NAME: The Brucolac.
GENDER: Male.
PREFERENCES: Clever. Resilient. Mature. An evening person. Preferably inhuman. Must like tongue.

[waterbearer]

I assume the 'inhuman' condition is meant as a precaution.

[ No hard feelings about being bitten. Though he is rather amused on light of it. ]

And is the evening a sunlight-dependent condition? Or a personal preference.

[ Hi, My name is Kaldur'ahm, and I would like to introduce you to the wonders of undersea living. ]

[vrykolakas]

Precaution, peccadillo. [Handwave. SAME DIFF. ...Ish.]

It's both.

[waterbearer]

Because there are plenty of beautiful places where the sunlight couldn't reach you that are equally as enjoyable. And you, of all people, might actually be able to see some of them.

[ The number of friends/acquaintances that Kaldur can take home without them wearing serious scuba pressure gear can be counted on one hand. ]

Though the night sky over the ocean does have its charms.

Harry isn't here for dating reasons, or at least not dating the Brucolac. "Surviving?"

[vrykolakas]

"Terrible word choice," he informs him cheerfully, leaning back in his seat. "Not buried yet. How about you, anyone caught your eye?"

The Brucolac: somewhat like that one terrible aunt at family gatherings.

Also, yes, he had to say eye. Nice socket-bling, Harry.

[thebreakingwave]

"With a fish hook or otherwise?"

Because that's hilarious and he knows it.

"And, well, I'm not really suited for, er, all this," he says with a vague and expansive gesture that's meant to encompass dating, this event, and possibly life in general. Who knows.

[notavirtue]

Multilingual?

[Or the other kind of tongue?]

[vrykolakas]

Yes, that too.

[notavirtue]

[One mystery solved.]

Why do you prefer someone not of your own species?

[vrykolakas]

[Non-committal humming. Yeah, he does, but that's a different kettle of weird vampir fish.]

Did I say I was human?

[ c: ]

[notavirtue]

[Oh, you're one of those people.]

You did not specify anything. My original question stands.

[vrykolakas]

Common ground. Past experiences. Aesthetic preference. What influences anyone's taste?

[notavirtue]

The ability to procreate with a chosen partner is a common factor. [What was it with aliens wanting to bang other aliens all the time??]

[enthraller]

And how much of that list is based on your...condition?

[hello bruc.]

[vrykolakas]

Half. Less. Depends on your interpretation.

What can I say? I was born to be dead.

[enthraller]

But were you really born that way? I've heard a few different stories about how all that works. Was there a "before"?

[vrykolakas]

There was, briefly, a before. Still, I was never kind in the mornings, nor overly enamoured with humanity.

What sort of stories?

[enthraller]

How your kind is made. Or born, or whatever word you'd like to use. It isn't surprising that there's so much variety, given all the people here from different worlds with equivalent sorts. Some have said it's much like any other race, some say vampir are made from a single bite, some say there's a more complicated process so it can't be done unintentionally.

[vrykolakas]

Ah, yes. In my world, the horror stories told are typically an exaggeration of the contagious threat we pose.

A single bite can do it. But it's a capricious bacteria, difficult to predict.

[enthraller]

[hmmmm. more information is always nice, but not as fun right now. that's not the point of this sort of gathering, is it?]

...So what would your preferences list have been like before all that? Without all the vampir concerns.

[fiercestwarrior]

Must like tongue?

[vrykolakas]

It's a joke.

[Brucolac, you have a shit sense of humour. Just accept it and move on.

He doesn't. Instead he flicks out his gross long snake-tongue and hisses. In a friendly way? With no change of his pleasant and personable expression, he amends:]

It's mostly a joke.

[fiercestwarrior]

[ She does not seem too faced by the display of tongue, though it does make her smile a little. ]

I see. Will you be disappointed if I cannot show a similarly impressive display?

[kilimanjaro]

Like...tongue? [So confused.] I possess one and I am happy to do so?
