[Ianto is currently out cold, but slowly showing signs of coming round.  He's not exactly in his best state; his nose is shattered, and he has a stab wound in his chest.

For once?  This has absolutely nothing to do with the Master.]

But why do they enjoy it?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs.] Some people just like the pain.

[madamemoiselle]

Well, if you can find people that would let me, then I'd do that.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

You couldn't find them yourself?

[madamemoiselle]

By the time I'm hungry, I don't really care whether my food is going to enjoy it or not, honestly.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

And you wonder why vampires have bad things associated with them.

[madamemoiselle]

{This argument is one Diva has been presented with countless times, and, as always, her face turns cold and haughty with a tone to match} No, I wonder why humans think that they're so superior to everything else.

If humans can feed on the flesh of cows and birds, why doesn't it make sense that something is there to feed on the flesh of humans? If all that sets me apart from a human is my diet, then why am I so hated just for that?

[Sorry- Ianto has major problems with eating people. D:]

We know we aren't superior; we just have the means to protect ourselves, and we will use them. You're hated because we have understanding of what it is you're doing to us, and it's not something we'll simply sit back and accept.

[madamemoiselle]

Yet even when I've done nothing wrong, people still like to take their fears out on me. Before I realized that it's something that people are better of knowing, I was poisoned, shot, dismembered, beaten, and murdered in any way you can imagine. Just for what I am.

Never mind that I'd never taken a drop of blood from any of these people or those they knew, just by being born, I'm already a monster. Humans think that I deserve to die. Humans are pretty arrogant to think that they're the only creatures that want to live.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

You've taken blood from me.

After that I think it's pretty arrogant for you to think that I'll accept you aren't really a monster; just because of the prejudice you've suffered at the hands of humans.

[madamemoiselle]

I never meant you. Ne, I expect you to hate me. Even if I didn't kill you, or, really, even harm you, it's still kind of scary, it seems like.

I don't hate humans, but ah~ They can be very strange sometimes.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I don't hate you, I distrust you. There is a difference.

To you, maybe. Different things tend to seem strange to different species.

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, that's right, the Brigadier kind of explained that. Is it hard for you to hate a person, then?

Ne, then do I seem strange to you?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

That depends... it can be.

Yes.

[madamemoiselle]

{Smiles} Then that's good.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

What is?
