and therefore could no longer be allowed to exist within the purview of Kiritsugu's ideals.

Perhaps it would trouble him, later, how effortlessly he could pull the trigger, no matter how justifiable the blood spilt, but he wouldn't concern himself with that right now. Not with his uncle's still warm, limp body being hauled over his shoulder, as he furthers himself within the manor's dungeon, stopping only once he makes it to the chained up corpse in the basement. )

[Did someone ask for a rescue party because that's exactly what Rip is. She had been a way on a mission for a month, one that left her on a wild goose chase for some reason. Though, when she returned to Hellsing Manor, that mysterious reason became very clear.

She couldn't find Alucard anywhere.

Rip appeared in the basement without bothering to let Arthur or Walter know she was back from her mission. She had felt as if something were wrong the moment she set foot onto the Manor grounds and felt the overwhelming urge to investigate. She followed her senses deeper into the basement, the sense of wrongness growing and growing until she reached a door with occult symbols painted on it.

They were meant to keep something in. Rip had a guess of what that was and it gave rise to her anger that they would do something like this to him. Now she just had to force her way through the door....]

[Ryan may not like it, but when his father orders him to tag along for some sort of private monster exhibition, he goes along with it. His father wants to impress upon him all the good he could do if he put that brilliant mind of his to use to fight the darkness. All Ryan wants to do is see whatever poor bastard has been declared a vampire. How is he supposed to believe that someone out there has found an actual demon with all the accusations that have been leveled against him? It's rubbish. No amount of painful attempts at "purification" have managed to change the color of Ryan's eyes, and he hopes that his father's attempts to pawn him off as a research assistant to Professor Van Helsing means that he's finally given up on it. If nothing else, staying with another man of science is better than staying with his father.

So he endures the pleasantries. The professor is actually quite brilliant, and he almost enjoys the brief conversation he has with him before his father cuts in. It's not until the professor escorts him and his father down to actually look at the beast that Ryan realizes Alucard isn't human at all. Even a skeptic like him can tell, and it would be a lie to say he's not frightened when he sees those blood red eyes glaring back at him, far more menacing than his own could ever be. For a moment, he considers earnestly devoting himself to assisting in refining the method being used to control the monster before him. But then his father just has to go and make a comment.

"Those eyes are just like yours, boy. You best keep fighting off the devil within you if you don't want to end up like that."

No. He's not going to imprison this creature. He's going to let it loose tonight. It was a long ride into the city, so his father will be staying the night. Cold, murderous fury burns inside him, but Ryan keeps it under wraps until nightfall. It's long past midnight when he returns to where the vampire is being kept, lips pressed into a thin line.]

You must be terribly unlucky to end up here.

[ being shown off to another group of hunters is, sickeningly enough, actually a respite. this isn't to say that abraham releases him in any way, shape, or form--but having guests means he can't actively torture his captive vampire, and it lets alucard just... rest.

he can hear them talk upstairs, hear them trail down to look at him like a creature in a zoo, and it's humiliating. abraham even puts him for his paces, orders him to move, to walk, to test the seals he's so goddamn proud of, like alucard is a dog on a leash.

which he is.

he's hateful though, and bitter, and doesn't so much as speak a word the entire time.

abraham pins him down harder for the night when they leave, naturally, so when ryan--alucard thinks that's his name, he heard it at least once--returns to observe him, he's pinned to the wall with stakes, shackled in silver that burns his wrists, and surrounded with--there's a cross above him, garlic, salt, and wild roses around him. abraham is very thorough.

when he looks up at his uninvited visitor he looks wan, and tired, but he grins nonetheless--and it's not kind. ]

That's one way to put it. Back to gawk? It seems your father lumps us together. How does that make you feel?

[amorality]

[Once again, he has to reconsider his course of action. It's entirely possible that Alucard might decide to just rip his throat out if he releases him, and Ryan doesn't want to die here. His heart rate picks up and his pupils dilate, but his expression remains calm as he creeps closer.]

How do you think? You have enhanced senses, don't you? I'm sure you heard my heartbeat, then.

[Because it was beating hard, even harder than it is now. His hatred is frighteningly powerful, even more powerful than his fear.]

I'd wager that you were feeling similarly. I'm surprised a man as intelligent as the professor would go so far. It doesn't seem wise to earn the hatred of a man that can't die.

[goneforawalk]

[ yes, alucard might. but he also might not. he lets out a laugh, low and rough, and it sound wounded, like he hasn't laughed in a very long time. ]

Oh, I know. I'd like to hear it, though, from your own mouth.

[ he can't really move, not like this, but he does manage to cant his head, just a little. it makes him look a bit like a curious dog. ]

He could have killed me. Easily. But he's a fool, and keeps my alive for his own use. Makes it ever more difficult to finally end me, but I'm sure he intends my suffering to be indefinite. He claims to care for humanity, but--

[ he pauses, clearly angry, but there's a flash of something human in his expression, briefly, careful and brittle. ]

--he damns an innocent woman to eternal half-life, cursed and damned, just by keeping me alive. So don't you believe his prattle about the good of humanity.

[amorality]

[It's that tiny spark of humanity that has him stepping within arm's reach, face to face with Helsing's prized monster. Ryan doesn't believe for a second that Alucard is an innocent victim here, but even if that expression is faked, it shows intelligence. Reason. He's a beast, but he's not a rabid beast, foaming at the mouth as he chokes himself with his own collar while trying to bite anyone that gets close.]

Words just cheapen it, but if you really want to hear it, then so be it. I detest him. He's a pathetic shell of a man with an ego so fragile that he needs to invent a demon to step on to raise himself from his own despair. I hate him, and I hate men like him who try to pretend they're better than others because they're fighting for some grand cause. We're all just animals in the end.

[Lifting his chin, Ryan slips a hand into his pocket, fingering his pocket knife.]

What would you do if you managed to break free from those seals?
