A/N: This was written for the tth100. The only linking thing for these is Faith in them. Just a little something that popped into my head while I was rereading the Anita Blake series.
Summary: Do the vampires in Anita's world have souls? If so, what does that mean for her and Jean-Claude?
"So, you're positive that vampires here don't have souls?" Faith asked me calmly.
"Yeah- for them to have a soul and do all that…"
"The same could be said about some humans."
"Why debate this?"
"Because of how Jean-Claude looks at you. Where I'm from, only those with souls think about more than death. You still have those here, so maybe whatever makes someone a master helps hold on to their soul."
I thought about what that meant as I drove home. Could Jean-Claude have really been telling me the truth about his feelings? And where did that leave me?
