[Mina's sitting at a desk of some kind, leaned back, feet propped up and crossed at the ankles. She has a relaxed air, despite putting ample amounts of willpower into ensuring that her image comes through on the feed.

For a moment, she plays with the earring in her right ear (she doesn't wear on in the left), her tongue running over the tips of her teeth.]

Well. Now that we've made it through this sensational ordeal of seeing life through each other's eyes, embracing our differences, and coming together with a good, old-fashioned sense of community. Or whatever it is we did. I suppose now is as good a time as any to inform you all that I am, in fact, a vampire.

Yes. I am a legally certified doctor.

No. I don't feed off of my patients.

Yes. I do drink blood.

No. I don't want yours.

[A pause.]

And no. I don't sparkle.

If any of you have some sort of problem with this, you're welcome to come over to House 18 and kill me. It would certainly relieve the monotony of life. And it seems you have no need for a spare doctor around here. Otherwise, goodnight and do have a pleasant tomorrow.

Yes. Well. Some Kindred are exceedingly Catholic.

[manofiron]

So are some humans. I try not to judge them too harshly either.

[primogen_vampirate]

It can be rather hard.

I'm a near life-long pagan myself.

[manofiron]

Atheist. All my life. Then I met some so called gods, and let me tell you, if I hadn't already been an atheist, I would've been after that.

[primogen_vampirate]

You must be referring to the less amusing Loki.

[manofiron]

And his brother Thor.

[primogen_vampirate]

Yes. I didn't care for him much. He tried to rip me apart.

[manofiron]

Loki? He's like that with everyone. Apparently it's part of his charm. I'm not convinced. How about you?

[primogen_vampirate]

I much prefer our other Loki, all things considered.

[manofiron]

I don't know him very well, but I'm guessing everybody else probably feels the same way you do.

[primogen_vampirate]

I should hope so. I'm bloody brilliant.

[manofiron]

Doctors usually are.

[primogen_vampirate]

Yes. It's true.

[manofiron]

Well, Doc, if you need any help with the human-vampire relations, let me know. Granted, yeah, puny human, what can I do, but I get it. Sort of. What it's like. So if you want help, or need it, it's yours. I never fought off a crazy villager lynch mob, but there's a first time for everything.

[primogen_vampirate]

I'll keep the offer in mind, darling. One can never have too many friends.

[manofiron]

Ain't that the truth.
