[ Cheryl is sick. despite that, she's done her hair and makeup and dressed herself in a red silk robe. a lot of effort went into her appearance, but it does little to hide the fact that she's unwell. she looks tired. at home she was a pro at snapchat, and she holds the camera out at arms length. all that's missing is the puppy filter! ]

By now you've all heard of the great tragedy that's befallen us. I was caught right in the middle of everything, an innocent bystander in someone's very cruel plan to shake us all to the core. I don't scare easily and I don't wilt, but I could use your help in this trying time.

First: obviously i am confined to bed until I recover. You can entertain me by chatting with me and telling me your stories. Make sure they aren't boring.

And secondly: If you're able-bodied, perhaps you can avenge me. [ she pauses. smiles. ] Us. It's the right thing to do.

[ and as she ends the video: ] Hashtag Olympia Strong. [ yes, that's right. hashtag. this is Cheryl Blossom, after all. ]

So now there's a bunch of sub-terrain vampires playing nanny to human children?

[ seems weird but whatever ]

[eusford]

I call them livestock.

Actually before our worlds supposedly got destroyed I basically adopted a whole squad of children so you're not too far off the mark. I guess.
Making sure they didn't get themselves killed sure sucked.

[sweetwater]

Livestock??? You ate them???

[eusford]

Ate them? No. Drank their blood? Unfortunately.

I'm not fond of children's blood, but I wasn't in any rush to die either.

[sweetwater]

Ew!

This is not a good story.

[eusford]

Unless you're a vegetarian it's really hypocritical to think that's gross.

And you said not to make it boring, no specifics on whether or not it be good.

[sweetwater]

I don't eat people. It's different.

[eusford]

But you eat cattle and pork, because it's necessary to survive right?
I'm doing the same thing.

[sweetwater]

I feel like we're both speaking the same language but you're not making much sense.

[eusford]

It's only difficult for you to understand because I'm assuming you're human.
Which I get, you're all very simpleminded folk.

[sweetwater]

I have a 4.0.

[eusford]

You had a 4.0, your world is dead in case that happened to slip your mind. Your level of intelligence doesn't matter much anymore.

How about this? Say you turned into a creature that required human blood, would you just refuse to adapt and die? Or would you survive?

[sweetwater]

Maybe I would only drink the blood of people who deserved it.

[eusford]

For centuries? I really doubt it.

It's not like I drink everyone around me dry, either, keeping them alive allows them to be of use later. And gathering a small circle of people willing isn't difficult in a place like this because of the people who wanna be helpful.

[ Which is stupid but he's not complaining. ]

[sweetwater]

You mean the blood donations?

[eusford]

They're kinda connected by name.

You see for me I like drinking from the source more than I do a glass.
And it seems a few people here don't really mind having to explain a wound on their neck.

[sweetwater]

A city full of people with vampire fetishes. How lucky for you.

[eusford]

Don't describe it like that, thanks.

And even if they did have one I wanna live my long life being oblivious to it.

[sweetwater]

Okay, but you have to wonder...

[eusford]

I don't want to.

I'm an eight hundred year old vampire, I've got other things to think about!

[sweetwater]

Like what? Skin care?

[eusford]

Fortunately I don't have to bother with that.

I plan out my next hundred year nap.
