first stab; video

[animator]

[Really, at first, Anita looks nothing short of irate, sitting in front of the camera with her arms crossed. She's already heard every possible explanation from the folks at the hospital, and while she's done her best to take it with a grain of salt, she's not pleased. It's difficult to wrap her head around, honestly, and that's saying something, considering what she does for a living and how often she spends her time ass-deep in myths and legends. All sorts of things that people once thought were fictional but were, in truth, real.

This is just a twist she had never expected.]

The funny thing is that this is only bordering on the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me.

[She's certainly seen worse. Nobody is trying to chain her to a bed and slice her up, so, you know, that's a definite plus.]

I'm sure plenty of other people have shown up and started talking about how this just can't be true, so I'm going to skip that part for now and worry about finding out more about this place. I'll assume we're not looking at an island full of humans, given the circumstances. There's nothing wrong with that, but humor me. I'm curious. Are the police any good, or is it all Gangs of New York up in here?

Oh. Well. Good then.

[animator]

We're not going to have a problem, are we? I'm curious, though. Since you don't bite people, how do you choose to feed?

[nicevampireguy]

Blood bags don't hurt anyone.

[animator]

They sure don't. Wish I saw more vamps like you on the streets.

[nicevampireguy]

Thanks?

[animator]

It was meant to be a compliment. Sorry if it didn't come out that way. I'm not anti-vampire by default, you know.

[nicevampireguy]

That's good to know, actually.

[animator]

I thought you might appreciate hearing that. Just because I have a job to do back home doesn't mean I think every vampire is in dire need of staking.
