2nd Joke - Vampires Were Not In The Brochure [Call | Everyone]

[xochipilli_cursed]

[[Aaron wakes up still tired and exhausted. Loosing blood will do that to you. Aaron places a call to the town because he can't think of how else to ask. Unfiltered because Aaron isn't aware of all that stuff yet.]]


"Hello? Does anyone know anything about vampires being in town? Or anyone else who bites your neck and drinks your blood? Is that normal?"


[[Should he expect more of the same? He was just starting to like some aspects of this town too.]]

Yeah... it's pretty dangerous sometimes.

"Have you been here long too?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Almost four months.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"So how bad has it been since you got here?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

The first week I was here, people were losing body parts in exchange for stuff they used to have at home.

It was terrible.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Body parts!? You mean they were trading them? Why would you do that?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

They didn't tell anyone. They did this cereal box top promotion thing. You collect so many and you can get back some of your stuff. But the 'processing fee' turned out to be body parts. They just disappeared right off people when they went to the post office to turn things in. I lost one of my eyes, and a lot of other people had it even worse.

"That's insane. That's just too much."

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

You should be ready for stuff like that to happen. Sometimes you can't avoid it.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Stuff like that? Seriously?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it's worse than that. Sometimes they just kill people for no reason.

"How about running away? I'm pretty fast when I want to be."

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Grady can teleport.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"There really isn't any hope is there?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

The best you can do is make lots of friends, and stick together.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Oh, that's just great.]]

"Oh, okay. Really?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Strength in numbers, y'know?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I guess so. I think I can do that. I mean everything strange was taken away right?"

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Yeah, any special powers or anything like that - all gone.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Okay. I think I can do that then."

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Anyway... I probably won't be much help keeping you safe, but there are definitely a lot of strong people here in town. I'm sure you'll meet some good allies.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"So far the strongest people I have seen all have threatened me. I'm not so sure."

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

You'll find someone.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Hopefully. So what do you do to not go insane here?"

I'm working on a photo collage.
