"Well, I'm not cranky," Rachel said. "Though you'd think I should be, considering some of the things I'm going through..."

She shook her head. "But no, I try to keep in good spirits- there's no sense in being less than pleasant with things, as long as you can be."

Master V nodded. "Words to live by. Want I should walk you on out, so's nobody assumes you're looking for an employee?"

Rachel smiled, and got to her feet. "That would be very nice of you. Thanks."

He was really rather gentlemanly, for a vampire.

"Trixie, I'll be back in a minute," Master V said, and got up as well, to walk Rachel on out.

"Thank you," Rachel said, and started heading out. "You know, I don't even know your name - all the reports just call you 'Master V'. What's the V stand for?"

She thought it could be Vampire, but there was a chance it was something different, like a name. Couldn't hurt to ask.

"Heh. Nobody asks about that. But long time ago, I was called Vincent," Master V said. "But whenever somebody sees a black person around here, they assume they're a rapper or a thug with a cool name, so I eventually decided to go with Master V instead. Sounds better. Inspires respect. Ain't nobody gonna walk up and salute a brother named Vincent."

"Do you mind if I call you Vincent?" Rachel asked. "It's a nice name."

"Don't make it too big a habit," Master V advised. "But y'all can call me Vincent Valentine for all you want as long as you ain't gonna start wreckin' the place."

Rachel laughed. "You like video games?" she asked. She'd played a few of them with Reba, and recognized the reference.

"I've played a few," Master V admitted. "Gotta do something during those fourteen-hour days when you ain't tired."
