Monday night: Watching Thomas play not-so-nice with some vampires.
Thomas contacted me about helping to shield him from any mind-fuckery while he stalked a vampire that'd been eyeballing the Tenement. Sounded like he got clearance from Kavi, so I did it. Used Correspondence and Mind to keep tabs on Thomas and the vampire from a couple blocks away in the safety and comfort of my Porsche. Thomas ended up tracking "David" into the sewers, all around down there, and finally ended up in a sealed off room under the power plant. David went to sleep there and Thomas made off with the map the vampire'd been referencing as he'd been navigating. Thomas then went exploring with the map, located three vampires asleep in a different section of the sewers, and killed them by stabbing them in the heart with an arrow, then finishing them off with a knife. There were three human captives down there with them. Thomas liberated them, led them up to the surface, got them dumped off at a motel room, and then called me for a lift. I picked him up and gave him a lift to a copy store: he copied the document (and I got a nice 'photographic memory mental image' of it), and then he returned the paper and put it back on David, who was still asleep.
I think the interesting thing that happened was all the tricks Thomas was using. First, he made himself look like a much younger native American boy who did not look like Thomas at all. Second? He'd turned himself into a gas or vapor for most of the time, rendering him practically invisible and capable of slipping through tiny cracks while still carrying his bow and arrow and clothes. Thomas? He's an assassin's wet dream. Jesus fuckin' Christ on a pogo stick. The way he killed those three sleeping vampires? All cold and efficient-like? He's done this before. He's probably done it a lot.
Killing the three vampires was stupid and gratuitous. David or Rose is going to notice, wonder how it happened, and change up their patterns. They'll make more vampires, too. It's just a matter of time. But you think I'm going to tell Thomas what he did was stupid? Hell to the no.
