[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]

Yeah, I can see how it'd get [annoying, irritating, infuriating] repetitive. If you live in such a culture.

[explaining]

Really? Would you mind sharing some of them with me?

Re: voice;

[explaining]

[no]

Yeah, definitely not leaves. Carrot tops aren't as bad, but probably shouldn't eat that either.

Also, don't eat wild celery, alright?

[Voice]

[explaining]

Hahaha, yeah, that's very good advice to live by. [Something to strive for at least.] Sometimes it gets more complicated than that, but following your heart is usually a safe bet.

[Voice]

[explaining]

Oh yeah, way way cuter.

[explaining]

Yeah, they do say that.

[voice]

[explaining]

Just curious.

So do you think love at first sight is a myth?

voice;

[explaining]

[okay]

Sure. I, ah, I keep reading about them being weak to sunlight and garlic and crosses...is there any merit to any of that? Because some of those seem awfully arbitrary.

[voice]

[explaining]

Families? So it's more like a caste system there, then just some kind of underground community?

[explaining]

It's a sick, sick habit of mine. Knowing things for the sake of knowing them.

np i'm a super slow tagger anyway o/

[explaining]

Very, very sure. Promise, Anise, the second I think about getting married, I'll let you know.

[He won't propose, but he'll let her know.]

[ledbythewind]

I suppose I can understand garlic when you consider how it smells. Perhaps they have especially sensitive noses?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

... so is she writing a love letter to a vampire?

[Voice]

[geniustheveil]

[She's not particularly religious herself, so Ami has to think for a moment.]

I suppose it depends. If it's to ward off evil, different religions have different beliefs about how to do that. The Christian lore might just come from the fact that many vampire legends come from parts of the world that had very large Christian populations.

[Voice]

[distressedude]

[A soft laugh.] Don't you think it seems rather lonely to write a love letter when you have no one to send it to?

[musubi]

Oh man, I gotta be specific?

Shit, I hardly paid much attention to any of that and I haven't been in my original world for a couple years now.

[ filtered ]

[herotypical]

[ instantly, her voice switches gears. the codex was the most whole description of the slayer's duties in the end times. ]

H-how much have you read?

[video]

[idealism]

The look like their old self.

...What does your vampires look like?

[breezing]

[ Directly before he died. 8| ]

Ummm, back when I first got here the first time, in July-ish?

[deadpoet]

Not that they ever get it right.

[mikangirl]

Haha, admittedly I'm not being fair. [But she appreciates that tack nonetheless, so have a wide smile.] I have a lot of good male friends. I guess I'm just thinking of the people who don't know me better. And really, they don't count.

[haveiliedtoyou]

I think the world would probably be better off without any creatures intelligent enough to think for themselves yet stupid enough to trap themselves in such an arrangement willingly. And since marriage also has the goal of reproduction... it just seems like a very poor idea overall. [ Concise, indeed. ]

voice;

[positivelycharged]

Wild celery? Is it different from not-wild celery?

....Does it bite?

voice;

[namesthestars]

Sunlight is very dangerous indeed; vampires prefer the moon. Her light is thicker and less burning.

Garlic tastes wonderful in sauces.

Crosses....

[Crosses burn, but nothing like the sun.]

Also disliked.

[voice]

[folklorist]

Something like that, yes. There's vampires who are considered ancients among their race, and from them most of the other families have been derived. The bloodlines of all other families of vampires go back to Dracula's bloodline.
