We'd be here forever if the subject wholly turned to my views.

I'm not certain anyone would readily offer a vein to me while wolves are prowling amongst us, cher, but your concern is sweet.

[kobes]

I don't mind. We haven't had much chance to talk lately. I'm curious about what you think.

I would. I've done it before.

[perfectionner]

We're one of the only beings that intimately know what it's like to ponder life beyond death. Though, given this place's propensity for resurrection, it allows mortals to experience similarly.

Not for me, you haven't.

[kobes]

I see. Considering it from a mortal perspective, death still seems very intimidating. I'd rather avoid it, if I can.

No, not you. Someone else here.

[perfectionner]

I imagine it also depends on the manner in which you die.

Precisely. It may be a wildly different experience between the two of us.

[kobes]

Yes, I suppose you're right. Especially if you can remember it.

It felt
Helpful. I felt helpful doing it. I wasn't afraid or nervous.

[perfectionner]

There's no need to be afraid. Not with us.

[kobes]

I know. I mean -- I believe you.
That's why I hope we don't go that route this year, accusing vampires simply because of who they are.

There does tend to be a bit of hysteria brewing before somewhat cooler heads prevail.
