[ in another time mitchell would've laughed it off and tried to play it cool. maybe would've made a joke about how he was just looking for a cup of coffee, that's all. ha ha ha. nothing to see here! etc.
he can see there's no point in that, though. he doesn't even want to waste the effort to pretend he hasn't just been got, especially considering he can sense something off about this kid. he's not like the vampires mitchell's familiar with, but he's definitely not human.
then, obviously, if he can't play it off the only other option is melodrama. ]
Have you ever seen them feed the tigers at the zoo? [ he turns to face the kid, still scowling. ] They'll eat their bucket of supermarket meat, yeah. They'll have their frozen steak. That doesn't mean given the choice they wouldn't still eat you instead.
[ give predators an inch and they'll slaughter the entire fucking cruise ship. it's inevitable. this blood dispenser is their bucket of thawed filets. ]
