[Luceti could probably use a distraction right about now. Shift experiments have a way of killing the mood.]

Okay I'm in a rut. I'm looking up vampire facts for...things, and I'm running into a lot of conflicting data. Anybody out there want to share what they know?

[This is, naturally, also an invitation to vampires to share without outright doing a vampire all-call. Guy remembers quite a few night-walkers wanting to keep their identities as secret as possible, going as far as to pick up their blood from the back door of the bar.]

...and the nature of marital affairs, but I'll understand if that's a difficult subject for some. Don't feel obligated to share.



Oh, and I did some research on writing a love letter, May! Looks like sincerity is the way to go. Don't try to impress him with being someone you're not, and don't try to write it to make it sound like it's poetry or anything. Being honest is the key.

[He didn't really research it okay, he just made that shit up from his own preferences.]

[explaining]

Yes.

[Unfortunately, he can't tell you how. Because he remembers Draco getting all flustered about Guy mentioning his writing in public.]

[Voice]

[explaining]

Yeah, see, that might get you some vague interest, but nothing substantial. Not usually, anyway.

[explaining]

[Oh dear.]

Yeah, but not for me! Not for me, Anise.

[explaining]

Haha! I can't know about something if it's not for practical application?

Holy symbols? What kind of holy symbols?

Re: [Voice]

[geniustheveil]

Well... in predominantly Christian areas of the world, they suggest a Cross, or holy water.

[mikangirl]

Maybe. I think they'd be better off wooing me in other ways. Poetry isn't made of gold.

[ledbythewind]

I see. While I can't say I've ever encountered any vampires myself, I have heard that they're particularly vulnerable to sunlight and garlic for some reason. But I wouldn't put all of my faith in that if you're planning on trying to slay any yourself.

[knightofratatosk]

Oh, um, I mean... it's not like I know her or anything! I just wanted to make sure that she wasn't going to be embarrassed in front of everyone because of this, that's all.

[He actually doesn't know her at all, he's just a derp.]

[video]

[idealism]

I don't know. Maybe because white is the color of death?

In any case, they don't look like that all the time, only when they're hunting.

[ filtered ]

[herotypical]

Careful. One of them's downright evil and the other's a jackass.

...But I guess I'm as close to an authority as one can get, by now. What was the book?

[haveiliedtoyou]

[ Bleak outlook is her middle name. GLaBODOS. Yup. ]

Would you like to know anything in particular, or should I just inform you about anything remotely relevant within my database?

And before you answer that question, I should warn you that my database was the largest on the planet as of my last survey and is likely greater in size than all other forms of information storage within this isolated complex, combined. [ Maybe. ]

[deadpoet]

Some have too many. Makes up for the ones that don't, that.

[deceases]

I won't agree with that, but there's still a chance of minimizing the other dangers, right? I've heard of plenty of incidents here before, and someone who'd walk into that knowingly is just an idiot as far as I'm concerned.

[musubi]

And a lot are real freaking pretty for some reason, though I've seen vampire tales with some real nasty vamps in them.

[explaining]

That's an awfully grim outlook. Maybe I just think more of the people around me than you do.

[now he's just being abrasive for the sake of it]

[explaining]

Gold's the way to get to your heart? How's that work here in Luceti?

[mikangirl]

You know, you're not the first person to ask me that this fortnight. Jewellery works.

[explaining]

Hm. Obviously I'll have to keep that in mind.

[mikangirl]

See, I much prefer your answer over the other guy's.

[explaining]

Really? What'd he say about it?

[mikangirl]

I am apparently one of 'those sorts' of women. [She flutters a hand to her forehead. Clearly she's very put out by this.] Alas.

[explaining]

Oh come on-

[Guy sighs.]

Whatever. His loss.

[mikangirl]

[There's some quiet laughter.] See what I mean? You know how to make a girl feel appreciated.

[explaining]

Well, it's not like I'm actively trying to. You're my friend, Nami. Some idiot doesn't get to think poorly of you just because you know what you like and what you want.
