Well, it's definitely none of those things, and it's certainly a lazy kiss from the vampire king himself. It's cute, really, that it catches him off-guard, and alucard settles back with a faint smile.

"No, I've always been about this tall. Taller, in my actual form. Little over seven feet." Of course he is. "And Romanian." Like the Dracula thing didn't give that away. "The devil gave me a lot of things, but none of them were worth it in the end." He's a little flippant about that, but it's a coping method, so it's fine.

It definitely could have been innuendo if he'd left it, but Alucard still arches an eyebrow. "Well, it is nice to be able to change my height to suit situations."

Alfred is still on about that, huh? Alucard carefully dips himself under the water for a moment, making sure his hair is all wet, then pops back up to look at him, nodding. "Revenge always felt good, to me. Taking back what was taken away by taking their lives." He's not about to judge Alfred for killing the people that tortured him, after all.
