The Demonic Adviser

It has been quite a while since last time, so the Devil once more has a sign on her table in a 'central' booth, where it will be the most visible.

A living vampire chuckles a little as she walks by and sees the sign.

"At least you're honest about the consequences of your advice."

[7twistedwishes]

"I am honest about the possible consequences of my advice: I am offering it free, and I am not offering any kind of warranty along." The Devil flashes a smirk. "Something bothering you? Have a seat, I am a good listener."

[living_vamp]

Her leather pants creak as she takes a seat across from The Devil and orders herself a soda.

"I'm pretty alright, actually. Biggest problem is the woman I live with is driving me crazy."

Vampire+Object of Affection-Sex=Frustrated Vampire.

[7twistedwishes]

Oh, Lucifer can understand that perfectly. "Relationships are never easy... what is the problem, as you see it?"

[living_vamp]

"Okay, so, I'm a vampire. Vampires are very pheromone-based, right? Like predator animals. I...really care for Rachel a lot, and I respect her feelings...poor girl has convinced herself she's straight when she...really just isn't completely."

And that's the honest truth. Rachel is not anything but bisexual, no matter what she tries to tell herself.

"And well, I've got to protect her from the other vamps in the territory, but..she really doesn't make it easy."

Understatement. Before Ivy pointed a few things out to her, Rachel was a big accidental vamp-whore, without being bitten.

[7twistedwishes]

"Ah, she is in denial, but her behavior exposes her... and she does not realize how strong is the 'tasty snack, free sample' vibe she is giving?" The Devil has a mental image of someone going for a walk in the veld wearing a fashionable raw steak coat...

[living_vamp]

"Yeeeah, that's pretty much it in a nutshell. I'm going to have to go home and deal with at least one of them, because of it soon. She's cute, she's sweet, but she's trouble."

Lots.

[7twistedwishes]

"There is also a way to make her 'wake up' to the situation? Or it seems like she will not snap out of it short of a near-death disaster?" The Devil does not have much sympathy for the clueless, unfortunately.

[living_vamp]

"I think she's starting to figure it out. I gave her a book, basically a guide on how to date vampires...for a 'what-not-to-do' handbook, and she's getting a little better. She's stopped wearing my clothes."

Which...uuuuuurgh, turned Ivy on.

[7twistedwishes]

"It is good that she did? If I were dating a woman and not a man, I would love lending her clothes..." The Devil grins. "Well, besides, the book, what you can feasibly do?"

[living_vamp]

"We're not dating," she answers, a little on the hurried side.

Which is part of the problem.

"So, the pheromone thing...she wears my stuff, and smells like me, and she already smells delicious on her own...it's just...that much harder to keep my hands to myself."

[7twistedwishes]

Oh, BBQ sauce on the steak coat.

"Oh, I see." The Devil nods. "Indeed, you smell delicious too..."

"Did you try the puppy-eyes-and-meek-kiss approach?"

[living_vamp]

She smiles a little, the faintest hint of sharp canine teeth showing.

"Thank you. You smell pretty scrumptious yourself."

She doesn't generally refer to people in this sort of manner. She shakes herself a little and reaches for her soda.

"That's not really my style. We run a bounty hunter business together, along with our third partner, Jenks. I'm also the...ur, inactive," yes, inactive's a good term for it, "scion for the Master in the area."

[7twistedwishes]

The Devil nods again, pondering. "Interesting how places and people change, but the situations remain much the same."

She waves over a waitrat and orders a dirty martini.

[living_vamp]

She nods, "Yeah. I think a lot of situations are pretty universal, no matter how people want to think they're so much more unique."

[7twistedwishes]

"So... you plan to make other vampires give your honey some space? Until she comes out of denial at least?"
