( thoughtfully, )

All of them, in a range. If it's crowded I'd have to focus, but I can count, shockingly enough.

You don't have a range, do you?

[perfectionner]

Beyond the barriers that seemingly keep us here, but I imagine the same holds true for you?

[ and he has tried, only to earn a bleeding from the ears for his effort. ]

None of the other minds intrigue me so well, though.

[multiverse]

Of course. But my range isn't the size of this house. I have to piggy back off other telepaths if I want to reach past floors.

The way to a girl's heart is through her brain, Monsieur Lestat. I like flattery.

[perfectionner]

You can channel someone else’s power to use as your own? Does it require sharing the same space as them?

Well, I don’t believe in empty flattery. Women so often see through it, regardless. The truth is a much better weapon when wielded.

[multiverse]

They just have to be in my range. You’re doing all the heavy lifting in this telepathic connection — I’m just on the ride.

Are you saying you can’t compliment me and be truthful?

[perfectionner]

Fortunate, then, that you picked up when I called.

I’m saying when I compliment you, you’ll know it’s the truth. For instance, I very much enjoy having your pretty voice in my head.

[multiverse]

I don’t make a habit of brushing off interesting men.

It’s the French accent, isn’t it?

[perfectionner]

I’d say it’s a nice reminder of home, but my feelings toward France are more complicated as of late.

Though you’re more than welcome to speak in any tongue you like.

Complicated in a butter and carbs diet way?

Hm. ( considering that for a bit, thoughts turned over like the spin cycle on a washing machine. ) Do you know other languages?

[perfectionner]

Complicated in that it's been many years since I found myself with cause to return.

Passable in Italian. [ he has his mother to thank for that, but now seems like the wrong time to mention gabrielle. ]

[multiverse]

I think I might not return, either.

Ah, bellissimo. I had in my mind that all you ancients and immortals just sat around on Duolingo all day.

( was his vampirism a secrets. oopsie. )

[perfectionner]

It seems you know a little more about me than you may have initially let on, bella.
