lastvoyages: Journal Entry 48 [video]
[Dracula is sitting at his desk, which has a substantial pile of library books and papers on it. The candles are all lit and the fire stoked, giving a good view of him. He is in his shirtsleeves and a smart dark blue vest in very subtle brocade. His expression is fairly pleasant, and his eyes, once vacant, now sparkle with curiosity and liveliness.]
When he left a friend of mine bequeathed me with a substantial portion of his motion picture collection. Of course, they involved a number of vampire movies, most of which are quite amusing. These, however, I have not seen yet. [He picks up a jewel case marked MST3K]. And apparently they are very amusing indeed.
Besides making the collection available for Movie Nights, I was wondering if anyone would like to join me for a viewing in the eighth floor common room once the proper arrangements are made?
Oh, and hello to any newcomers. I am Count Vladislaus Dracula...although chances are that I am not the man whom you associate with that name.

No, I am...
[How to explain it in scientific terms?]
My people have a human base, but bear a...what is the word...symbiont which empowers us but comes at a cost. Side effects include sensitivity to sunlight and drastic alterations of our internal systems.

[If you can trust the translator-- or hear the superaudible range-- she sounds very playful.]
I do not the medical complexities grasp. But you are excellent company. You have excellent manners. [She unfurls her wing-- vast, to support a slightly-under-human sized bulk in the middle, and taps a key with her wing-knuckles, pulling a few files that play out as low-volume ultrasonic; informational.] Do you fly as well as hang?
no subject
Thank you very much. [The corners of his eyes crinkle.] As races we do seem to have characteristics in common. I do have a form of flight, yes, though it does not involve wings anymore.

[One of her dark, unfocused eyes blinks alone. It may be a wink. She may have had an itch.]

Yes yes. Come visit; we have deep caves, room for guests. I have many grandchildren. They are young and know where the thermals have shifted. The will show you to play.
[You're adorable, right-side-up no-winged hominid! You should certainly visit.]
no subject
So yes, I shall ask about specifics from your crewmate when I am ready, and send you a message.
no subject
[She sounds absolutely friendly about it.]
no subject
I would invite you to my home but I...must rebuild it first.
no subject
You must visit. In time perhaps also I will? Are there juicy thermals, this is the question.
no subject
Well, that is a bit of a surprise, yes. But it won't deter me from coming around!
no subject
The chief hasn't got a Cousin. The Cousin will get us a message.
[She trills approvingly at him.]
Two away.
