Kara: “We can certainly try this more than once. I mean, the bowl is reusable, and we have plenty of owl blood.”
Jason: “These guns look old, and immense. Course you’re used to immense guns by now.”
Me: “Cause he’s been hanging around with me!”
Jason: “No, these are clearly bigger than the ones Tom’s been holding.”
Me: “Those aren’t the guns I mean!” *ARM-FLEX*
Jason: “Your ringtone is Rick Astley.”
Kara: “My phone? How is that possible?”
Jason: “You may want to blame Dr. vonNatsi for that.”
Chris: “Cause he’s never gonna give you up.”
Jason: “But he’s also never gonna let you down.”
Jim: “He’s never gonna run around and hurt you.”
Kara: “…Is this ‘cause I brought a unicorn coloring book tonight?”
Jason: “Look, I wouldn’t worry about it. He’s never gonna make you cry.”
Me: “But will he say goodbye?”
Jason: “Well, he’ll never tell a lie, or desert you.”
During our first in-game time jump, all of our characters took time to take care of various accumulated business. The following scene illustrates just some of the shenanigans Tom got up to on his week off.
During our first in-game time jump, all of our characters took a week of time to take care of various accumulated business. The following scene illustrates the next stage of Captain Anstis’s elaborate master plans.
During our first in-game time jump–aka, “Spring Break Vampire”–all of our characters take a week of time deal with various accumulated business. The character with the most business-business, of course, is Rabenholz. The following story provides a brief glimpse of his empire building efforts during this time, as well as his new assistant Rhona’s realization of what exactly she’s gotten into.
Jason: “As you’re staring at him, you notice Claude never blinks.”
Me: “Yeah…sounds about right….”
Jim: “Tom doesn’t have to blink either!”
Me: “That’s true, I don’t have to, but I do out of habit. Also for emphatic effect, because dammit, it is so hard to write vampires when they don’t have heartbeats, they don’t sweat, they don’t breathe, so finally I’m like fuck it, they blink and breathe habitually, because I need something to indicate emotion!”
Kara: “I need to make some delivery requests.”
Jason: “Alright, GrubHub should still be open this time of night.”
Kara: “Then I will order some food on GrubHub.”
Jim: “Wait, when was the last time you actually ate, and do you have any idea how to order food?”
Me: “Yeah, she’d definitely have no idea how to use GrubHub, or SpoonRocket, or whatever fucking food app is hot right now.”
Jason: “Yes, this is true, and beyond using it, do you even know that these apps exist?”
Me: “Do you even know what a grocery store is?”
Kara: “Georgia’s been around long enough to pick up grocery stores, I think.”
Jason: “Yeah, the concept of a grocery store isn’t hard. ‘Food store.’”
Kara: “Georgia knows that food has to eat.”
*silence*
Jason: “…You know, it’s moments like these that really convince me Kara has the right clan.”
Me: “JASON! JASON! THE SETTITES ARE REAL AND THEY HAVE A PODCAST!”
Cameron: “The best thing would be if the phone has a heavy-metal ringtone and it just keeps playing during the action sequence.”
Jason: “…That is exactly what happens. Colleen, what’s Tom’s ringtone?”
Me: “…’Thunderstruck.’”
