42 Howls: Desperately Seeking Thomas

Has anyone seen or heard from Thomas?

He hasn't answered any of my calls or contacted me and I'm starting to get a little freaked out.

Where are you? What's going on? You've got me all panicked here. I even checked to see if your picture was with those who've gone home.

Come on. I even signed up to do that damned show because you said it would be fun to do together.

Call me, text me, stop by, something!

I doubt he'd believe it. I'm probably the only one who can shake it off.

I'm partially immune to vampire type magic. I can feel the demon when it rises, know it when it touches me in any way. I know exactly what's Thomas and what's the demon. And sure, when I'm with him, when it's focused on me, it's damn near irresistible and it feels damn good. But when I go home again... all I crave is Thomas without the demon. Because he's the one I love.

If the demon called to me - on the phone or the network? - I wouldn't feel the need to go to it. Not at all. That's not the way it works for normal people. They'd have to go. They'd become addicted to the pleasure. But I don't.

I... wow. Okay. And he doesn't believe that?

I don't think I've ever said it that clearly to him.

But he'd just think it proved I was addicted and saying anything to keep us together.

He has some serious issues about it - not that I blame him, but I'd thought we'd worked through all of this crap. Multiple times.

Well... you don't know until you try, do you? I mean - the powers I have back home translated to here more or less intact, it sounds like your immunity did the same.

Yeah, it really did. Not that he believes me.

You can't make him be okay with things, he has to figure it out himself.

Yeah. I know.

I just don't know if I can keep playing this game with him. It rips me up inside.

Wouldn't that be the biggest irony? If he discovered I was telling the truth because of how easily I dealt with him dumping me?

Yeah, it would. I'm sorry - that situation really sucks.

It is what it is.

Damn. I really want to be home.

I've been here way too long. It's getting close to a year for me.

I... I got here in June. Six months. Seems like forever.

I keep thinking that if I could go home... just for a little while... just to know that my uncle Alex is okay, that he and the others got away... Maybe even hear something from home.

I'm more selfish than that. Nobody really needs me back home.

I just... I just want to be there.

I'm sure someone needs you, Mercy. Everyone needs someone some time.

...and I swear that sounded less like a bad song lyric in my head.

Yeah. Not so much where I am.

I'm a lone coyote.

No coyote is an island?

I am a rock? I am a coyote island?

..you win, I give.

Nah, it's all good.

There's people who probably depend on my garage to keep their cars running.

Well, there you go, then.

Someone to watch over... the cars. Hmmm, that one didn't work as well.

Yeah. Good try, though.

Ah, well.

Listen... I'll keep an eye out for Thomas, maybe ask around at the Lux tonight, maybe someone's seen him since yesterday.

Thanks. He actually just checked in.

Not that that seems to be going well, but...

Anyway, if you could just, you know, make sure he's okay if you see him... I'd appreciate it.

Will do.

Thanks. Truly, thanks.
