I had a dream last night that
Edward Cullen was explaining the "Four Species of Vampires" to me. Now, I can't really remember exactly, but I think they were:
I. Nosferatu
~Living corpses
~More like zombies that drink blood; mindless but fast and ruthless
~Born, not made
~Loners
~Live in abandoned buildings/crypts
~Cannot go out during the daylight; don't sleep, but hide away in their lairs
~Bite to kill; venom that kills no matter what
~Fangs are their only teeth
II. Shape-shifter (most like Dracula)
~Can go out during the daylight, but somewhat painful (prefer the dark/night)
~True form looks like a Nosferatu, but can change their appearance to be more attractive to prey or to one kind of animal
~Bite is venomous; if you don't lose a lot of blood, you become one
~Retractable fangs
III. Nocturnal (most like Anne Rice's vampires)
~Cannot go out during the daylight (comatose sleep during the day)
~Look exactly as they did when created, only with paler/more luminous skin and more vibrant eyes
~Fanged, but still have all their other teeth (usually)
~Must drink vampiric blood to become a vampire
IV. Demonic (most like Stephanie Meyer's vampires)
~Can go out during the daylight with no problem
~Don't sleep
~Look exactly as they did when created, only with paler/more luminous skin and more vibrant eyes
~Retractable fangs
~Bite is venomous; if you don't lose a lot of blood, you become one
A rather funny scene last night. One of the directing interns is That Guy. You know - cute without being really aware of it and an ártist!, so he's interesting. Well, yesterday, he was surrounded by a harem of actresses, just silently begging to be allowed onto his "casting couch". And he was just completely oblivious. He's going on about his ideas about doing a dark production of Midsummer, and they are all hanging on his every word, yes-ing him to death, with their boobs all at attention. And he's just going on and on. It was hilarious. Both Jason and Appy texted me back if he was gay, but I don't think so. My gaydar is usually really, really good, and it doesn't fire off with him. I could be wrong, of course, but I think he's just A Tortured Ártist who doesn't have time to pay attention to the sexual advances of such petty mortals.
Hmmm...maybe I am a Lizzy Bennett, after all.
