Flame 002 ø Radu Barvon ø [In Person]

[Radu is in the corner of the safe house. He has not spoken to anyone since he arrived. He's avoided questions and glared at anyone who dared to come too close, bristling like a scared cat in their presence. The first few days he was here the weather was cold, but not unbearable for a Methuselah. But that had changed. Today even Radu is feeling the full effects of the cold. He huddles for warmth in his corner and ignites a blue flame in his palm, bringing it close to himself as if it was a delicate flower he was protecting from a wind.]

[He hardly knows what any of that sentence meant. But from what he can pick out, it's obviously an insult. He gives a smile.]

I'm hardly a beast. I am human, as you are. If you don't want people to stare, why do you create such eye-catching flames?

[Soubi senses Radu's surprise, but doesn't know why. He keeps watching the flames move.]

You could be sitting at the larger fire, instead.

[...Or you could do that. Fair enough.]

The fire over there is still larger.
