Simon doesn't look at Baz the next morning at all. It isn't because of the anger or the fear of what he's becoming, but more because he doesn't know how to tell Baz that this doesn't change a thing. Nothing about turning into a vampire alters his feelings. Though he cried most of the night, all this really means is that he will be hungrier more often - which is fine. Baz said once that he's pretty sure he needs food and blood to survive, so all will be just fine.
But if Simon makes a joke - will Baz make a joke back? He did joke last night, didn't he? Their dynamic has always been how they interact with one another. Being a vampire should actually only make it easier. Yet...
Here they are sitting on opposite sites of the flat pretending they don't know the other is even home. Well, Baz is actually cleaning up the bathroom. It legitimately looks as though one of them killed the other (finally, some would say), but it is really just vomit. As for Simon, he's sitting in Penny's bedroom eating some of her hidden biscuits. She doesn't hide them as well as she thinks she does. Or maybe she doesn't try at all, who knows. Simon doesn't care to know.
Today the pair of them are – were – planning to go to an amusement park. The day is overcast, or so the weather insists that it is, so it is preferred weather for Baz. Well, and Simon now, too. He peeks out the window and winces instantly. What was Baz's adjustment period to sunlight like? Did it take long? Simon cannot stay indoors for a few years. That's not an option!
Simon finally realizes exactly why Baz always jokes about needing a vampire brochure explaining all the things to expect when you're turning. There are so many things that he's going to have to figure out and learn from his boyfriend about this new life. Although, choosing to look at it positively is probably something that Baz won't be teaching Simon anytime soon.
As far as he figures, now they can take all of their meals together. Baz won't even have to worry that Simon is judging him (he's not) anymore (he never was). There was always this self-conscious aspect of drinking that Baz couldn't ever shake when Simon was with him.
When it becomes apparent the two aren't going anywhere (and are in the same place), Simon waltzes into the kitchen. He does everything he can to be normal when he sees Baz has started doing the leftover dishes from last night. Seeing him there is calming. Waking up without knowing he is across the room from him is difficult at times (most of the time, honestly). The time apart is needed (and also not needed, Simon can't decide which most days), so they can develop their relationship more normally, but there has always been this security of knowing he is there. He's not there anymore.
Managing to stride over to Baz with false confidence, he decides to put in all of his chips (so to speak). There is no point in withdrawing and behaving as if the world has ended. Nothing has ended at all! Something else has begun, and for once Simon isn't going to try running away from it.
"So Baz..." Simon starts, confidence still oozing from within and now rolling off of his tongue. He really hadn't planned ahead so he just asks the most ridiculous question that comes to mind; "If I accidentally bite you..."
"Please don't do this." Baz doesn't even ask. He says, he states, he commands. Simon is committed though.
Very committed, indeed; "Will you be re-vamped?" The grin that splays his cheeks is not natural - though is Simon really natural with his wings, tail, and freshly forming fangs? Nothing about Simon Snow is normal. Not anymore, anyway. Possibly not ever.
"I should have just sucked the poison out of you." Baz grumbles, not showing any signs of being impressed with the joke. Simon is quite proud of the remark, though, and shows it by continuing to smirk at him.
"Too late, you chose cheesy vampire jokes over my delicious blood factory." After he says it, well, he knows it may have just crossed a line. It is surprising to him that Baz simply throws a grimace in his direction and nothing more. Simon doesn't know how to fill the deadly silence so he reaches over and grabs at Baz's ass.
Simon holds his groping stance for an awkward amount of time, and it forces Baz to turn literally into Simon and acknowledge him directly; "So what do you think? What happens if I bite you?"
Baz shrugs, "There's no brochure, remember?"
"So let's make one." Flirtation initiated.
And, without really even discussing it in depth, Simon and Baz agree to make a brochure on the crucial information of becoming a vampire.
