018 - These Are The Lives You'd Love To Lead - Video/Action

[worldofourown]

[There is a vampire leaning by The Raven's entrance. His posture is like a snake's. Nothing stirring but a glint in the eye and a flicking tongue-tip. All gathered bloodlust waiting for its moment.]

The next brat to sneak in, will be summarily tossed out.

In pieces. 

[A smile. Bright, and entirely without warmth.]

Don't try it. And keep your pitiful bribes to yourself.


[OOC: Grrr. Noisy whippersnappers! NO DRINKS FOR YOU! By which I mean, anyone's totally free to come waltzing in - and stir up trouble. Just keep in mind, Karl may toss you out. His fondness for eating teenage girls notwithstanding, he has work to do, after all! Replies will be sporadic, as my internet is being a bitch!]

I don't think this will work very well with school kids. Unless you're going for reverse psychology.

[worldofourown]

...

You're cursed too, Kira?

[sympathyforme]

[He is, but he's the ultimate liar, so he doesn't even react to Karl knowing his name. But then, he's also cursed in ways that have nothing to do with the City.]

Why d'you ask?

[worldofourown]

Because it's in the air today like a particularly foul plague.

[sympathyforme]

Sensitive, aren't you?

[worldofourown]

Only when it comes to brats.

[sympathyforme]

See, I dislike people in general.

[worldofourown]

Who could blame you?

Most are intolerable.

[sympathyforme]

I'm pretty sure a lot of people could blame me. Can't say I care.

What's so special about that bar of yours?

[worldofourown]

Good attitude.

...The people it caters to.

[sympathyforme]

You sound like you're trying to avoid saying that you work at a gay bar.

[worldofourown]

Would you run away if I said it was?

[sympathyforme]

Sure. Sexuality is terrifying.

[worldofourown]

For a novice, maybe.

[sympathyforme]

I suppose. So, no, takes more to make me run.

[worldofourown]

I've good news and bad news for you.

Good news, it's not a gay bar. Bad news, you can't enter without appropriate ID.

[sympathyforme]

M-hm, who knows. Maybe that first thing disappoints me.

[worldofourown]

I'm shocked and disappointed.

[No, he's not.]

[sympathyforme]

And here I live for your approval.

[worldofourown]

Good to see a young man who knows his place.

[sympathyforme]

My father raised me well.
