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.

Then it survived.

[ who would have thought? certainly not alucard. ]

[oiorpata]

Not without hardships. But the same could be said for a lot of that area.

[ananym]

It is unfortunately an area where hardships congregate.

Still, I knew people who cared. I am relieved for their sake.

[oiorpata]

Always has been.

[ personally, andy thinks borders are bullshit. ]

We don't have vampires in my version of Earth though, so I can't tell you exactly how similar it might have been.

[ananym]

That's all right.

Give me a few centuries and I'll probably find out for myself.

[oiorpata]

I forgot longevity sometimes comes with vampires too.

Even when you're only half?

[ananym]

Vampires only die when they're killed.

Since I've inherited most of their physiology, that should hold true for myself.

[oiorpata]

How old are you now then?

[ananym]

Twenty years. I am rather young.

[oiorpata]

[ A BABY. ]

You're not even close to the old part yet.

[ananym]

No. I grew up fast, but I am still considered young.

[oiorpata]

You'll be young for a while, so enjoy it while you can.

[ananym]

Is it so enjoyable, being young?

[oiorpata]

I suppose it depends on what those years look like. But you should try.

[ananym]

I cannot say I'm all that eager for it.

[oiorpata]

Which one, enjoying your youth or getting old as shit?

[ananym]

Both, I suppose.

I planned to sleep off the centuries. I still might.

[oiorpata]

Now that sounds like the ideal fucking way to get older.

[ananym]

It's not uncommon for vampires to take long rests.

And there is very little I'm concerned about in this world.

[oiorpata]

And you personally don't even have to drink blood. Doesn't sound like a bad deal for longevity compared to others.

[ananym]

No, I have been fortunate in regards to my biology.

[oiorpata]

The napping sounds like the best part. No offense.

[ananym]

[ that makes him chuckle. ]

I've been sorely tempted of late.

[oiorpata]

I'm big on giving in to temptation, so you probably shouldn't listen to me when I say go for it.

[ananym]

It never hurts to hear. I tend to shy away from temptation personally.
