[ Trevor studies Godric carefully for any sign of a lie in those words, but vampires have few tells to begin with and this one... well, he's exceptionally well controlled. Which could lend credence to his claims or just make them more of a convincing smokescreen. Ultimately uncertain, he breathes out slowly.
It's extremely stressful for Trevor, being so close and not fighting. Godric's unnatural stillness is setting off every alarm he has, his instincts screaming danger at the lack of breathing, the absence of those slight movements other creatures make to show they're alive.
This is an undead thing, borne of chaos and death and evil. No one in all of the Belmont legacy has found one to depart from that nature for long. You cannot trust him.
And he won't.
But he finds he does believe the words, the admission that Godric stepped into the light of day. Not a single tell and yet it rings true. ]
Hmm.
[ That seems to be all he's got for a long moment, as he's already issued a threat and not had it risen to. That's rather infuriating, honestly. ]
Say you're right, and it is not. What do you intend to do with yourself from now on?
