Well, that's what I wondered about even if they would exchange blood on equal terms again seeing how MC's bloodline is more powerful and with the mystery girl appearing going this route it seems like it is foreshadowing something. Wether that isOlders vampires sometimes enthrall younger ones to have them under control, but blood bonds are reserved for a significant other as they bond both vampires with each other, like lovers or life partners. Sharon and the MC are close to form a blood bond, they only need to share blood one more time in a short period of time.
Powerful vampires can break the blood bond or the enthrallment.
A) some sort of romance route
or
B) it plays out that enthrallment doesn't work both ways in this case or you get to one up her in some other way.
remains to be seen but it's kinda telling that the mystery girl doesn't disapprove or even seems to encourage it.
Those are interesting points, don't give Laurie any idea's though in this universe you seem really vulnerable during the day.The obsession inspired by an enthrallment does not always result in the enthralled becoming a thrall. I know that sounds contradictory, but someone who has the power to take what they want (say a much more powerful vampire) and who has the inclination to do so, doesn't have to obey their domitor to drink from them again or keep them close. They can use force to seize the object of their obsession.
There's also the issue that if vampire A and vampire B drink from each other 3 times, but vampire B is already enthralled by vampire C, then vampire A also becomes enthralled to vampire C, potentially without even realizing it. So if say Sharon were already somehow enthralled to dark haired momma, then after drinking 3 times from Sharon, the MC would also be enthralled to dark haired momma.
About your example of enthrallment being passed on, I guess that sort of makes sense as you can interpret it that some essence/blood is in their system and binds somehow, I do wonder if that at some point would then be so diluted that it doesn't have an effect (how many times that would carry over). Still pretty interesting topic and could have some intriguing scenario's.
I've been getting the feeling that Sharon doesn't know much more than the MC. She's a relatively young vampire doing her best to live as human-like a life as she can. From Sharon's perspective, maintaining your humanity as a vampire is the most valuable thing she can teach, and that's precisely what she's focusing on.
Now this is kinda being pulled out of the context that I intended it. I meant that there are multiple occasions where Sharon does know things and then refers to the "I'll tell you later" line. I'm pretty sure it's happened more than 5 times (maybe I should go back and screencap) Of course she can't be all knowing and explaining what feral is at that point in time would be weird. It's just that up until that point it had already been said quite often. There have been a lot of opportunities for the "storyteller" to actually use Sharon as what she is portrayed to be, a mentor explaining how certain mechanisms or lore works in this universe and up until now that hasn't been used at all.Actually I disagree a bit with many that think the fight was not well setup. I think the basic premise is that both Sharon and Andrew knew they did not have much time. Suspect Likesblondes tried to convey that with the fact Sharon could not be bothered by explaining what feral meant and fact police was coming as soon as they finished her off, why they had to run at end. Likely that part of being short on time could have been emphasized more.
(Which in my opinion seems a waste) This also entails that she was portrayed to be quite a bit older especially compared to our new MC fledgling "who is claiming powers left and right" but doesn't know ANYTHING about vampires, current vampire hierarchy in the story. I feel like a lot could have been explained and it just seems the dev is actively avoiding doing so with throwing these "I will tell you later lines" in. You know as in just covering the basics. Of course there seems to be some sort elite underground vampire plot here which Sharon knows nothing about, and you could even wonder how much an Archon would know I'm not talking about those things, as referenced in game they would get some experts for that who might know something.
