Who: YOU! And Sascha...kind of.
Broadcast: n/a
Action: Various places
When: now!
Bloodsport
[ When Sascha wakes at his usual time of "when everyone sensible has gone to bed", it isn't really Sascha that wakes up per say. It's still his body, his memories and feelings and experiences are still there...but there's also more. Much more. The one who opens his eyes slowly and finds himself under the paw of an oversized wolf isn't the forgetful and over-affectionate creature who thinks himself a vampire, but someone else entirely.
Someone he used to be. Is? The conflicting memories and thoughts that assault him are disorienting enough that he defaults to autopilot as he pulls himself from beneath Bigby's limbs, giving his fur a habitual pat--but he's quick to leave after that. Those habits aren't his and the wolf, not his companion. He has never shared the company of anyone while he's slept. Predators don't lie with their prey, they don't socialize with them and befriend them as he...no, Sascha, apparently has.
He doesn't stumble into the halls nor show any other telltale signs of distress, but the way he carries himself and moves with a much calmer, more solemn demeanour doesn't fit the goofball vampire who normally roams the halls so late at night. There's definitely a different feel to him now.
It's not Sascha's habit but one entirely his own that drives him to pass by the rooms of each of his crew mates one by one, effectively stalking them and getting a sense of the real versus his memories. So, Bloodsport. The question here is are you awake, and do you have the heeb-jeebs yet? ]
Iskaulit + Other ships
[ There's an immense feeling of discord that comes from waking with the thoughts and memories of someone you've never been as though you were placed on top of an already considerably sizable amount. It's kind of like waking up one day and suddenly remembering hundreds upon hundreds of lives you've never actually lived even though it feels like you have. The creature that would be Sascha is experiencing that now: he knows the Fleet and doesn't. He's met the strange humans and mutants and others here, but hasn't. He can remember that each evening Sascha wakes he hops from ship to ship to check on certain individuals--a habit he breaks immediately when he heads to the Iskaulit instead after scoping out the Bloodsport.
It's irritating. Strange. He's not sure what he'd expected to happen once he had given into hunger and desperation and devoured himself all those years ago...but it certainly wasn't this. To remember who and what he is, why Sascha's never known any of that, and why he now chooses to keep more to himself than seek out his 'usuals.'
And of course by keeping to himself, I mean he's been straying downwind of the fox area, silently staring and stalking as he debates the point of hunting any of them when he knows it will do nothing to abate his hunger. The same goes for the others aboard the Iskaulit...they make for a much more tempting meal.
Heck, so does everyone else aboard the Atroma's fleet. So if your character happens to be unlucky enough to be wandering alone at this late hour they might just get the sense of being followed. Or hunted, depending on how good that sixth sense is.
Or you could just run into him on the Iskaulit being aloof and creepy. That works too. ]
[ ooc; for those not on my plurk SASCHA IS AUGMENT GLITCHING BACK THE MEMORIES AND PERSONALITY HE USED TO HAVE before he actually became "Sascha." Which means he's old and tired and he eats humans in his spare time so clearly this means you should come on by.

...I did. And do. [ especially now, as he takes a moment to truly appraise her under the light of her question.
Sascha adores her. He loves everything about her and every memory of her, from their very first meeting where she phased through his hug, to the pizza party and the revelation that humans too ate raw meat from time to time. He remembers confessing his age, that he was a vampire (how misplaced it was), discovering that she would one day inevitably die although he'd only just met her a few short months prior.
She's the meter by which he judged Winn: initially worried she would no longer have time for him once she began to date him, but never once disliking or disregarding Winn. All he needed to know was that Kitty liked him, which meant he had to be good. Because Kitty is good. Kitty is perfect, the sort of person he's never even dreamed of finding and yet somehow met anyway.
Sascha doesn't understand what his feelings mean. The Sheol doesn't rightly understand either. But between the two of them and so many others between he finds an impulse which Sascha would never have or known to act on. ]
I want... [ He begins, but doesn't finish the thought. Because he's leaning in towards her again, and this time not with the intent to rest against a shoulder. ]

I'm with Winn. This isn't going to happen. [Firm, but as kindly as she can.]
no subject
Because he does. Hell even Sascha understands, and it's why he lifts one hand to place it over hers, eyes lidded in defeat. ]
Sascha doesn't understand. [ This feeling in particular that he has for you. ] Don't tell him. [ If he comes back. ]

I am...sad. It's very strange.

Didn't get sad much before Sascha? [Suicidal and lonely for sure.]
