Energy Vampire Ass
"My need is valid, your fatigue is not."
This ass enters a conversation full and leaves it fuller, at your direct expense. Their needs are urgent, boundless, and always valid; your exhaustion, by contrast, is a scheduling issue. They will call to vent for ninety minutes and hang up refreshed, leaving you face-down on the couch wondering what just happened to your afternoon and your will to continue. Every interaction is a transfer, and the flow runs exactly one way. It is never malicious. They simply run on a fuel that happens to be you. A charming, bottomless well of need, draining the room one supportive listener at a time, and always, somehow, the one who had the harder day.
