[ 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.

[He's the exact type of asshole to notice this immediately, so:]

You’re half-vampire and your name is the ananym of Dracula?

[That's a little on the nose there, buddy.]

[The speaker is a young woman, deathly pale and dressed in clothes that are if not quite so archaic, very old fashioned. And she's obviously amused, in a dry kind of way.]

Well, at least one person on this station will be assured.

[Since Jake panicked when he thought she was a vampire.]

But I don't know why anyone would even want that. A fork would be far more hygienic.

a pity text doesn't translate tone, because this would sound rather dry:

Have many people requested you bite them?

I mean, didn't need to, but since you brought it up...

[Poison Ivy has a dry tone that makes it hard to tell if she's being serious or sarcastic.]

How do you end up half vampire?

[ she is eating when the video clicks on, some sort of cracker. ] You know, I don't remember if we ever had a vampire before.

[ if this were a year ago, she'd be more disbelieving, but apparently traveling to a huge variety of worlds leaves you more open minded about the supernatural! ]

The forms are mostly for fun and Newt's entertainment at any rate.

sounds like something a full vampire would say before biting somebody. [ He's kidding. Is he kidding? He might be kidding... it's unclear. ] jk jk jk, i've got a vampire friend back home, it's cool [ See?? Look how much he's kidding. ]

how did you wind up being halfsies, though? i didn't know that was even a thing, homie.

[ You have to be kidding… ]

So, what is a “half” vampire, exactly?

[ It was the first of many questions, but half vampire kind of contradicted everything Guillermo knew about vampires and where they came from. he had to know. ]

Good evening, Alucard. I...am concerned that you must make all of these disclaimers.

[While he picks text, Aleksander does appreciate the wardrobe choice.]

Our legends speak of those cursed with bloodlust. The undead. Upiórs. Wurdulacs. Then again, our legends are mostly exaggerated fairy tales or outright lies.

The name thing's been more than covered already. That's another common thread through many of our worlds, I guess.

Does the "no blood" thing mean you just eat what a human does, then?

[Half vampire. ALRIGHT. SURE! Why wouldn't that be a thing, after everything else he's seen? He is decidedly NOT going to panic about it, not going to panic about it, NOT going to panic--]

You know, if I'd seen this message a few months back... I probably would have assumed you were just some crazy fan of that Stoker fellow.

[Ha. Hahah. Wavering attempt at some humor??? Hoo-boy.]

Whatever, dorkula! I didn't want you to bite me anyway!

Typical day on the network!]
