Really? I didn’t think that was possible.
[she’s pretty casual about it, though. and all right, she’s going with the deep red! she holds out a hand and starts painting those long nails.
his question gets a one-word answer.]
A vampire.

A vampire.
[lenore chuckles at that.]
We are.
Honestly, I never imagined I’d get so many volunteers. The humans here are much more open-minded than I’m used to.

[hey, she’s finished painting a hand! she holds it up to admire.]
Only? As in...?

Oh, I eat. Not sure I want to think about shrimp after recent events, but... I enjoy a good glass of wine. As well as anything else that humans eat or drink.
There’s no real nourishment in it, but a variety of flavours is nice to experience.

Oh good! No one should miss the sour worms. You should try the sour worms, at least until they burn off the top layer of your tongue.
[hmmmmmmmm.]
But listen, I understand the need for variety. [...] If you want something different I suppose I couldn't turn down any new experience.

A new experience?
[lenore glances up with a grin as she gets started on the other hand.]
Are we still talking about sour worms?

Oh, yes... your profile did mention blood magic. Ordinarily, that would be a risk, but it seems to be fine here.
Consider me interested.
[she’s smiling as she’s painting away at her own claw-nails.]
We might need to wait for these to dry, first.

I have three, in fact. Morana's the one who's always experimenting with bold new fashions and the like. Sometimes she looks like she's from a completely different era. Carmilla's well-suited to bold styles as well, but she has more of a classic look. And Striga... would probably look at me funny if I tried to talk to her about any of this.
[and her other hand is done! she's checking them out.]

[Molly is just listening to the sister talk, suddenly looking very wrapped up in this talk about families? that's. so deeply sweet.]
Must miss them a lot. [...] Know I've started to get a bit homesick myself. Which is funny, considering I don't have a home.

[he gets a sympathetic smile, and a nod.]
I do.
If it’s not too personal... a home lost, or a nomadic life to begin with?
I do.

Not too personal at all. Bit of a wanderer. Travelled with a circus for a while, and then an adventuring party. So I suppose not lack of a home as much as a moving one. This is probably the longest I've ever been in one place, actually. Bit cramped for my liking, to be honest, and after a while you do have to keep meeting the eyes of everyone you've ... y'know, with.
[lenore can’t help but laugh.]
That’s quite the boast.
I wish I could say I have the same problem, but I haven’t been with anyone who... is still around, to meet eyes with. [she glances away. yeah that’s kind of a downer, actually.] Oh. That makes it sound like I might be cursed, doesn’t it?

[she gives him a long look, her lips curling into a smile.]
On the contrary. Your counsel on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Another new experience to try, perhaps?
