[ once the manic joy had passed, the dread began to set into the pit of lestat's stomach to make a home. rowan had truly assisted in avoiding a fate that honestly petrified lestat, so regardless of the clash of personality that had occurred, the vampire was still eternally grateful that guy was even alive. a few scrapes seemed to be standard, but a bullet. that was far too close for comfort.
so lestat once again sits on his hands, tries to tell himself that at least guy was whole when he skittered away from rowan's offer of shelter. another reminder of just why he shouldn't attempt to snatch the mortal himself to keep him well protected under his care. at least he is able to express his concern to adam, to clutch the small man close at night and try not to think about how fragile mortal bodies were. he is able to keep one safe.
so the proof of life comes sooner than he would have hoped, though it is still achingly long. immediately after spotting the new number, lestat's thumbs fly across the on screen keyboard to respond.] Guy?! I heard from Rowan. Was the wound serious?
You are alive and it is all I can ask for. Thank you for trusting me.
You are whole, still?
When will you be back?
[ a little flood of messages - he's concerned, excited. a little overbearing, but he was a father once and in moments like this, it begins to show.]
