Dracula had no intention of helping people with the fire regardless of how much trouble they were obviously having. He was there for the oysters, which he had failed to otherwise find and so desperately needed for his coffin, not for the town. When he arrived at Twinklebat he was surprised to find out that the problem was not the plague but the spreading fire.

And so he stood in the shadow casted by one of the house still intact, moving aside whenever an oyster or a person carrying a bucket of water ran by, waiting for the whole mess to calm down so he could collect the leftovers.

may I?

"Fire! Fire!"

What started out as a peaceful visit to Twinklebat turned out to be a disaster. He didn't know what to do. He never saw a burning town before. And he definitely never saw burning oysters start fires before. But he just couldn't stand there. He rushed towards a store, asked for a bucket, anything to hold water really... and was panicking so much that he got... a basinful of water. Good enough.

And he went on, trying to help somehow. In some way. Almost bumping into--

"Mister, what are you standing there for? There's a fire!"

sorry, length fail orz

He raised and eyebrow, staring at the boy. He stepped aside as if indicating him to go on, with as much disinterest as he the situation allowed.

"Yes, I can see that" he pointed at an oyster running by. Since that one in particular was almost extinguished, he just kicked it when ti got to close and shrugged. "... frankly, I'm here for them, not the town."

No problem. o/

"Eh?" But the people.... and the buildings...

"You're here for the oysters?"

"I need oysters for... something personal" He didn't feel like explaining the need for a coffin all over again "And I figured that once they were done here I could pick them up"
