1st Blood

[That mischievous little telephone just happens to be hanging off the hook, as the sound of a woman falling straight out of the bed is heard.]

Wh...who's this?

[There is then a long pause, the sound of bare feet shuffling on the carpet.]

Oh? Where have I ended up? I don't remember coming here...what a nice picture...but I don't know these people

*For some reason Len is on the phone and she can totally hear you. But since she doesn't talk she'll be hanging up and finding your front door.*

[makemebreakfast]

[After a long moment...Arcueid finally answers the door. She was kind of back and forth on answering...as this isn't her house...but she does so anyway.]

Oh, it's you! Hello, Len.

[strayquiet]

*She stares back.*

[makemebreakfast]

...is there something on my face?

[Arcueid starts rubbing her hands on her face, trying to see if she's got something stuck to it.]

[Margot was just trying to enjoy her cornflakes when she hears mysterious ticking bumping noises and a woman's voice from the other room -- it doesn't sound like the drone's that was there the night before.

...And what do you know, it's not!

Your new daughter is just going to stare at you, rather aghast. A puppet mother was something she could deal with; a sentient one? Entirely different ballpark.]

[makemebreakfast]

[And Arcueid stares right back, giving her a nervous smile.]

[followyouthere]

[Margot makes a strange crossing motion over her chest -- it is not a particularly nice looking motion.]

Where's the puppet? Why are you in the pictures now?

[makemebreakfast]

[Arcueid makes an odd face at the crossing motion, but says nothing of it.]

Puppet? I don't know why I'm in the pictures. Maybe you can explain that to me.

[artwithknives]

I know that voice.

[makemebreakfast]

I know that voice too...

Who is this again?

[artwithknives]

You idiot. It's me, Shiki.

[makemebreakfast]

Oh yea, you!

I remember you!

You're here too?

[crawlininmytome]

Do you know how stupid you sound right now?

[makemebreakfast]

Ha! Not stupider than you, cuz I managed to flush you out.

[crawlininmytome]

... What are you talking about? You make it sounds like I kidnapped you.

[makemebreakfast]

Oh, you didn't?

[hop_toit_udonge]

... Don't die, you say?

[makemebreakfast]

Well, not that often.

Wait, who is this?

[hop_toit_udonge]

An inquiring mind.

So, could you clarify what you mean?

[makemebreakfast]

What's to clarify?

I don't die often. The last time I died was when Shiki killed me...

Wait, why do you want to know?
