I'm sorry mister policeman, if I wanted to talk I would have called a friend.

Who: "Nobody" and OTA.
When: After the Hunt.
Where: Class, Cafeteria, Lumiere 3 Commons, The library.
What: Zan reacts and doesn't react to the hunt aftermath.
Warnings: He's awful but probably not that awful.

a - Class Punk

Most of the classes are made up of humans. That was always an inevitable reality, school of magic or not. Even with the sunglasses back on, he still cuts a wide curve of people avoiding him. In classes, he notices the majority leaning to one side while the remaining notably odd, inhuman, or fanged sit with their heads down on the other trying desperately to pretend they haven't noticed. He sits with them, leaning back in the chair with his hands behind his head and his feet kicking up on the desk.

"This is nostalgic. Just like old times," He muses aloud. Anyone turning to look will be greeted with a flash of a grin. Particularly fearful humans get an additional, "Boo!" Followed by snickering.

B - Paid Parking

There's an advantage to this. It mostly involves skipping through lines. Who would have thought that the key to a quick cafeteria run was a school-wide murderous rampage and then loudly announcing one's self?

Like saying, "Do you want to be eaten? Move."

He manages to get away with a hefty tray of just about everything he can fit on it. He snags a fair table in the corner full of empty seats and gnaws on various pieces of his bounty as he reads through an old musty book on daemonology.

Without looking up he says, "Seat's not taken but there's a fee. Pay up one bit of food and the chair's yours."

c - Not Sulking

There are still marks in the wall from where he dragged his claws. His curiosity almost gets the best of him in having him check if that girl's door is still in pieces. He resists.

He collapses back on a couch in floor three's common room and removes the sunglasses at last. It's only evident then that he hasn't slept. He's not sleeping now, instead flicking through his school-gifted phone to turn on an old classic.

d - Hide Out

The library is a haunt of his. Sure it means running into people but they were all here under the mutual agreement to leave each other alone. And he could read as much as he liked.

Unfortunately, it doesn't mean he can simply not sense the fear off the nearby soul. They're hiding, tucked behind a bookcase and trying not to be heard. He doesn't have to guess why.

He growls to himself and speaks up, "You want to run for it, then run! Literally nothing's stopping you and I'm not interested in chasing."

The student peeks out, an interesting pink as embarassment-red wars with pale-faced-fear. They flinch when they catch his glance and quickly run off.

"Chh." He settles into a seat and pulls up a book, though it's questionable whether he's reading or just glaring at pages.

"Now, now. I'm fairly certain, picky or no, heartburn is not a pleasant experience."

And someone would take an exception to Grimm being eaten. But the Troupe Master sounds nothing but amused as he hands over the sandwich and takes a seat.

His own food tray is not as packed as Zan's, but it's pretty obvious someone likes spicy food. Which in turn probably doesn't explain the egg sandwich. Or the hot sauce.

(Grimm's taste buds when it comes to spicy food is...odd.)

"But in a way, not being picky is good. There are many things you can try."

Hot sauce goes well on everything and very few can change Grimm's mind on this.

Speaking of, he takes a bite of rice before adding some more sauce into it and mixing it with the chicken. Not hot enough.

And Grimm has to agree with Zan. "Indeed. I do not strictly need to eat but then I would not experience all the kinds of food humanity and those of the Outlands have created over the ages, and why would I do that?"

That creativity was wonderful to experience and even if there were foods he didn't like, Grimm had to admire the love that went into it.

"As a vampire all I am truly required to feed on is blood." A wave of the hand. "But that is not as fun."

He still needed to drink but privately Grimm feels limiting himself to blood just...takes something out of his life. Many vampires attempted to discard everything about who they once were before being embraced, feel it to be lesser now, but Grimm held onto it. A long time ago he was a human named Alderic Lavoie and that person has not left.

He just got more dramatic.

Besides, food just simply tasted good. He hums in thought. "I had a wonderfully deep-fried kraken the last time I visited and a friend introduced me to certain types of chocolate-covered bugs. She preferred them alive but I was not to fond of food I had to run after."

Grimm's totally serious. He loved the members of his Troupe but some of them were certainly...unique.

Oh, Grimm certainly has his problems with the sun itself. But standing indoors and standing outside were two different things and he would happily take advantage of that.

"I am not. It was delicious." A little chewy and it kept twitching about an hour after it died, but it was worth it.

"I think most things about to be eaten tend to be harder to catch." He shrugs. "But my friend tends to be nothing if not persuasive."

Which is a loaded topic all on its own.

"She certainly is."

And Zan is correct when he thinks it is not verbal persuasion. Sure she could talk it out but it would not be the person he brought into the Troupe. For all the eccentric natures of those in the Troupe, he loved them for who they were.

"You meet many people when you travel like I do." Although there is less of that lately due to Grimm's duties in Daybreak. "And the food that comes with it."
