[Closed to Jean-Claude] Backdated to late night after Harris's party

[loveconquersdinosaurs]

Thomas got home. He was alive. He was very grateful to be alive, a bit annoyed that his suit was ruined, and a bit terrified that it had taken so little time for the hunters to come to Islington after they were kicked out of the Night Council. It made him wonder if they'd been itching to do that the whole time.

He had to get the word out. He had to let the others know that they were being hunted. And, honestly, after what just happened...he mostly just wanted to talk to someone. The question was, whose number did he have? Well, there was always Guilty Pleasures. He knew who he could get there. And so he picked up the phone and dialed.

"Hello? I need to speak to Jean-Claude."

Thomas nods to himself, saying, "I'd already planned on staying here until tomorrow night, anyway." And those were his plans even before the incident. "And I certainly feel safer here than out there...or anywhere else, for that matter. They have security in this building, after all, and in my own home I'm more likely to notice if I hear or smell anything out of place."

And while there were plenty of supernatural threats that could get past regular human security, a shapeshifter only had a choice of human or animal forms to get in, and either would draw attention.

Jean-Claude hesitates for a moment, but it's as good reasoning as any for the other vampire to simply stay put. If he really has so much security as he says, then he should be safe. He is being paranoid. No one will go through such great hoops to try and get past all of that.

"Thank you for letting me know, mon ami," he replies at last. "I will see what I can do to let my dancers know to be on their guard." Which of course means he will send the word out through the ranks of those who stand by him as a potential leader as well. "See to your wound and let me know if anything else should occur out of the ordinary, oui?"

"Thank you. I will."

He, of course, was more than glad to share this information. He didn't much appreciate being hunted in the street. He also was certainly going to keep an eye out for anything else that Jean-Claude might need to know, should he run into any trouble in the nights to come. For now, however, he'd focus on tending to his leg.

"I'll call you if anything else comes up. Goodbye for now."

And as long as Jean-Claude didn't say anything that might indicate he had more to say, Thomas would hang up. After all, he wanted to have both hands free to examine his wounded leg some more.
