A Bad Bar Joke [OOC]

♦

Lucas blinked.

They hadn't been here that long, had they? When did she have time to get that? And where had she gotten that from?

"...Thank you?" he hesitantly replied.

Never underestimate the power of Knowledge For Serving. 'Tis strong.

"Of course. Let me know whenever you need more and ill get it to you." She involuntarily yawns, then looks out the window towards the front of the ship. "It's getting late. I'm going to head to bed. You sleep well." and with that she leaves, politely waving goodbye as she shuts the door to Orvin's room.

I always appreciate her lovely cadence? Short sentences, to the point, it's neat ^_^

and the camera pans over to a grown man placing 7 sugar cubes in his teacup.

...I did not expect a direct mention of the camera. I kinda see why, though, given that we got one Cool Gal leaving, therefore unable to see the seven sugar cubes.

...That is a lot of sugar cubes.


♦

Lucas, unfortunately, was too caught up in staring at the pint of blood to notice that Orvin had put a ridiculous amount of sugar in his cup. Lucas still felt uneasy about drinking the blood, but he also really did want some tea...

Have you considered blood tea?

Uncorking the bottle, he carefully tipped some of it into his mouth. It was a hesitant gesture. The moment the blood touched his tongue, however, Lucas quickly realized how good it tasted. He downed it all in one big gulp, and only became aware of how quickly he had drank it afterwards.

Okay so first humans smell good, and now their blood is, like, godly. ...Not gonna lie, it really gives me the itch to write different descriptions with regards to how each type of blood tastes, like some parody anime called Vampire Connaisseur. I'd call it that because connoisseur is actually a bastardization of the French word "connaisseur", AKA "someone who knows", WHICH BY THE WAY ISN'T EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE USED JUST FOR FOOD, WHY DOES ENGLISH KEEP DOING THIS WITH FRENCH WO-
the point is it would be a hit anime. I'll see if I can conceptualize that.

...Where was I. Ah, yes; I'm hyped for blood taste descriptions later.

What was going to happen to him now? Being a vampire hadn't been all that different than being a human so far, but what if human blood made things different? What if he became less of a person somehow, or just couldn't stop himself from wanting more and more and more-

He pulled his legs up onto the bed again, this time resting his elbows against his knees as he held his head in his hands.

Okay so he's gonna need a hug soon, but I'm glad Mage's bringing that up. Like he didn't suddenly became a new species with a new craving, right, he's gonna need to adjust mentally.

Glorious♪

♦

Other vampires have had reactions regarding its taste, and their body is more designed to process it, so it can be a bit overwhelming if they've only ever had the blood of livestock.

And I appreciate how pragmatic he is about it! Also, hey, worldbuilding!

"Lucas," He says, reaching a hand to his end of the table. "Are you okay?"

"Just having an identity crisis over here, don't mind me♪"

♦

"I'm..." he said, and he wanted to say that he was fine,

but he's not really fine, but he just can't get into it because they would never understan-

Sorry. Had to. XD

(Which, when Lucas thought about it in the very back of his mind, didn't make any sense. Why was there human blood ready to give to a vampire, and why would Orvin be so okay with it?)

Oh you should totes ask him, fam.
