One of my favorite au types

Simon faces him alone and doesn’t manage to hurt him at all. He starts bleeding at some point and Dracul stops, because he recognizes the scent of that blood. It’s like his son’s and it stops him short because his son is lying in a crypt below them all because he made a mistake. 

He asks Simon his name and wishes that the mirror was still here to determine the truth. But he knows it is in the part of his soul that still remains and swallows hard, but manages to tell Simon exactly what happened to his father. 

They go down, into the depths of the castle to see the crypt, picking up speed as they hear a scream. 

Alucard is there, awake and in pain. He’s staring at the mirror like the world has ended and it has for him. 

Oh maaan that is such a hard choice. It’s a really hard choice since the games are pretty different experiences based on what you’re looking for.

I like to think it's more akin to "Have you accepted Jesus Christ as you Lord and Savior?"

“Because that just worked so well, the last time.”

Strangely, I heard nothing about him on the way to Brennenburg. The only warning I received was Gabriel’s instruction to wait until the morning before proceeding through the forest.

I had already obtained a number of Herbert’s belongings from the customs house before going to Brennenburg. A pocket watch that didn’t even work was a useless trinket, not a memento. It simply became another reminder of Herbert’s certain death, which I couldn’t bear to look at further.

Have a nice day of birth! <3
