[ the feed starts with a very tall man with long blond hair, dressed in archaic clothing and a long black cloak. a large scar is visible on his chest. ]

Greetings.

My name is Alucard. I am a new arrival. No, I did not fill up the "form" as I found the criteria to be quite baffling and useless.

I do need to state that I am a half-vampire. Yes, I have fangs. No, I will not bite you. I do not require blood and you can go about your day in peace.

And no, I will not bite you if you have a kink for vampires. Find a sharp fork instead.

[The thing is it's not even about the survey so much as it's about Newt having made the survey with a genuine earnest desire for people to get to know each other, and his hangups about people making fun of it. He doesn't know how to be defensive on his own behalf, but he can have a little defensiveness for someone else's sake, as a treat.]

Understanding takes time and more shared experiences than some books, sure. But it's a place to start finding common ground. It's not as though people are generally willing to bare their soul to strangers right off the bat.

[ yeah okay, this is clearly vash's issue. alucard doesn't want to have a conversation where he's criticized for not wanting to be like everyone else. ]

Since I have no stake in this, I shall see myself out. It seems celebrating similarities is valued more than differences here.

[ with that, he's hanging up. ]
