For lastvoyages: Journal Entry 48 [video]

[nolongerhollow]

[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.

[A chitter of pleasure.] Splendid. Delightful. Our Chief is useful after all, he has run off, he still has his uses.

[She sounds absolutely friendly about it.]

[nolongerhollow]

Oh, I imagine he will be back fairly soon relative your time. Time works a bit differently here.

I would invite you to my home but I...must rebuild it first.

[bat_hug]

Has he not said? Shocking. Not to be borne. Secretive. We have parted ways with our Chief before he came away to your untidy ship. He is missed. Do not tell him so. It will go to his head.

You must visit. In time perhaps also I will? Are there juicy thermals, this is the question.

[nolongerhollow]

He has? Oh, I did not know.

Well, that is a bit of a surprise, yes. But it won't deter me from coming around!

[bat_hug]

Splendid. Send word.

The chief hasn't got a Cousin. The Cousin will get us a message.

[She trills approvingly at him.]

Two away.
