((Vicki in media))
Eli

Elli and Patti chase each other to Ellis forest of a room, the two barking and giggling.
"Vicki" Franki almost groans as she stands up, I watch her. Her hair swaying with her a she walks towards the kitchen, probably going to make herself a coffee.
Vicki emerges from the wall behind Franki.
Didn't know she could do that... Come to think of it, I don't know what she is...

"you called blood demon" Vicki smirks at the new formed nickname she had just created, Franki's hair starts to lift off the ground, then launches at the small purple haired girl. Franki turns to her,
"you dare call me one of those selfish beings again" she growls, her eyes start to glow.
This isn't good
Franki lifts her Crimson hair away from her right eye, showing her green skull marked pupil. She mutters something I couldn't quite make out, then Vicki starts screaming in pain, she lifts her hands to her ears. Franki moves away from her swiftly, kicking a bowl to her.
Vicki starts bleeding from her eyes, as if she was crying a waterfall of red tears.
I blink,
never seen Franki do that before.

Franki sits beside me, her hair dragging the now full bowl over.
"Ugh" she groans "I hate using that" she pressed her palm over her hair where her right eye would be.
"yeah" was all I could say, still shocked.
"you're quiet" she sips at her coffee "no famous Eli quote?" Her eyes move to look at me, I shrug, not moving my eyes from the blood bowl. "it's for you" she notices.

"thanks" I shake my head a little to snap me out of the strange trance I seemed to be in and pick up the bowl and drop my head into it, drinking the sweet red liquid.
I lift my head out with a happy sigh "nothing like protein in the morning" the blood dripping from my hair onto my bloody face.
"I was going to suggest you eat something" Franki looks at the TV "this wasn't what I had in mind, but it'll do" she puts the coffee down and reaches between her boobs and pulls out a cigarette. She hands it to me,
"Thanks babe" I say without thinking. I put the smoke to my lips and grab my lighter from my pocket.
"pardon" Franki slowly looks around to me
" uh-" I stop, realising what I just said. "thank you mistress" I correct myself quickly. Can't get anything past her.
"what I thought" she puts her cigarette to her lips and it lights immediately with the tip of her finger.
It was silent for a moment, just the breaths of Franki an I could be heard.
"hey" I look at her, she looks back at me, raising a nonexistent eyebrow
"what's Vicki?" I look over to the curled up dead body, noticing the floor hadn't eaten her.
"she's immortal" Franki drags on her smoke,
"yeah, but she's got to be more than that" I examine the lump, she didn't look comfortable in the least. Her arms backwards and head cracked into her chest.
"she's very similar to you" Franki didn't sound interested.
"if that's your way of saying you don't know, you could have just said so" I can't pry my eyes away from the purple girl. "why hasn't the carpet eaten her?" I point out
"she's immortal" Franki repeats herself,
"that doesn't mean the carpet won't eat her" I slowly lift my smoke to my lips "you're supposed to be immortal and the carpet eats you" I pull myself away from the dead girl and look at Franki
"the carpet isn't the only thing" Franki glances over to me, I could feel a sly smirk creep across my face

"Eli?" A small voice spoke my name, I snap out of my dirty thoughts and look around to find Naomi glaring at Franki
"you alright Naomi?" I ask the pink haired young woman. She nods and locks eyes with me
"come play with me" she almost begs, holding an Xbox controller up to me, I smile and nod my head.
"yeah, okay" I jump over the sofa to Naomi,

I lean back over the couch to Franki "you know where I am if you need me" I kiss her cheek then turn back to Naomi,
"what game?"
