[Jasper woke up this evening knowing that this was a problem he could no longer ignore. The Beast was twisting inside him, snarling and snapping, driving him toward the blood it imagined it could smell. He considers himself lucky that Matthew and Dorian don't live in the castle, because the smell of vitae nearby might have been too much.]
[For a long moment, there's just the sound of soft growling. Jasper keeps inhaling and then exhaling as he realizes he doesn't know how to put this in a way that his pride will survive. He and Matthew didn't get off on a great foot. But for better or worse, Jasper's elected to treat him like the local baron, with a barony of three whole Kindred. It's not so shameful to make a request of one's baron. He's also the one who promised not to let Jasper starve.]
I need...
[A growl as the Beast writhes and roars, and Jasper has to beat it back.] I need to eat.
I tried the brothel. Sort of. [He went in and went into a room with a girl, but she was far too human for Jasper to fool himself that it was okay. That leaves him dependent on Matthew.]
[If it weren't for the breathy snarls that struck him far too familiar to ignore, Matthew might have. Jasper struck him as young and impertinent; prideful in his youth and possibly not worth much of Matthew's time, but desperation had a way of swaying the Brujah away from pettiness.]
Couldn't get it up? [Yes, he was kind of an asshole. But his next statement lacked the levity of the first.]
You know where I am. Come and we'll sate your hunger mon cherie.
[He'll take the ribbing right now, even as it pulls another growl from him. All that matters is the hunger, and making sure he doesn't lose it and attack a mortal.]
[He doesn't really respond, just closes the tome and goes.]
