Jessica was beyond excited. In the days leading up to the RV trip, she barely shut up about it. Even as she boarded the RV Laura had procured for their adventure and took the shotgun seat, she could barely stop talking. It was a beautiful day in the City, and the weather reports for their destination in Southern New Jersey called for blue skies and sunshine. It would be perfect beach-going weather, and it was bound to be the perfect summer night!

That term is the nearest equivalent I've been able to find, yes.

[ though the whole "avoiding the sun" thing she's read in books so far is positively BAFFLING to her! ]

[girlverine]

I have never met one before.

[Which was odd, considering all the various strange people she had met back home.]

Rockslide told me that the vampires invaded Utopia, back on our own world, shortly after I was brought here.

[glowsferatu]

Oh. But for what reason would they seek such an action?

[ the only real vampire she's ever met is herself, any other exposure to the subject was all in romance novels ]

[girlverine]

I don't know. The only things I have read about vampires there is that they are not especially friendly.

[glowsferatu]

Well, I'd certainly like to lodge my own personal disagreement with that!

[girlverine]

I assume vampires are not the same on every world. Yours is obviously different.

[glowsferatu]

Well, I have a rather...limited experience with even the ones from my own world, quite frankly.

[girlverine]

One of them must have created you, though.

[glowsferatu]

[ blink blink blink blink blink ]

What do you mean? Like the "turning" in your human vampire literature?

I'm afraid I recall nothing of the sort!

[girlverine]

How did you become a...'rainbow drinker' then?

[glowsferatu]

[ she looks away nervously. the fact of the matter is that she has no idea whatsoever. was it a latent quality of her admittedly rare caste? was it the result of dc scratch's machinations? t best she has suspicions, but no real answers ]

I...I don't know, really. After dying, I had a dream where a friend told me, among other things, that I was undergoing a transformation. Shortly after, I awoke to find my fangs sunk deep into the corpse of a dear friend.

I hadn't killed her, of course! She...died shortly before I did.

[girlverine]

[Laura considers this for a moment, eyes shifting away.]

Sometimes it is better to not know.

[glowsferatu]

[ yup, distant gazes all around on this one ]

Perhaps you're right.

[girlverine]

It doesn't matter.

[Laura looks back.]

We cannot help what we are, only what we do.

[glowsferatu]

[ she meets laura's gaze again slowly ]

Yes, I believe I could agree with that. We're defined more by our actions and how we relate to others, but also by how we define ourselves, I would imagine.
