Hi there.
I'll keep this short and sweet, cause I'm sure you guys hate to read as much as I do, I have a quick question for everyone: What's your blood type?

This isn't for some compatibility thing.
I mean I guess.
I'm just curious.

It's neither of those two things, but I'm happy to explain my preferences if you're curious. Blood doesn't taste the same for every vampire, you know, and even if I like a certain type there's something about the blood of children that I absolutely detest. If I can I'll avoid it entirely.

Otherwise, I'd say A or O is my favorite.

Nah. I'm bonded to someone so I can't just go drinking from anyone I please.
But if there's people offering it's rude of me to say no, yeah?

[What an odd conversation this has become.]

I'd say everyone has their own preferences, but that feels crass when children are involved.

That being said, if it's consensual, then I guess there's nothing to worry about. You don't ever lose your mind and go on a bloodlust spree or anything, do you?

[eusford]

There's plenty of vampires with terrible morals, unfortunately.

Not unless I'm starving. There's also the exception of if I lose too much blood, but it'd have to be the same amount as tearing my heart out of my chest.

[teradaya]

There's plenty of PEOPLE with terrible morals, I hate to say. It doesn't really matter what you are.

How often do you starve or lose your blood like that? See, I'm a guy who isn't fond of violence so forgive me if I sound paranoid. I just want to make sure everyone here stays safe.

[eusford]

I get it. I'm sure if I was human I'd be just as paranoid knowing that there's a monster here that survives off of blood.

I need blood every three days, and it's not often that anyone charges at my chest. Plus I've been here for a few months now so everything should remain going smoothly as long as my supplier doesn't disappear.

[teradaya]

Anything that poses any sort of threat will always make someone paranoid. It just depends on how well that thing can be handled or controlled.

You're clearly not a thing, though, and it seems like your system has been steady enough, so it's cruel to expect you to fit into some perfect little ideal. If we're honest with ourselves, nothing is ever truly perfect anyway. But do you have someone else who would step in to take your "supplier's" place if they do disappear? I think that's important not just for everyone else's peace of mind and safety, but also your own.

...

Why is it that it sounds like you're trying to be understanding of me?
Did Guren tell you to say all of this?

[teradaya]

Because I am? We could all make assumptions about each other and act on them out of foolishness, but then where would we end up? In my experience, talking things out tends to help people come to some understanding and then work things out, even if they've held animosity toward each other beforehand. I don't see why this should be any different.

And I've never met Guren so, no. He didn't tell me to say anything.

[eusford]

This is a lot to take in, to be honest.
But then again maybe I'm just so used to how things are back in my world, it's not exactly common for humans to approach vampires and not immediately want to kill us off. And while it's understandable to some extent it's also really inconvenient dealing with everything after...

But you should still be careful of me despite that.

[teradaya]

Unfortunately, I think that's just going to forever be one of mankind's flaws. Don't get me wrong, I'm not all that excited about your existence, but as long as we're all good little boys and girls and stay on our best behavior, then we'll at least be able to coexist.

Uh oh, are you threatening me?

[eusford]

You really didn't have to add the "little" part in that...

It's not a threat. If anything it's just telling you to be cautious, in case anything does go a little south.
