"I didn't ask for anyone to take care of me," Jacoby grumped, pushing his wet hair out of his face again. "Dusty's gone full mom mode on me already, I don't need the angry person look at me too when I didn't even do anything…this time. I could put you all out of your misery and just go sit on the roof and let the sun turn me into KCV - you know, Kentucky Friend Vampire."

"I can explain," he said, trying to hide his hands that were covered in blood behind his back. "I stumbled on the body, literally and fell right into it." Was that believable? Probably not but last resort he could just run.

"Can't go out in the sun, you know that," he muttered, shaking his head. "Got a disease that'll burn me right up if I do. Vitamin D is not my friend."

Jacoby never asked for this. He didn't want it. He never could understand why people wanted to keep him from ending it all. He was clearly a disaster, only someone that would cause harm to everyone else around him so why did they want to keep him around? After he said it, he was just waiting to get yelled at, again, by Lia. Though it didn't come and it had him perplexed. "Yeah, guess I should thank him when I see him again." Though, he tried to avoid the other as much as possible. He knew that Myrkos didn't like him much but hey, Jacoby didn't like himself a lot either. "Um, yeah, thanks. Can you not tell Dusty where I am? I don't think I can deal with her little sad deer face looking at me."

amelia could remember when dusty brought jacoby to her, practically begging and asking for help for the inexperienced vampire. at the beginning, she was clear about her distaste for him. however, the more she taught him, the more maternal she had become. plus, with dusty's doting help assuage her reluctance. darn her and her empathic heart. lia could feel her lips quirking downward, his suicidal ideation and urge to meet the sun never failed to make her heart squeeze in agony. but quickly as it appeared, it formed into a barely-there smile. " i suppose that's progress, yes. " she affirmed with a delicate nod. " and good thing myrkos was quick on his feet, too. he wiped their memories of what had happened. so needn't to worry about the authorities. if you'd like, you're free to relax here and away from everyone. "

At least she was giving him some grace for trying. That mattered to him somehow. He just hated not being able to control himself when he got really mad, he didn't mean to do it either, it just happened. The question if he was okay made him shrug, leaning back and puffing his cheeks out. "Well, I didn't think about walking out as the sun was coming up today so, I guess that's an improvement ."

when jacoby's eyes lowered to the ground, amelia's deepened frown steadily quirked upwards with a pleasing smirk. she was proud of him for standing up for the girls and rid of the world of such an annoying filth. was it the way she would have solved the problem if she were in his shoes? possibly. she let out of delicate sigh, her features taking a neutral expression as she stepped forward and placed a hand on his shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze. " well, that i can understand, love. i'm proud of you trying. it's the least you can do, i can see that. are you okay? " she asked him. the question wasn't exactly referencing about the previous mishap. but more so how he was holding up in general.
