jason-stackhousee:

Why? Ya think I’m gonna go runnin’ back to Hoyt with information? We’re best friends, Jess, not women.

*laughs* Me? Settle down? That ain’t likely. I think I’m gonna be that bachelor uncle to all of Sookie’s little, blonde, mind readin’ kids. With a pool. I’m thinkin’ of buildin’ a pool.

Well…hey! I ain’t the gabbin’ type, and I’m a woman!…but thanks, it’s good to know I really can trust someone around here. Sometimes I don’t know if people really like me or are just plain scared of me.

Aw, I don’t know…you don’t see you’re self ever settlin’ down at all? I think you’d be a great uncle, though, and maybe even a great dad someday too! But you have plenty of time.

*giggles* I think you’d build the best pool in Bon Temps.

[Story Time]: Bill//Jessica

vampire-bill:

Bill crossed the room to her and grabbed Jessica by her upper arms. His pale blue eyes were brimmed in crimson, this was so painful, so heartwrenchingly painful— but it was for her own good. “You have to go. Listen to me Jessica. As your maker, I release you.” The elder vampire’s voice shook with each word, the blood tears finally spilling over to cascade red trails down his pallid cheeks.

He loved her, god did he love her. Jessica was his daughter, and he loved her as much as he loved Thomas and Sarah— but just like them— he couldn’t keep her safe. He was a shitty father and a shitty maker and she needed to understand that. “I nearly killed her!” Bill cried, his face twisted up in anguish. “Everything I touch turns to shit! Everyone I love dies! I will not have that fate for you! I will not have my only daughter die because of me! Now go, I release you Jessica, go pack your things at once!” The vampire released her upper arms, a tremor went through his body as he stumbled back, his heart breaking in his chest over what he just had to do, not even realizing that he had just admitted to the redhead, what he really thought of her and how much she meant to him.

Jessica’s anger was immediately drained and replaced with shock when she felt Bill’s strong grip around her arm. Her jaw dropped and her blue eyes widened at the sudden movement, staring into his own, ridden with pain. He was truly serious.

When he uttered the formal sounding sentence, Jessica felt as if the ground had fallen through beneath her. They sounded so simple but so harsh and it might have been because she was so distraught, but she felt like some part of her felt differently now. Like something was empty that used to be full. Jessica couldn’t even think of words as she watched the bloody tears run down Bill’s face.

She quickly looked away and began shaking her head in disbelief, feeling tears quickly form around her own eyes. This couldn’t be happening, he wasn’t right, he was upset and exaggerating…when he removed his grip, Jessica just melted onto the couch behind her, grateful it was there or she might’ve just sat straight on the ground. “That’s not true…” She finally said quietly, doing her very best to collect herself. They couldn’t both be a wreck. “You’ve saved Sookie tons of times. And you even saved me when you turned me,” She added, thinking back. “I’ve never been this happy in my whole life.” She finally managed to look back up to him, the tears rolling down her cheeks. She put on the firmest voice she could muster, which still wasn’t much. “You’re not “releasin’” me, or whatever the hell that is. And you might be scared, but I’m scared too. I’m not ready to be on my own…I already drained someone cuz I didn’t know how to stop,” She suddenly blurted, not wanting to have said it, but she just couldn’t handle that again, especially with no Bill around. He was just never around.

[Ladies Night Out]: Sophie-Anne//Jessica

vampire-queen-of-yahtzee:

Sophie-Anne couldn’t help rolling her eyes— like she would have even tried to in the first place. “Ugh, I know he’s your maker and all that, and we all feel tied to them in some way or another, but you don’t need to make up excuses for him, dear.” She patted Jessica’s hand in a gentle reassurance and smiled. She brushed off the worrisome tone that carried the girl’s words to her ears, not giving two shits about Bill Compton enough to care.

“Oh honey, we’ll get you some amazing dresses and pretty under things and all those lovely garments! And I’ll show you what being a vampire is all about.” Once more the Queen squeezed Jessica’s hand before her cool digits slid back into her own lap. 

Her voice softened a little compassionately. “You have to decide for yourself. You can always feed without killing you know, I could teach you.” She beamed a smile at the other redhead as she punctuated her offer with the cock of an elegantly arched eyebrow. Sophie-Anne would show Jess what her maker could not, and she was sure she would be grateful for the guidance. “You know, most newborn vampires don’t survive past the first year of being turned?” The Queen asked, seeing how far the baby vampire’s knowledge of their kind went.

If Jessica were still able to, she would have blushed at the queen’s remark. She nodded, not wanting to discuss it further, thinking she of all vampires wouldn’t be the one to change the queen’s opinion of her maker. She thought Bill didn’t like her either, so it didn’t bother her so much. At least the queen liked her!

She couldn’t help but smile and feel her excitement grow as she talked about what they might get. Bill hadn’t ever given her much to really splurge when shopping, and she didn’t dare bother to ask, especially as of late, so this trip was going to be a real treat. “I can’t wait…I mean, I’ve fed before and stuff, but…” It was too late. The thought had already started. “…Bill doesn’t really like it when I feed off humans,” she admitted. “…I still do though, occasionally, when I really need it…” She added, somehow finding trust in the queen even after the short period of time. She didn’t think the queen would mind, so why not? Jessica appreciated the familiarizing gestures, so she felt even more comfortable speaking with her.

Jessica raised her own eyebrows at the fact the queen revealed. “No…really?” She was genuinely surprised. Bill had never told her…it seemed to make sense now, but Jessica was surprised that even though her own first year had been rough, she had made it pretty well, no real close calls. The invitation for the lesson was very enticing. Bill’s voice echoed in her head of how he couldn’t protect her or teach her things well, and she learned to accept it and learn on her own…but a lesson would be more than appreciated. She eagerly nodded. “Yes…I mean, you don’t have to, I know how to control myself relatively well…” She didn’t want to look too dumb and inexperienced. Still, she thought of the trucker that had died in her house, but she wasn’t going to mention that.

Y’all know what I mean?

[Story Time]: Bill//Jessica

vampire-bill:

Bill fretted to himself as he led the way down the ancient stairs that flowed down into the foyer and living room. Pacing a moment, he pinched the bridge of his nose as he tried to think of a way to begin telling his progeny the truth. “I was kidnapped. From the restaurant where I took Sookie. By Russell Edgington, my maker Lorena.. I just..” Bill stopped and turned to stare at Jessica, his shoulders slumping with defeat, his undead heart shattering in his chest.

“You need to go stay with Eric, or with Pam. I will pay them to take care of you for the next year. But.. I cannot take care of you, Jessica. I cannot protect you like you deserve. I cannot give you the family you need. I want you to pack your things.” Bill’s voice was barely above a whisper as he turned his back to her— and it shook horrendously, the words that fell from his lips were full of anguish and trembled with every syllable. The vampire waited for her reaction, waited for his daughter to run up the stairs and do as he told her to do, he never expected what came next.

Jessica had a feeling he had been kidnapped, and now it was finally confirmed. She felt weird feeling a small sense of relief wash over her, knowing that he hadn’t left her on his own. She thought that might have hurt more. She tried to register all the information, but mentioning his maker smacked her in the face. She knew that Bill’s hatred of his nature sort of came from his maker, but she didn’t really know the details…Bill’s mysteriousness was really hitting her.

She ran her confused blue eyes all over his face, searching for any more explanation as she listened to his sudden instructions. It felt like he kicked her in the stomach. Her jaw dropped and she looked away from him as she struggled for words. She wasn’t sure what to stay first. “You want me to…? For the next…? I can’t leave! I won’t leave! You’ve been protectin’ me just fine, and I’m learnin’ on my own…just…no!” She stood up and crossed her arms, trying to be assertive and authoritative while choking back tears. She could never go back to Eric and Pam. They could barely stand her when she was with them. “Now what happened in Mississippi? And what did you do to Sookie?” Jessica demanded, deciding focusing the attention back on him and the whole incident would take his mind off…what he’d said.

Yeah, Hoyt’s like the brother I ain’t never had. Well, I mean, I had him, ‘cause I have Hoyt. It’s like… ya don’t need to be blood related to be family, ya know? That’s how it is with Hoyt. Ya like the first girl he’s ever been crazy ‘bout. So, I’m thinkin’ he thinkin’ of makin’ ya family soon.

Reckon raisin’ girls ain’t so easy! That still don’t excuse any of it, but it’s interestin’ to think ‘bout.

Yeah, I know what you mean…and I think it’s real sweet. I never really had anyone like that, but I thought it was real nice for people who did. Aw…yeah, he says that…

Wow, really? I mean I love him and livin’ with him is great so far…I don’t know, I probably shouldn’t be talkin’ to my boyfriend’s best friend about it.

But what about you? Find yourself a girl to settle down with yet?

[Ladies Night Out]: Sophie-Anne//Jessica

vampire-queen-of-yahtzee:

Sophie-Anne was delighted when the baby vampire didn’t keep her waiting, punctual, she loved that and her bright smile conveyed her pleasure as she watched Jess slide into the backseat of the limo beside her. In a flourish, the Queen pulled the fellow redhead into a hug, kissing one cheek and then the other— in the air of course— before launching a flurry of excited words at Jessica. “As am I dear! Being cooped up all night and day is simply appalling, and I like you already, you’re punctual, I don’t like to be kept waiting. Please, call me Sophie.” The Queen gushed, having gone from hugging Jessica to lightly holding the girl’s hand. 

“I have not had a girls night out in a coon’s age! We shall have such a blast they will be speaking about it for the next century!” The eccentric Queen giggled. Leaning forward, she called to her driver. “Louie, press on please! Back to New Orleans!” Turning back to Jessica, the redhead’s smile was impish to match her jewel-like blue eyes. “Tell me, you aren’t one of those fucking mainstreamers are you?” Sophie-Anne made a sound of disgust as she asked.”Because if not, I can show you what being a vampire is all about.” Her grin turned downright devious at that point.

The queen’s smile instantly put the baby vampire at ease. The hug and the kiss made her feel even more welcome, and she immediately felt her nerves evaporate. Jessica gave her a big smile and nodded, now officially on a first-name basis with the queen of the state. She made a mental note of her appreciation of her timeliness as the queen spoke to the driver.

“Me neither…I feel like I’ve just been so borin’ lately. Either workin’ or worryin’ about Bill…” Jessica immediately cut herself off and smiled, trying to toss the last part off. She probably shouldn’t have said that, she wasn’t sure what the queen knew about Bill’s recent activities, but she didn’t want to get it into it. She just wanted to make a good first impression.

“…but I’m so excited for tonight! I wanna start goin’ out more, and I’d love to find some new dresses for Fangtasia, or even just some better everyday normal stuff,” Jessica said, trying to change the subject, but it was all true.

Realizing the queen had asked her something, Jessica quickly blurted out, “Yes. Well, no, sort of…” She had said yes on auto-pilot, but she wanted to be honest, since the queen seemed to be ok with it. “I…Bill wants me to be, and so do I, it’s just…kind of hard,” She admitted, thinking of how wretched TruBlood still tasted to her, but she didn’t want to make a bad image of Bill. When the queen grinned, however, Jessica’s ears perked up.

“I…I think I’d like that…” She said, hoping she wouldn’t regret saying it, but her curiosity combined with her hunger was eating her alive.

[Story Time]: Bill//Jessica

vampire-bill:

Bill had taken a small step back from Jessica’s bedroom door to politely stand in front of it before his progeny excitedly swung it open to reveal him on her threshold. He looked at her with soulful pale blue eyes and sighed, nodding. “Yes, I do think we need to talk about it.” But even as he spoke, Bill’s hand came up to curl against the round of Jessica’s cheek as he sighed.

“Come on, lets go downstairs and speak. I’m just glad to see you here, that you are alright.” He gave her a ghostly smile before he turned and headed downstairs. Even though Bill was constantly busy and unable to raise her, he knew he could never abandon her. But at the moment, he was beyond terrified of someone killing Jessica in retaliation. He didn’t know what else to do except… with a heavy heart, he decided what he should do.

Jessica was almost surprised he actually agreed to talk. She stared up at him with her large blue eyes, searching his own for the reason for the sudden change of mind. When she felt his touch on her cheek, she gave a small smile, desperately wishing to comfort him or do something, but she thought that maybe after tonight, she finally could.

She furrowed her brows. “Of course I am…” She said trying to calm him, feeling more and more uneasy. She was about to add, Why wouldn’t I be?, but she kept it to herself. She wasn’t about to demand answers when he was finally willing to talk. She hurriedly followed him downstairs, feeling the tension and worry rise within her. She hoped she wasn’t going to hate hearing what he was going to say.

They finally made it down to the living room and Jessica sat down, never taking her eyes of her maker. He seemed more tense and sad than usual, and that was saying something. She couldn’t keep quiet any longer. “Are you ok? All this silence and mystery and you bein’ gone so long…what’s goin’ on?” She asked as calmly as she could, wanting to know just so she could calm down.
