Tony, I just wanted to let you know I got called into the hospital for a few hours but I will still be there with pies in hand.

So far I'm planning on pumpkin, strawberry rubbarb and chocolate mousse. Is there any other type of pie people might like?

Henry, just for you I'm going to attempt a classic blood pudding.

Please don't.

I thought you said it was something you could eat? When you were in Tony's body.

It was something I could imagine eating while I was in Tony's body. I am on a strictly liquid diet in my own.

placeholdery goodness

[thatsmyjob]

Oh, hmmm. I just thought it could be something you'd be able to enjoy with the rest of the guests when they had dessert.

I'm not bringing you a pastry chef.

\o/

[stokerwasahack]

Thank you for the consideration, but I will be dining alone. I find it rude for someone with my requirements to eat in public.

Hee!

I'm beginning to think that's a vampire thing. Eric always made it private.

[stokerwasahack]

He was not completely useless.

[thatsmyjob]

I actually miss him.

[stokerwasahack]

I cannot say the same.

From what little I have learned, it's a territory thing, right?

It's interesting actually, Lincoln did a study on serial killers and territoriality. I helped him write it.

[stokerwasahack]

This is nature, not psychology. Vampires who share territory risk their survival and the safety of those around them.

[thatsmyjob]

It's not entirely different with serial killers, according to the study, though of course in their case safety of others is the last thing on their mind.

Still, they need control of the hunting ground and in most cases desire complete control over the fear of the populace and the attention of law enforcement. Having another serial killer on their territory poaches these three factors and so the more dominant will either destroy the weaker or sublimate him into a submissive partner.

Which is probably too much information in a creepy way. As I said, I helped Lincoln write that book.

[stokerwasahack]

We kill intruders if we cannot negotiate acceptable boundaries.

[thatsmyjob]

And in that alone you would be far more evolved than most serial killers, thus less dangerous than what man can inflict upon himself.

[stokerwasahack]

Perhaps.

I should get started on the pies and getting myself cleaned up. It was nice talking to you, Henry.
