The lure: the man starts seeking somewhere quiet. A suggestion, like calm black water, like when he and his friends would go to the seaside back home in Maryland. It might put him at ease.

And the way Armand can't read Daniel is beginning to madden him.

But they walk. It's an ambitious walk, nothing this mortal would seek to accomplish on his own if he were in his right mind, if he weren't following an impulse. He will seek the water and realise there is no coming back to the things that made him happy, and this is where selection is subdual. They will drink his blood, slip his body into those black waters. The hunt will be over.

Would it be more fun, if it was a chase?

"We have some time to kill," comes out a little sharp. Probably not a purposeful vampire joke. "If you would like to speak your mind."
