Someone, ah, thought that I was a ghost, earlier.

[tilts his head to the side, thinking...]

I guess I could see that. But you've definitely got an aquatic aesthetic going on, to. It's pretty.

Ah, thank you.

...Are you, ah, supposed to be some kind of undead?

Yeah, I'm a vampire. The Western kind, I guess? Feeds on blood, can turn into a bat, that kind of thing.

[opens his mouth to point at the fangs!!]

I, ah, see. I think I have, ah, read about those here...we do not have those where I come from.

[Abyssal Exalted are the closest, but...like he knows that yet.]

Would you, ah, like to trade squares?

Sure! I don't usually do well at these games, so I'm fine with sticking to the more harmless ones on my sheet, just so you know. What about you?

This is, ah, what I have. [shows him his card.]

[looks it over carefully with a hum.]

Telling a lie seems easy enough... oh! Actually, if it's not too weird, can I touch your fangs instead? I'm kinda curious.

You, ah, may, yes. [and opens mouth to reveal his fangs.]

[gently pokes one, careful to not, you know, scratch himself or anything.]

That's really cool. I wonder if the idea is that you're supposed to eat fish, or... well.

[withdraws his finger.]

Fish, or, ah...other things, I imagine. [closes his mouth] ...apparently, ah, I bear a resemblance to a particular kind of creature where I come from.

Oh? I guess it's not surprising that your world would have some kind of... merperson.

The, ah, Raksha, or the Fair Folk. The ones that live in the Western court often...look like this.

...they, ah, eat souls.

[considers this for a moment.]

........ huh! That's-- maybe "cool" isn't the right word, but as a concept it's interesting?

They, ah, come from beyond the borders of the world, where it is pure chaos - they only take form, based on stories, when they come into Creation.

And that's the sort of form they take. Well, I can sort of see the appeal.

I, ah, fortunately never encountered one, though I have...encountered...someone who did deal with them.

Without getting their soul eaten, or...?

They were, ah, selling others to have their souls eaten.

... wow. I feel like I should have guessed, given... [you know, YOUR LIFE. UNLIFE.] ... everything, but that's still depressing.

[SIGHS.]

It is, ah, unfortunately...common. [reaches out to pat Anubis on the head, though.] My world is...not very kind.

And this place isn't, either. But... at least we can be kind to each other.

That is, ah, true. We, ah, can. [Persephone is trying to be, anyway.] ...speaking of, ah, kindness. What may I, ah, help you with?

Oh, right.

[considers his sheet...]

If it's not to much work, you could do my makeup? We've done that before.

That would, ah, be nice. Is there, ah, a particular look you would like, or...?
