Damn. A human.

Judging by what Adam read in his thoughts, he seems harmless. Probably has a mild opinion on vampires. Still, he can’t help but feel wary.

“Do you always hug people you just met?”

Good to see Jude again, though Adam remains suspicious of him like he would with anyone else. & the hug, while has good intentions, isn’t helping much.

“First the hair & now this? Am I expecting flowers next?”

Adam is one of those vampires that doesn’t desire attention. Back then, he was practically invisible, keeping to himself. Nowadays, this is one of those rare moments where he finally breaks out of that shell & perform in public. He can’t figure out why. Something clicked.

Since Jude appears to be well aware what Adam is, he might as well come clean about it.

“I dunno if you noticed, but the world’s not exactly a safe place for vampires. I’m afraid of being exposed. So, whenever I get a compliment, I can’t help but feel suspicious.”
